Nearly seven years ago, Mr. Charles Ed wards Lester'' wrote a book called “The Na poleon Dynasty; by tho Berkley Men.” It was a popular view-' of tbo history and condi tion of tho Bonaparte famlly—rather sketchy and generalizing, .but graphic and forcible. It was considerably in favor of the Napoleonic race, hut did not commit any misstatements to support tho views it expressed and advocated. The book sold well—the very name was taking —and a now edition, bringing tbo history of Napoleon 111 down, from the coup d’etat of 1851' termination of tho recent wav in Italy, has just been issued by SUEhnoK & Co., tho New York publishers. In such ft Work, rather partisan than actu ally impartial, wo do not look for philosophical truths. Wo find in it, however, some obser vations which are striking, from their common sense and obvious truth. Here is ono of them; “ The Napoleon. Dynasty is, and will bo for some time to come, an inevitable government in France—it is tho only possible compromise between Bourbonism, or tho past, and Repub licanism, or tho future.” .. This is an extremely suggestivo remark. The. flituro of Franco is guessed at in it. Frenchmen, tired of Bourbonism, which was represented by Louis Peilippe quito as much as it had been by Charles the Tenth, rushed into Republicanism, early in 1848, to end in the re-establishment of tho Empiro, at the close of 1852. Few people have any doubt, now-a-days, that the Napoleon Dynasty is secure during the life-time of that astute and remarkable man, the present imperial ruler of France—the actual controller, by mere force of, character and talent, of the destinies of Europe. Ho subdued Russia in the Crimea. Ho drove the-Austrians out of Lombardy. At his name England herself has a paroxysm of fear, and v prepares for invasion. If this man were not possessed of great moderation, so far as he has yet reigned, Europe would now bo involved in a goneral war. It depends wholly oh himself, we are confident, whether or not tho Empire which ho has restored will retain him as its Chief during tho remainder of his life. According to tho usual expectancy of life, tho Emperor Napoleon, now aged 52, has a fair chance of surviving yet 14 years longor. But there la a chance, too, that he may again be involved in war, and as « every bullet has its billet,” a stray shot may bring death to him on the battle-field. His exposuro to danger and escapes from it in tho recent Ita lian battles wore remarkable. Sbouldhelive to see his son old enough to reign, it is proba ble that tho young man would be allowed to wear the crown of this vast, consolidated em pire which tho father is building up. Even though he may not add ono square mile ol territory to the French Empiro, it is apparenl that Napoleon is largely developing its re sources and increasing its wealth. Franco of 1859, under Napoleon, rb contrasted with Franco of 1847, under Louis-Piiilippe, scarcely appears to the mind as the same country. Not alone that Paris has been wonderfully improved, but there is tho evi dent mark of Progress, of Improvement, all over the provincial cities, tho seaports, tho towns, the villages, and even tho hamlets. The sagacity, boldness, and energy, of one man has done this. France docs moro than foltrafe him. France Is proud of him, confides in hiip, looks up to him, and is not disposed to part with him upon light grounds. French men may not exhibit towards Napoleon that adulatory “ loyalty” whichEnglisbmen arc so dreadfully fond of parading before Victoria, in and out of season—as if adulation were what she most delighted in—but they respect the truly great man who rules them so that they thrive, and who has lately won the military tamo which is so cherished by the warlike mind of battle-loving France. That brilliant episode in contemporary his tory, tho brief but wondorfhl Italian campaign, has done a great deal to secure Napoleon’s seat on the throne. In his civil position ho had given numerous proof's of the highest adminis trative capacity. But France wanted more. Even since the time of Henry tho Fourth— whoso statue stands upon Pont Neuf as you cross over the Seine to visit tho statoly pile oi Notre Dame do Paris—there has been a great military feeling in France. This cul minated, fora time, under tho first Napoleon, who was born to command, if ever man was, who roacted, with additions, tho glorious scenes of conquest which, through more than a thousand stormy years, have crowned tho name of Charlemagne with tho bright halo of undying fame. To such a people there appeared something gallant and cvenchivalric In Napoleon's showing a desire to bo more than' a carpet-knight; and tho remarkable series of victories, under his own command, which proved him to bo a great leader as well os a fearless soldier, havo secured him the affection of his soldiers, and won for him au enthusiastic feeling, in Paris, which has no parallel In her annals, save that which the 'early victories of the First Napoleon awaken ed in tho early part of tho present century. With the sole exception of Queen Victoria, we doubt whether any European ruler is even as popular, just now, as Napoleon the Third. He is only mortal, amid all his greatness, and to us, much mußing on the prospects of empires and dynasties, there is cause for se rious, if not for sad contemplation upon tho probable and possible. Future of Franco. Tbo question cannot fail to present itself— What will .bo tho condition of Franco if Na poleon dlo within a few years, leaving a child, probably under tbo Regency of Ecoenie, tho beloved and boautiful, to rule forty millions by what Bvron calls “the glory and tho no thing of a namo.” ■ The appointment of Eugenie, to not ns Re. gent during Nafomson’s absence in Italy, was evidently a sagacious step, with a prospective view. Tho objept was to accustom France, and more especially Paris, its heart, to the rulo of that admirable and popular woman, who sheds moro lustre on the throne than ever, with all its grandeur, it could bestow upon her. Were Napoleon to die, leaving Euoenib as Regent, during a long minority, what would ho likely to happen in Franco 7 Would thcro bo a continuation of the Em pire under tho Napoioon dynasty 7 or a restora tive of the Monarchy under tho Count dk CiiAMuono, pr the Count de Pabis 7 or, ns tho author of << The Napoleon Dynasty” shadows forth, another experiment of Republicanism? Those aro.not questions to bo discussed at the conclusion of a rapid article such as this is. Wo lay them down as wo would laydown pro positions to bo argued, and shall return to tho subject at our earliest convenience—because the solution of tho enigma will ptgibably show, not only tho probable future of France, but that of Europe also. Captain Samuel Samuels.

Tho Administration la considerably oxorcisod by tho Oregon boundary and Mexican troaty ques tions, and devotes to their consideration whatever tirao it can spare (Tom Us great work of anathema tizing and excommunicating Douglas and his adhe rents from the party. If it is posalblo to raise a war-breor.o on tho question of tho titio to the island of San Juan, without incurring any roal dangor of aetual hostilities with Great Britain, it will Certainly do so. Those “ piping times of pcaco” are not exactly to its taste, and it does not Submit cheerfully to tho thought that the “ bruised arms’ 1 employed in tho Paraguay expedition and tho Utah war should bo qulotly “hung up for monuments.” Tho President has always felt great pride, and I think not unjustly) In his familiarity with all quos* ttons at issuo betwoon tbo United States and Groat Britain; and if tho controversy In regard to San Juan should assume a serious aspect, it is not un reasonable to suppose that ha would bo enabled to defend our national rights in a Presidential rues* sago, or a diplomatic despatch, with a degreo of ability that would attract attention, and win publio applause. He Is naturally anxious that his I Administration should not pass away without leav ing some tittle impress npon the history of tho country, to which he could revert with satisfaction when he entors the shades of retirement whioh await him aftortho 4th of March, 1801. And in all candor, so little of a really creditable obar&otor has been dono, that the necessity daily beoomes more and more pressing to make the most of tho limited time yet left him. Lot us hope that ho will at least so manage tho present dispute that the future historian can truly say of his Administration: “ It found tho title to San Juan a mooted question, and it con cluded a treaty by whioh the American claim to that Island was clearly established.” Thoro is a not inconsiderable body of Democrats who feel it inoumboot npon them to praise tho National Ad ministration at all political assemblages in which they participate, and if it is enabled to aohli/o Borne object for whioh it oan bo justly praised, tho wear and tear of Conscience to which these devo tees of regularity are now subjected will bo sensi bly diminished. By all means, therefore, let tho Administration astonish tho country by a tangible act which will do something to retrieve its sadly damaged reputa tion, and make conscientious and intelligent Demo crats feel that they have found sonic slight com pensation for tho blußhes of shame and confusion Us many disoreditablo doeds havo brought upon their cheeks. If tho proverb Is true that “tbo darkest hoar comes just before the dawn of day,” the period must bo near at hand when it should afford us a scries of remarkable proofs of states manship and administrative ability. As I wrote you recontly, there is no doubt about the faot that arrangements of & very extensive character have been made to revive tho slave trade upon our shoros. There have alroody been a con siderable number of slaves imported, and some of them oro now owned, and paraded about by promi nent men in the South, who seem to feel very much the same sort of pride, in possessing on African negro, who affords in himself a tangible proof of tho successful Infringement of the laws against tho slave trade, as some of your northern Abolitionists, do in conooaling and exhibiting to their friends a runaway negro, whom they have aided to shield from tho operation of tho fugitlvoslavo law. There are also a number ofvessolsnpwout seeking cargoes of slaves, with the intention of landing them at an early dAy upon our shores, and those who arc thus engaged count confidently upon thesaccossot their operations. But, while this trodo is being thus really recommenced, I do not think that any very strong effort will be made to legalize tho traffic, as it enoonnters bitter opposition in many* quarters of the South, and even the slave traders will be raoro active in aetting tbo law at defiance than in Peek ing its Tepoal. Somo of tho ultra Southern papers are making ludicrous displays of virtuous indignation over a late remark of Sonator Toombs, in a publio speech in Georgia. Spooking of Judge Douglas, ho characterized him as a “bold, manly, truthful, independent patriot,” and, turning to tho re porters, told thorn to “ put that down.” This bold act of tho eloquent Georgia Senator, in daring to praise one who, for devotion to principle, Is branded as a traitor, and by many other oppro brious epithets, has called down upon bis devoted head many bitter condemnations. There was, perhaps, never a moro bitter and de termined political contest than that now progress ing in California, between tho Loooraplonites on the one hand, and tho antl-Leoompton Democrats and Republicans on tho other. It is a war to tho knife and the knife to the hilt campaign, and not withstanding the immense patronage of the Na tional Administration on ftp Pacific coast, and the unscrupulous manner in which it is employed, there is a fair prospect that the Administration ticket will be defeated. In Ohio, the contest between the Republican and Democratic nominees for Governor is of a very animated character, and from present indications the voto will be a close one, Tho prospeots of the Democratic candidate have been vory much im proved by the promptness of tho Ohio Democracy in adopting the Popular Sovereignty platform. The late speeches of Judge Douglas at Columbus and Cincinnati were delivered in compliance with tho unanimous request of tho Democratic State Central Committee. Occasional. Jbcttcr from New York.

" CutKA, (iI.ANM, AMI QIfKNMV Xttl..As A branch of trade, Hint which is conducted under tho above head claim* a high position among the jobbing, com mission, and importing business of our eitr. Some of tho most wealthy and entei prising merchants, whose names have been longest identified with the mercantile prosperity or Philadelphia, have been and are still en pa-jed in this important department. Wo say ospoi taut, because,like diy-goods,clothing.hard*aro,boots, and shoos, and all tho other great staples of commerce, tho article oP'Queensirare,’' intis most extonded sense, onto™ to necessities that aro at once as universal as the household institution, nnd as widespread as civilization. Wo had recently tho pleasure of visiting one of tho leading houses hore in this branch, (the mninmuth new granilo establishment, mtowlnehthey have recenth re moved, of Messrs. Whuiiit, Smith, A Co., No. 3 North Fifth street.) and wero much gratified with the display which the fire stories of that immense edifice contains. This, by the May, is one of tho oldeatestabliihcd housoa in thin line in this country, and ns such, deserves toltc noticed. .Mr. Peter Wright, tho original founder of tho firm, came to thin city from a noHthborinu Slate many renia neo, xvlion a young man, and commenced the China and tlu*cn«ware business in a very humble war. Tact and talent, united with a decree of judicious ener gy which is seldom left unrewarded, in d3o course of time secured for him a prominent place among the mer chant* of Philadelphia. As his sons attained their ma jority thoy wero successively admitted to &n intercut in tho busiiipr* of the hmin?, until finally, the elder part ner* leaving the husine**—which was hitherto jobbing nnd retail—commenced tho importing and commi-siou branch on Front utreet. where they now oceupy a posi tion probably second to no other house in this country in that department of trade. The present firm. About twelvo yoarsngo, assumed the responsibilities of the old house, which, as nlroady slated, is now located at No. 5 North Fifth street. Although very extensively engaged in the butines* of jobbing goods to nil parts of the t'nited State* nnd l>o y nnd, their facilities for rrtai/i.ig.as might be supposed, aro such ns naturally suggest superior advantage* to buyers. Their stock is largo, nnd embraces every va riety of Knghuh and French China warn, and Cmckerv of every description. Glnaßwnro in all ibi multiform varieties of crystal beauty constitute* a prominent fea ture of thoir biißmc««. nnd their sample-loom for theso articles alone is renllv an exhibition of art.
