THE REPUBLIC UNDER EiiriRE.
from, tht X. T. Tribune.
Agitation in France is not over; but it is
lair to say that Napoleon is confronting tho
force of publio opinion with tho powerful
plausibility which is native to his dynasty.
fXhat plausibility is the science of kings, and
Sometimes the detestation of the peoples, but,
nuch as it is, it is the imperial life-long habit.
From the day when the Emperor convinced
himself that it was inexpedient not to for
swear himself, and that he could best repre
sent the average propensities and intelligence
of France by maintaining in his proper person
lho fantastic and divine right of usurpation,
lie has practised the black art of empire. To
know how to put peoples asleep, to keep them
down as by a spell, to ruin while he amuses
ihein, to make the poor pay for their poverty,
while they shout, "Vive Napoleon !" to chain
lip courage and make intellect a convenient
Blave this is a science worthy of Nostra
damus and Cagliostro besides. It is to em
ploy the general selfishness of a great people
to keep it in subjection, and to make use of
Borne moral cowardice in the popular nature
to fight imperial battles. Not for the first
lime in the history of the world are nations
j-uled by juggling.
The versatility of French experience is a
marvel. It has run the gamut of monarchy in
nil forms; has passed every spasm of anarchy
except that of popular death; has rte-gradu-jited,
so to speak, out of the republic in every
Stage, and has returned to empire to undergo
ihe process of being kept scientifically under
ihumb. France has been returned to her cra
dlo with bayonets to watch her; and in time
jshe has been suffered to walk her own way
fcvithin narrow bounds and under guard. Her
preat men share her prodigious versatility.

In fact, it is not given to empires to

conceding them Napoleon has surrendered his
Jeast yaluublo and defeasible outworks with
the intention of corrupting his besiegers. Toe I
real ground of reform has not been curried.
It is back of the laws aud the legislatures that
France suffers sutlers preiectsuip, gerry
mandering, and misrepresentation. Tho
measure of Napoleon's concession is the mea
sure of French representation, and the mea
sure of French satisfaction is about tho same.
The reforms granted by tho Empire are
but an induction to tho study of it gouoral
fraud.
THE FRENCH EMPEROR'S SPEECH.
from the X. Y. Time.
Tho message of Napoleon to tho French
Legislature, which was telegraphed to us
Tuesday, shows the profound iniluenco that
has been produced by the late elections.
They have, in fact, compelled tho Em
peror to Announce his purpose of establish
ing reforms that are tantamount to a change
in tho principle on which he has hitherto ad
ministered the Government.
The Senate has yet to consider the ques
tions which he has proposed, but this "con
sideration" will amount to little more than
an agreement with the will of that power
by which the Senators hold their plaoos. If
ho bo really willing that they should pass
into law, the Senate will bo ready enough to
assent. If, at any period of tho tiino at
which they are under "consideration-' he
desires their modification in any way, tho
Senate will be equally ready to assent. And
if, at any time, he is pleased to let tho Sena
tors know that he desires the rejection of
his own propositions, they will be happy to
register his will in that direction.
The vital point in the scheme which he has
formulated, is tho proposition to give tho
Legislature tho "control of tho budget." This
is tho fundamental symbol of power in all froo
legislative assemblies. It has always been
practically withheld from tho Napoleonic
Legislature, and the Emperor has always been
careful to retain it in his own hands. While
he held it, ho could control the entire action
of tho Government. Of his own motion he
could proclaim war or peace. He could in
crease the army, augment the public expondi
dures for his own ends, and, in short, by con
trolling the Treasury of the nation, could
establish its policy upon all points ot admin
istration. No matter how servile the Legis
lature may at this time seem to be, when its
members nnd they can control the budget,
and through it the Government, there will
arise among them a new leolmg ot responsi
bility and independence. Tho people, too,
will be able to hold them to a more strict ac
count, and the popular will must become more
imperatively dominant.
The power is one which the Emperor would
never resign if ho did not see tho impossi
bility of permanently upholding the present
system.
As for the other changes he proposes, they
are all in the direction of liberal reform. Tho
proposition to permit the Legislation to elect
its own officers, who have heretofore been
appointed by the Emperor, will give the body
much greater freedom and independence.
The simplification of the methods of dealing
with "projects of law" will facilitate the pas
sage of public reforms. The submission to
the Legislature of commercial treaties is an
important extension of the powers of the body;
and though its existence heretofore would,
beyond doubt, have prevented the adoption
of some most advantageous treaties, such as
the commercial treaty with England, yet, as
republicans, we must have more faith in
the general wisdom of tho Legislature than
of any Emperor. The "extension of the
right of interpellation" doubtless provides for
the removal of the cumbersome machinery
which is now required to be set in operation
before it deputy can bring any question to the
attention of the Legislature. We know of no
inethod in any Legislature so discouraging
and complicated as that in the French Legis
lature. It gives the Government full power
to dictate what matters shall be discussed by
the Deputies, and thus in any emergency
gives the Emperor control of the action of the
legislative body. Next to the control of the
Budget, the freedom of interpellation is tho
most important step towards legislative inde
pendence. The astuteness, if not the duplicity, of Na
poleon, in working his way out of political
difficulties such as have lately arisen in
France, prevents our indulging in very lively
hopes ol the passage of any measures of re
form that will seriously limit his personal
power, or interfere with the absolute supre
macy he has heretofore retained m the Gov
ernment of France. Again and again has he
promised reforms and liberties in the past
few years, and once and again has he deceived
the people. But the indications trom the
recent course of affaire are more dnterrni
nate than anything we have heretofore had,
and it looks lately as though the "logic of
events" had become more powerful even than
the Emperor.
JOHN P. HALE AS A SMUGGLER.
From tht X. Y. World.
John P. Hale may be taken as a fair repre
sentative of the Republican party, in politics
nnd morals, m habits 01 mina ana inougni.
He was among the earliest, if not the earliest,
of politicians to successfully use anti-slavery
emotion as an element in obtaining office. A
country lawyer more conspicuous for that
kind of wit and general faculty of speech
which propitiates superficial jurymen than
for that learning and sound argument which
assist the Bench in ascertaining legal truth
he began his political career by seeking office
m New Hampshire of the .Democratic party,
and succeeded so far as to be elected by that
organization to the' Legislature, and subse
quently in 1K43, to Congress, neiore the
end of his first term ho was renominated for
a second term by tho Democrats; but having,
in tho January anterior to the March in which
the election was to be held, written a letter
denouncing the proposed annexation of Texas
on anti-slavery grounds, a new convention was
called in his district by regular Democratic
authority, and another candidate nominated
in the place of Hale, who ran as an indepen
dent candidate.
A majority of votes being required to eloct,
and no candidate having that number, the
district was unrepresented during that term.
In lb43 a combination of Whigs and Freo
soilors elected him to the Senate of the
United States, in which body he was, when be
took his seat, tho only Senator elected on an
uuu-mavery piatiorm. Hale antedates Sum
ner by some two or three years. The latter
was elected from Massachusetts by a combina
tion of Democratic and Free-soil votes; the
trade being that tho Democrats should have
he Governor, m the person of Boutwell, and
the Senator for the short term, in the person
of Robert Rantoul, Jr. The political career
of Sumner Logon with an oration in Faneuil
Hall against the annexation of Texas and a
letter of rebuke to Mr. Robert 0. Wi'nthrop
for voting for the measure of annexation in
Congress. It was Winthrop, as candidate for
Governor of Massachusetts, whom Boutwell
defeated. Texas thus gave birth to Hale
Sumner, Boutwell. and the political anti'
slavery republicanism of New England and
tho country.
To return to Hale. In 18,r2 ho was Presi
dential candidate of the Froo-soil party, and
tho next year was dofentod by Charfos G.
Atheiton in tho election for Federal Senator.
But in 185.") ho was re-oloctod to fill tho va
cancy made by Athorton's death; in 18."(J was
again re-elected to tho Souate; and in lM;."i
appointed by the late lamented Lincoln to bo
Minister to Madrid. During tho three yews
from March, 185J, when he was out of public
office, he was nominally resident in this city
as a lawyer, although his chief business wis
that of lobbyist in Washington. That ho
carried his professional employment into tho
Senate, when he returned to that body, Ins
never been satisfactorily established.
Mr. Hale is now an oldish mau, past sixty
years of nge, aud the moral standard which
lie hos used as a: guide and measure unto
himself in his political career can bo appre
ciated by the record of a portion of his acts as
Minister at Madrid. Since the leaning of a
tree follows the bending of tho twig, the con
dition of the former in maturity may furnish
evidence tending to show in what direction
has been the bending.
For Perry, tho American Socrctary of Le
gation at Madrid, wo have little rospect. Ho
has managed to get up a quarrol with nearly
every minister under whom ho has served,
and has the good-will of none. Tho reputa
tion he has in certain quarters as a lobbyist in
tho executive departments of tho Spanish
Government, whether deiervod or undeserved
(of which we know nothing), and his quarrel
some disposition, are sufficient to preclude
reasonable hope of his usefulness to tho Gov
ernment of tho United States. But, despite
all this, it is impossible to shut our eyes to
the damaging facts ho brings out against
Hale, in his recent letter to tho Tribune. The
case, under his showing, is just as wo sup
posed it was when we commentod on it many
weeks since; and it is as disgraceful as it well
con be to Halo, to tho Amoriean Embassy at
Madrid, aud to tho people of tho United
Stutcs, who are responsible for the acts of tho
Republican party. Not so infamous, to be
sure, as the Sickles appointment by Grant;
but bad enough.
Mr. Halo, in communications of defense
addressed to the Now York newspapers of his
own political faith, has endeavored to slip out
of the awkward fix in which Perry had placed
him, upon the ingenious theory that the in
culpated importations had been made on docu
ments prepared in Spanish by Perry for his
(Hale's) signature, the Lit tor not being able,
or not earing, to road what they contained; in
other words, that the Minister had been duped
by his secretary. Halo, in fact, plead igno
rance of the law and language which every
body, fit to be a foreign minister, is assumed
to know. But Perry, in his recent reply,
punches the pith out of that defense in double
quick time.
Halo sailed for Madrid in June, 18i'i", aud
went directly to his post, and sixteen months
afterwards he was discovered smuggling mer
chandise under color of his diplomatic "per
mit." This is certainly a period sufficiently
long to have enabled him to acquire know
ledge enough to protect himself against tho
wiles of Perry, if he had wished to do so. It
turns out that Sonor Asensi, Chief of the
Spanish Commercial Bureau, called the atten
tion of Perry, on March 8, 18(17, to the fact
that foreign merchandize, "permitted free"
to Halo, went not to tho dwelling house of
the latter, but to tho warehouse of ono Ve
lasco. The smuggling operations of Hale
were going on briskly, it seems, in tho pre
vious December. Perry was informed thereot
by tho Spanish Government on the eighth
day of next March, and three days thereafter
Hale wrote the following note to Velasco,
who was his pal in violating the revenue laws
of Spain:
"Legation of nil! United States of America,
Madkip, March 11, 1807. To Sr. D. B. Kulz de Ve-
lusco Dear Sir: lie so good as to send me your
exact account expressing the value ot the goods
which you have furnished me. and also the amount

me irancnise wnien is pending relative to two bales
of carpets proceeding from England, aud pay the
duties as If It did not exist. 1 am your attentive and
uueumui. servant, JOHN l'. 11A1.E.'
Velasco, not understanding how that ex
posure by the Spanish Government had com
pelled Hale to summarily close up the part.
nership accounts, wrote a rather peremptory
repiy, in mese woras:
Madrid, March 12 To Senor Don John P. Hale
Dear Sir: On the 12th of December I Informed vou
that our accounts would be balanced dd to that duv
oy your iurnisning me an oraer lor iie iree aumis-
Bion oi inree case Tnese arrived, and tno atrair
was terminated. Afterwards, and at your renuest. I
paid the account of your upholsterer, he reducing It
at my request to inree inousanu reais. i wrote yon
saying that this sum would be balanced by an order
for the free admission of two bales of carpets, which
you oirered me. and trusting In your word I ordered
the said two bales from London. Yesterday you
annul by your letter what you had offered me, and la
view of It I sent a telegram to London to suspend the
shipment, If it was not already done. Be bo good as
to Bend me the three thousand reals which I paid on
your account to the upholsterer, Anthony Reyes, and
our accounts will be balanced up to this day. I avail
myself of this occasion to repeat myself, with the
highest consideration, your obedient servant,
"Bonifacio Ruiz de Vklasco."
Terry, in order to clinch the evidence of
the fact that Hale was perfectly well aware of
the character of the "three cases" refered to
by Velasco, and the use to which the evaded
duties thereon were to be put, furnishos a
copy of the application made by Halo for a
"free permit" (as we say in New iork)for the
cases:
ITramlat ion from the orhjinal SpanUh.
"Legation of the I'nitkd states; of America,
Maduid, December lit, IBM. The Envoy Extraordi
nary and Minister l'lenlpotentlary of the United
States of America presents his compliments to the
Minister of State, and begs his Excellency to bo so
good as to command the proper orders to Issue for
the admission free of duty of three cases proceeding
from England one of musliu curtains and stuir for
cut tains, one of cotton bed-quilts, one of table llnon
audstull'for napkins which are coming addressed
to his name, to be despatched at the Custom-house
of Madrid. Mr. Hale takes this opportunity to renew
to li is Excellency, Lieutenant-Uunurul Colongo, the
assurance of his most distinguished consideration.
John P. Halk.
To Ills Excellency the Minister ol state of Her
Catholio Majesty."
Unless these documents presented by Perry
are forgeries, Hale is by them a convicted
smuggler. It is of no use to mince matters,
but it is necessary to call things by their right
names. The 'proper orders' which Hale ob
tained for the free importation of tho "three
cases" were obtained by falsehood and fraud,
and so were void and of no effect. He im
pliedly represented the merchandise as in
tended for his own consumption, and when he
made the representation ho knew he was tell
ing an untruth. .
It is as if Senor Roberts, the Spanish Min
ister in Washington, being indebted to Messrs.
A. T. Stewart & Co. for articles of a gentle
man's wear to the extent of tho legal amount
of duties chargeable on ten thousand cigars,
should pay the same by obtaining from the
Secretary of the Treasury, under his diplo
matio privilege, a "free permit" for that
quantity from Cuba, and, sending the same
to Mr. Stewart, cancel his debt. Halo's case
is worse, than this, for be had not one transac
tion, but a running account, with Velasco for
all sorts of things, including money expended
in his behalf, on which he made payments
by "free permits" for imported merchandise.
If Spain wero not a tolerant nation and
well disposed towards the United States, she
would long ago have given Hale his passports
and told him to leave the country.
Wo aro curious now to hoo wh it tho party
of "moral ideas" will say of their earliest and
most conspicuous champion 1 It is to ba
hoped that Castolar and his associates in
Spuin will not estimate all apostles of indi
vidual and religious liberty in the United
Stntos by such standards as Halo and Sickles!
