A NEW PHASE OF N APOLEONISM
The present Emperor of the French, liko
"Dogberry," is a man who has had lossos:
he was not born to the purple, and ho served
a long and tolerably severe apprenticeship to
povorty and misfortune. 1 or a good deal
more than half his life, he was very much
down at the heels, and was obliged to play
the part of a shabby genteel gentleman with
but very few friends. He had one object,
however, that he kept steadily in view, and
despite one or two slips that came near being
fatal, ho finally succeeded in seizing the
auspicious moment and won the prize. It
might be supposed that his own minfortunos
would have inclined him to advocate more
liberal ideas than were to bo expected from
the hereditary princes of Europe, who had
been carefully educated in the belief of the
divine right of kings: but the man w.ts and is
cold, Hellish, and cruel. To re-establish the
Napoleonic dynasty, with himself on the
throne, and to transmit tho throne of France
to his posterity, were tho grand ideas of his
life, to which everything must be subordinated.
Shrewder and more politic, but without the
depth and genius of his uncle, he has managed
alternately to amuse, flatter, and coerce the
French people into a seeming acquiescence in
his policy. Tho shallowness of his system,
however, is shown in the growing strength of
the enemies of the empire, in the popular dis
content in all tho large cities, and in tho
exile of some of the most brilliant and pa
triotic Frenchmen of tho day. The divided
htiength of the opposition has, however, pre
vented it from making itself heard with
effect until now, when tho grand crisis of
another revolution is apparently looming up
in a not far distant future; and there ap
pears to be a disposition to effect a union
of forces for the destruction of a common
enemy.
The Emperor achieved a nominal victory
at the late elections, but no one knows better
than himself how near it was to a positive and
disgraceful defeat. To accede to ths demand
of the opposition would be practically to give
tip all that he has been laboring for, while if
ho refuses to yield anything, the signs of
trouble ahead are so unmistakable that there
is no alternative but to make at least a show
of liberality. The moral effect of tho late
elections is shown in the concessions made by
the Emperor in yielding to tho Corps Legis
latif the right to elect its own oflicers, making
the ministers personally responsible, aud per
mitting them to be interrogated publicly with
regard to the policy of the government. If
these concessions were made with sincerity,
at least one great step would bo taken in the
direction of constitutional liberty, but tho
facts that have been elicited as to the actual
intentions of the Emperor do not promise
that the proposed reforms will accomplish all
that is hoped of them by those who are anxious
to see another reign of violence and terror in
France avoided if possible.
At tho opening of the French Senato yes
terday, M. Eouher, referring to tho duty de
volved upon that body of examining tho pro
posed reforms, said he should inquire
whether they were popular enough to go
hand in hand with liberty, and at tho same
time strong enough to resist anarchy. He
was confident that the Senate would enter
upon this discussion with the firm determina
tion of interpreting the will of the country,
and that by the combined efforts of tao Gov
ernment and Senate more general harmony
would be established between the powers of
the State, and the institutions of the empire
could acquire renewed strength, lustre, and
popularity. v
As the Senate is the creature of the Em
peror, its interpretation of the will of the
country will most likely bo depen
dent on his opinion as to what the will of
the country is; and, until the Senate is an in
dependent body, it will never be anything
more than a mouthpiece for tho Emperor.
The ministers are also dependent alone upon
the Emperor, and while it is conceded that
they are to be considered as responsible for
their acts, they can only bo impeached by the
Senate. This still leaves the whole power in
the hands of the Emperor, while it affords him
an excellent opportunity to thrust some
of his unpopularity on tho shoulders of his
nominally responsible agents. How such a
system as this can pacify the discontent that
prevails it is not easy to see, and it is par
ticularly unfortunate for the Emperor that the
idea has beoome prevalent that he only made
these concessions through fear of couse
quences. Such a notion as this will not be
likely to make the opposition more tractable,
and there is still a prospect of extremely lively
times in France before long.
. HARVARD VS. OXFORD.
The great international boat-race which is to
come off in England on the aist of August,
between the crews of Harvard University and
the University of Oxford, appears to excite
our friends across the water almost as much
as the Alabama claims question and the Irish
Church bill did a little while back. Now that
the Alabama question has received a tempo
rary, and the Irish Church a permanent
quietus, the approaching exhibition of muscle
is, in fact, one of the few first-class sensa
tions which the English papers have at their
command, and the genius who fixes up the
daily cable budget of news in London re
gurus their comments upon the Harvard crew
as being almost equal in importance
to the Goodwood races. Yesterday we
r told that tho London press bad (hopped
THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA. WEDNESDAY".
the eulogistic strain in which they had been
indulging for some time, whon speaking of
the Harvard crew, and had betaken them
selves to an unfavorable vein of comm n.
But the most startling piece of inform Uien
that has as yet been flashed over tho caMo
concerning this groat boat-race is a choice
extract from the comments of a writer in the
columns of tho London Daily News of yester
day morning, who is so deoply and thoroughly
imbued with the traditional British love of
fair play, that ho actually expresses tho hope
in fact, almost indulges in tho expectation
that the best boat will be "the first to pass
the winning-post!" If this isn't tho consum
mation of fairness, wo should liko the cable
man to send us a special despatch conveying
a clear idea of what is.
But, seriously, this international boat-race
business bids fair to follow in the path of ail
similar doings, and to run itsolf into tho
ground by its own momentum. Thousands
of pounds sterling have already been stakod
upon the result of the contest, tho odds at
the latest advices by cable being two to one
in favor of tho Oxford crew, and during tho
interval between the present day and the day
of the race still other thousands will bo
wagered. And when tho race comes off, it
will be nothing more nor loss than a Derby
upon water, with all its demoralizing and
disastrous concomitants. If the Harvard crow
happen to man the best boat, and the fates
do not interfere to upset the hopes and ex
pectations of the Daily Nctra, John Bull in
general, and betting John Dull in particular,
will tear his hair and weep. If tho Oxford
crew chunco to paddle the best boat, and the
fates do not defy the calculations of tho
Daily Nt irn, John Bull all the world over will
go off in an ecstacy, and the Harvard men will
return to their own country, perchance a little
sadder, but assuredly not a whit the wiser,
than when they sallied forth to test their
muscle upon waters located in foreign parts.
In either event, tho cablo man at Loudon will
bo in high feather, and will certainly not re
strain himself within the bounds of a single
column. And tho earth will continue to re
volve upon her axis just the same as if both
Harvard and Oxford were keeping company
at the bottom of the sea.
A NEW POLITICAL MO VEMENT.
The unpopularity of a certaiu portion of the
Kepublican ticket has inspired tho Democracy
with hope that thoy will be able to create a
division in the Republican party, which will
enable them to seize the prize next October
without much difficulty. It is calculated that
in spite of the notorious frauds perpetrated
at the Democratic conventions, and the bad
character of their candidates, they will bo
able to poll nearly the full strength of their
party, whereas many Republicans will
probably not vote at all,
and an easy victory can bo gained
if a split can bo made. To this end the
Democratic managers are now working, and
we seriously urge the Republicans of this city
to consider cautiously the new reform move
ment inaugurated to-day at Concert Hall. In
another column will bo found tho proceedings
of a meeting at that place to start a now in
dependent ticket on a temperance platform,
which will bo presented for the acceptance of
both Republicans and Democrats. Now wo
will cordiiilly support any proper effort to rid
the Republican ticket of the black sheep,
Messrs. Houseman, Stokes, Davis, Dunn,
Adaire, Cloud, and Hong, and we would
much prefer advocating Democrats of good
character rather than these men.
A party, however, that goes into tho can
vass with a temperance platform will not havo
the ghost of a chance. This has been abun
dantly proved by experience, and the reasons
are entirely independent of the merits of the
temperance cause itself. We will give all the
aid in our power to tho legitimate efforts of
the temperance men, but we deprecate making
temperance a question of politics. Wo depre
cate this movement particularly because we
know that it has been inaugurated by Demo
crats, the funds to start it have been supplied
by Democrats, and they hope by moans of it
to create a division in the Republican ranks.
Let any candid Republican who may be
disposed to aid this temperance movement
consider for a moment what will be its conse
quences. It will present a few Democratic
names on its ticket, men who feel strongly on
the temperance question, and who would bo
willing on that account to "go back" on the
party, and it might gain a few Democratic
voters who are of the same way of thinking.
But does any one suppose that it would make
any serious impression in tho Democrat io rank
and file? Every intelligent man in the com
munity knows perfectly well that nine-tenths
of tho voters on tho temperance ticket would
be Republicans, and tho wholo responsibility
of the movement would be thrown upon the
Republican party. Although we know that
the whole thing has its origin in the Demo
cracy, it will not bo a difficult matter for the
Democratic managers to ' throw the wholo
onus of it on their opponeuts. Not only will
the Democrats themselves vote solid against
it, but many week-kneed Republicans will, in
all probability, be induced to do so likewise,
thus giving tho opposition a double advan
tage. If the persons who have started this new
movement desire to create a reform, they can
do so much more effectually by assembling in
their respective districts, and, if possible,
make a choice between the Republican and
Democratio candidates, or if there is no choice,
then put up new men that will be entitled to
the regards of both parties. This temperance
movement, however, can accomplish
nothing wha'ever for the cause of tem
perance, and it therefore cannot
claim the support of those practical men who
really desire to soe the evils of intoxication
abated, while it will introduce an element of
discord that ought not to be brought into the
present canvass, while honest men of all par
ties are earnestly working for a groat politioal
reform that has paramount claims to the con
sideration of every citizen who has tho wel
fare of tlio State and city at heart.
TJ1E CUP-AN QUESTION.
It is evident that the destiny of Cuba and
the result of tho present struggle of the in
surgents to achieve their independence will
bo largely influenced by tho courie of tho
United States Government. Several import
ant illustrations of its power have already
been displayed. 1 ho Creoles received a severe
check in the arrest f the expeditions they
had organized at New York. They had relied
with great confidence upon tho quiet acqui
escence of our Government in their violations
of our neutrality laws, aud thoy had expended
largo sums of money upon their schomes for
sending aid and comfort to tho patriots from
our shores. By losing this resource thoy lost
one of tho greatest adjuncts of thoir final
success.
There has been a wide-spread foeling that,
sinco we refused to permit the Cubans to ac
quire strength from our soil, wo should bo
equally careful to prevent the Spaniards from
obtaining effective weapons here. The fact
was well known that they were having a num
ber of gunboats constructed, which would
probably render as good sorvico in Cuban
waters as the American guuboats rendered in
the Southern States during tho war of tho Re
bell ion. Tho practical difficulty was to do
viso a pretext for preventing their egress
from this country. Spain is nominally a
friendly power, having the same right to pur
chase arms, munitions, or even ships, for
ordinary purposes, that wo had in Lsiil (;.- to
buy guns in Europe. But a principle of in
ternational law which forbids a nation from
furnishing weapons to one friendly nation
which aro to bo used for aggressive warfare
against another friendly nation has been c die 1
into requisition, and a new illustration of the
unbending fidelity of American neutrality has
been furnished to Great Rritain. Marshal
Barlow has seized the Spanish gunboats, on
tho ground that they may bo used in tha war
waged by Spain against Peru, and by this
action the South American republic, as well
as tho insurgents, will be protected.
It is impossible to foretell the results of
American diplomacy at Madrid. It is not im
probable that tho lato seizure may have boen
stimulated by an unfavorable reception of
propositions submitted by our Minister to thj
Spanish authorities. Thero aro conflicting
rumors in regard to tho character of the in
structions given to Sicklos. Ho miyhive
been authorized to recommend tho sale of the
island to the Cubans, or merely directed to re
quest a mitigation of the soverities of Spanish
rule. Tho administration will no doubt find
some method of expressing its sympathy for
tho revolutionists.
THE NE W DEMO CRA TIC II UL ES.
A convention over which that illustrious
Knight Templar, Sir Richard Vaux, presides,
is engaged in devising new rules for tho un
ruly Democracy. Several important changes
in the old system havo been recommended by
tho committee to whom the wholo subject
was referred. They favor the Republican
plan of having a separate convention
for the nomination of each candidate for city
or county offices. Another suggestion is that
representation shall horeaf ter be regulated not
by population, but by tho number of Demo
cratic voters, the rule to be "one delegate
for every eight hundred Democratic voters
in each ward, and one for a fraction of eight
hundred over four hundred." This will pro
bably furnish a more equitable method of
ascertaining the exact wishes of the Demo
cracy; but as it will increase the propor
tionate influence in their conventions of tho
Fourth ward crowd, tho representatives of
the Seventeenth ward, and the delegations from
other Democratic strongholds, its natural ten
dency will be to make future Democratic
tickets even worse than tho one selected this
year, if such a thing is possil lc.
The gem of the new system, howovor, is
embodied in the following rule:
"Hulo so. When the conventions provMed for by
these rules, or any of them, aro iluly organized and
proceed to eleetflclegates and nominate candidates,
the voting for delegate or candidates uhail be done
in the following manner, aud in uo vther, viz. : The
nunie of each delegate shall be called by the secre
tary, and the delegate so called shall ribo
from hiM place, come to the secretary's table, and
Klve his name, and tho names of the delegates or
candidates for whom he votes; wUereupou the
secretary shall report the same in the minutes, ami
the president of the convention shall announce the
nunie of the delegate voting, aud the per-wu or per
sons tor whom he go voted, and In like manner shall
each vote be taken."
Sad experience has demonstrated to tho de
cent adherents of the Democracy that no ordi
nary parliamentary regulations can control
the turbulent spirits who usually rulo their
conventions. They "go in to win," and are
ready to eke out deficient intellectual, moral,
or political strength by a display of muscular
power. If obstinate delegates will persist in
refusing to adopt the proper way of thinking,
they can at least be knocked down, kicked
out of doors, or thrown out of tho windows,
and more tractable spirits substituted to vote
in their ni me i. So many conven
tions have been carried in this man
ner that even a portion of the Demooracyare
disgusted, and the new rulo therefore directs
that in voting "the name of each delegate
shall bo called by tho secretary, and the dele
gate so called shall rise from his place, come
to the secretary's table, and give his name and
the names of tho delegates or candidates for
whom he votes!" What is the world coming
to? Is there to be no more cakes and ale?
and no more chances for tho bullies to plug
up stubborn John Smith's peepers while
obedient John Jones votes for him? No
wonder the Democracy hesitated to adopt this
rule, preferring to adjourn over for further
cogitation before they surrendered one of the
great constitutional rights of the shoulder
hitters of the party.

GenU: A pernlBtent but unsuccessful effort wu
made on the night or May 9, isc, to drill the
Banker's chest received from yon a tew menth ago.
From facta that have come to onr knowledge, it la
evident that the attempt to open It was renewed on
Sunday evening following. Finding all efforts to drill
It useless, the effort was then made to break tha
lock, The hammering was heard by parties In the
neighborhood for several hoars, but supposing It to
arise from the railroad men replacing a defective
rail, excited no alarm. The tools, with the exception
of the drills, were left. It Is evident that they were
not only prepared, but perfectly familiar with the
construction of your Chest.
That they failed Is another evidence that yonr
Banker's Chests are what y ou claim for them. Bur.
glar-Proof.
