THE IIi'IIt:: LOST.
from the W. Y. Trihiuv.
JJ. Emilo Giraidiu, editor of La Liberie, in
Mi old-timo iicquiiiniiinc.o both of rho Princo
nnd tho Emperor Nhi'uIcud. To tho oiie,whcn
tounseled by M. TliioTM, bjforo his election
to the l'residoucy, nut. to commit hiuisolf by
prouiiHcs of lidolity, M. (iirurdin gave tho ro
liiark.'.blo advicoto bo hono.st. To tbe other,
when it was suggested thttt he might beooino
Emperor, he is roporlod to hnvo given tho
nsHunmoo that he would not reign for throe
months. M. Girnrdiu may not bo a true pro
phet, but it is certain Hint long ngoho earned
tho niekiinmo of Tho Weathercock. On this,
nnd oh royal nccounf.s, we take nioro thnn
jisuid moaning from his averinont thnt "tho
fio:oud empire is approaching its end," and
Hint "its fall is inevitable."
Napoleon might have prevented what now
Appears a fatality coeval with tho prostration
m.d decay of his lifo. He might havo Napo
Jeouied Franco in a liberal way many years
80, thinks II. Girardin; nnd even bo lately as
iu l !-!)'., after tho general elections, could havo
ordained a plebiscite instead of a sonatas oon
Bultrmi, and an amnesty without conditions,
instead of one excluding mich a man as M.
Ledru Kollin. The French editor is well
aware, doubtless, that Prince Nnpoloon, impe
rialist as he is by virtue of palaces and pon
pious, and republican in rospoct of an exceed
ingly liberal Hpeech, was a pronounced oppo
nent of thoi plebiscite, however earnestly he
inveighed against a non-elected body like the
J'ronch Keuate making a constitution for
Trance in the litter absence of the representa
tive part of the government. The Prince is
pupposed to bo a shrewder politician than the
editor, and may have calculated that at bost
an nppeal to tho peoplo was profoundly dan
gerous, lietter tho monstrosity of the Em
peror's own chosen Senate Toting a Senatus
Consultum, than summoning tho people in
discriminately to a feast after bo long a star
vation, lie this as it may, tho opinion of
La Libcrte is not hhaken that the invalid Em
poror is about to encounter the greatest crisis
of his life. Is it still possible to avoid catas
trophe? asks our French contemporary of a
man who knows how to look "revolution in
tho face." Should tho peril of tho hour
neither inspire nor enlighten nor stimulate
Lini, then he loses tho romuant of his power,
and, says M. Girardin, "the empire is lost."
He would be bold who would venture to
predict at this date either thi Napoleon or
his empire can long survive tho crisis upon
which Franco seems to have ontorod. Toaoe
remains with the empire, though tho radical
deputies, albeit not many in number, loudly
and justly complain of tho prorogation of the
Legislature, though the press is unusually
Lold and outspoken, and though the people
at largo, as witnessed in part by tho late
CouncilH-General, are not entirely satisfied.
The moment has arrived, in the judgmont of
the kikcle, when Franco must know some
thing about her foreign as well ai her home
policy, and with all bar proneness to rebellion
bo taken into the imperial confidonco. There
is to bo a new empire or a new France; but
as yet everything depends npon tho pulse of
one sick man; and the sick man is forsworn
and tho people are ready to forswear.
THE LATE ELECTIONS THE FIF
TEENTH AMENDMENT PENDLETON.
from the A. Y. Herald.
Tho late elections havo been vory close in
Pennsylvania and Ohio. One way or the
other tho result in Pennsylvania signifies
nothing, because in that State, beyond their
local issues, there was roally nothing at stake.
Iu Ohio tho contest was of some national
importance in two aspects first, in regard
lo tho fifteenth amendment, and secondly,
in reference to Pendleton, as the Democratic
champion of Ohio and the West for tho Pre
sidential succession.
With the vote of Ohio there would be a
fair prospect of securing tho required ratifica
tion by three-fourths of tho States of the fif
teenth amendment during the coming winter.
With a Democratic majority in either branch
of tho now Legislature tho vote of Ohio will
lie loBt, and considering that California is
lost, and that the new Democratico-conserva-tive
Legislature of Tennessoe is regarded ai
worse than doubtful, there is the probability
of a hitch in said amendment which may carry
it over into the elections of next fall. Tho
whole number of States in the Union is thirty
seven three-fourths of thirty-six is exactly
twenty-seven; but the thirty-seventh State
will make twenty-eight required for tho ratifi
cation pending.
Now, how stands the case? The States
which have ratified tho amendment are
twenty, to wit: Arkansas, Connecticut,
Florida, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Louisiana,
Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, Missouri,
Nevada, New Hampshire, New York, North
Carolina, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Vir
ginia, West Virginia, and Wisconsin. Tho
btates which have rejected the amendment
are: Delaware, Georgia, Ohio throe. Tho
States which have not yet acted on tho ques
tion are: Al.ibama, California, Iowa, Ken
tucky, Maryland, ilinnasota, Mississippi, Ne
braska, New Jersey, Oregon, Rhode Island,
Tennessoe, Texas, and Vermont fourteen.
Of there States, Mississippi and Texas uro re
quired to ratify irn a condition of reconstruc
tion two; nnd Iowa, Minnesota, Nebraska,
lUiode Island, and Vermont are certain live
jnore, which will make in ull twenty-seven.
We want one more, and we have these
States from which to got it, viz.: Alabama,
California, Delaware, Georgia, Kontucky,
Now Jersey, Maryland, Ohio, Oregon, and
Tennessee. Now, as for California, Delaware,
Maryland, Kentucky, New Jersey, Oregon,
and Tennessoe, they may bo counted out, so
that our chances are reduced to Ohio, Ala
bama, and Georgia. With a Ilepublican
Legislature in Ohio the thing is fixed without
further dituculty; but in uotauit ot utno a
little judicious diplomacy on tho part of the
administration may secure the one voto want
ing on said amendment from Georgia or Ala-
Lama. Theso States havo no interest now in
any further opposition to this amendment,
imininch as they have negro suffrage esta-
l.iiulmd within their borders. It is their
policy in fixing it upon tho North to bring
tho -Northern Demoi.Taoy into rttjurt with
rsuw Anti-radical rmrtv ot tne bourn. ve
nni,ia therefore, that the fifteenth amend-
in safe, and that it depends entirely
npon General Grant whether tho ratification
Shall bo completed without unnecessary delay
or shall Lo carried over to tho elections of
next year. So much, then, for tho fifteenth
.,i...f. We see that a Republican
Let-iKlaturo in Ohio fixes it at once, but tuat
even a hitch in Ohio does not endanger it,
because it can be still easily fixed by t!ie ad-
Nowfor Pendleton. Tho Ohio Dements,
un., under what they called the cheating
f K.-vmour and the Now ork managers
in
tho Tuuiuiuny Convention of lSii
have been
ninking a vigorous effort to put Tendloton in J
the foreground for 1K72. Had they elontod
him Governor over tho popular Republican
candidate Haves, it would have been a lino
fenthcr in Pendleton's cap. Tho )oinotiriicy
of the whole West Would bo rallied around
him as their champion ngainst New York and
her camiidiito, and they would doubtless prove
too strong for Tammany Hall and her favorito.
Rut, the defeat of Pendleton loaves Now York,
with her man Hoffman, masl or of tho field,
sud our coming November election will
establish tho Democratic supremacy of tho
Empire State through the decisive Democratic
vote of our imperial city.
Thus the election iu Ohio leaves tho na
tional Democracy in tho hands of Tammauy
Hall, for Tammany controls tho decisive vote
of this city. Holl'mmi, then, and not Pen
dleton, has tho insido track for the next
National Democratic Convention, nnd this,
wo presume, finishes Pondloton. IIo failed
signally in WA, for ho was a deadweight upon
McCloilan; he has been a failuro ever since,
and he ought now to bo laid up in lavender,
for ho is a very nice man.
Having thus disposed of tho only two
national issues really involved in theso late
electious, wo dismiss them. General Grants
administration in them was only an incident ;
but its popular strongth will bo practically
put to the tost in tho elections of next fall for
a now Congress.
THE LESSONS OF THE ELECTIONS.
From the A. Y. Sun.
As a necessary preliminary to carrying the
next Presidential election, tho Democrats aro
proposing to win over to tboir standard bouio
of the States which have generally been Ro
publican. Wo should like to know when,
where, and how they aro going to begin.
Elections havo just taken place in Pennsylva
nia, Ohio, and Iowa. In view of the main
object they aro trying to accomplish, tho De
mocrats, according to all precedents, ought to
havo succeeded in tne two lirst-named btates,
and seriously reduced tho usual Ilepublican
majority in the last. But they havo failed at
every point.
The Democracy fought tho battlo in thoso
three States under every seeming advantage
This was tho year when, after triumphing in
a Presidential election, tho party iu power
usually loses its doubtful States. Tho many
blunders of Goneral Grant's administration
had spread demoralization through tho ranks
of his supporters. Looking to the particular
States where tho trial was to occur, wo soe
that Governor Geary had, for some reason,
provoked the enmity of powerful leaders of
the Republican party in Pennsylvania, and
was therefore a weak candidate; whila Pendle
ton was tho idol of tho Ohio Democrats, was
deservedly popular with the masses of the
people, nnd being a prospective candidate for
the Presidency, tho most streuuous efforts
were made by his followers to carry him into
tho Executive chair of tho State.
Nor did tho Democracy of those two States
lack confidence iu their success iu thi3
struggle. They went into tho contest ap
parently sure of victory, the election of
Packer being steadily predicted by their
organs, while Peudletou himself, a man not
given to boasting, decluved nil through tho
canvass that he should be chosen Governor of
Ohio by L'0,000 majority. And now the re
sult is before us in tho defeat of each of theso
strong candidates, with all thoir colleagues on
the State tickets, by moderate but significant
majorities. As to Iowa, though tho Demo
crats did not anticipate success, beoauso of
tho strong hold wbiyii (he Kopubliean party
has always maintained there, they did expeat
to hugely reduce its majority, wherer.s in fact
they have scarcely diiiiiuished it at all.
Why have the Democrats sa signally failed
in achieving tho resulvs they anticipated in
these important elections? Tho auswer is
obvious. To quota tho language used by tho
E-cprcxs Borne days since, they have boon try
ing to race with dead horses, and, of course,
they have tailed to reach the goal. More
than this, they have thrust tho offensive re
mains of their dead btoods in tho faces of
tho people, who havo turned away from them
with loathing and disgust. In a word, and
without a figure, the Democratic leaders in
these three States mado the utteenth amend
ment one of the maiu issues in tho recent
contests, and they have been robuked by de
feats as unexpected as they are instructive.
These results should impress npou tno
minds of the honest masses of tho Democracy
a serious lesson. They should teach them to
discard the counsels of aristocratic and reac
tionary journals and blind and cowardly poli
ticians, and induce them to restore to the
creed of tho party the liberal and progressive
principles of Jefferson and Jackson, and to
select as their loaders statesmen who have
wisdom enough to discern tho signs of tho
times and courage enough to act accordingly.
TnE DICK TURPINS OF JOURNALISM
From tlte S. Y. Tivtes. '
Readers who havo lingered over tho ani
mated and instructive biography of tho
original Richard Tiu-pin will remember that,
umong the other pleasing habits ot that high
principled gentleman, was ono which gave
innkeepers no little concern. When hunger
or thirst assailed Mr. luvpin, it was his wont
to make the bost of his way to some tavern
where he knew ho could count on tho best of
fare, and order a repast fit for the gods, wash
ing it down with tho best wines tho cellar
could furnish. The host naturally was do
lighted with his customer until it came to tha
hour of settling. 'I hen his face grew longer
than his bill, for Turpin was too much in
advunce of his ago to pay for anything ho
wanted. Although Turpin is no moro, his
convenient system still nourishes, with sun
dry improvements suggested by tho progress
01 civilization.
u is uangerous to "touow the road in
these days, but it is not dangerous to follow
journalism, and it has been found quite pos
Bible to combine tha two callings in a most
advantageous manner. The field open to tho
journalist is far wider than the highwayman
could ever boust of. The latter could onlv
hope to stop a coach or rirlo tho pockets of a
stray traveller. The former may make money
uu uujr iouy oy assailing private reputations,
or ny selling ms pen to tho highest bidder,
J. here is no loss of character involved in thti
sort ot work, for a man soldoui performs it
until he has no loncor anv character to lnn
It does not hin t the modern Di ;k I'urpin to
tell hiui that his honesty and morals are not
absolutely without blemish.
In the now number of tho National Quar
terly licoicm there is an arlicij In which lite
rary brigandage 01 a humbler kind is exposdJ.
The writer is dwelling
upo:i the sc;iudaloiH
rwiiiTrtuitii i.. i : . i .
"v""."".,, " wu:u yue;;ts are Huujooted in
many hotels, nnd the high prices they are
compelled to pay for aboiuinublo food aal
accommodation. How is it that such hotels
get custom at all? The answer of the revie wer
a very insuiiiuient one, for a roa-ton we
Khali presently state is that the proprietor
wts a puff or two inserted in journals which
nve idways ready to sell every inch of their
space for "a consideration." The "coiro
Hpondont" is feasted to his hout's coa'-eut,
aul thru iu the fulness of his stomach ho
speaks praises. Tho reviewer exompts tho
New York Time aud another journal froiu
his criticisms, but we must assume that
ho is right in asserting that thero are public
writers who pillngo hotel-keepers, sometimes
without oven giving tho dirty putt expected
in return for their victuals. The system is,
indeed, pushed still further. Thero are
"critics" who sell themselves for a triae less
than a cood plato of broad and meat, aud
praii-e or blamo at the bidding of their owners.
Others manage to got ciotucs as well as food
for nothing if dishonor is nothing. If they
are ref used they go away and bark, most of
them being unable to bito. The man or
woman who pays them bost has tho benefit of
their services. They hiro themselves out just
as in Bomo parts of tho world a "strictly con
fidential" bravo or assassin may bo engaged
lor ono or two iinie ions wnicn romuro a
sharp knifo and a blunt conscience.
Journalism if tho name tuvxt bo derrrndod
by using it in connection with rascality of
this description can only bo purified from
this taint by hotel keepers aud others open
ing their eyes to ono great fact, namely, that
the publin aro too wise to be juggled by
either tho mendacious calumnies or tho
equally corrupt praises of dishonest writers.
Here, perhaps, more than in anv other com
munity, tho people judge for thomselves, and
decline to be victimized by the adventurers
who try to dictate to them what hotels they
shidl patronize or what clothes they shall
wear. Had hotels aro not usod became news
papers puff them, but bocauso thoro aro no
good hotels tn the same place. Any one who
can otfor the public honest valuo for honest
money, or who in an official station performs
his duties faithfully, has nothing to fear from
Grub street. Does any sane person think
the worse of President Grant becauso ho is
italumniated by persons who tried to coerce
him into giving them offices for which they
were unfit? Attacks from suck sources
really advance him in public esteem. It
is only truth which is powerful. Let thoso
who court dishonest writers, or those who
fear them, take this fact to heart, and wo
shall hear leas of scandals suoh as thoso which
tho JVationol Quarterly reviewer brings to
our notice.
AFTER THE NEXT CENSUS-WIIAT?
Frvm the N. Y. World.
Wr6 have little hopo of any far-reachin.or po
litical and financial reforms until after the
census of '(): but we look forward with
'reat confidence to the next decade. During
the next ten years our politics will turn upon
questions of finance, currency, and taxation;
aud, owing to the new geographical distribu
tion of political power, the inrluenco of tho
Wes,t in our politics will be predominant.
Tho population of the New England States is
nearly stationary; in none of the States east
ot tho Aitegheuies has tho progress ot popu
lation kept pace with the marvellous growth
of the free and expansive West. Had it not
been for the war, the influence of tho West in
this decade (l.S;0-70) would have been fa
greater; tho uppermost idea iu tha Western
n.ind being ordinarily material and industrial
development an idea which has been
eclipKod and overborne by tho great civil con
vulsion consequent on tho Presidential elec
tion of 18(10 tho year when the last census
was taken. Before the new apportionment of
Representatives on tho basis of the next cen
sus, the engrossing questions ot thu decado
will have disappeared from our politics, and
the increased ascendancy of tho Wost will be
fully felt. "Westward the star of empire
takes its way;" and tho weight of tha section
in tho period between 170 r.nd 1SH0 will be
increased by tha accuinuLi.tions of tho two
preceding decades. In the present decade
the West has not wielded tho iuiluonco duo to
its increase of population from to is(50.
In questions purely financial tho West and
the South aro natural allies the chief in
dustry of both sections being agriculture
and the influence of tho South in national
politics has been practically abolished sinco
the census ot 1H(!. Urn, during tho next
decade, tho South will bo in tho Union with
increased power. The South will have an in
creased representation in Congress in conse
quence of the abolition of slavery, which will
cause itc-fifths of its colorod population to
be counted, instead of M'ce-fifths as under
the last census. Tho weight of tho South in
tho national councils will thus be increased;
and, from similarity of interests, the South
will reinforce the West, and their joint in
fluence will operate as a unit. But the West
will take the load, aud tho increase of its
Representatives will enable it to dictate the
politics of the nation. After tho next census,
the will of the West cannot bo succossf ully
resisted; and all speculations respecting the
future courso of our politics will go widely
astray, nnloss they aro based on a correct
estimate of the tendencies of Western opinion.
There can be no doubt that tho predominant
sentiment of tho West is vigorously opposed
to a protective tariff. There can be no bet
ter proof of this than tho fact that froo-trade
doctrines are making rapid progress among
the Republicans of that section. Tho two
most popular, able, intluential, and widely cir
culated Republican journals iu tho West
the Chicago Tribune and Cincinnati Coiauwr-
ciitl are out-spoken, intrepid advocates of
tree trade. The interests ot that section eu
list it on the free-trude f.i.le. The West (as
well as its natural ally, tho South) is a com
munity of agriculturist ): that is to say, a com
munity of consumers ot minutaoturod goods,
and not of producers. It is the interest of all
consumers that goods should bo cheap; and it
is the professed object oi' protection to make
goods dear, in order that American manulae
turers may bo ablo to hold tho home market.
Tho West and the South aro reliably anti-
tariff; and, during the next decade, the com
bined West and South will have a controlling
majority in Congress the West gaining a
grent access of strength by tho growth ol its
population, aud the South by counting tho
whole of its colored population, instead of
three-tilths of it as hereto! ore. As the new
census is to bo taken next year, wa aro al
ready in the dawn of a great and final triumph
of lieo-trado principles in our tariff logisla
tion.
On the important questions conuected with
the national debt tho interests of tho West
and South aro also identical. A very small
proportion of the Government bonds is held
in nithnr Kection. The South has been pro-
eluded from purchasiu" them by its poverty
nnd its nrcssinr need of capital tor active
uses; and tho West by high rates of interest
which afford a moro proritablo employment
of capital than investment in Government
bonds. There can bo no party either in the
West or Somh that will favor tho bondholders
at tho expense of tho just interests of tho
nation.
On tho currency question, wo foar thut tho
inrluenco of the West will not bo salutary.
The West donires abundance of money; it
f-hrinks from a reduction of pru'os; it will
probably continue to oppose, as it has hitherto
successfully opposed, a contraction of the cur
rency with a view to the resumption of specie
payments, l'-ut resumption without contrac
tion is a demonstrated impossibility except
by ulteiing the coinage.
We fear also that the infltiunee of th? West
will not be favorable to State rights. Tiio
Western States have never, like (lie ol thir.
teen, occupied a position of Independent
sovereignty. Their history inclines thorn to
regard therusolves as the ere iturcs of tie
Federal Government, nnd not as its cm i.rrs.
