Entile Olllvler a President of (bo Couaell-t.eiieral or the Ttir. "I hasten to explain an apparent contradic tion in my course, in order to obtain from you that support without which I could not well fulfill my new functions. 1 Lave always main tained that great deliberative assemblies, such as the Corns Lcgislatif or the Councils-General, bLould elect their Presidents, and yet I have ac cepted the direction of your labor by virtue of un imperial decree. These are the reasons that governed me: In the lirst plate, the promise contained iu the remarkable statement of the nature of the senatus consuHc, that a law would be proposed giving the Councils-General the same right as ihe Corps Lcgldlatif to select their Presidents. I Lave next de sired to give a public and unequivocal adLesion to the new policy of the Government. There has existed, up to the pre sent, a radical difference between Franco and England which has perplexed and grieved the friends of liberty. In England, as in France, disagreements arise between the two elements, one called Public Opiuion and tho other Govcrn . incut. These disagreements intensify, contiuua, and embitter tho contc-t, as witli us, but with our neighbors animation never becomes revolt, persistence never degenerates into open rupture, nor bitterness turn to revolution, it is this ijuality of itself, more thau her wealth, com merce, coal mines, uud ships that England owes the moral authority she exercises in the world. where her language, if we do not take care, Is about to supplant our own. J low distant wo ar from these admirable public advantages! U would seem that we know only how to bo In different or precipitate, and are Ignorant of w hat it is to advance. It appears as if we knew not how to stand like men between adhesion without dignity. and re volt without justice, and that it is our destiny to oscillate without repose between revolutions und dictatorships. Iiosides, our pres tige sensibly diminishes. Can we still speak of the treat nation r is asked among peoples. How .-ur u ft nvi.iii't th:it it uill b,4 rmii'mliwl tn llri In inspire and lead that steady and prudent people wheu we uo not know now to posse-, rouuin, and direct ourselves. It depends on us in this moment to cause all humiliating contrast between Eneland und France to disappear. WhatTur got before, and Mlrabeau, after the Revolution, iiiild not oiitnin from Ionia XVI: whit. I :k Xt tfc uu ivuU'ijiiaw vuU.uuU en' Hi: iM.iiiciil from Louis XVIII and Charles X; what ntither Latnartinc, Toequcville. Thicra, (trillion Jiui-rot, nnd Dufaurc were able to ob tain from Louis Philippe, the Hundred-nnd-sixtcen arc receiving " from the wisdom of the Emperor. Instead of ' answering the mo derate demands of public opinion by a fatal resistance, the Emperor has responded by exten sive reforms nnd the liberal, bold, nnd compre hensive mnalus rotixulU' which constitutes the most radical chango that a Government has ever effected voluntarily and in full vigor. The Irreconcilable opposition endeavor to contend, but by the fact of declaring itself irreconcilable in ndvnnce, it is placed outside all credence, nnd will not bo slow to prove to its supporters tho truth of the prediction that Mirabeau addressed to the Jacobins of his time: "We are soon disrupted with those who are satisfied with nothing." THE WORLD'S FAIR. Tlio Proposed Intrrnnlional Fratlvnl nt St. I.oiila 1 he I'rojrrt Dcclnrrd FVnidule. The project of a World's Fair, to be held at St. Louis, seems to be in a forward state Tho )rmo rat of thnt city Las in its Tuesday's lssuo a long report of a meeting hold to consider the subject, from which we condense the following: Mr. Barclay submitted a report of facts col lected by the committee. He said the first meet ing in regard to the London exhibition was held June !!( i, IWJ, and contracts for buildings let July U0, 11S50, nnd the exhibition eomiv.eneed May 1, 1851. The original contract lor the building was W.10,000 the building to be taken away by the builder; or if taken by tho associa tion, to pay tl,(W5,000 for it. Tho exhibition lasted five months. Total number of visitors C,(iti:i,0!lti. Daily averago of visitors. 4:i,(X7. On one uayithero were !:j,2i4 visitors. Previous to the lid May the railroad receipts increased 7 per cent., and'up to the close of the exhibition 27 per cent. Admission fees, season tickets, A'M 3s. After August 1, gentlemen's tickets .11 8. ttd. At first tho admission was .11; nt the close 1 shilling. The receipts for subscriptions paid to April, X(!4,!!44: privilege to print catalogue, XliUOO: selling refreshments, 5000. The receipts up to the opening were 113,044. Prize fund, 20.000; expenses, 4.U0.943. The receipts for the whole were: For season tickets, $:i'.8.050; nt doors, $1,784,040; at retiring-room, .tlU.lU.j. The total receipts were t2,.7SS,315. The New York Crystal Palace Association was incorporated March 11, 1S52. Exhibition opened, on the ad of May, 185:$. It was a financial fail ure. The amount raised to start it was between 4:200,000 and 300,000. It was suggested that tho proper locntion for the buildings was the ground west of the Fair Grounds. Mr. Smith said the financial question was the first thing to be settled, and moved that a sub committee be appointed to raise subscriptions. Mr. Darret offered the following resolution; Ibfolcvd, That the Chair appoint a committee of three to draft a bill donating tho sum of $'250,0iO on the part of the State, and autho rizing the city aud county of St. Louis to sub scribe the sum Of 5250,000 towards holding a World's Fair in the city of St. Louis, at such time as the Congress of the United States may direct, aud providing that the Congress of the United States shall instruct tlio ministers and representatives of the United Mates in all for eign countries to notify the authorities of such countries that the same has the official sanction of the Government of the United States of America. ?vor Cole said there was one obiecticn to the resolution, and that is asking help from any body. We should be able to buy the Fair Grounds and hold the fair and make two mil lions out of it. If you let the city nnd county take 6tock and get their pro rata of dividends, it would be better, lie was willing to take $ 10,000 in stock, and would put his natno down at once, This is a money-making enterprise, nnd there is a great deal ot money in it. It will be of great benefit to Illinois, and Iowa, and Missouri. This is one of the sure things, lie wanted it done in a big W estern style. W ecan. if necessary, build a hotel bigger than the Lin dell to accommodate the people who may come 10 mc iair. Mr. Filley offered the following as a substi tute: Jic.iolvt'd, That the committee appointed to consider the feasibility of holding a World's fair tteem me same not only icasibie, but practicable nnd desirable. Hi sotreii, 1 hat a committee of live be appointed by the Chair to draft articles of incorporation creating a World's Fair Association, with a capi tal ot $1,000,000, to be submitted to a mass meeting to be held on the third January, at the Southern Hotel, nt Tj.j' o'clock P. M., to inaugu rate and perfect arrangements for holding such a rair in the city ot fct. louib in the year It was suggested that the Fair should bo held in 1871. It wns agreed to substitute 1871, and the reso lution was adopted. MARINE TELEGRAPH. For additional Marine A'ewa see First Pwie ALMANAC FOR PHILADELPHIA TU1S DAV.
