THE TRIBULATIONS OF FRANCE.
No country is so sensitive under an invasion
as France. Accustomed to make war on the
soil of her enemies, she becomes frantic
when they cross her frontiers and win victo
ries on her territory. The immediate occa
sion of the downfall of Louis XVI was his
refusal to consent to adequate measures for
the repulse of Austrian and Prussian invaders,
and the public indignation aroused by this
unpardonable offense quickly led to his exe
cution as well as his dethronement. While
the first Napoleon was leading millions to
slaughter on the fields of Italy, Prussia,
Austria, and Itussia, no man could or
dared make formidable opposition . to
his imperial mandates, but the instant he
was forced into a defensive attitude on the
soil of France his generals and his subser
vient Senate united in compelling him to ab
dicate. So, too, after Waterloo, when he left
a pathway open for a second invasion he
found the French Chambers suddenly con
verted from facile friends into implacable
foes. The present war has precipitated a
similar crisis in Paris. The Emperor has
barely been able, up to this time, to maintain
his ascendancy, while symptoms of a stern
determination to overthrow his dynasty are
multiplying on every side. The parliamen
tary warfare against him opened immediately
after the commencement of the present
session of the French Chambers. The
deputies of the Left, or opposition, submitted
a proposition setting forth that "inasmuch
as the incapacity of the Chief of State has
brought France into peril,' a Committee of
National Defense, to consist of fifteen mem
bers, shall be placed over all existing authori
ties, summon all citizens, and assume
supreme control of public affairs. The
announcement of this short and easy
method of squelching tne imperial marplot
elicited the indignant denunciations of
his friends, as well as the threatening xe
sponse that men who made such propositions
should be instantly shot. In the midst of the
excitement an adroit supporter of the empire
managed to turn the current of rage, for the
moment, against the ministry rather than
their master. Ollivier and his asso
ciates were offered up as sa
crifices for being only too faithful
in their obedience to Napoleon, in the despe
rate hope that their ejection from office
would temporarily appease the wrath of an
indignant people. The new Ministry, if any
reliance can be placed upon the consistency
of French politicians, is composed of even
more devoted Imperialists than its predeces
sors, as will be 6een by a sketch of its mem
bers which is published in another portion of
to-day's Telegraph; and despite his defeats
at the front Napoleon has apparently man
aged to outlive a most dangerous crisis at the
capitaL But, like his armies, he has merely
gained a momentary respite. Ilis own dread
of the future is indicated alike by his
avoidance of the dangerous precincts of
Paris as well as the reported transfer of the
young Prince Imperial to English . soil for
safety. The capital is seething with revolu
tionary feeling. Armed forces are summoned
to quell mobs, but already the National
Guard is evincing a disposition to fraternize
with the people rather than to punish them
for their enthusiastio devotion to liberty and
to France. Evidence accumulates that Napo
leon is personally responsible for the late dis
asters, and since the predominant purpose of
the nation is to avenge them Frenchmen
grow more anxious, hour after hour, to apply
the axe to the root of their dilemma, by de
stroying the Imperial dynasty. Another
serious defeat will give this sentiment
uncontrollable strength, and nothing can
destroy it but a speedy change in the fortunes
of the war. Napoleon has been warned again
and again that the French would not submit
to conjoined despotism and defeat, and his
proved inability to cope with foreign foes
will be a sure presage of the triumph of his
domestic enemies. Meanwhile the French,
though sorely distracted by political dissen
sions, and though the enemy are thundering
at their gates, do not seem to have lost their
spirit, as a law providing for the national de
fense, which embraces the enrolment of all
unmarried men between the ages of 25 and
3.", was adopted yesterday by a unanimous
vote of the Chambers, amid prolonged ap
plause; and the exclamation made amid the ex
citement, "Now, let Prussia look us in the
'face!" is fir indication 'of the
feelings this aotion is likely to awaken in a
land teeming with the recollection of past
military glory and present humiliation. The
roar of an angry people will be heard above
the din of clamorous politicians demanding
victory at any price. If the Republican
loaders prove that they alone can secure it,
the mantle of power will fall upon their
phoulAersj if the Orleaniata demonstrate that
they are best able to recapture and regild the
French eagles, they may regain the throne
lost by their father; and if Napoleon does not
quickly reburnish his tarnished reputation he
must share the fate of his dis
graced predecessors. The great difficulty
of improvising ,a new programme at this
moment is to find a leader gifted with suffi
cient genius to insure its suocess. Pablio
opinion seems to point to General Trochu as
the man most likely to fulfil the hard condi
tions imposed by the triumphant advance of
victorious Germany and the dissensions of
distracted France, and one of the possibili
ties of the thick-coming future is that he may
be proclaimed dictator. If he shows in battle
that his reputation is based on a solid founda
tion, this probability may quickly ripen into
an accomplished fact. The army is clamor
ing for generals whom it can trust, and the
grand chorus of the nation will give irre
sistible force to this demand.
THE QUEEN'S SPEECH.
Thx British Parliament was yesterday pro
rogued until the 27th of October, the minis
terial document known as the Queen's
speech being read by the Lord Chancellor
in the absence of her Majesty, who we be
lieve is enjoying herself at her summer resi
dence on the Isle of Wight, and letting poli
tics take care of themselves, so far as she is
concerned, at least. The speeches of the
Queen are not as a general rule particularly
edifying, and this one is flatter and more un
profitable than ever. The great topics of
the day are scarcely more than referred to,
and with regard to the great war that has
broken out between France and Prussia, her
Majesty has little to say except that she wit
nesses it with pain and regret, and
that her best efforts have been made to avert
the calamity. The only really significant
passage in the speech is that which states
that constant and anxious attention will be
directed to the strict observance of the rights
of neutrality, and that every fitting endeavor
will be made to check the operation of causes
leading to the enlargement of the arena of
conflict. This may mean much or nothing,
but taken in connection with the announce
ment that treaties identical in form, which
will give additional security to Belgium
against the hazards of war on her frontier,
have been tendered to the belligerent powers,
it may be taken as an indication of the deter
mination of the British Government to keep
out of the fight if it can, but to
assure the neutrality of Belgium
under any, contingency. The pro
rogation of Parliament at this juncture
is owing to the doubtful and uncertain state
of mind in which Mr. Gladstone finds himself
with regard to affairs on the Continent. The
sudden outbreak of war between France and
Prussia took the British ministry by surprise,
and Mr. Gladstone showed a decided disposi
tion to temporize and to favor Napoleon while
the national sympathies were with Prussia,
and an active policy that would make Eng
land's influence felt on the Continent was de
manded. The publication of the proposed
secret treaty, and the moral certainty that
Napoleon was the originator of it, forced Mr.
Gladstone to make an advance in the direction
of the public sentiment, and to take measures
for securing the independence of Belgium.
The Ministry, however, has to a great ex
tent lost the confidence of the nation, and
the prorogation of Parliament was determined
npon to avoid the necessity of answering un
pleasant questions on the floor of the House
of Commons. It was a measure of personal
safety, and it may give the Gladstone Ministry
a few months lease of power; but if the tre
mendous European revolution which now
seems . imminent bursts during the recess,
Parliament when it reassembles in the fall
will be likely to demand that a man of quicker
brain and firmer grasp than Mr. Gladstone
shall be placed at the helm to represent the
interests of England.
PENSION FRAUDS.
The Pension Bureau, if the reports from
Washington are to be believed, has at last
taken some active steps to procure the arrest
and punishment of the "Honorable" Roderick
R. Butler, of Tennessee, for forgery and
fraud. It has now been some weeks
since these performances of this model Con
gressmen were brought to light, and it may
not be impertinent for ns to inquire why he
was not arrested when his guilt was first dis
covered? The sale of a cadetship in his gift,
which the House of Representatives extenu
ated by letting him off with a vote of cen
sure, appears to have been the least of his
offenses, and the crimes with whieh be is now
charged will in all probability put him in
the Penitentiary for a term of years, pro
vided he does not escape the penalty of the
law by leaving for parts unknown. That he
has not done this long ago is not to the credit
of the Pension Bureau, and it can only be
accounted for from the fact that Butler ima
gines the influences which enabled him to
escape punishment for selling a cadetship will 1
interpose between him and the penalties due
for his greater crimes. The peculiar tactics of
the Pension Bureau in this and other instances
of somewhat similar character are not such
as to inspire the people of the country with
much confidence in its management, fn this
very city we have the case of Colonel
Forbes, against whom charges of a
very grave character were made, and
who by his own admission is guilty of
discounting the claims of the pensioners on
his pay-rolls at usurious rates. In defiance of
the well-known facts Colonel Forbes has not
been removed, and by permitting him to re
tain his office the Pension Bureau tacitly en
dorses all his actions in the past and grant
him free permission to bleed the pensioners
to the full extent of his desires in the future.
It is very evident that something is radically
wrong somewhere, and the publio have a right
to know who is to blame for permitting wan
ton violation i of the law to go practically un
punished. Is the Commissioner of Pensions
dishonest or merely incapable?
r The announcement that the Prince Imperial
has arrived in London, with the jewels and
valuables of the Empress, is one of the most
"significant of the hour. The flight of the
boy who was accepted by the Frenoh people
but a few months ago as . their, future Empe
ror was apparently not known yesterday in
Paris, but it will be impossible to keep it
concealed for any great length of time, and
it will certainly be taken by a large portion
of the population as a precursor to the down
fall of the whole Bonaparte' dynasty. London
is undoubtedly a better place for the poor fad
than Paris just at this juncture, but the con
trast between his position now and that of a
few days ago, when he was receiving
his "baptism of fire" and picking
up a bullet for a keepsake in
sight of a weeping army, is somewhat pitiful.
The maternal affection of the Empress un
doubtedly triumphed over all considerations
of state policy in this instance, and although
the Emperor was willing to expose "Louis"
to the bullets of the Prussians, his mother
evidently dreads having him fall into the
hands of the Parisian mob. Like most of the
imperial movements of late, it was a mistake,
however, from a political point of view, for if
the Emperor expects to keep possession of
his throne, it is absolutely essential that he
and all his family should show themselves
bold, resolute, and defiant in the face of
every danger, and the evidenoes of panic
shown by the Empress in sending her son
out of the country will be almost as likely to
damage her husband's cause as another vic
tory for the Prussians.
J. H. Stpheb, the Louisiana carpet-bagger,
has been renominated for Congress by the
Republican Convention of that State. Sypher,
it will be recollected, is the individual who
figured in the Congressional investigation last
March with reference to the sale of cadet
ships, having asked the sum of $2.00
for an appointment in his gift, and who
only did not take the money because he could
not get it. That such a man as this should
be one of the most prominent representatives
of the Republican party in Louisiana is a dis
grace, and every honest man in the country
would rather see a decent Rebel elected to the
House of Representatives from the
First Congressional district of Louisiana
than a loyalist like Sypher, who considers his
loyalty just so much stock in trade, to be
disposed of for the benefit of his bank
account. It is not to be wondered at that
the work of reconstruction is difficult when
such specimens as Sypher and Whittemore
are the managers of the Republican party in
the South, and the reconstruction can never
be satisfactorily accomplished until the whole
tribe of carpet-baggers are repudiated by the
Republicans at the North. It is the support
that these men have received and do receive
from the North that enables them to obtain
any foothold whatever in the late Rebel
States, and we hope that the leaders of the
Republican party will have manliness and
sense of decency enough to decline giving
any further countenance to them.
CHARLES DICKENS' WILL.
A Severe Criticism on the Great Novelist "The
Pride Which Ape. iluutUlty."
From the London Saturday Review.
Mr. Dickens' will stands on different grounds, and
as the world's Judgment has been Invoked on its
merits, we must say that It strikes us as being rather
a palniul document. The natural reluctance to say
tins is diminished by the fact that the will was
written to the world. Mr. Dickens' last
charge to mankind Is of the nature of
a solemn rescript, urbi et orbi, 'quite as
much as a testamentary document It is a piece jus
tificative; which implies that there Is something to
justify. It is not the first time that Mr. Dickens nas
Invited the whole world to survey his private and
domestic concerns. His will is the complement of
that strange document which Mr. Dickens pub
lishedand which Messrs. Bradbury A Evans would
not allow to be published in a periodical of which he
was editor and they were proprietors when he was
separated from his wife. As to the rights or wrongs
of that separation, or rather what led to it,
we pronounce no judgment, because we
have no means of forming a judgment. Anyhow the
Incident furnished a remarkable absence of good
taste and, as most people thought, of good feeling,
and all on one side. Mr. Dickens paraded his do
mestic life to the world ; Mrs. Dickens from that day
to this has kept a modest and creditable silence.
That Mr. Dickens had wrougs we shall neither deny
nor attirm; t,hat Mrs. Dickens had none, It would be
hard to believe. One wrong she certainly had ; she
was assailed by her huBband In publio. Mr. Dickens
might have had justice all on his side; we do not
say that he bad not ; but generosity on that occasion
lie aid not display. And generosity he
hag not displayed in his dying testament.
With the worst taste, Mr. Dickens, when
in the vigor of life, affronted his wife
by making his married life public property; anl
dying, he has repeated. the wrong and offense, l'ro
luse and unctuous and stilted In his expressions of
gratitude to his wife's sister, liberal in the provision
that he has made for that lady, not forgetful of
another lady, he has reduced his wife's Income by
one-half after his death, with something of a self
laudatory anuouueement that he has already been
fur too generous to her during his life. He leaves
to his wife, as an annuity, the Interest of 4000
coupled with the boastful reminder that he has since
their separation allowed her 600. a year. We
hardly call this "brave" or "earnest." If Mr. Dickens
had been annoyed by his wife temper, or lack of
sympathy with his noble nature, some lingering
touch of the human kindness of which we are told
that be Is the evangelist might have warmed his
heart or his pen when he came to speak of the
mother of his children with the word of a dying,
man. Ilia heart might be ail charity and all love to
the whole human race, but It was chilly enough to
one dispossessed lady, that lady his own wife who,
whether she has wrongs or Borrows, at least kept
them to herself. To Miss Teruan and Miss Hogarth
Mr. Dickens very likely has duties, and he
has cheerfully receguized them by word and
deed. Are we to believe that all his du
ties to bis wife were summed up by giving
her an annuity without a single word of recognition,
or, If it were needed, of forgiveness and reconcilia
tion? After saying this, which only a sense of duty,
stimulated by the provocation offered by Mr.
Dickens' worshippers, has extorted from us, we
shall not waste our time in exposing the bad taste
of what the illustrious testator inserts in bis will
about his funeral. The ostentation of unostenta
tiouBness Is as offensive as the display of the most
exaggerated love of posthumous honors and expen
sive obsequies ; and among the social vices which
Mr. Dickens' works have exposed, the pride which
apes humility is rather curiously illustrated In his
death.

P. HEVNEB, Sole Proprietor, for the State of Pennsylvania, of the 1
CELEBRATED "P. P." WHISKIEG,
Nog. 246 S. FRONT and I 17 DOCK St., Phlla.
It has been clearly demonstrated that all Liquors distilled by the ordinary methods contain
a very large percentage of imparities; the degree of heat that must necessarily be em
ployed, decomposing, disengaging and vaporizing all the baneful elements and noxious
gases contained in the mash, which when condensed form the deleterious fusel oil so detri
mental to life and health; but, when indulged 1 in to excess, the result is Brain Fever, De
lirium Tremens, Apoplexy, Insanity, etc. Consequently Liquors, as ordinarily distilled, are '
apt, even when only used sparingly as a stimulant, to create Nausea, Sick lleadache. In
flammation, and Kidney Diseases.
The 4T. P." Whiskies, on the contrary, "stimulate and cheer" withdut unduly exciting
the brain or injuring the coats of the Btomach. They are distilled from the choicest prodaot
of the Cereals in taccuo, the pressure of the atmosphere being reduced from l.r lbs. to 2
lbs. to the square inch; consequently a temperature of only about 90 degrees of heat is re.
qnired in the operation, The process is entirely mechanical, no ACIDS, CIIAKCOAL
ESSENCES, EXTRACTS, DRUGS OK CHEMICALS OF ANY DESCRIPTION BEING
USED hence the "P.P." Whiskies are not only delicate in flavor, but pure, wholesome,
and innocuous as a beverage, retaining in simple purity the flavor of the cereals from whloh
they were distilled.
The "P. P." Whiskies have been tested by some of the most eminent of the Medical
Faculty, by Analytical Chemists, and by the best judges of Liquors in the United States,
and pronounced perfectly pure and wfiolesome, and especially desirable for Family use and
Medical purposes.
Members of the medical faculty, the trade, and the publio generally are cordially invited
to call and inspect the machinery and process, and examine the liquors and the impurities
extracted, at the Refinery and Warerooms, Nos. 24G South FRONT and 117 DOCK Street
