THE FRENCH GOVERNMENT: The political changes effected in France by the war are scarcely less striking than the military results. In name Napoleon still governs, indirectly, but in fact he has ceased to be the ruler of the nation, and whether he is formally deposed or not, he can never again bend the nation to his imperial will. The French will never forgive him for plunging the country into a war for which it was totally unprepared, and even the most ardent admirers of Napoleon the Great must feel that it would be suicidal folly to re endow Napoleon the Little with supreme power. When he went to the front he made the Empress Regent and left Ollivier to act as Prime Minister. The tidings of the first Prussian victories led immediately to a parliamentary defeat of this programme, and to the substi tution of Palikao for Ollivier. Since then, increasing exigencies have led to additional modifications, which have greatly weakened imperial authority. General Trochu has been made Governor of Paris with full powers, and he has evinced a strong disposition to disregard all the imperial traditions, and to reverse in every essential particular the im perial policy. lie has acted as the friend of Napoleon's enemies, relieving the republi can journals of their interdictions, and has made an earnest effort to conoentrate the energies of all parties in the one great task of making the capital impreg nable to the assaults of the invaders. Mean while the opposition in the Corps LegiBlatif to Palikao has become scarcely less tumultu ous than the former opposition to Ollivier, and finally, by way of appeasing it, a legisla tive committee has been permitted to share executive power this movement being prac Uoilly a new blow to absolutism. The fact that M. Theirs is one of the members of this committee adds greatly to the significance of its appointment. He is the statesman, per excellence, of France, and at the same time the great French champion of parlia mentary government. Events have proved that he was substantially right in the position he assumed on all the leading question of the last ten years. lie de neunced the disastrous Mexican enterprise in advance; he declared in 186G that Napoleon was committing a fearful error by his polioy of non-intervention; and he warned the Cham bers in 1870 that France was not prepared for the present war. He has demonstrated in the most emphatio manner that Napoleon "has committed a series of blunders fatal to himself and fatal to the people he misgov eras." An) when we are told that this man, who bears to the Emperor the same relation that Thaddeus Stevens bore to Andrew John Son, shares governmental power by virtue of an Imperial decree, we cannot avoid the con clusion that Napoleon has become a mere figure-head in the Government, while abler and more tr us '.worthy men possess substan tial authority. The French Chambers and the leading French generals, more especially Bazaine and Troohu, are the real rulers of France to-day Napoleon made himself a ridiculous incubus in the French camps, and he scarcely dares return to the capital to face the populace he baa so wofully deceived. Let the campaign end as it will, he can make no new coup d'etat to recover the power he has already lost through his fatal incompetency. Even the imperialists would fear to trust him, and every other party of the Empire will strive to destroy his rule utterly as soon as a compe tent successor can be provided. IS IT CRUELTY OR KINDNESS f Fob many reasons we have doubted the tele graphic announcement, made a few days since, that Dr. Gihon (late private secretary to Governor Geary) had been appointed to succeed Robert Garseed, deceased, as Quar an1 ine Master at the Lazaretto. Those inte rested in the amiable Doctor and his bellige rent friend have felt much surprised and abtonisbed at this move on the political chesHboard. They very naturally ' inquire what is to become of the Topic, recently ushered into life at Ilarrisburg, and that lives, breathes, and has its being in the en ergy and presence of the aforesaid Dr. Gihon ? How ean it survive at the State capital and the Doctor live at Tinicum ? It seems impossible. As well expect luscious fruit and fragrant flower while darkness eLrouded the "glorious king of day." Why should the Doctor, therefore, tarn bis back upon this young and tender thing of his own planting, to accept bo uninviting a . position ? It is all a mystery. His predecessor at the Quaran tine grounds paid with life his devotion to duty. Does he long for martyrdom ? Has the base ingratitude of 'men in high places" driven him to this desperate resolve ? No! not The Doctor goes because the Gov ernor "tnaish&U him the way." Bat here gain is mystery. Why should the Oovernor send the Doctor away at this particular junc ture, when his going may sound the death knell of the Topic? What are to beoome of the Governor's aspirations for the Presi dency, if the breath should - go out of its nostrils? It alone, of all its contemporaries in the United States, has the sagacity to per ceive bis eminent fitness for that exalted place. Why should his hand strike the cruel blow? Why 'Bis feather on the ratal dart Thus wins the shad That shall quiver In the Tbpifi heart?" Let him be cold-blooded even as his ene mies pronounce him, he could not do all this. What! Gihon banished and the Topic en dangered! It is too much It is beyond belief. Some deep strategy underlies this movement on the part of his Excel lency. For be it remembered that whilst he may not be a "great War Governor," as was bis immaculate predecessor, he was, at least, a great warrior before he was Go vernor vide Life of "Stonewall Jackson, by George Munday). The grand strategy that baffled that distinguished and wily Rebel chief in the Valley still distinguishes our Governor from qrdinary mortals; and al though his movements may appear meaning less and sometimes ridiculous to the vulgar herd, there always lie hidden therein results that astonish and overwhelm when fully developed. From his enemies comes the suggestion that the appointment of this old and trusted friend to a position where the chances of an early departure to the "happy hunting grounds of the hereafter' are as, say, nine to one, arose from a desire on the part of his Excellency to bury some perhaps unpleasant secrets which of necessity had to be shared by this bosom friend, late "private secretary." This is too wicked and terrible even to think of, let alone dream of in a dark night. Mild as our Governor is in war and terrible in peace, this is too much even for him. Those who insinuate so vile a thing cannot be aware of the relations that have existed between these two. As was Damon to Pythias, so has Geary been to Gihon. Through the bloody fields of Mexico, through the wild of California, and daring our late civil war, as shadow follows substance so followed the Doctor his warrior friend. Sharing common dangers in war, they have been united in peace. As in glowing terms the Governor has "many a time and oft" recounted his hairbreadth escapes and mighty deeds by "flood and field," what more willing ears have drank in the burning words of un written history ? How Santa Anna bowed his head as the raven locks of Geary began to rise over the walls of the Montezumas; how "Stonewall" trembled as he heard his tread in the valley of the Shenandoah;' and how the war-battered veterans of Johnston and Hood turned pale as they saw the mane and tail of his black charger waving in the thickest of the fight. To all this our amiable friend the Doctor has listened a "thousand times . and more" and made no sign of weariness, although sometimes the "flesh was ready to faint and the heart to fail." The Governor surely can not forget all this self-sacrifice and devotion. Besides, the Doctor's living would but add to his chief's renown. With a bugle-note as clear as Roderick's of old, he could still proclaim the deeds that make "our Geary" great. The suggestion, therefore, is dismissed as emanat ing from the Evil One. The Governor cannot, does not desire that "Yellow Jack" should silence forever the music of that willing tongue that ever drops sweetest praises to his name. To a darkened understanding, to a limited comprehension, it may appear a doubtful or even a cruel compliment thus to thrust a con fiding friend into the very breath of a devour ing pestilence. But it will only exhibit in the end the wisdom of the one and the brave, devoted spirit of the other. The Governor would prove to an admiring Commonwealth what "sterling stuff make up these friends' of his, to whom he is boudd with "hooks of steel." In this light the motive that prompted the appointment cannot be doubted, save by the btupid or wilfully wicked. THE CHINESE QUESTION. On our sixth page will be found a letter from Hon. William D. Eelley to the Recording Secretary of the Science Council of the Order of United American Mechanics, which we commend to the attentive perusal of our readers as an able and impartial statement of the Chinese question. Hitherto the interest in this question has been almost entirely con fined to the Pacific coast; but it was not dim cult for any one who thoughtfully considered the matter a few years ago to foresee that the advent of hordes of Chinese to our shores would, in a very short time, cause complications of a most serious character, and that the Mongolian would succeed the African as the vexing figure in our national politios. The trouble hasommeneed almost sooner than was expected, and with the completion of the Pacifio Railroad we find ourselves confronted by the Chinese question, and called upon to decide it acoording to the principles of jus tice,' humanity, and liberty. It is not credit able that some of the prominent public men who have achieved whatever reputation they possess as the advocates of the rights of the negroes, should endeavor to shirk the respon sibility of meeting the Chinese question fairly and boldly for fear of exciting local preju dices. When such men as Charles Samner, Henry Wilson, Benjamin F. Butler, and Wendell Phillips, who have been in the front racks as negro emancipationists, turn their backs upon the Chinese for fear of falling into the bad graces of the New England mechanics, we begin to doubt whether they ever had any very deep regard for the welfare of the African. The Chinese question, unlike the slavery question, is not confined to any particular section of the country, and there is aooord ingly demmded for its proper eolation can did, impartial, and unprejudioedooodiieratioa by the people of all sections. It his just begun to be a source of agitation, and, after the warning we have had from slavery, it is of the highest importance that it should be grappled with resolutely at once, and decided, ao far as it can be decided, before it assumes overwhelming proportions. Judge Relley takes exactly the same view of the case that we do, and the gist of his argument is identical with the opinions that have been advanced several times of late in these columns. It is not proper, desirable, nor possible for us to prohibit Chinese im migration. To do so we would be obliged to ignore some of our most vaunted principles, and we would prevent the country from re ceiving what in very many respects promises to be a valuable addition to its population. It is, however, proper and right, and in full accordance with the most advanced ideas of the age, that we should offer a deolded re sistance to the importation of coolie laborers under contracts to serve for terms of years. This is only another form of slavery, and the men who abolished slavery should say at the very commencement that it must not and shall not be permitted. This is the stand that Judge Eelley takes, and as a succinct statement of his views we invite particular attention to the concluding paragraph of his etter, which is as follows:- "in rnndnnion. norm It me to aav arraln that I am not opposed to the voluntary emigration of the'pcople of China to this country. If leit to their own Im pulses, and to pay the coat of the voyage, those only will come who are of the better class,- and have by energy aud thrtit been able to accumulate a sum suftkieui to bring them here and start flieai In their new home ; but nnder a system iy wnu-n ea:n man's passage i paid, and hia subsistence while here assured, we will probably get the most ab ject and possibly only the must degraded deni zens or the populous cities oi uniua. Tiiose who come voluntarily and at their own cost will take an interest in their adopted country and Its institutions, acquire our language and autpt our nabits. sucn an immigration wouia, like that from other countries, atimulate our gene ral industries while lncreasng our productive power; it womd, by peopling our vast territories that now ue waste anu unproductive, en nance ine ae mand for labor by increasing our home market and the earning trade in which bo much of our capital ana so many oi our people are engaged, nut n may do more than this, it ia in the power of the Chinese to establish among us many new and profitable in dustries. Let me mention two the introduction of which would injure none and benefit all of us. I aiiuae to tea ana biik. if or tea we sena abroad about l0,ooo,6io annually and for silk about $20,000,000. We produce no tea, and are but ex perimenting In toe production of raw silk, of which we Import abont $2,600,000 per annum for the use of our infant silk manufactories at l'aterson, Hartford, and Philadelphia, in some of which, l may remark, machinery is now used that was once profitably em ployed in Coventry and Macclesfield. We have Im mense natural fields for the cultivation of both tea and silk, besides those of California and Arkansas, and the Chinese, the earliest and moat success ful cultivators of both, . would benefit us Im mensely by transferring their experience and patient industry to our country. 1 would not, there fore, exclude them by any general denunciation. But to protect the right even of foreigners to fair wages for work done in this country, and to avert the dangers threatened to American mechanics by the Importation of hordes of ooolles, I wonld pro vide by statute that any contract made In a foreign country by which a person proposing to emigrate to any State or Territory within the United States shall bind himself to labor for any term of years or months, at a rate of wages specified therein, shall be nun ana voia. ' Hon. Henby Johnson, 1 of Lycoming, has been nominated as the Republican candidate for State Senator in the Lycoming, Union, and Snyder district, after a protracted con test. Each oounty presented a candidate and adhered to him through many ballots. On the final ballot Mr. Johnson received five votes to four for Colonel A. C. Simpson, of Snyder. Mr. Johnson has served one term in the Senate, having been elected in 1801, and has ability and experience in his favor. The Democrats have twice carried the dis trict in the face of 500 Republican majority, first electing Judge Walls over Mr. Shreiner, and next electing the present Senator, Beck, over Mr. Wingert. The general debauchery of the Republican leaders of the district, and the struggles of candidates for United States Senator, have hitherto sacrificed the district; and may do so again. It is very clear that the district will not elect any man who can be controlled by the ring of political despe radoes who have so long been speculating at Ilarrisburg at the cost of the Republican party. The people will inquire whether Mr. Johnson is clean-handed. It is worthy of notice that the conferen ce made no declara tion in favor of reform. ' A cable telegram from Berlin states that the advance columns of the Prussian army have reached a point west of Chalons, while a despatch from Paris substantially confirms this report by saving that the invaders are near Sezanne. . A close approach to the capi tal bas thus been effected without opposition from MacMahon, and the real intentions of the French commanders can only be conjee tured. It seems probable that they will temporarily trust the defense of Paris to her fortifications, holding themselves in readiness to march to her resoue, or to attack the flank or rear of the invaders whenever a favorable opportunity may be presented. A policy similar to that we have indicated was practised with disastrous effect by the Rus sians against the French after the first Napo leon had marched to Moscow, and it is pos sible that the bitter lessons learned in i fearful defeat encountered when France was acting as an invader may now furnish in struction for a defensive campaign. The four-column-and-a-balf cable tele gram descriptive of the battle of Gravelotte which the New York Iribune published yes terday morning was a specimen of journalistio enterprise that has never been equalled. The accounts of the battle were most graphic and will be read with interest all over the country, Thus far the Tribune has easily surpassed all its rivals in the fullness and reliability of it war news. - FIXAXGE AND t'OHULUtb, Iyentvo Telboraph Orpioc.l TburMUf, Aqi .
