1'IIC REVOLUTION IN EUROPE AND
THE DIFFICULTY OF KINO WILLIAM.
P ror the X. r. Brrali.
That far-sighted and flexible Btatesinm,
Penjamin Disraeli, deRcribed exactly the
situation of Europe when he spoke to the
Buckinghamshire yeomen of "vanlshiug
empires and rising republics." True, he
qualified this expression, to soothe and flatter
the English aristocracy, iy saying that
England, baring made Parliamentary and
other reforms, all oppertnnities of internal
disqnitt were removed, and that she was now
in a condition to witness unmoved the creat
revolution that is going on in other parts of
Europe. This expression of "vanishing em
pires and rising republics" was a bold one for
a Tory statesman and the leader of the Tory
party to titter; but it stated the truth, and
Mr. Dinraeli is too fearless and too much im
bued with the spirit of the age to conceal it.
His words, qualified as they were by the
assertion that England would remain un
moved, have the ring of keen satire,
and in the depths of his heart he
probably felt that. No man compre
hends better the popular movements and ten
dencies of the age, and the import of the
great public demonstrations in London and
other parts of England in favor of the French
republic has not escaped his notice. What
ever he may say to quiet the monarchists and
aristocracy of England about their safety in
consequence of the modicum of reform
granted to the people, he knows very well
that the revolution is taking deep root in
Great Britain. He must know that the aris
tocracy of England is the most haughty and
exclusive in Europe, that no monarchy is
more wedded to dynastic rule and privileges,
and that the mass of the people have little to
say in the Government. With all his pre
tended Tory proclivities we rather think he
contemplates the progress of revolution in
England, and is casting an anchor to wind
ward, so that he may take the helm as the
leader and regulator of the democracy. At
any rate, England has felt the impulse of the
revolutionary movement of the day, and must
march with it.
But interesting as the situation of England
is. that of the Continent is more so. The
revolutionary movements there are on the
grandest soale. Nothing in history is com
parable to them. They eclipse that extra
ordinary movement of the first French revo
lution, or of that more general one in IMS.
Society is moved to its very depth. And all
this within a few weeks. The political, moral,
social, and the other elements of society are
in fermentation. The stupendous war be
tween Germany and France has let loose all
the forces of civilization and has brought
into agitation all the ideas of ancient and
modern times. Papal sovereignty, which has
existed over a thousand years, is going down
nnder it. The Latin race in the south of
Europe, in France, Italy, and Spain, .is deeply
Imbued with republican and democratic
idea, and nnder the impulse of the war is
developing republican institutions. Even
in Germany the first mutterings of revolu
tion are heard. Notwithstanding their pre
sent admiration of King William, who has
brought bo much glory and strength to Ger
many, the tone of the people ia changing
toward France since she has proclaimed the
republic. Expressions of sympathy are already
heard. How could it be otherwise ? In 1848,
when the revolution in Paris stirred up the
democratic elements of Europe, every State
and great city of Germany were intensely
agitated. The people who rose and demanded
republican institutions then cannot be indif
ferent now. The telegraph and publio press
Lave done a great deal since that time to edu
cate the people in their rights on political
matters. These mighty agents of modern
civilization convey intelligence rapidly to
every man of the wonderful events that are
transpiring and teach all to inquire into the
causes and principles that underlie and are
developed by them. We cannot suppose,
therefore, the revolution will be arrested.
The probability is it will spread farther and
wider.
From this point of view we can readily see
the difficulty which the King of Prussia is
in. He has raised or rather the events of
the war have raisedf what to him is a mon
strous spectre. He, the absolutist monarch,
wLo, when Crown Prince of Prussia, waged
such relentless war against the revolutionary
movements of 18-ta, cannot but look with
alaim upon the repnblio in France and the
tendency, as a consequence, to republicanism
throughout Europe. The object of the war
as first proclaimed, the subjugation of the
Bonapartes, is accomplished. The French
republio is willing nay, anxious to make
feae; yet he follows up his victories relent
essly, and now threatens Paris itself. He is
aveine to make peace with the republio
because he hates and fear republicanism; yet
there is no other government than that of the
republic in France. Here is his dilemma. It
would not be surprising if the reports of his
iu&anity should prove true before long, con
sidering the difficulty he is in and the extra
ordinary stress upon his mind.
Reports come thick from Europe that King
William contemplates restoring the Orleans
family, and that he will not, under any cir
cumstance?, treat with the Republican Gov
ernment. While we have no doubt he would
be glad to solve the question in this way we
can hardly think be will venture to force a
monarchy upon the French people a mon
archy that but few are willing to accept at
the point of an enemy's bayonets. These re
ports, as well as most of those about restoring
the Bonaparte8, come probably from the
royalists and imperialists, with a view of
operating on publio sentiment. Then, as to
replacing Napoleon on the throne or restoring
the regency, with a view to make a treaty of
peace, that seems more impracticable and
preposterous still. How can the King of
Prussia imagine the French people will sub
mit to a dynasty that has disgraced and
ruined France? M. Picard, the present
Minister of Finance in France, in a very in
teresting conversation with a correspondent
of the Herald, which we published on Thurs
day last, said: 'The empire, now defunct,
Las left France without an army, left her
without arms and without money." Agava,
he said, this deplorable war "was provoked
by an empire and imperialist," and that the
republio would gladly retreat by the arrange
ment of an honorable peace. Then both the
Emperor and the Regency virtually ab
dioated, fled and left unhappy France
to Ler fate. Could such a Government
be forgiven? Could the French people
accept it again ? The whole world would
despise tnein and they would despise them
selves if they were to aecept it. The Kingof
Prussia ought to know that any Govern
lutut torcea upon l'rauctt by the bayonets o
Lis soldiers could not stand. When his ar
mies would be withdrawn he would leave
behind a leeacy of revolution, and this revo
lution would react with terrible power upon
Germany and shake the Prussian throne itself.
The only safety both for France and the
Prussian King, and the only chance of perma
nent peace, is for the King to recognize and
treat with the French republic. Ife cannot
overthrow the republican sentiment of the
acre, and if he obstinately attempts to ao so.
he, with other crowned heads, may soon fall
as Napoleon has fallen.
WISDOM FOR THE DAY.
From the K. F. Sun.
The downfall of slavery in America, of serf
doni in Russia, and of imperialism in France
are the three great humanitarian achieve
ments of the century, majestical landmarks
in the progress of the rights of man. The
degradation of labor and of the working
masses of mankind is the alpha, and the
omega of all tyranny, whether of the landed
monopolists in Russia or in England, or of
the despot who now bites the dust before Ger
man civilization. Wars like those fought in
our country, and like the one now progressing
in Europe, are redeemed from barbarism by
extirpating the enemies of human progress,
and by culminating in positive conquests for
the emancipation of the masses from the
thraldom of oppression arid ignorance. The
feudal theory of vesting all the goods of the
earth, and ail the blessings of knowledge and
culture, in a few powerful, fashionable, and
privileged people, still lingers on in the
world, and holds its place in the traditions of
politics and legislation. It is inti
mately interwoven with human selfishness,
and commends itself to the imagination by
the glitter and the power of the privileged
classes.
But Christianity has been from its very
foundation at war with this pagan conception
of life. The emancipation of humanity from
slavery, serfdom, and the one-man power
illustrates this protest of the Christian relU
gion against the overwhelming tyranny of
strong, ambitious, and unscrupulous men
and women, and holds out to the toiling
masses of mankind greater blessings of pros
perity and ol moral and mental culture. It
is to little purpose to draw invidious con
trasts between the Latin and the Teutonic
races, and to point to the fact that the former
are rather controlled by sentimentality and
lancv, and tne latter by principle and reason.
one favoring a fictitious and the other a sub
stantial civilization. Instead of widening
tnis intrinsio variation in tne natural en
dowments of various countries by animosities
and recriminations, the mission of the dawn
ing era is manifestly to harmonize these
diff erences by education and liberty all over
the world. But all political and educational
institutions are dead failures, unless they
tend to curb the power of the privileged few,
and to promote the happiness of the people
at large.
The new republic in France, too, will soon
be doomed to confusion and shame, unless it
applies itself to emancipate the Preach
peasantry and laborers from the curse of ig
norance, and to consolidate the power of the
nation by elevating the culture and the pros
perity of all its members. The degradation
of the people, the demoralization of the upper
and middle classes, and the benighted con
dition of the laborers constituted the cause
of Napoleon's successful usurpation of
absolute power for nearly a generation,
as well as of the defects of the French
armies. Soldiers are drawn ' from
the people; and the German people are edu
cated and the French are not. How then
could they hope to cope against an immensely
superior array of numbers as well as of
knowledge t The secret of success in our
civil war was it not rather in the intelli
gence and spirit of the masses of our citizen
soldiers than in the prowess of one or the
other general ? It is evident that nations are
strong and powerful only in proportion as
enlightenment, prosperity, and the spirit of
independence pervade the whole people.
under isapoieoD, tne real estate specula
tors, stock exchange gamblers, and moneyed
gentry oi pans took the place ot the aris
tocracy of birth. Their supremacy was even
more noxious than the frivolity and reckless
ness of the old nobles. It is difficult to say
which was most disgusting, the rottenness of
tne fashionable world, the cowardice and
servility of the middle ranks, or the debase-
ment, ignorance, and superstition of the
r rench r lve Points. J. be professional classes

became one putrid mass of debauchery and
corruption; and when the Empress, on the
news of her husbands captivity, fled in
despair from the imperial palace, there was
not even one woman among the thousands
who had been pampered at the Tuileries with
soul enough left to give a parting blessing
to the deposed mistress of French fashion.
Nay, worse, the army, which had ever been
tne boast of l ranee even in the direst hours
of her misfortunes, was infected by the gene
ral demoralization. No wonder that tha

tion. The masses of their people are edu

and mental and moral culture, are the order
of the day among high and low; and so
blessed is this elevating influence that not
even all the evils of monarchy and a semi-
feudal aristocracy can mar its enect.
Whatever may be the future complications
of the Franco-German contest, this much is
certain, that the ruling classes all over the
world are sternly admonished by the collapse
of their fellows in France to pause in their
selfish and grasping career, and to do justice
to the masses of the people before they too
are overtaken by providential justice, like
the Emperor Bonaparte and his innumerable
parasites.
MORAL WEAKNESS OF PRUSSIA'S PO
SITION.
From the N. Y. Timet.
The marvellous series of victories whioh
have enabled hostile armies to traverse
French Boil from the Rhine to the gates of
i'aris, were tne work of united Germany
Prussia, nnaided, woHld probably have found
a match in France. The hearty co-operation,
the ready sacrifices, the gallant services of
the lesser Germanic States, have greatly faci
litated, if they have not made possible, her
triumph. It was the grand idea of a united
Germany which kindled the ardor, and added
the strength of patriotism to the arms, whose
achievements are literally without a parallel.
Dissensions and lukewarmness in Germany
would nave impaired tne available mignt of
Prussia to an extent that might have changed
the entire character of the campaign.
When the terms of peace are mentioned,
however, it is the King of Prussia alone who
8peks. He it is to whom diplomatists ad
answer is accepted 'as though it were the
decision of all Germany. By virtue 6f a
military authority, as head of the armies of
invasion, he assumes to interpret the will of
the Southern Germanlo States the essential
nature of whose services in the field even
Bismarck is constrained to recognize as in
the fnture a restraining consideration as
well as of the North German Confederation.
Thus King William, impelled by dynastio in
stincts and ambition, commits Germany to a
polity which really refleots only tha purposes
of the reigning family of Prussia. Germany
undertook the war to crush Napoleon, who
menaced it perpetually, and to impose a
check upon France as an aggressive power.
The Prussian King now carries on the war to
crush a republic, whose existence is evidence
of Napoleon's overthrow, and to restore the
very dynastio influences which the war was
originally waged to destroy. The King's po
sition is therefore worse tnan illogical it
is politically odious, and morally indefen
sible.
Of coarse, Germany as the victor is enti
tled to impose conditions of peace, and one
of these conditions may be the acquisition of
French territory. Public meetings at Borlia
and elsewhere have indicated the readjust
ment of the Rhine boundary as a guarantee
to be exaoted; and mere would be nothing
very outrageous in the transfer back to Ger
many of a district which naturally belonged
to it. 'Ine expediency of the thing is the
debatable point, and it is for Germany to
consider that. .The payment of the pecuniary
cobt of the war, or of a sum in consideration
thereof, is the second point which Germany
seems to urge, and which may be urged
without provoking reasonable complaints of
extravagance. Neither of these demands im
plies any interference with the internal
economy ot .trance, l he form and personnel
of . its Government are matters which the
people of united Germany would be willing
to leave to the French people.
Ine King of Prussia, however, is not con
tent to press these demands as in the interest
of the Germany which has made him what he
it. He sets up a pretension which the German
peottle have never sanctioned, and which a
very large proportion of them', at any other
time, would have angrily repudiated. He
refuses to discuss the question of terms with
the present government of 1 ranee. His
abhorrence of republicanism leads hioa to
witlinola recognition from the executive
of the republic. He asserts a right to
say what is and what is not the
legitimate governing authority of the
nation wbicb, for the moment, is at the
mercy of his armies. Aud he declares that
the government which acts for and in the
name of the French people is not a govern
ment to bo acknowledged, even as an enemy.
Nothing less will satisfy him than the rein
stallation of the Napoleonic regency, which
collapsed like a bubble before the first breath
of popular anger, and the officials who lied
as for their lives to escape the vengdance of
the people they had outraged and betrayed.
This is the attitude of tko Prussian King,
and it is lDlaruous.
There may be technical diplomatic difficul
ties arising from the absence of formal re
cognition on the part of other monarchies.
But these difficulties are not really formida
ble. It is quite evident from the
advices from St. Petersburg that no
plea of this sort hinders the Czar from so far
acting for i ranee as to interpose an oner of
mediation, .bven the action of liUgland,
base and cowardly as it is, proves the same
thing. If King William is prepared to treat
with the regency created by Napoleon, which
could not now exist an instant in Paris with
out the support of Prussian bayonets, he
might with much better grace enter into
negotiations with the Provisional Govern
ment, whoso origin, whatever its legal de
fects, is directly traceable to the popular
will. The probable ability to carry out any
covenants that might be entered into is much
greater in the latter than in the former case.
Eugenie and her Ministers would be as pow
erless in France as the royal lady who seeks
repose at Balmoral.
It is possible that, after all, the terms in
sisted upon by Germany might be rejected
by the Provisional Government. When events
reach that stage, the wisdom of the course
pursued by France will be a fair topio of dis
cussion. In the meantime the King of Prussia
puts himself and his cause wholly in the
wrong by fastening upon tne conflict an issue
with which the conquering armies have no
proper concern.
THE POPE AND ITALY.
From the AT. Y. Tribune.
That Italy will have Rome for its capital
was as plain when she became a nation ten
years age as it is to-day. mere is no other
point from which Italy can be permanently
governed as a single btate. limn, lorenoe,
Naples, Milan, Genoa, Venioe, are fit capitals
of the segments or tne perunsuja which for
merly received law from them respectively;
but Italy as a whole has for a generation re
ceived the law from Rome alone. External
pressure only could keep Italy out of Rome
or withhold Rome from Italy. That pressure
being removed, the old union is restored as
by gravitation. An Italy without Rome is in
conceivable. And we cannot doubt the simple
truth of Victor Emanuel's explanation to the
Pope, that he bad only tne choice of going to
Rome at the head of Italy or seeing her go
there as a republio without him.
We do not assume to judge the attitude of
Pius IX. He maintains that "the patrimony
of St. Peter" is not his to cede that he is
but a trustee, wholly powerless to alienate
any portion of his trust. He can and does
submit to irresistible torce; ire cannot and
will not sanction or ratify the spoliation. The
temporal power of the Papacy was not ac
quired by conquest, ami conquest cannot
rightfully destroy it. We simply state this
position without approving or condemning it.
But, the temporal power once swept away,
we believe that the Papacy as a spiritual force
will be decidedly strengthened. The civil gov
ernment oi tne Komuu Estate nas not been
creditable to those who were responsible for
it; it has not been vigorous, nor dignified,
and it has failed in its attempt to be paternal.
since it has nowise contributed to the develop
ment of the physical resources of the country
nor to tne material weaun oi its people. We
judge that the spiritual power of the Papacy
would have been greater had it never dis
played a flag nor owned a cannon.
For some years, the army of the Pope has
been extravagantly disproportioned to his
revenues. His debt has been steadily in
creasing, in spite of liberal contributions
from the Catholics of either hemisphere, so
that open bankruptcy stared him ia the faoe.
This catastrophe has now been averted, in a
manner which exposes him to no reproach.
Italy, in taking his temporalities, has plaoed
herself under a moral obligation to assume
and pay Lis debt; should she fail, hers, not
his, will be the blame. And, this debt so
transferred, he will have no need to contract
another. His army is of course disbanded, or
ruust be: and Italy is bound, in mustering it out
of liU Fervica. whether into her own or not, to
pay it vd, 'xueu a w 4uty ti
protect him in the free exercise of his spiritual
authority, and against whatever attack or
annoyance in the narrowed limits to which
bis temporal authority is henceforth to be re
stricted presumptively, those of that portion
of the Eternal City which lies north of the
Tiber, and includes St. Peter's and the Vati
can. Looking over the whole field dispas
sionately, we are thoroughly assured that the
Papacy, unless some unfavorable blunder is
made on its parLwill prove the greatest gainer
by the rigorous restriction of its temporal
power and the transrer of the Italian Govern
ment from Florence to Rome.
