Editorial Opinions of tha Leading Journals upon Current Toplos Compiled Every Day for the Evening Telegraph. THE NEW REIGN OF TEKttOB W PAWS STILL FllANCE? PrvmthtN. r. Htiald. Our news from France is qnito sufileient to make the heart nick. No such dishoartening news to those who loved the French people has been received in the memory of living men. We forget not the whole interval Hince July of last year, nor, indeed, the interval since 178!) a long interval, certainly, but in the history of French sorrow not by auy means to be overlooked. It is fair, we think, to Bay that the news of the last few days has made the name of France almost stink in the nostrils of every man wsho was angry with Germany and who persisted in hoping for Franco. What is the situation? After a war of more than eight months France has been compelled to bow to the conqueror. Her Emperor has been for over six months a prisoner in the hands of the enemy. Ilia Empress and all those, including his son, who belonged to what was called the Regency, have been for the same space of time exiles in England. As nearly as possible, four hundred thousand of the picked men of France, the best and most trusted generals of the empire included, have been, Bince Sedan, prisoners in fortresses absolutely under German control. Since Sedan France has revealed no lack of pluck; but the six months' fighting, whatever we may say of the pluck, has served mainly to exaggerate France's misfortunes; and, what is more important still in the premiscB, the French people, accepting the late of their country, have, m a consti tutional manner, made peace with the con queror and persuaded the armies of the con querer to retire. The French people cannot deny that by a fair, constitutional rote the present National Assembly was elected and M. Thiers made President of the republic. There are few men who will refuse to admit that the terms imposed upon France by the German leaders were hard and, indeod, heavy; but the Germans went about their work with so much caution and consideration that no man of intelligence, no matter how much he sympathizes with France, can help confessing that the French people fairly tested and fully endorsed the peace policy of the government of M. Thiers. In good faith the Prussians have been gradually evacuating the conquered strongholds and leaving France to the French. For a time the promise was bright. It wa9 the opinion of many thoughtful men that although the money demands of Prussia were something unprecedented, the demand for the cession of territory something more than humiliating, and the whole peace arrange ment altogether too hard, France had mag nanimously bowed and done the best she could do in the circumstances. To-day every well-wisher of France and of the French peo ple has changed his mind, and the universal sentiment is that the French are absolutely nnnt tor sen-government, it was once a proud boast to be a Roman citizen. It is a source of pride at this moment to be able to Bay "I am an American, or a Britisher, or a German;" but where is the man who is not ashamed to confess "I am a citizen of France?" The deeds of the last two days have appalled the world, and many look upon France as another Poland which ought to be occupied, partitioned, extin fraished. The treachery of the soldiers, and the cold blooded murders of General Clement Thomas and General Lecomte ,(and while we write who can tell how' many more?) revive the worst memories of the past. We think of the storming of the Rastile, of the July horrors, of the September massacres, of the Goddess of Reason and the associated blas phemies, of the fusillades, the noyades, the guillotine, and all the other horrors real and imaginary of the Reign of Terror. ( Another Committee of Public Safety, another Danton, another Marat, another Robespierre rise up before us, and we ask, How is this fresh out burst of revolutionary violence to end ? Are we to have another feeble Directory, another Consulate, another Empire ? Are new names to figure in the destruction of another Direc tory ? Is Gambetta, or some such, to figure as a new despot by the special will of the French people ? These questions are not by any means out of plaee in present circumstances. No one can tell what may happen. Anything every thing is possible. We are willing to believe, however, that Paris, in spite of appearances, is no longer France in the ancient sense. The railroad, the telegraph, and the news paper have made wondrous changes during the last sixty years. Already the order-loving people of the capital city talk of appealing to fhe provinces or to the Germans for relief. We have not much faith in the provinoes, for the reason that the provinces are controlled by the large cities. The provinces cannot save Paris except by a vote; but if anarchy reigns in Paris it is difficult to see how a provincial vote can be obtained. King William, it is Baid, has halted in his homeward march, aud as the Germans are now as much interested in the peace and prosperity of France as are the French themselves, it is not at all impossible that King William will send back Mauteuffel or some other skilful general, at the head of a sufficient number of men, to do for Franc what France in her agony confesses she can not do for herself. If the German troops should be ordered back, they will of course occupy Paris only temporarily. King Wil liam's business will be to give France a government, as did the allies in 1814 and 1815. With all the facts of the last six months before him, he cannot for a mo ment think of a republic. Felled before the peace, its present feeble efforts cannot but be despised. The choice is between the House of Orleans and the House of Bona parte. We have until now clung to the hope that the Count de Paris at the end of all this confusion would find himself in the palaoe of his ancestors. The Count of Paris, as the head of the House of Orleans, seemed to us to present the best possible solution of the tangled politioul net wmcn ima war has woven. J. he modera tion expressed by the French people in the recent election and the men whom that elec tion floated into prominent publio view, en couraged our hope. It was an unmistakable indication that France was in favor of a gov ernment which would avoid the extremes of the republic on the one hand and the ex tremes of the empire on the other; but while we wait in vain for some emphatic sign in faver of the Count de Paris Napoleon has found his way to EDgland, and on all hand the admission is made that a new plebiscite, fairly conducted, will restore Napoleon the Third. We will not say bow it may result, but we cannot refuse to admit that the chances vt the House of Ronaparte are not only reftter than those of the republicans aud the monarchists, but more promising than they were two weeks ago. Much will depend on ciroumstances which we cannot foresee. It is possible that the ex cesses of the mob of Paris will so disgust the order-loviDg people all over that France, a9 one man, will rally around the person of Pre sident Thiers. The revival of the Reign of Terror has no attractions for the Frenoh, pro perly so-called. They will have anythingthe Germans in Paris rather than that. On the other band, however, it is also possible that apparent success won in the name of the republic may communicate a dangerous im pulse to the larger cities, and so demoralize the great mass of the soldiers. Once more, we think it must be admitted that Paris is a curse to France. If Prosident Thiers can contrive to keep the Assembly together and away from the . mob he may, without the assistance of Prussia, succeed in restoring order. But France seems to stand on the edge of a smouldering volcano, and we must wait for results. WHICH PARTY SHOULD GOVERN? From the X. 1". Times. After all that we have passed through dur ing the last few years, it seems quite incredi ble that Republicans should now be found laboring with might and main to place the Government in the bands of the very party which strove to break up the Union. Such, however, is one of the unexpected "develop ments" of this very progressive a;e. Having shed blood like water for the sake of esta blishing certain principles, and endured fiscal burdens such as very few nations have boon called upon to bear, we are now invited by Republicans to quietly surrender the Govern ment to the Democrats. And this advice is not offered to us under any misapprehension with regard to the objects and aioi3 of the Democrocy. To do the leaders and fuglemen of that party justice, they let us know pretty plainly what they are driving at. When they are very much under a cloud, they sometimes put a guard upon their lips. But they are just now fully convinced that they have no longer anything to fear. The dissensions of Republicans embolden them to come out with their "programme." They want to "restore the Constitution" for one thing and what that means, our experience during the war ought to have taught us. The great law givers of the Democratic party tried to con vince the people that there was no authority under the Constitution to put down rebellion, and prevent the dissolution of the Govern ment. They attach the same importance to their principles now as they did in 18(il, while the Republicans, enervated by a long lease of power, are inclined to think lightly about tha cause for which they fought. We can conceive of no greater misfortune for the country than that which would be in volved in its relapse into Democratic hands. Compared with the danger of its falling under Democratic rule, all other dangers, and all other issues, seom hardly worth a moment's consideration. What are local or personal causes of dissatisfaction in comparison with the disasters which would certainly overtake ns within a twelvemonth after the resto ration of the Democrats to power? The chief opponents of the Republican party in this city are the Ecening Post and the World laborers in identically the same field. Now, what are the reasons which, in their judgment, ought to induce Republicans to break up the party ? The Pout wants free trade. The World talks of "avenging Sumner and Motley," of "resent ing" the "compulsory resignation of Judge Hoar," and of "teaching Grant a lesson." These are the inducements which we have for deliberately undoing all the painful work of the last few years, and practically giving fresh vitality to the question whether States have the right to secede for that i3 what It will come to when we get to the bottom of the present controversy. Judge Conway recently gave us the clue to true Democratic sentiment when he said in a letter to a city contemporary: "In the late war, the South fought against brute force, not brains. She was overborne in the field by the strength of her enemies. She will reap the fruits of a great victory from their stupidity. Let the South move to the front ! The future is hers." If the reader is curious to have some variations of the same tune, he has only to look over the very care ful summary of Southern opinion, which we prepared on Monday, as expressed in South ern journals received by a single mail. Re publicans who are in searoh of "campaign documents" cannot do better than cut that article out of our paper of Monday, the 20th, and do the sma thing with similar articles which we shall lay before them from time to time. There is no consideration which should induce Republicans to throw away a single advantage that may help them in the next Presidential contest. It is perhaps a matter of secondary importance who may be chosen as the champion of the party, but it is of the very first importance that the Republicans should win the fight with somebody. It ia all very well to say that it is too soon to talk about the event yet. The Democrats evidently do not think so, for they have beed at work for weeks past especially in the South aud West getting ready for the struggle. Tam many has plenty of money to spend, and will have still more when the infamous Tax Levy bill has handed the entire power of raising and spending money in this city over to Tweed, Sweeny, Hall, and Connolly a measure, let us never forgot, which Repub licans like Mr. Peter Cooper have heartily supported. It will be very difficult to coun teract the effects of the unlimited expendi ture which Tammany can safely venture upon. The Republican majority in Congress ought to try to strengthen the party out of doora bv everv means in its power. It com mits a deplorable mistake in separating with out abolishing the income tax, and without t akin cr anv pains to convince the people that a still further reduction of taxation is one of the objects it has at heart. The Democrats are at present plaving their came with far greater astuteness than the Republicans, but we may trust their own treacherous princi ples, and their disregard of those interests which the people prize, to bring them to grief before the contest is over. CHARLES SUMNER FOR PRESIDENT! from the X. V. Sun. 0 That the nomination of Mr. Sumner as the Presidential candidate of the Democracy would result in the overwhelming triumph of that party no one can doubt. He would carry all the New England States, all the Southern States, and pretty nearly all the remaining States. Indeed, we cannot name a Mate with any vote against him if candidate. Why should he of the Democracy ? conhdence which would he were the Democratic not become the candidate He was never au old- fashioned Whig, was always out of favor with the aristocratic members of that j?arty of tue school of Webster and Winthrop, and from his earliest years has been a tirm believer and eloquent exponent of the political creed of Thomas Jtflerson. More than this, he was first elected to the Senate by the Democrats of Massachusetts, among whom he had been born and bred. During that memorable. Senatorial struggle he was brought out by the Democracy as their candidate against the distinguished Whig nominee, repeatedly received the vote of every Democratic member of the Legislature, which at that session happened to contain a large body of the most inlluential Democrats in the State, was in the end triumphantly elected in spite of the strenuous opposition of the Whigs, led by Daniel Wobstor, and his success was soon followed by the dissolution of the old Federal-Whig party, which hid ruled Massachusetts from the days of Wash ington. Air. buraner nas on some great occasions fought shoulder to shoulder with distin guished Democrats. In 18 18 he affiliated with the New York Barnburners in support of Martin Van Buren for the Presidency, and carried a free lance in that famous struggle by the side ot l'rince John of Lindenwal l, Dean Richmond, Samuel J. Tilden, Judge Church, and other Bhimng lights in the De mocratic firmament Mr. Sumner s well-known catholicity of sentiment in regard to existing parties i no more of an objection to his selection as the Democratic candidate, in this transition state of national politics, than was that of General Jackson to his selection under like circum stances forty years ago. During the adoiims- tiation of Mr. Monroe, General Jackson, who in his youth had leaned toward the Federalists, and in his riper years had quar relled witn many ol the leading Democrats of the country, addressed two or three letters to Monroe recommending an abandonment of old party lines and a reorganization of the political elements of the time on a broader basis of catholicity, and urging him to signiiy nis acceptance ot this view of the situation by appointing prominent Federal ists to office. So far from these doctrines proving an obstacle to the subsequent nomi nation of General Jackson as the Democratic candidate for the Presidency, they were heralded by the Democrats themselves as a striking proof of the forecast of their nomi nee; and they turned out to be one of the most popular and attractive elements of his character during the exciting campaign of 1828, when Jackson, who could hardly be called a Democrat at all, defeated the coali tion of Adams and Clay, who had been leaders of the Democratic party for twenty yenrs. This he accomplished by drawing around him in this contest the great mass of the De mocracy, ana by rallying to his standard a large share of its hereditary opponents. Having thus reorganized the party, he con solidated its ranks, made a fair distribution of patronage among his supporters regardless of their political antecedents, marked out a line ot poncy auaptea to tne now era on which the country was then entering, and in sured to the reconstructed Democracy a long lease ot power. W7bat the Democratic party needed in the days of Jackson they require now. Politics are in a transition state. Old party lines are disappearing. And why should the De mocracy expose themselves to the perils of a doubtful canvass, when by nominating Mr. Sumner they may make the election per fectly sure ? We speak as to wise men and not to fools. SPECIAL NOTICES. OFFICJB FIRE COMMISSIONERS, 8. E. corner uit'TH ana uiiisaiN UT. riULADBt-puiA, March 15, 1870. NOTICE.
