The quespou ie cortainly a very In. volved one : 'The Goveininent 'mtiet . be legi littiittei but then,it runlikrukt be toolegitlmate AW:a lint tie safeltseated .able throne; .0 w ere must, he'reseriible, and where must he diger NO the . kings who have preceded t.',#le'[is a .cantitutional Sovereign, yet he trust be distinguished from Lows PumprE. He must be the Emperor, refulgent with all the glory of his' predecessors ; but here they are again stranded, for he is also the true re presentative of the people and their servant. lie must be exhibited as the convenient mouth-piece of the popular will, while he has a very embarrassing way of uttering' his own opinion and not theirsenfranchised France enjoys a free press, but Mon Dieu ! La Presse Nap suppressed. They are in a sad puzzle. Ns.por.zots Is a great man, no doubt, but his grea'tnessos aro so mingled with littlenesies that'broad assertions and sweeping. paragraphs will not describe him. Ho is an Emperor but not too much of an Emperor—revolutionary but 'not too revolutionary—he is deinocratic but not too democratic. ! The .line of demur. cationis very hard to find; and the journals are very liable to overstep it in their fever of authorship, and they aro then forced to re- treat, with whatever of grace and dignity they can assume in their rapid fluctuations. M. le Vicomte DE LA GIIZRONNIERE, in the Revi‘e Centemportiine, has hit upon a most ex. cellent method of avoiding all the shoals and quicksands. What with careful sailing and cautious coasting, the article is so excessively lengthy that we cannot pretend to give a trans lation, but will do our utmost to reproduce its points ; for, in common with every other arti cle that we have yet road in these Journals, the style totally unfits it for literal translation for oar own dailies. The numberless excla mations and interrogations ; the questions and answers, almost dialogue In form; the asto nishing bursts of eloquence; the endless repe tition and amplification ; and the peculiar me thOds of emphasis,—all render them so en tirely unlike our own style of editorials that the literal translation of even their most mi ens discussions would be a burlesque. Mee tican leaders are certainly as denunciatory and declamatory, but still they have an essay-like form, compared to the French bulletin, which might be fitly described by that misused title, so much affected by, second-rate poets, "a scene from an unfinished drama." The'ocuaelott of this review is Lilo publics- Son of ".A. Now Commentary upon the Re public of Cicero" in the Revue des Deux- Mondes: The critic announces that ho finds in it a careiblly concealed animosity to the preminverovarnurvert-wr zreareeriantr•rnar—circr author, IVi. Villemain, an adherent of the de parted monarchy, uses it as a means of attack ing the preterit institutions, and especially the fandameatal doctrine of universal suffrage. Cicero, Xenophon, Socrates, Plato, and St. Augustine, are all made to declaim against popular dictatorship, which M. Villemain evi dently considers to be the true character of the present Empire. But the fulminations of Omao against the democracy of Rome only serve to show the 'depravity of a society, that, notwithstanding the virtue and inlightentnent of its patricians, was enveloped in paganism, and defiled by slavery. The prestige of the tribune and the eloquence of the orators will not compensate, in the eyes of the world, for the decadence of morals, the oppression of the subjects, and the open barter of suffrages. In a society where liberty bordered upon slavery, where patriotism rested on venality and corruption, and where the circus was the vetattbule of the senate, there would be justice and relevancy in the anathemas of CICERO ; but it would be an outrage to our civilization to compare it with that shameful dictatorship which was not of the people, but of the ,populace. To re proach the universal suffrage of the nineteenth century with the same species of declamation that burst 'forth in the forum would be to falsify history, and to wound Christianity, civilization, Franco I Neither was that popular dictatorship, of which the Convention was the representa- Sire, an instance of the effect of universal suf. frage. The Convention was a revolutionary rather than a popular dictatorship ; it was the oirspring of the clubs, and it was no represen tative of the nation that trembled under its rule. Far from being an illustration of the effect of universal suffrage, the Revolution, instead•of springing from that principle, only !ed to it; and in the Consulate we find the true beginning of civil and religious liberty. Universal suffrage, as it has been understood and practised for sixty years, has been only the extension of the eonstitutivo right ,of the French Government. It is not the monarchy which has constituted the people, but the people who have founded the monarchy. Succession to the throne under the two first dynasties was decided by election, with the difference that the nation subsisted then in the aristocracy; the people were not yet emancipated, and the bourgeoisie were not born. By the choice of the nobles Nen; and Wolf CAPET were raised to supreme power. Election has always been the true source of power in France—informal in its origin, never unrestrained, yet it has always existed—ap peering at first only in the camp, then as the appanage of the nobility, and ever widening until it heti, at, length .yeached the people, That election le the principle of our law can be seen in our history--;the only Govern ment which has not been overturned by the French nation is the one which they willingly organized and accepted. The first Empire succumbed only to the united forces of Eu • rope, and oven in its downfall, retained such power that it has regained its place without effort or violence. The rock of St. Hele na Could net, destroy the power of that immortal name, or the force of its organizing path:lpin. It has slain one hero, but the mar tyrdom of the man has resulted in assuring his glory and grandeur to his family. And every time that universal suffrage has been consulted In the past sixty years, the French nation has replied with the name of NAPOLEON. 'ivitween the 'first and 'second Empires two Wen*, at monarchy were made both pow erful'and well arranged, and both uniting all the 'condition. o f success and enduritnce. But both failed; fof the reason that neither the aristocratic monarchy of 1816, nor the tour giotin monarchy of 1831,, represented the uni versal French nation. Their basis was too narrow, and their institutiona tonld not restet the assaults of an ardent add disturbed de mocracy. ' The respect for authority was' naturally di- Webbed by these'revolutions. •'The exile of dynistiee, aud the, banisturient of the nobilityk had- irretrievahly. :disgraced the old' forme of Government In the eyes of :Pie people, and It became necessary to search elsewhere for the elenient of power. We folind that the words of Vergniand were more applicable in 1848 than they had been in 1788—“ It is only France PMLADELPHIA, SATUR that can save Prante." In our distress we tarried to the true soeme of power ; and what has the exercise of our right of suffrage done for us ? To it do we owo the defeat of the Revolution, andtherelabllltatlon of authority. Thinks to it, we have eicapod from the tyranny of the dubs, the excestes of the deinagogues, from. the perils of a general war, end from the destruction of all the social forces. But what can there be in common between the rule of the majority-in a society snob a. out's, where it is and can bo only the moral strength 'of opinion, and that popular dicta. , torship which elevated the ignorant plebibM of Remo only to hurl him buck again into tieril; tude 1 ,What is there is commop betwe# that tumultuous acclamation and the free and regulated elections of a people elevated by th* bonds of religion, of the family, and of indult-, try ? Compare the democracy of France with that brutal numerical sovereignty of Rome—it is q comparison, between servitude and obis.: dionee ; license and liberty; the dominion ot, the Ciosant and the empire of law and right:. Rut what is a dictator'? Let us defintoll4, much-uSed word : It is the dominion of one over all. It is the empire of one man Over the, silent law. jt Is Owsar passing tbo Ruhicon ) - and re-entering Rome td drive away the quo ate, and bending all resistance under tbeMv. condom of his, glory . ind hle'gertlus;" It Orani.i.ell thiarmi to govern the parlia ment; employing the parliament to immolate tho king; using the regicide and the blOod,pi the slaughtered- monarch against the parlia- Ment, that ho may raise himself above his ao. complices even to the title of dictator. It is the eomite de salut public decreeing the terror in 1708, and making France and Europe trem ble under the axe of the Revolution.. . There is necessarily something dictatorial In that genius which lays the foundation,oe em pire, for energy and detorminatiou are regd. site to incite, to direct, and to moderato pub lic opinion. For this reason it has become the fashion at tho Academy to call the Em. peror Niroteox Ist a despot. There is no doubt that ho possessed the despotism of de termination and genius. That rapid, WO. rious, and often absolute dicision, which wag a part of• his character, was evinced equally on the Held, of battle, in the Government, and in the - couneil of State. His Government, also, the link between the old and the new, was naturally of an exceptionable and transitory character; but the reign which secured both civil and religious liberty to France cannot be classed with the empires of the East. Haro. LEO" was an organizer, not a despot-1m or dained, ho commanded, but ho never op. pressed. Coming down to our own day, can we finds dictator in our present form of Government? Is it in Nivoune, thrice elected with a una nimity each time more imposing? Is it in an Emperor governing under a Constitution, as. slated by Weider/I, not imposed by the caprices of a Parliament, bnt responsible to public opinion and the Chief of the State 1 Is It in the 'control exercised by a Legislature originating, like the Emperor, in the choice of the nation 1 Can it be found in a Senate appointed for life, with the power to °prase the promulgation of laws, to denounce uncon stitutional votes, and to propose projects of national utility Is it in that magistracy, in dependent of control, who interpret the law without any guide but their own consciences? Cr Is it in, that liberty of the human mind which manifests itself in the academies, la the College of,France, at Sorbonne, in books and reviews, under the solo reserve of respect to the institutions and morals of the country The present Empire has been inaugurated by the consent of the people, and the instittt. tiona grant to the Emperor only those powers which are necessary to a governor, leaving to the country the right of examination and in t . rude experiences of the past, and inspired by' the spirit of 1789, the present institutions neither sacrifice liberty to the inflexible laws of order, or place order at the mercy of un• bridled liberty ; but they present to the nation a vast frame-work of government, capable of combining both in their happiest relations. France knows this, and she has confidence in the man whom she has placed at the head of affairs. In this confidence she accepts all the necessary restrictions, as a guarantee of repose from her long agitations, and awaits the pos. sible ameliorations of the system as her hope for tho future. SABBATH READING. INFLUENCE OF A MOTHER'S PIETY. There was MO an obscure and pious woman It►- ing in the south of England. Ilistory le silent re spooling her ancestry, her place of birth, and her education She had an only eon, whom she made it'hor great business to train in the nurturo and admonition of the Lord. In the seventh year of his age, his mother died, and a few years later, the lad went to sea, and engaged at length as a sailor in the African glove trade. He was soon an adept in vice, and though amongst the youngest of the °raw, he was the moot proficient in guilt. eut his mother's instructions sent their echoes to him, and though it first he sought to defend himself from them, they grew louder and louder, until, listening to Clain at last, he became a fervent Christian, a successful preacher, the author of books which the church 'will never lot die, and the writer of hymns the use of which Is co-extensive with our tongue. This wayward son, whom his mother, though dead, addressed and reclaimed, was the means of the conversion of Claudius Buchanan, eo gashed for his labors in the East Indies; and the Star of the East," a book published by Mr Bu chanan, first called the attention of Mr. Judson to the missionary work, and sent him an apostle to Burnish. The sailor, turned preacher, was also the means of delivering the Rev. Thos. Scott from the mazes of ruinous error, and of introducing him to the way, the truth, and the life. Mr. Scott prepared the Commentary known by his name, and wbioh still continues its mission of converting and sancti fying power. The influence of this same minister and author, in connection with that of Doddridge, was princi pally instrumental in making Wilberforce the Christian he was. To Wilberforoe's " Practical View of Christianity," the conversion of Leigh Richmond may be ascribed, and Leigh Richmond wrote the "Dairyman's Daughter," and other tracts, which have contributed to the salvation of thousand/ of souls. That obscure and pima woman was the mother of Rev. John Newton, one of the ablest and most devoted ministers that ever graocd the Christian Church. WHATI'S on WAY TO CANAAN.—Of the several spicy lessons which Mre Stowe has managed to teach the white folks through a dark medium in her "bred," the following hit at the seetarlan prejudices too often existing between Christian denominations, is too good to be lost : " Old Tiff,' for their mint, aniso and commie wrangles, while inquirers are asking the plan of salvation. Old Tiff' has the care of the children of his dead mistreat, and having told them that their mother had gone to the lend of Canaan, one inquires as follows : Undo Tiff, where is the land of Canaan" ' Do Lord-a-mercy, chile, dat ar's what I'd likeiro know myself I's studdin' upon dot ar.

The attack on Canton—which it was supposimi would here bean constneaced on the 17th Out has, fur various reasons, been deferred, and is vow es-peened to take place about the first of next month.

Since writing tho above, I ant enabled to give you the following additional news: The English forces are being gathered together at Wangtupg, below IYhanthoa. It la now confidently expiated that the attack will be made on Canton about the let of December. The occasion of the delay until that date is that Admiral Seymour awaits the ar rival of Colonel Holloway, Commander-in•Chlef of the English marine forces in Chine, with an additional force of marines, who is expected now daily. The forte widish will be congregated before Canton will be as follows Royal Mutates, 3,000 Blue Jackets, 3,000; Royal Artillery, a portion of the 39th regiment, now stationed here, together with a FrenobAkerese of about 300 marines There 'will oe also 13 men-of-war, eacryln an aggregate of 100 rani, and 20 gun-boats, *soh carrying from two to five gone of heavy calibre.

The Grand Jury for the olty and county of Phila. delphta. made the following presentment : PRRSENTWRNY OP TOR GRAND JURY To the honorable the Judges of the Court of Oyer an d Termini, for the city and county of Philadelphia: - • The grand inquest for the city and county of Philadelphia, for December term, most respectfully present the following : Since the commencement of our official term, which has been a protracted one. we hove acted upon seven hundred and ninety-eight bills, charg ing various crimes rind misdemeanors, via : Adultery, 2, arson, 11; assault and battery, 328; bigamy, 1; burglary, 4; conspiracy, 1; Cl tortion, 1; fornication and bastardy, 10 ; false pretence, 15; forgery, 1; highway robbery, 1; larceny, 193; manslaughter, 2; murder, 6; mis demeanors, 216 ; perjury, 4 ; robbery, 2 Of these bills, a large number being of a trivial character, and not sustained in our judgment by sufficient evidence, three hundred and seven have been ignored or dismissed. In relation to the oases for smelt and battery, many were of such a character as to forbid, in our opinion, their return to court ; convinced, too, as we are, that the al. dormen before whom they were heard would have been justified in settling the same, thereby not only relieving the Grand Jury of annoyance, but saving the county much expense, and the parties involved trouble and loss of time. The Grand Jury have visited the County Prison, the Eastern Penitentiary, and Almshouse. and al though they arc unusually crowded with the poor and unfortunate, yet they are conducted with a remarkable degree of cleanliness, order, and aye tem, which is highly creditable io the officers of Giese institutions. The ventilation, however, of the cells iu the untried department of the County Prison appears to bo defective; the atmosphere le offensive, and no doubt injurious to the health of tho prisoners; the attention of the inspectors and councils is called to this subject On the govern. merit and discipline of the Fastens Penitentiary the Grand Jury cannot speak too highly; it is, without doubt, the model State prison of the coun try ; the Pennsylvania system of solitary confine ment, blended with the kind and humane treat ment and instructions imparted to the prisoners, received, as it justly merited, the approval of the Grand Jury. The liouses of Refuge, for the white and colored juvenile offendore, wore also visited by the Grand Jury, and they take pleasure in attesting to the . •••worthy character of these institutions, where• n are leeeed nearly five hundred boys and girls, the managers of which twircea.itient in their efforts to reclaim the young from a life of crime and vice to ono of morality and rectitude. Tho grand inquest, by invitation, availed them. melees of the pleasure of visiting the Northern Home for Friendless Children, This institution, like others of a eimilar character that now adorn our city, impressed upon our minds its groat utility, viewing it in its mission of mercy, dispensing as it does its blessings to the unprotected and often un oared•for child of misfortune. We cannot, there fore, but feel deeply grateful to its founders and managers for their disinterested and noble exer tions in behalf of friendless children. The Grand Jury deem it proper, at this time, to call the attention of the authorities, or remind them of the greatneoessity for the erection of work shops in the Almshouse. There is ample room for such buildings, and on the sotto of economy we are convinced, from observation, that the city would be materially benefited by the erection of the same. At present there is a large number of the inmates of the Almshouse able-bodied and good workmen, who spend their time in idleness, from the sheer necessity of want of room and ma terial. We hope, therefore, that an early effort on the part of Councils will be made to bring about this most desirable improvement. The attention of Councils is also sailed to the very bad condition of the bike-house in the above institution. . . . This Grand Jury, like preceding ones, sines the enactment of the present license law, has been sailed upon to not on a large number of hills, charging a violation of said law, and in many in stances deemed it proper to eat aside testimony which we were convinced was prompted by perso nal spleen or expectation of pecuniary gain. The license law, as it now stands, we believe to have felled in producing the good effects contemplated at the time of its enactment. No law of this character can be effectual without it is equal in Its bearings, and the want of this feature in the present law to apparent, and to a great extent ren ders it inoperative. The Legislature of our State being now in session, we deem it opportune to ex press a sincere desire that they. in their wisdom, will repeal the present unequal law, and substitute one more equal in Ito spirit, exaolleg in its treat tiO7t, and more beneficial to the molar of our community. ' All of which is respectfully submitted. Jac,. KESSLER, Jr , Foreman. Attest, Win. C. Ilednes,Feoretary. Judge Freeborn G. Jewett, of Skaneateles, N. Y., died on Wodnoaday loot, TWO CENTS.
