they would have made the period inter

because politicians are honest, and politics

the people, as a mass, cannot be corrupted.
and when lead estray, as on Tuesday, take
the first opportunity to retrace their steps.
Let us illustrate by the story of two friends.
one a Christian and thsiother a Jew. They
were so much attackiso that the former
could not endure they thought that his
' friend entertained a fahe persuasion in re
ligious matters, and endeavored to convert
him te his own belief. The Jew, perceiv
ing the purity and earnestness of his mo
tives, bind finding discussion productive of
no good, offered to go to head quarters,
and acquaint himself thoroughly with the
lives of the dignitaries and fathers of the
Christian church. His Christian friend
was alarmed at this proposition, although
be could not object to it., for he well knew
that the priesthood was corrupt in the ex
treme. The Jew carried out his project.
however, and found the leading professors
of his friend's religion as bad as they well
could be, and to the astonishment and de
light of his well-wisher, declared himself
converted to the Christian faith, which he
said must be the purest in existence, since
It survived in its excellence, reformed and
kept so many from evil, and remained the
support and source of joy to so many right
eous, in splteof a priesthood the most cor
rupt and degenerate in the world. As
much might be said for American liberty
and enlightenment, which, in spite of cor
rupt and ignorant politicians, rulers, teach
ers and ministry renders our many and in
creasing millions the moat intelligent,
prosperous and liberal, if 'not the best and
happiest people on the globe.
So.much for the serious aspect of our
Presidential contests ; and now let us look.
at the other side. That there is sonde fun
even in a defeat, we have ample evidence.
Knowing as we do that there are a thou.
sand disappointments in store for the
"rank and file" of the successful party—
that the heart-burnings and jealousies of
the aspirants have just commenced—that
tote will denounce Dick as a Democrat in
disguise, and that Dick will denounce .Toe
in turn as a drag upon the party, each hav
ing an eye tosome "fatoffice." which when
obtained will prove to he lean,—knowing
all this, and much more, we can ...tend
back and laugh, and thank Providence
that hereafter when we defend the Demo
cratic party from the assaults of its enemies
we shall not be met with the stale cry of
"O,)ou're an office holder." And then
won't it be oar turn to punch up: the "of
fice holders." How we will stihk sharp
sticks into 'em ; how we'll growl Ithout this
extravagance, and about that ; how we'll
swear that the "ins" are all a: pack of
thieves, and the "outs" all saints; how
we'll see "our noble German fellow citi
zens," who have helped to achieve this
victory, quietly ignored, and eventually
kicked, and cuffed, and denounced as a
'set of ignorant dutch," as they used to be
by these native born gentlemen with glaz
ed caps who of late have been parailing . the
streets arm in arm with them, and cud
dling to them like a love sick maiden to a
favorite lover ; aye, indeed won't that be
(swim]. And then, when "old Abe's" race
in run, and these followers of Carl Schurz
have not been given farms in the West, al
ready stocked and improved to their hands,
won't it be rare sport to hear them swear
in the loudest kind of Teutonic at their

done more for Paris iu ten years than could
have been done in a century under the old or

the money of the government, 1111113 freely

and thus removed the chief source of political
trouble in the capital : the want of work among

The people soon learned that they had for a

been the steps by whieh•he reached the throne,
still made it his boast that he derived his pow

Having consolidated France at home, Napo

him and acknowledge his title to his throne,
but actually feel his influence and court his
friendship The Eastern question, under a
sovereign like Louis Philippe, might have been
kept for years in the obscure regions of red-tape
and diplomacy But Napoleon dragged it to
the light, and he cut the Gordian knot with
the sword. But for him, the war with Russia
would not yet have taken place. That War
gave him an opportunity to show the resources
of his empire, the strength of his army, and
the vigor of his administration It brought
him also into alliance with two of the most
liberal powers of Western Europe, England and
Sardinia. From the alliance thus made, sprang
up, under the wise negotiation of Cavour, the
closer relations between France and Sardinia,
out of which arose the question of Italian
union and liberty, which is even yet in process
of sul ut ion. In e trout ing his policy concerning
