decline op England.
The correspondent of the Congrestion
alist thus speaks of the position of Eng.
land : Oue of the most impressive Its
aons of the recent war in Europe is that
of the decline of England from a first to
second class power in continental nt-fairs-.
While the journals of Prussia,
Austria, Italy, Switzerland havo been
daily occupied with reports, specula
tions.VliscuMiocs concerning tho sayings,
doings and intentions of tho French
Emperor, England has not been so much
as oamed as a party having a voico in tho
sotlloment of European affairs except in
the court of a general Congress, llus
sia is canvassed as a possible combatant;
but nobody asks, vl at d -os England
think, or what will England do? Louis
Napoleon has avenged Waterloo. lie
has crowded England back from the po
sition of a detator or nil arbiter in tho
affairs of Europo to the position of a
- spectator, beholding without reinon
slraneo the map of Europo re-adjusted
in violation of the treaty of Vicuna, ami
by the open interference of a Napoleon,
The policy of iioii.intervint'on nnd of
self-regard, which England had pursued
tor tho past twenty years, has greatly
weakened her old prestige upon the
continent. Slio lost a grand opportunis
ry when she left Hungary to struggle
alone ; she lost another when she left it
to Louis Napoleon to take Ilia lead in
tho redemption of Italy ; she lost nnoth
er when she allowed Denmark to bo in.
Taded by Aust ia and Prussia, and so
gave to Prussia a foothold upou the sea;
aud when to those neglects sho added
that of slighting our causo, and of feed
ing tho enemies of human liberty, and
froa institutions with tho munitions of
war, she lost her prestigo for ttio lliglit
la international affairs. All this may
have been good policy for, her own ag
grandizement at home i though even
that is doubtful ; but it has ken a des.
tructive policy for her influence, both
political and moral, in tho community of
civilized nations.-
Hussia and this Unitud State?. The
Moscow Gazette of the 2Glh inst , con
tains a leading article on iho American
friendship, which shows the stato of
popular feeling in Ilussia with reference
to tho United States. In substance the
wtiolo in question speaks as follows :
The rapprochement between Russia
aihd America is not one of those artificial
alliances formed by diplomatists, and
i . . i.. .
iruiviii ii.ivu no real vitality, it is a
friendship of a natural growth, destined
to flourish. Both countries have j'ist
issued from great difficulties, In 18(53,
at the tho time of tho Polish insurree
tion, tho two nations first shook hands
OJrdially. Solid interests and real power
prooced from tho manifestation of uatiun
al sympathies. At tho same lime there
is nothing to startleor frighten the world
in sueh nn nllianco. It is merely the
basis of a new distribution of power, and
and the inauguration of n new interna
tional system, of which tho effects in the
interests of civilization and general
progress aro immeasurable This new
alliance will abolish tho system of false
artificial allinnco now prevailing in En.
ropo. Tho now relations between Has,
eia and tho most powerful nation of'ilio
New World would entail-certain obligiu
tions, which are tho more easy of ftillill
ment sinoo they coincide with the inter
ests of Russia, properly understood.
An alliance with tho United Stales is
tho only alliance on which Itussiu can
reckon in timo of need, llunia can
never have any subject of quarrel -with
the United Statos, and tho allinnco of
the the two countries will afford mutual
strength in everything connected with
weir several interests. Is it not true
that tho enemies ot Kussia are equally
enemies ot tho United .Stales 1 Is it not
also true thaY Kussia and tho United
States will always, and under all circum
stances, have common foes. Theso con
siderations form a strong basis for an
alliance, which must not be weakened
by any closer connection w ith Europe.

TnEinTlttiH FRIENDS.
The true frionds of the Southern pco
plo are tho loyal masses of the North.
Theso are too independent politically,
la number and prestige, to need the par
ty support of lho South, and aro there
fore under no temptation, like tho Demo
crats struggling tor power, either to
deceive or to wrong Southern people
Tho counsels und tho action of lho loyal
people toward lho South will bear tho
closest sei utiny ot truth nnd candor.
Those, therefore, who represent tbom as
enemies to the Southern uooulo. or
Stales, do tho torniei a great wrung and
lho latter a great injury.
Tho loyal Noith, or, in other words,
tho Republican party, requires nothing
which it docs not itself practice Ii
wants tho honest and faithful support ot
tho United Stales Government, and iusl
and equal representation, according to
the voting population, in u)l the States,
as set forth in tho Constitutional A.nend
ment And these demuuds, wo believe,
would bo moro promptly met, if it woro
not tor tho pernicious course of the
Northern Democrats, conservatives, cop
perheads, sympathisers, or whatever their
namo is. Aud wo deem it one of lho
most hopeful symptoms that we havo yet
seen in the South, that somo of their
journals begin to seo und declare the fol
ly of being deluded by the deceptive
promises held out to them by their pro-
tended friends, and of leaning upon such
n broken reed as tho shattered and faith

counsel of their higher class of journals,
iu their calm moments their political
rcoonslriiction will go on surely and

with -safety, under the friendly auspices
et ihe United Statos Gov rnment. As
their false Northern friends and South
ern leaders protracted tho war for their
o.vn selfish objects and by the most atro
cious moans, so now ihey are hindering
tho work of reconstruction, tor tho samo
purposes and by simiiar deceptions. No
parly can restore tho Union. It is tho
wfik of the Government itself. And no
department of tho Government by itself
can do it. Let the Southern people,
withdraw their misplaced ' confidence)
from the Northern party that has sunk
into infamy, even at homo, by its wrong,
doings, and from tho President as a
single department of lho Government,
and trust only and entirely to tho whole
Government, Executive, Congress and
tho Judiciary, and all .will go tvu'l
