Wherefore an overruling Providence permit such an apparently mean- inglese war, with such an appalling amount of slaughter, has confounded the wisest; but already a silver lining creeps round the dark edge of the cloud, renewing faith again that tbe powers of dark, cess do not entirely prevail.

The overthrow of the Napoleonic dynasty, the eutablishment of the republic of France, the movements in Italy, the quickening of the pulse of republicanism throughout tbe earth, and, finally, tbe crowning glory. of this monster meeting in cautious nnd sluggish England, show dearly that tbe madness of despots has been the people's opportunity, and out of all this strife and desolation is destined to rise, white robed, the goddess of genuine freedom. In contemplating this providence, it reasonable to look yet for peace. Tbe fires necessary for purification have sot yet done their work. Despotism has but commenced tbe revelation of its real character.

be people of England are inst awaking to what it is in their midst. It has commenced its mad career. Let It finish and be done with it, as we think it is destined to do. This meeting is full of glorious promise. is a stake fairly planted, showing tbe progress of the people far in advance of any previous attitude.

Whether tbe fruits which such indications surely promise shall have a hot house development through tbe infernal fires kindled by ibefe rulers, or shall wait the slower growth of ordinary conditions, will be for the rulers to determine. At present all appearances indicate that tbe madness which has inspired the state of things protested against by this meeting, is of a kind that ends only with tbe dt-ttructioc se by it. 1888 of more than 62 per cent- falling eft" of the-majority in the first district is less than 80 per cent. Our dispatches of yesterday gave tbe official republican majority on the gubernatorial vote at lesa than 9,000. Grant majority in Maine was 28,030.

The First and Last Napoleon. Tew editors bad the good fortune to "chronicle with their pens tbe overthrow of both the first and the last of the Napoleons One of I hese is a western tbe editor of Tbe Canton In hisfissue of the 9tb inst. he publishes the of the captueof the last emperor- at Sedan, and- republishes from that paper of Auguat 1815, a despatch an- nonncing the capture of the first emperor at Waterloo. The declaration of Napoleon I. is published, and runs thus: FBIKOHHSS: In commencing war to sup" port the independence of the French nation, 1 calculated upon the co-operation of all.

I had reason to hope for success, and I have braved all the denunciations of the powers me. Circumstances have changed I offer myself a sacrifice to the hatred of the enemies of Prance. My'political life is ed, and I proclaim my eon, under the title of Napoleon emperor of the French. Dore the palace of ygium, the 22d of June, 1815. (Signed) NAPOIEOS.

The most startling circumstance ia the difference in the time of sending the two despatches. That of 1815 left Waterloo on June 18th, and reached Canton, Ohio, on August more than two months on the way. That of 1870, left Sedan on the afternoon of Sept. 2, and was published the next afternoon.

What the population of Paris was then, tbe peasantry is still.

At this very moment certain departments ore threatened with another terror. It. is the most unhappy part of the situation of Prance that there ia a hopeless gulf of intelligence consequently of moral and political aspiration, between city anl country.

The jury also recommend, among other things that the reward for tbe arrest of the murderer be modified, eo as to inelude jnnni'y from prosecution for an accomplice or en accessory, there should be such, provided he gives all the knowledge reutive to the crime in his possession. Notwithstanding all the pretended mystery about the Nathan murder, there to much reason to believe that the New Tork police are entirely satisfied as to all the circumstances ol the murder, and that BO arrest is made simply because the essary proof is wanting (o secure the Tictian of the criminal. But "murder will out," and the murderer will yet aish the link in the testimony now missing.
