Show MORE TROUBLE FOR PARIS.j The (kcrco aljuIi.iliinK the ECDttntej of expulsion, f'urnii:rly pronounced aain.-.t the OrlcauLit princes, has panted the French Assembly. Tlie election of the princes in declared valid. It is said they decline to hit and aree to ah.it ain fruiu intriguing. Strong efforts arc beinjj mado to cllect a fraternization fra-ternization between Lho soldiers and tho people. Thiers is plotting; all classes are dissati.-tiod; and more trouble trou-ble is ci peeled. Such id the leiiur of tho di-.patches received yesterday from I'aii, and another revolution appears probable. The faet is, tho demagogues who aspire as-pire to power in France mean to "rule or ruin;" and most likely their rule would bo ruiu. The Comuiuui-iLs proposed pro-posed to abolish cla.ii and caste distinctions, dis-tinctions, and make everybody equally happy and equally oomibrtable. They commenced their work by vandalism and butchery. They wero defeated, dispersed; and now another ect of aspirants as-pirants lor power appear determined to curse their country with all tho ills they can inllief, rather than play the part of good and patriotlo citizens by Hccking their country's good. The indications in-dications point to a speedy elevation of iho Orlcauiats to tho throno, or the restoration of tho empire; for the promise prom-ise of the lirat is liko piecrust made to bo broken, while thcro is no doubt the adherents of tho latter are busily at work. Tho trouble with French republicanism republi-canism 'm, that those who desiro a republic re-public have tho most di verso views as to the principles upon which it should bo conducted. Many hold tho views of Fourier; many would desire to see a republican government that would combiuo tho splendor and most of tho privileges of a monarchy with certain peculiar viows of theirs as to tho condition tho plobians should occupy. And between these extremes are numerous vague theories and notions no-tions governing tho minds of thousands. Until tho French people can understand under-stand better than they now do, the real blessings and what is necessary for the ooutinuanco of a repubho, suoh a permanent per-manent form of government for that nation is impossible; and so intrigue 1 follows intrigue, trouble follows trouble, and ruin is spread around on every hand. A plebiseituui tho expressed will of the people, of those plcbians on whom the patricians look with scarcely concealed scorn is necessary to settle tho present troubles of Paris aad of Franco. |
