That we acknowledge it as t 0 Government of France which France chooses to accept for herself. But, as it is not our business to lag be- hind in this respect, so it is not our busi- ness to go before France. Before the Government exercising power in France has been recognised, are we to be ex- peeved to pronounce an opinion which

rance has not expressed? What is the position of the French Government ex- ercising power in Paris and Tours ? Ilow did they describe themselves? They are not themselves carrying out the Gov crnment. They have been appointed for the calling together of a rcpt-escrin tive body—referring their case to that body, and deriving their title from the approval of that body.

The recognition of the late Empire of France did not take place until after the vote of the people. The vote of the people took place on the let ofthe month,and the recognition took place on the 4th.

WAR RUMORS IN RUSSIA.

Tire Daily News Correspondent writes as follows from St. l’ctcrsburg, Sep- tember 26 :—

The city is full ofrumors ofa war with Turkey, which take their rise in a report that a fleet of'iron clads, supposed to be bought in America, is said to be cruising near the Turkish coast. and in the fact, that Gen. Ingatiefl‘, the Russian Minister at Constantinople, is in town. The rumors are so presistent that a semi- oflicial announcement is published to—duy that the Government does not intend to deviate from the principle of neutrality laid down at the beginning of the war. As a war with Turkey Would have noth- ing to do with the present war between Germany and France. this announcement 's diplomatically ambiguous. M. West- mann, the ml‘ioint Minister of Foreign Allairs, said the other day to a Russian friend of mine, that the Government had no intention of using force 10 anhul the treaty of Paris. In spite of all this there is something in the air. Changes in the position of troops have certainly been made. Every day regiments go past my window, evidently either arriv— ing or departing, for they are without arms or knupsucks, their baggage being probably sent to the trains in vans. Carr- non, too, are being taken past, usually at night, and are probably intended for Cronstadt. It is reported from Moscow that from tomorrow there will be only one passenger train south until further orders, as 14 trains of soldiers must be taken daily. The newspapers all talk of the lastcrn question, and the necessity of the abrogation of the Treaty of Paris. The same talk is in everyone’s mouth. Some have no doubt that Prince Got-ts- chakofl'bas made up his mind to be rid of that treaty, and very soon. I am of the same opinion, but though I give you all these things, '. have no apprehension of war. Russia has too much to risk, even though it is now in point. of fact the arbiter of Europe. ll'Bismarck is not too wily for Gortschakofl', and the Prince is hard to dupe, some peaceful way will be found to settle the whole thing. Indeed, if Bismarck only con-

sents to keep quiet, no one will dare ob- ject to the demand of'Russia.

Turk e y

the case."——Thus spoke Mr. Gladstone : but'hccording to the Times, his answer should. have been that he and his Gov- ernment had, in fact, already recognized the French Republic. Probably the nest thing he will be asked to do is to rcCog- nine the “ English Republic ” also.

THE CONSTITUTIONAL CRISIS IN ENGLAND. ‘ .

The attempt to found thrinstitutions of the future will be made in England under some critical conditions, partly common to her with other nation, partly peculiar to herself. Peculiar to her, in degree, at least, are the contrast between the extremes of wealth and poverty. and this presence ofmasscs of want,ignorance and criminal propensity close to the streets of luxurious palaces. The pro- letariat is beginning to appear in the great American cities, and to raise the formidable problems connected with its existence; and this is one of the most important element in the change which has passed over American society since it was observed by De Tocqueville. But in England the danger is at. its height, and though the explosive forces of a Ii‘aubourg, St. Antoine slumber long. in a day of revolutionary excite- ment. they may awake. There is a peculiarity also in the political aspect of the Trades’ Unions in England, at least, as compared with their political aspectin this country. In England, the suffrage was so long withheld from the artisans that they have formed polity an industrial, with objects, laws and a government ofits own outside, the polity of the nation Such a power can hardly fail, in tlrie industrial age. in some way to affect the course of political progress. On the other hand, a feature of the sit- uation, common to England, with all the loading nations, is the critical position which it is impossible to ignore, of the religious faith which has hitherto formed the foundation offbe political as well as the social morality of the world. It may be true that the doctrine of future rc- wards and punishments has not operated with all the force which theologians have assumld ; but assuredly the motives which hitherto led the mass of men to keep their selfish passions in subordp nation to the common good. and tlierc~ by to render government other than that of more force possible, will be found, if analysed. to be fundamentally reli- gions. The connection of atheism and imperialism is most marked perhaps in Hobbes. but it is visible through the viable history. of political hilosoplry. Regionalism as not yet eveloped a

tire side, and between the decay of field support and the growth of the new, there my be an Interval perilous to humanit . On the other hand, the M S . of science is beginning to tell on politics, by substituting animation, for usumption and calm in- ' for passion. The

would if she could; but France is crip- pled, and England is not in a position to fight. even if she cares much now about the Eastern question. Public opinion and the newspapers are against the de- mands of Prussia and the annexation of Alsace and Lorraine. Even the Govern. ment Messenger, the acknowledged of- ficial journal, objects to if. in a strong, well-considered article. The cession of hqu of the French fleet will be mostrcso- lutcly opposed here, so for, at least, as diplomacy can preventit. Russiaby no means desires to have Prussia in a (1:in beconrc superior to it in the Baltic. The Err/range Gazelle to-duy, in its leading article. condemns the arrest of Jacoby, the well-known Prussian democrat. It seems that demonstrations against the annexation of an unwilling province are not allowed in the " free and civilized "' Germany. Theirs has not yet urrrivcd.

TIIE ROM A N I’LEBISCITUM.

The morality which allowed Giovanni Lanza and Quintins Sella to send an army to invade Romc,oontrary to the rights of nations, cannot forbid putting ayes by handfuls in the urns. Indeed, what guarantee can Europe have. of the truth of all those ayes which will shortly be proclaimed to the world? Ilow can it believe that the Romans, who have hitherto been so faithful to the Pope. and during the last ten years have given him so many proofs of filial love, all at once have so unanimously rejected and denied him? In September, 1861, liarou Bet. tirro Ricasoli, who was then Minister for Foreign Afl'uirs, brought out at the same time. at London and Paris, a little work. entitled “The Emperor, Rome, and the King of Italy.” In this work a plebis- ci/umof the Roman people was proposed; but the writer said :-—" The ph’biscilmn will take place under the eyes of the French army. Who will then look upon it with suspicion? The next day, if Victor Emmanuel is called upon to reign in Rome, the French troops will be re- placcd by Italian troops.” 'l‘hereforc. even Baron Ricasoli acknowledged that a plebiscilum made in Rome after the entry of troops hostile to the Pope, was something highly ridiculous, and could have no weight. What would you say of aplebt‘scilum of the Florentines if the Pontifical Zouaves held power at l"lor~ once I Look at what was done by Na- poleon III. ; for he was apparently more sincere and loyal than you. When you yielded Nice and Savoy to France, by means of a plebiscihun, the Empire took good care not to occupy those provinces Iirst,und then interro rate the population. Europe would have aughed at a plebi's~ n’lum voted under such circumstances. Nice and Savoy first answered (we, and then the French entered and took pos- session of them. In like manner you should have waited for the plebiscitum of the Romans before entering Rome. But, instead of doing so, you bombard and take the Eternal City. and, when you are masters of it, you fntorrogate the

that you are thoroughl y convinced of the aversion of the Romans to our tyranny ;

supposing that the Romans should wer no. would you leave Rosie? would not leave It.
