To this, perhaps, is to be attributed the fact that the 26th ult. passed over, Paris remained tranquil. and The Emperor was, however, not unprepared, even though Victor Hugo had not uttered his emphatic | negative, and the chagrined Deputies had carried out their threat of mesting whether the Government attended or not. was filled with troops. Paris This says much: for Paris does not now offer to insurrection the advantageous field it once did. To beautify was not the only object of the recent changes in that city. The military engineer had perhaps a little more to de with the plans than the civil architect. The Emperer has ever shown himself equal to the greatest emergencies, and it may be presumed, that whatever future exigencies may arise, his tact will not forsake him. An external cause of uneasiness to Napo- leon,may possibly arise from the eventuality of a member of the House of Orleans being elected to fill the Spanish throne. Diplo- macy, however, can easily overcome this difficulty, General Prim, when on his visit to Paris to offer thanksgivings for the past, would hardly neglect to consult the oracle of the Tuilleries regarding the future. The condition of the kingdom of Italy is deplorable: a burcen to itself, and a fruit- ful cause of anxiety to its neighbors. Year after year the malady grows. ‘Taxation is stretched to its most oppressive limits: still the national deficit increases. Mazzinian societies, whose first aim is the overthrow of kings, plot rebellion openly. When the lethargic Government, in self-preservation, would call the conspirators to account, the . societies have only to say, beware—the grip of the legal official relaxes, and the culprit is restored to liberty with honor. There is something weak to imbecility, in the Gov- ernment which can be diverted from its purpose by the scowl of Garibaldi. Could the blood of those who opposed the establishment of the Kingdom of Italy have cemented its foundations, we would not now behold it in the degrading impotency to which it is reduced. In what used to be the Kingdom of Naples, in less than six years, more than twenty-five thousand per- sons have suffered death for political offen- ces. The carnage goes on still. A few months ago 58 persons, from the age of 21 to 74, who had been imprisoned on political charges, were shot down as they left their places of confinement, after having been de- clared innocent. A member of the Chamber of Deputies, stood up in his place in the Chamber, and, after reading out the names of the murdered men, asked the Minister of Justice for an explanation. The official took the list, and there the matter ended. This occurred on the 10th of June last. When such things can be proposed for en- quiry in the Senate House of a nation, and the Minister of Justice shrugs his shoulders in despondent helplessness, we are tempted to regard the Black Hole of Calcutta, and the valley of Gleaco, with a degree less of vver, 10 there days of distribution of tiles in the ; iii horror for the atrocities there perpetrated, | emall and ansatisfactory interest ow the himself in antagonism to the violent coun- Sin,—I tranemit to you herewith a copy of 4) take in their welfare, We. & : ihe rune lie who eae him, and advised despatch I have addressed to the Governor of the raaich, in the “ Patriot be wspuper, of tt c : § . se a Several arrests) ie ease is within the province of care, and | him for their own ends.

The interest which a people feels in its institutions can generally be me wsured, with clear tolerable correctness, from the manner in which they exercise their electoral franchise. If this be so, the statistics of the latest Italian elections are far from encouraging. Bo- |logna, with 8,260 electors, sent to the urns 1.721: Frevisco, with 1,623, sent 451. In Turin only afew voted, and in Genoa none at all. In Florence, the seat of the Govern- ment, 800 votes were given, out of an eléctoral roll numbering 8,120. With such figures before us, it is not too much to as- sert that the present political institutions of Italy, are very little cared for by the in- habitants.

Jonson hus rem: rked on the old adage, “many laws betoken a corrupt nation,’? that he fears it might be said with equal truth, “many books betokeu an ignorant nation.” Whatever strength there may be in the worthy Dctors parallel, one good at least results from a multiplicity of books. Ycn are allowed a selection, aud in no species of publication is this benefit more apparent than in that of Magazines. His principles must be peculiar, and his dispesitions wayward, who fails to find something congenial in modern Magazine literature. Here is McMillan’s, for instance, combining in no ordinary degree the sweet and the useful Through several numbers Prof, Seeley has continued his admirable essay on Roman Imreralism. To those who care for studying the condition of things in these far off timee, nuthinz could be more instructive, even though dissent from the writers opinions, may Occussi bully interfere. He traces the causes Which led to the full of the Roman Empire with mach persmeuity, and establishes his theory of the process of de-line and final collapse by references xt once strikivg ard convincing. We have all been led, more on less, tu suppose that the fall of Rome took its origin in the *¢moral degeneration of the Romans, caused by luxury aud excessive goud fortune.” Professor Sceiey calis this in ques- lim, and ass ris that the “ immediate cause to which the fall of the Empire isto be attribu- Meu were Waning; the Empire perished for want finen.” Fic this want of men it came that the army had to be recruited, and husband. men supntied to ull the fields from the bar- barie nations that lay along the frontier. In fact “the Burbarian cecuryced the Roman Eim- ire almeest as the Angl -Sazon is occupying ted is «a paysical net a moral decay, North America: he sctt!ed and peopled rather than conquered it.’’ When Julius Caesar rose to power he found the population thin, his successor enacted laws which he rigidiy en- forecd, offering privileges and precedences to those who married. The Romans sternuous!y (as the Greeks before them had do: €) resisted the enactment. There was a veneral reluct- ance to rear fami'ies. cluims Professor Seeley, **eccurd.ng to our notions the conditions of Socieiy must have been; how directly opposite from the present one the view juestion of populati.n, and how unlike the present cne the yiew taken by people in gener ral of marriage may be judged from this law.

Marriage with us ‘8 w pleasure, for which a man must be content ecuniary investment, but en intolerably dis- agreeable one.” Ia describing the influence which Christian- ity exerted over Roman Society, Professor Seeley advances theories which certainly will be severely scrutinized by writers who deem themselves orthodox, aud every other writer who differs from them dangerous. The two line deductions of truth are as apt to mislead as the subtilities which prevent it. itisin the former, perhaps, that Professor Seeley sius.
