"The supremacy of the party that
elected Gen. Grant is fast passing away
in the South, and it is growing weaker
I all over tho North. Before the reaction
I culminates, and while yet there is time
to temper or avert the shock of defeat,
it behooves the head of the administra

j do so better thau by traversing the re?

ney to the Southward of Washington."
Tho Springfield Republican has so
much character as nu organ of its party
that it can afford to speak the plain
truth, as' it takes frequent occasion to
do, and as it docs in tho paragraph
above. The supremacy of the party

field organ thinks that, by pursuing a
wise and prudent policy, ho can temper
his coming defeat, and in some measure
avert tho shock of it, but it holds out
no hope that the defeat itself can bo
prevented. We doubt the justness of

THE FRENCH Burras-SPEECH OF THE
MINISTER OEFOREICVN Ayr AIRS-THE FM
PEKOE'S POLICY.-The Prince dc la Tour
d'Auvergne, Minister of Foreign Affairs,
in opening the Council-General of the
Vienne, said:
"Thanks to the august initiative, the
power of Which we are accustomed to I
admire, France has passed in ii few weeks
from disorder to calm, and from uncer?
tainty to confidence. To the liberal
message which the country saluted with
its acclamations, have succeeded, first,
the Senatita Consultum, submitted at j
this moment to the examination of thc !
Senate, and next, the amnesty, which in- !
vitos ns all to rcconciliaton and union. |
These are assuredly important acts, and |
well calculated to increase our gratitude
towards the Emperor and strengthon oar
confidence in tho fntnre. On iny part, I
feel no way embarrassed in speaking iu
this manner, for I am profoundly con?
vinced that in this cireumstancol remain
tho faithful interpreter of your thoughts, t
I doubt not, but that iu effect you all '?
consider the Government to have en?
tered frankly upon a line of conduct en?
tirely in conformity with the aspirations
of tho country; and Iventure to hopo
that you will all likewise feel confident
of its persevering. This is its duty ns
well as its desire, and tho assistance
whioh wiso and enlightened men of ull
parties will continue to lend will facili?
tate its task. Every interest should, be?
sides, feel confidence in presence of the
cordial accord whioh is daily growing
stronger between the nation and the So?
vereign, who has jost given proof once
moro that he kuows how to protect with
equal firmness our liberties, rights and
honor. I am too well awaro of the senti?
ments which animate you to doubt for an
instant that such is your manner of ap?
preciating the situation. I shall havo
but a few hours to spend in the midst of
you during this session, and so I will ab?
stain from entering on those questions
which aro about to become the special
subject of your deliberations. I know,
besides, that they are in good hands, and
that the interests of our department can?
not find more zealous or moro expe?
rienced advocates than yourselves."
SALES-DAY.-There was a larger at
tendance from tho country on last Mon?
day than on any sales-day for some
months past. In conversations with
many persons from various parts of the
County, we find there is a general com
plaint of tho shortness of tho corn crop, i
aud that cotton is in all stages, from very
poor to pretty fair. We note the follow?
ing sales:
T. S. Jefferys, assignee in bankruptcy,
sold ono tract of land belonging to
estate of Robert Ferguson, containing
2803? aoree, at $5.80 per acre, which was
bought by tho bankrupt. Also one tract
of 281 acres, belonging to estate of

The discussion whioh bas grown up
between the Journals of tho States as to
the "third party" movement soems td
involve rntbor a question pf nomencla
tnre-of party designation-than of
principle or policy. However much we
may deprecate the reanlts of reconstruc?
tion, yet, for the present nt least, they
are "accomplished facts," and it would
be folly to ignore them. Negro suffrage
we believe to be "the direful spring of
woes" unnumbered-the instrument by
which unprincipled men sustain their
"rule and ruin policy;" yet we must ac?
cept tho situation, and fight our foes
with their own weapons, and vanquish
them, as we truBt wo will, ou lielda of
their owu choosing.
The question of suffrage we believe to
be a question belonging wholly to thu
States, but our Legislature has com?
mitted us to the fifteenth amendment,
and no action here eau change tho re?
sult. However much, thou, wo may en?
dorse the position of tho Ohio Demo?
cracy on this question of negro suffrage,
it is to us no longer a practical issue.
Did we stand npou tho same ground, we
might tight with the snme weapons; but
if we of tho South aro to conquer radi?
calism, we must do it with the aid of the
uegro himself. Hence, whatever name
wo may adopt, whether "Liberal Demo?
cracy" or "ConservativeRepublicanism,"
we must still stand upon tho Massachu?
setts platform, accept the facts of recon?
struction, and ignore all else but practi?
cal issues. To redeem our Stats from
tho oppression of radical misrule is our
tirst duty, and "auti-rudicalism" should

SIONIPTOANCE or PRINCE NAPOLEON'S
SPEECH.-The London Times, in an arti- !
clo on thc Fronoli' situation, says many
think Prince Napoleon's speech was only
a foeler to arrive at knowledge of men's
minds. If so, it was promptly answered.
Tho clamor raised places the real liberal
aspirations of Franco beyond a doubt.
The Prince's speech may be taken as tho
programme of the Imperial Government,
such as must arise when the present men
and principles aro removed, and when
tho Constitution is reformed ou tho basis
of national sovereignty, municipal self
government and ministerial responsibili?
ty. Prince Napoleon's part in the new
order of things depends ou the chances
of tho Emperor's recovery. Should the '
Emperor live, a liberal ministry, with
Trinco Napoleon at tho head, would be
an experiment worth tryiug. If the Em?
peror's absence from tho Cabinet is to
be indefinitely prolonged, it is difficult
to seo who could dispute tho lieutenancy
of the empire with Priuco Napoleon.
The present crisis in France cannot bo j
without grave consequences; aud tho |
Prince har, placed himself in a position
in which it will bo no good policy for tho
Emperor to dispense with or overlook
him. !
Tho young gentleman who at present
occupies the throne of the Flowery
Kingdom, and who declines to receive
upon a footing of equality the Duke of
Edinburg-Qaeen Victoria's secoud son
-is not yet fifteen, and is about to be
married. The putting on of such "shang
high airs" by tho infant Emperor
though the Regent, Prince Kong, is, of
course, nt the bottom of the business
seems far more than absorb to John
Dull, and he hasn't yet determined
whethor to laugh or cry. Tho Brother
of the Sun and Moon certainly has some
reason to consider himself a little more
exalted than tho ordinary princes of the
earth, but it is likely he could havo re- ;
ceived, upon a footing of perfect equali- ?
ty, tho young cub of the British lion
without seriously endangering his stand?
ing in society. But then, as Edinburg
is merely the captain of a ship just now,
with a Parliamentary allowance of $75,
000 a year, there is no telling what the
result might have been.
RADICAL RESOLUTIONS.-The radical
State convention of Wisconsin, ou tho
1st instant, nominated candidates and
adopted resolutions. It resolved that all
men have an inalienable right to liborty,
moaning, probably, that they havo this
inalienable right except whero somo sa?
trap sees fit to alienato it by ordering
thc arbitrary arrest and imprisonment of
mon without trial or accusation. It re?
solved that liberty of speech and free?
dom of tho press arc tho best guarantees
of republican institutions, meaning no
doubt, such liborty of speech and free?
dom of tho press as aro secured by thc
annihilation of tho civil authorities of
States and tho striking down of the ha?
beas corpus. It resolved in favor of
"prompt acquiescence in the decision of
the peoplo at tho ballot box," moaning,
of course, such "prompt acquiescence"
as is exhibited by tho radical authorities
in the decision of tho people of Virginia
nt tho ballot box.

By ADVICE or THE EMPF.I OK.-Tho
French Senate, which a day or two be-1
foro had rejected tho proposed liberal
amendments of tho Senatus Consultant,
touching tho constitution of tho Souate,
by a vote of V?'? to 19, adopted thom on
Monday last, by a voto of 134 to il-no
doubt upon a hint from the Emperor.
Thus tho Priuco Napoleon, in his able
speech in support of said amendments,
was, if in opposition to tho Emperor,
too strong for tho Emperor himself.

A Russian Prince has written a biog?
raphy of the late Czar Nicholas, in
which he relates tho following anecdote:
Tho Emperor ordered a review, and, in
spite of tho entreaties of his doctor, in?
sisted on riding forth in the cold. Even
when he was iu the court-yard of his
palace, Dr. Mundt renowed his supplicn- I
I tions, and begged his Majesty at least to
throw a cloak over him. The Czar re
m ni ned deaf to every warning. "Sire,
you are ill; it will bo your death;" and at
last, "Sire, it is suicido yon are about to
commit." At this expostulation, Nicho?
las turned sharply, and asked tho physi?
cian by what authority ho ventured to
scrutinize his thoughts. He held his re?
view, got a chill, and expired after a
short illness.
