COLTMB??, STC. Tues lay Morri?a, February 1,1870. FB&XC?? POLITICS. Wo m liku tho following extract from tho Paris correspondence of the New York Journal of Commerce. It will givo oar readers some sight into Frenoh poli? ties, DOW not a little disbursed. Whilst thoonthusiast and agitator, Moos. Rocho fort represents tho element irreconcilably opposed to tho Empire, it is likely that jost ??ch views asthoso expressed by the Debals.vi)l\ ultimately provaik It is like? ly that France will bo satisfied with tuc Emperor, provided ho win givo a reason? able liberty, and, at the samo timo, kcop order It is likely that tho Emperor will kcop his word, when he said with dignity and significance- "I will bo responsible for order." Hut to thc extract: A manifesto of considerable impor? tance, occupying nearly three columns and signed by its political director, M. Edouard Bertis, appeared yesterday iu the Debata. At thc opening of a session which may "ox roiso agroatinflnonee on tho destinies of the country," tho Debate dooms it necessary to make a frank de? claration of its policy. EverL-incc 1814, it says, that policy has never really va? ried, and has hod for objoct, under all regimes, "the sincere and loyal establish? ment of representative aud parliamentary government." In a review of the past, worked with its usual discretion and not without a- juntifiablc pride in its consis? tency, the D?bats establishes this very honorable position. Even under tho re? public, nf 1848, it says, such as might bo either ita faith in, or sympathy for, that "surprise" imposed upon the country, it did'not hesitate to rally to tho moderate party aud tho government. And io proof of this assertion, an anecdote is related of what passed at the time, botween the D?bats odd Geo. Oavaignac; M. Armand ( Bertin, who then represented tho Jour- , naif took the liberty of stating to tho Gc- ' neral his opinion that "Franco had no wish for a republic/' "I agree with y.ou,".dav?iguaa replied, "but wo hopo to bring her over to our way of thinkiug." ? "I doubt much of your success," was M. Berlin's answer: "but nevertheless, it j shull ?ot be onr fonl* if you do not .MIC- I ceed, aud wo will offbr you no embarraba ment;" and tho promise was kept. But i after a coup d'etat, effected against tho legitimate representatives of tho country, ! tho case was different. Even admitting, | which tho D?bats docs not, that a dicta torship was tho ouly remedy, still, thc sight of that dictatorship, surviving be? yond the circumstances which gavo birth to it, and subsequently transforming itself into a government which, "under the mere disguise of a constitution, was uothing less (no mnttor how moderately used) than another name for despotism;" iu such a case involving tho uogation of every political principle mostdear to it opposition, tho D?bats says, became a duty. But oven then, it claims tho credit of being just; and if it blamed and de? plored the suppression of tho liberties of tho press and of tho tribune, and refused either to admire or support such enter? prises as that of Mexico, it applauded tho treaty of commerce, and the war which restrained tho ambition of llussia und established tho iodepeodonce of Ita? ly. ?o now, tho Dcbats "does justico to tho Emperor for having entered sponta? neously on that cour ie of liberal reforms, which it would ouly desire to seo him pursue with a firmer and moro decided step." Lot him hut be content with the power which ia sufficient for the Qnocn of Euglaud, the Kini; of Belgium, tho Emperor of Austria, tho King of Italy renou nco a personal authority, become incompatible with circumstanced, cease to be dazzled with those mad conquests of tho First Empire, which only resulted iu making Franco detested by ull Europe, and iu her final humiliation; let him, with a really liberal Ministry, prosecute those pacific reforms which can aloco in? sure stability to peace, justice und civil and religious liberty, and he shall find the D?bats, at loast, far from persisting iu systematic or irreconcilable hostility, ready, on such ground, to aid bim in all his efforts. The above manifesto is a frank offer of tiujbport, made with oonsiderablo dignity, aud no doubt also with a just pride at seeing its own ideas, after being so long alighted and discredited, onco moro nil but absolutely predominant. Consistent journalism, journalism conducted upon principles of conviction and a senso of duty, is now unfortunately no rare, that I nave thought tho example above sot, deserved to be noticed and recorded. --, -.
