      THE REIGN OF OBDER . If any man were desirous of the reputation of a prophet , French politics are mosi certainly the things which he would avoid foi the exei'dses of his powers of predication . In order to anticipate , with any reasonable probability of beiug right , -we Bhouid have , as the basis of our calculations , stable elements , and a series of events moving forward in a regular progression towards some well-defiued end . There seems to be little or nothing of all this in the French political world . For system fchero is substituted confusion—for order

      chaos—for natural development a sort of volcanic action—for intellectual procedure , bayonets—for legislation , charges of lancersfor the voice of the Judges , the roar of artillery , It is not only the mere inversion of order—it is rnadnesa in its worst paroxysms —affecting every party , and almost every class . In such a state of things , whoro we are hardly able to discern what the present is , it is next to impossible to foresee what the next moment will bring forth ; and , therefore , we say , with extreme hesitation , that it seems to us more likely than not that the President will succeed in building up his power for the present ,

      That conclusion is all the more likely to be correct ; because it is against all our hopesadverse to all o « r sympathies . If . like the faithful of old , "we could believe in a Providence visiting immediate wrath upon the heads of wrong-doers , we should expect that the forked lightning would descend , utid annihilate the brutal scion of the family of one of the greatest scourges of the world , whose blood-stained hand | now holds the destinies of wretched Franco ! But , whatever Providence may have done in the past , we expect no such

      direct retribution from it m the present . The facts of the world militate against such a belief . JS o doubt , in the long run , evil works its own defeat , and good rises triumphant on its ruins ; but , in one generatieu , wrong appears to triumph about as often as right , and Providence is generally on the side of the strongest battalions . No angel comes down now to smite with death in ono night the whole host of the tyrant , but physical force strikes the balance from the hand of Justice , seizes her sword , and , djiug it in the blood of the best of huma . nity , strikes down intellect and enthrones despotism . In the long dark annals of political crime we do not know a moro hideous offender than

      Louis Napoleon , and if posterity accord * him his deserts , it will class him wfth the Caligulas and . the Neros of history . His whole career since his accession to power Iiub been ono of treachery , deceit , and falsehood ; and now he has torn from his character the thin veil of disguise which covered it , and exposed all the baseness of his mind in which a selfish ambition , mingled with a relentlesi cruelty reigns undisturbed by contact with any of the virtues of man . Some may think such expressions as these overcharged , but » calm review of his acts would justify the use of the strongest terms in the vocabulary . If society did not , as Shakespeare hasit' Plate

      sm with gold' and shield crimes behind rank and power , all would stamp that man as one of the vilest of our race ; and when men come to regard crime as crime—whether perpetrated by a pauper or a prince—to look upon murder ub murder whether committed by a ruffian with a halter round hiB neck , or a ruler , whose broast is covered with atara and orders—then they will think the off-scourings of our Newgate Calendar rather disgraced than elevated , when placed in the some category as the chosen ruler of the French .

      tuo mam , moulded their own fates by giving power to the tyrant who seized thorn but wo aIludt ) to the conduct of the troops of Louis Napoleon iu the streets of Paris during iho last few eventful days . What happened there makes most of tho atrocities of modern history Braall and insi gnificant by contrast . If the despots of Austria did shoot Blum at Vienna , they regarded Blum as a criminal . If the j ] j j E <

      militavy satraps of Austria and Russia tiki spill tho richest blood of Hungary , they stood before men with arms in their hands , bravel y fighting for their rights , and they staked thoir lives ia tho issue . If Cavxigsac did slaughter the inmvreetionists of Juno he marched against men who fought from behind barric ; ules and dealt death as well as received it , If ( jHAXGARNIEB did offer to invade England he meant to come as a foe , expecting to fight , and prepared to brave the issue of a struggle . But bud anil odious as all these acts anil initia-J

      tions were—deeply as civilised men hold them in abhorrence—they are venial sins—nay almost virtues—compared with tha deeds of Louis Napoleon and his assassins . Let this be marked down as fit only for the darkest uage of the history of criminality . On the gay Boulevards of Paris Die fiiotwriiys were thronged with people , gazing with e . ' ger curiosity at ; i novel scene . They hud heard of an insurrection , hut they saw no insurgentsthey had been ty'd of ' barricades , but as far as

      the eye could reach there was no obstruction behind which the discontented could shelter themselves . The street was lined by the army , the glory of' la belle Prance . ' The walls were placarded with proulsimntions , that welershould be protected , and all sexes and all ages paraded curiously before the martial array , and the balconies of windows were crowded with speciatf / r .- , Suddenly a shot was fired—or , perhaps , we should say , it is pretended a shot was fired , from one of the houses—the word of command

      was given—the troops faced about—and from both sides of the roadway poured a continuous fire . Against the crowded balconies with their admiring groups—against the thronged windows with their wondering ; faces—against the defenceless crowd upon the footpaths , the defenders of France rained their bullets thick as hail ; against some of the doomed houses cannon roared

      destruction , find iu tho street , where a moment before the laugh and jest were sounding—in the houses whero respectables ' were cougregated to see order preserved—men and women lay wounded , dying , and dead . How macy we cannot toll—we shall never know . The Correspondents of the English press wero at the prefecture , having their communications dictated to them by the employes of the President . Some of them , like tho ' Time ' s ' reporter , too willing to veil the enormity , others who would have told go much of the truth as they could get at , were sensible that their letters would not be suffered

      to pass if the y did . All wo know is the fact , that against a peaceable gathering of men and women bullets were directed , and that as bullets will , whether they strike the innocent ov the guilty , they did their fatal work . Comment on this would bo useless . It is as impossible to blacken such atrocity as to add a hright ray to tho diamond . We verily believe that tho most brutal generals and legions of Nicholas of Russia would have shrank appalled from such guilt . It needed a Napoleon on the seat of power , and in tho streets African troops and generals , who had learnt in the barbarian warfare at the desert to forgot Inimanity , aud to be ready to murder at the word of command . There

      can bo little doubt that this enormity was intended to provoke a conflict on tho part of tho people—so that those who had the spirit t * fight might be slaughtered by the overwhelming army , and the fortunes of the Pubsibeni might be floated on a sea of blood to the haven of Imperial power . if there were to day as there -will bo by and bye , a solidarity of peoples , the whole world would rise iu arms to avenge such a cowardly , barbarous , treacherous act of wanton carnage ; but the solidarity of peoples , although it is growing into life , is yet little more than a namo , and the world rolls ou with its load of blood and crime . The latest intelligence soys

      that « order reigns in Paris . ' That the President , as if to consecrate his brutality by a peace offering to the God of Battles , or rather of Massacres , has restored the Church of St . Genevieve to tho purposes of religion . That tho Commercialists begin to trade again . That the funds are rising , and that though a ' t ' QW Of UlO friends of anarch y' endeavour to struggle in some of the departments , the most they can hope to do is to maintain a short guerilla warfare . The army has as a eign'fi " cant hint to the people voted in the maiu for the promise-breaking homicide . The peop le are to vote now . The mockery of ' a 'ree election' without a press , under martial law , with death decreed for all who endeavour to

      paral yse the action of the Government , is to be the climax of this fearful * cene . Amid such dangers , if there be tho will , the courage w » l probably be wanting in Franeo to oBtraciBO tho Traitor , and beside , no matter what " * & votes are , they are to be counted , and , more mockery , verified' by his aateleites . P ° France , apparently destined some time longer yet to bo tho seed bed of discontent and future Revolution , while the Journal of tho reactionary parties of the world decRrM ' order is restored . ' The order of gu »| T force and sinister fraud on the one hand , of palsied fear and crushed opinion on the other . Such order is and will prove itse « by it « results , worse than , the worst « Anarchies .
