How will it sound for such an address as his to go abroad und be read by the enemies of our Jand on the Continent! With what scorn will hey yiew this destruction of the wall of decency; this overthrow of all the barriers of conventional politenees! Weill may we be subjected to ridicule when a leader in the land so far sacrifices his good sense. his propricty, to his passions, asto speak of the highest p fon in our country as though he were a mis- erable lobbyist or an ignorant and subservient pot-house politician. We regret most keenly this disgraceful tone, this language so at ya- riance with the demands of he commonest amenities of life. For come what may, be the President guilty of the violation of every coms mand in the Decalogue, it is certainly inappro- priate to aadress him with any other than his oMcial title. Itis the office, not the man; and when any Congressman so far demeans him- self as to permit his tongue to speak in the lan- guage of Mr. Stevens, he forgets what is due to his own self-respect as mnch as he does that deference which is the right of the Chief Ex- ecutive of America. and abused Speech the Emperor Maximilian.

Thanks to the disinterested intervention of France, be was enabled to make peace succeed to war, and devoted himself without intermission to insti- tute valuable interior reforms. He promised liberty to bis people, and during a long period of thirty-five years he fulfilled his word, He promised the country security and tranquility, and he gaye them both to it, consolidating also its independence. He did more—he elevated itto a disunguished rank among the States of S.rope, and even made it one of the first in commercial importance and freedom of thought, leaving its escutcheon and noble fag withoutastain.
