The Position of F; The socialists and their organs in this eountry, appear occasionally to be in an extraordinary state of feverish excitement, in relation to the movements and transactions of their cotloborateurs, the socialists and redrepublicansof France, whomthey are always zealously endeavoring to ape, and whose theories NEW YORK HERALD.

They talk eternally of secret organiza- tions, extensive conspiracies, and formidable plots —of intestine convulsions and revolutions, which are to result in bloodshed, carnage, and death. Having been lately foiled in the execution of their great, and, as they fondly hoped, decisive move- ments, or rather conspiracies, and being aware of the injurious consequences of this failure to their own eause throughout the world, the socialists in France, and thetr contemptible queue in this coun- try, seem to have adopted a policy of a different character than what they have hitherto been ac- customed to pursue. In order to restore in some measure the confidence in their streugih, and the drooping spirits of their copartners, which have ef late been greatly on the decline, they fall on one hand upon the gevernment with vumitigated cen- no sure, denouncing the President, Louis Napoleon, GASTLE GARDEN—Ssonen Concent, __ }| asa tyrant, and stigmatizing the members as trai- —e 1850, | tors to the constitution; while on the other, they an pets Benton: —i ie —————— | make no longer a secret of their motives and pur- poses, but openly vindicate the justice of their course, and dilate upon the magnitude of the power they can command, thereby endeavoring to prey upon the credutily of the populace. Among other important points of the de- mouement relative to the lately meditated in- surrection, which was to have taken place on the night the new electoral law had passed the Assembly, we find a reported invention of a new sort of powder, which proves to be more efficient, lees expensive, and easier fabri- cated than the old kind; together with a statistical account of the numbers of their army, and the ex- tent of their resources. Yet, strange to say, not- withstanding this formidable array of power—not- withstanding their ingenious inventions, their pre- dictions, imprecatiens, denunciations, convulsions, revolutions, and God knows what else—the people are perfectly tranquil, and everything appears to move on in order and regularity. There is no evi- dence of any languor in trade; no sign of any decline in credit; and, from our personal experi- ence and historical knowledge of the ultimate fate of socialists in this country, we may confidently hazard the assertion, that they wil! not succeed in establishing their visionary schemes in France. The few English and French socialists who, with. in the last thirty years, have migrated to these western shores with the view of engrafting their theories on republican soil, generally caused some little excitement in the beginning, which, however, soon died away, and we may reasonably ask, what has now become of the so-called philosophers and master spirits who shone with such splendor a few years ago? Their absurd notions and vision- ary systems, along with their whole train of pre- posterous isms, are treated with ridicule and con. tempt; while the philosophers themselves are either mentioned only as objects of derision, or are lov g since sunk into profound oblivion. Seeing, therefore, that the attempts of these erack-brained individuals to introduce the prin- ciples of socialism among us republicans, who save a jong and practical knowledge of the vorking and tendency of a democratic govern- ment and of democratic institutions, have in- variably proved abortive, how can we possi- bly expeet that the exertions and assiduity of the socialists in France will meet with a more flattering and decided success? The idea would be absurd and preposterous in the extreme; and to couple socialism with republicanism, would involve a monstrous incongruity, for the doctrines of the former, at least as they are promulgated in the writings of its adherenta, are incompatible with, and often in direct hostility to, the principles of « republican constitution. As long, therefore, as the republican form of government shall be maintained throughout France, so long will the socialists be unable to accomplish the objects they have in view. Although the ultras of both the leading parties may, and, in course of time, un- doubtedly will, join to swell their ranke. (of the socialists,) still, those who are decidedly favor- able to the existing order of things, as they have abundantly manifested at the polls, compose the great body of the people, and, therefore, greatly outnumber these factionists, and being generally possessed of property, have always the prepon- derance of influenee on their side. The next point which almost exclusively en- grosses the attention of the socialist journals here and in Europe, is the present government of France. Those journals seem to have singled out the President, Louis Napoleon, and the members of the National Assembly, as the objects of their continual execrations; and when in want of mate- rials for articles, they seem to have always an in- exhaustible topic at hand, in incessantly vilifying them. They proclaim them as tyrannical, charge them with imbecility, treachery, and inaptitude, and impute motives tothem which neither circum- stances nor the uniform tenor of their conduct tend to confirm. They deal such heavy blows of un- just censure and unmerited reproach, in order to render the government contemptible in the eyes of the nation, and thereby to be better able to carry their own plans and purposes into effect. In forming a correct opinion, however, of the merits of a government, it is absolutely necessary to take into consideration the circumstances in which it has been placed, aud the obstacics it had to contend with. We must recollect that the con- stituent members of France, elected by the unani- mova voice of the nation, are but men, and, as such, liable to err; and we should like to know where is the government, even the best regulated, which has not frequently involved itself in embarrrssments in consequence of some error and mismanagement, or other? It is also necessary to consider that the pre- sent administration of France has as yet been only in the act of the transition from an old to an en- tirely new system of government; and that to ac- complith such mighty changes through the whole frame of society, it is not only necessary to con- cede to one party, but to restrain their violence and control another. In launching, therefore, into the dark and unknown sea of innovation, how easily may not the bark of the constitution be sometimes drifted from her path, and cast upon hidden sand benke, in steering her course to the only havea which will ofler her a secure and permanent asy- lum, We must further reflect upon the distressiag condition ef France in relation to other nations. rounded on all sides by monarchies, ‘adly hostile to her form of government, h strive to obstruct her progress by every “ible impediment. Besides, Iso to cous tend with a mere obstinete a tal opposition from factionists of every hue wichin herown boun- danes, who are continually bent upon her ultiraate destruct Taking all these cireamstances into consideration, and the pesition in which she stands present, it must be candidly admitted that France bas struggled menfully for her existence aga re- & jie, aud that some honor and praise are due to er government, even with their errors.

News frem Europe now-a-days excites mo more tmterest than intelligence from New Orleans. Empertant from Washington—Formation of President Fillmore’s Cabinet. We are, at length, enabled to lay before the pub- He the names of the gentlemen whom Mr. Fillmore dhas called around him as constitutional advisers. ‘Their names are:— Hon. Daniel Webster, of Massachusetts, Secretary of Biate, in place of John M. Clayton. Hen. Thomas Corwin, of Ohio, Secretary of the Treas- ‘wry, in place of W. M. Meredith. Hon. James A. Pearee, of Maryland, Seeretary of the Interior, in place ot T. Ewing. Hon. Edmund Bates, of Missouri, Seeretary of War, &m place of George W. Crawford. Hen, Wm. A. Graham, of North Carolina, Secretary @f the Navy, in place ef Wm. Ballard Preston. Hos. J.J. Crittenden, of Kentucky, Attorney Gene- awl, in place of Reverdy Johnson. Hon. W. K. Hall, of New York, Post Master General, Sm place of J. Collamer. These gentlemen were confirmed yesterday by fhe Senate, in executive session, and will enter wpors their duties immediately on the the Galphin clique. On the whole, good cabinet, infinitely superior to the ‘The new administration of Mr. Fillmore may nov be eonsidered under way. Now that Mr. Fillmore has selected his cabinet, there will be a good deal of anxiety to know what policy he will recommend in the present condition ef the eountry, especially in reference to the great question ef the day—that of slavery in connection with the new territories. We are pleased to see that Mr. Webster fills the chair of Secretary of State. In the present crisis, he is the best man that eould be selected to fill that office. All par- ties have covfidence in him ; and he has endeared himself to the moderate and sensible people of every section of the country by the moderate, con- siliatory, and patriotic policy which he advocated during the present session of Congress, in connec- ‘tien with the question of slavery. We are positive that the honor of the country is safe in his hagds, and that he will not, as his predecessor did, use the influence of his position for the furtherance of any political action tending to his own aggrandize- ment. We learn that the only difficulty which existed in the way of his taking that exalted posi- tion has been removed by his friends, and that fhere is every probability of his retaining the Se- eretaryship during Mr. Fillmore’s term of office. In consequence of the telegraphic wires being met in good working order last night, our report of the proceedings of Congress yesterday, is rather slim. Feat Decision x tux Case ov Da. Wanster.— ‘War intelligence from Boston is very interesting. ‘Yn snother part of to-day’s paper will be found a fell account of the report of the Committee of Pardons in Dr. Webster's case, and the address of «the Governor. The committee, having weighed and deliberated upon the matter, were unanimously of opinion that they could not, consistently with their duty, reecmmend a commutation of the sen- tence of the condeanned, and he has, accordingly, been sentenced to be executed on the thirtieth of gext month. The awful suspense, therefore, is at ‘fan end; and the unfortunate homicide must pay the penalty he incurred by tranegressing the law. We eincerely sympathise with the Governor and Council of Massachusetts in the sad and melan- @boly duty which they had to perform in this case. ‘We are perfectly satisfied that if the slightest doubt existed in their minds as to the degree of the rime committed by Dr. Webster, or that if they | thought the circumstaaces offered by Dr. Webster | and his friends in mitigation of punishment, were | sufficient to justify them in reeommending a com- | gwuts tion, they would have been happy in recom- | Men.\ing imprisonment in the State prison instead | Of devth.
