The Excise Commissioners held a meeting yes- terday afternoon to grant licenses, bat no applica- tions were made for them, and consequently no busi- ness came before the meeting. They have now held fourteen out of the fifty meetings which the law requires them to hold this year, and, to use their own phruse, they “intend to keep up the fire daily” till the whole number is exhausted. The trial of Feliz Sanchez," Cutun negro, tor the murder of Harman Carnon, his father-in-law, in Sullivan strect, on the 5th of January, was com- menced yesterday before Judge Russell in the Generel Sessioi The Court sat till midnight to take evidence, and adjourned till this (Saturday) morning, when the case will be summed up and givento the jury.

The grent question attending the present war in Italy, and the one most discussed in this coun- try snd in Europe, is whether it will extend be- youd the beundaries of the Italian peninsula, and involve the whole of Europe ina general reyo- lutionary war of nationalities aud dynasties.

Beyond tis he does not seem to eater. tain the agpirations of the old Fmpire, These communications are worthy of attention: not only for the sources from which they come, but also for the ideas which they contain. They prove that the Europe of to-day is a more practi- cal, and a more practicable Europe, than the one of fifty years ago. She wants no more coalitions of the dynasties, such as that which drove the ‘irst Napoleon from power; and Louis Napoleon sees very clearly that he cannot carry out the unbending aims of his uncle. On all sides he dypvasties bave come to recognive th: growing power of the people and the new exigencies it creates, and to admit the mperious necessity of conforming — terrt torial arravgements to the requirements of satisfied nationalities, This conviction va the part of the European sovereigns renders feasible the pacific solution, not oaly of the questions of new territorial arrangements in Europe, bat itso of those in America, conforming them to the popular necessities and the popular desires. No one of them to-day is disposed to take arms to | prevent Louis Napoleon trom restoring @ popu- j ar government in Italy, any more timau they | were in 1822 to prevent the French Bourbons, | shrough the Dao d’Angouleme, from driving popular government out cf Spain. For these reasons they do not wish to oppose Louis Napoleon so far as to drive him to despe- on; and baving little sympathy with the selfish and treacherous House of Austria, they are willlag to see it shorn of its appanage in some degree, by the creation of a first class power in Italy, They will no doubt also consent to a revision and remodelling of the treaties of 1815, so far as the exclusion of the Napoleonic dynasty from France is concerned; for they weil know thet if they undertake to impose upon Louis Napoleon the fate they dealt out to his urcle, they will force him to embrace the canse of revolution, and such a step would overturn every throne and deluge with blood every nation in Europe, There is reason, too, tor their counting upon moderation in the aims of the French Emperor. He has the experieace of the firet Empire before him, and that will teach bim wisdom. There is grouad to believe. the: efore, that diplomatic efforts to prevent the war from spreading beyond Italy will be made, with a fair prospect of success. Supposing that the great Powers concerned are williag to waive in eome degree, and in favor of the interests of peuce, the strong interpretation of their respect- ive previous declarations, there will ouly re main the obstacle of the noisy desires of some of the smaller German Powers to side with Aus- tria, But these—such as Hanover and Bavaria— are the more noisy in proportion as they are least prepared. They are like our own speech- making politicians, who are the most clamorous in proportion as there is less responsibility rest- ing upon them. Before men burthened with the responsibility ot the peace of Europe they will be of very little account. Two Epochs of War—Progress of Public Opinion in the Intervat. The commencement of the present war finds Europe ina very different position from that which it occupied previous to the campaigns of the French Revolution. Then, public opinion was confined to a number of distinct centres, each \imited in its operation. There was no Supreme Court of Appeal, like that of the conjoint mind of the two hemispheres, which absorbs into its generalizations national as well as local senti- ment, and erects for itself a standard of judgment from which there is n0 resort, The forty-four years of peace which have elapsed ence the wars of the Republic and of the Empire have done more towards the formation of ‘ois immense corrective and guiding iufluence ‘bun the twenty spent in sanguinary propagand- ixm. The latter undoubtedly did eervice ia the overtbrow of slavish ideas and prejudices, which notbing but force could bave overturned; but in ite results generally it has had less influence on human progress than it has received credit for. It is to science and literature that is in reality to be awarded the honor of baving worked out the great changes which have been effected in the condition and prospects of mankind within the last half century. Whilst the benefits won by the sword have been lost or wrrested by the ambition and faithlessness of those who bad constituted themselves the cham- pions of buman liberties, the victories achieved by @ more enlightened and disinterested intelli- gence remain to attest the superiority of a peace- ful over @ forced progress, Thus, steam naviga- tion, railways and telegraphs are unceasingly scattering the elements of improvement aud civi- lization; while the press, rendered uoiversally potent through their instrumentality, is fast es. tablishing between the minds of the nations a community of sentiment and opinion which will do more to prevent the frequent recurrence of war than all the skill that diplomacy can bring to ite aid. One of the direct causes that led to the first French Revolution was the effort made by the aristocratic classes to crush out the spirit of free inquiry which had been revived by the taste that had been generated for Englich literature and English modes of thought. When the Empire supplanted republi- can institutions, similar efforts were made to tramme) the press in France, whilt throushout the Continent generally « rigorous censorship excluded the influence of coastiiutional opinions These restrictions, however, were soon destined to be new'ralized by a power stronger than that of royal decrees, The introduction of railways and of the electric telegraph created facilities for the interchange of thonght which laid the basis of a public opinion that no censorship could fetter or no partial iaterruption cf the functions of the press could disturb. Thua, althoagh it might suit a government to decree ceriain re- strictions against the newspapera within its reach, the progress of things did not suffer from it, The press in other couniries criticised freely the evenis respecting which it was desired to en- | force rilence, and no precantions that the most jealous vigilance could take could prevent its comments from reaching those interested.

We ourselves can furnish a parallel to thelr io efficiency in this respect. The Southeruers, for instance, will not tolerate the exisvenoe amongst them of journals adverse to the slaweholding (uy terest, They nevertheless cannot suooed ta ok: cluding the Northern abolition papers, rabid sud upscrupulous as they are. The expediency of the cure does not enable them to override 4 privcip!e which the increased intelligence of the age has established. The difference between the two epoohs which have suggested this comparison is, then, tin- mensely in favor of the present generation. To sum it vp in a few words, it may be said that to 1793 public o pinion consisted of the dictates of a few despots, slavishly reecvoed by the arist cratic classes; whilst in 1859 it embraces the conclusions of three bundred millions of prop'e, Americans as well as Europeans, We realize in thie fact the foresight of the observation made by Lucien Bonaparte in 1800. “We are staudiug,” he said, “amid the graves of old, and besid: ibe cradle of pew institutions,” The Almighty Nigger, Some three weeks ayo the varfous reliziov societies, representing numerons, wealtny and powerful Christian sects throughout the country assembled in fali force in the metropolis for th: purpose of consulting together as to the prop» methods to be adopted for the spreading of di- vine grace, sccording to their peculiar views of the article, and to raise funds wherewith to carry on the war against the devil and all bis work: The saints were all in battle array; all with their armor on; all appoiuted for the coutuusuc> of the great conflict, which will never be ended 20 long as the world bolds together, They caw here to make a grand foray on Wall street, ani they made it. Tbey came for money with whiy to grease the wheels of their complicated ma chine, which they have invented for the sprea of the Gospel in those lands where, as tir poet tells, every prospect pleases aor only man is vile. They came to distribute goos books among the heathen ia our country, wher the views are lers agreeuble, and the popula tion no less benighted. They came to regular our religious and@ social affairs-—to reform 1 and straighten us ont generally, at our own ex pense, Without doubt they approximated ai the objects they bad in view to a greater or le-+ extent, avd weot away to serve their cause els where, and to return next year with the iz tion of having another tur at this wicked, per verse sud corrupt metropolis, Everybody wa: glad to welcome the comtog, and no less bapp to speed the parting of the anniversariaus. A little of them goes 4 Jong way, and fills up many columns of the papers. Bat while we have the annua! conventicles o the worshippers of the bevighted beathea, or 0° the down-trodden aud enslaved woman who can not alwaye have her own way avout everything; or of the poor sailor, who is obliged to lay ou: on the foreyard in the dirtiest weather, without 80 much as penny tract to comfort him; while we bave all these and more, up town in the eburches, and chapels, and halls, aud even in the Opera house itself, und a grand assemblage in Wall street every day of devotees of the al mighty dollar (before which idol, it is charged we all abase ourselves), we have no: hed ag yet apy nent wusoering of a new and important, and wealthy sect—a body which includes the men who sit in the highest places io the councils of the ua tiov; wen who control society, and commerce, and trade of a}l kinds; mea who wake the iaws apd the money wherewith to pay the expenses of sustaining them; wea who pray without cvasing, and who think thems+lves as secure of a scat smoug the lands at the last day as the Emperor Napoleon is of flogging Francis Joseph if he ever catches bim. We allude to the worshippers of the Almighty Nigger. The Almighty Nigger! The beginning, the middle and the end of everything with the jour. oalist, the politician acd the parson, ia the Uuited States. To the youvg politician, a stumbling block; to the old, fovlishuess: the Juggeraaut which crusbes in its career every:biog like ao attempt to Improve the political, or social, or religious condition of the “white clement in oar population :” the most abstruse, and therefure the most favorite theme for note book of Cockacy tourist: the standing dish at Weatmiaster : the bonne bouché for the delicate feasts of reason at Exeter Hall. No wonder the worshippers of the Almighty Nigger are the most devoted that ever bowed to shrine, or cross, or symbol! A smell at a bit of his wool is like the sight of the green turban of the Prophet to the eyes of the faithful, or a re- verent touch of the true cross for the devout Catholic, The priests who officiate at the shrine of the Almighty Nigger number between one and two bundred thousand. Inthe South, they worship bim because he planta their tobacco, picks their cotton, raises their rice, makes their sugar, and above all helps them to become the richest, the bappicst, and the most fashionably in- dolent people on the face of the earth. In the Almighty Nigger, according to the views of the politicaos in the South, are concentrated the rights of the South. The South has po rights worth speaking of, they say, except the right to worship the Almishty Nigger, In the North aud West, the Almighty Nigger is worthipped as representing so wich political capital. Without him the underground railway stock would uot be worth a cent; it would be worse even than Erie. Where would Seward be witbout the Almighty Nigger? Where Weed, with his five thousand dollars in free repudlican Almighty Nigger wool? Where Greeley, with the thoussod dolar draft in his breeches pocket? or what else could he find to preach about in Kooras? Where, in point of fact, would the whole republican party be without the Al- mighty Nigger? Ile is their hops, their stay, their eternal salvation, their sheet anchor Without him they would go to the bottom with the velocity of a sixty-four pounder. Now, these worshippers ot the Almighty Nig- ger manage to control the political n‘fairs of the country. They are coming together next year to make arrangements for the election of a Chicf Magisirate of their sect, a Head Worshipper or High Priest of the Almighty Nigger, who will be ex-officio President of the United States. The only question to be settied about the victor is, whether ho is a sufficiently ardent professor of the faith. Ifhe believes wita suflicient fervor in the Almighty Nigger, accord- ing to the views of the church, Nortd or South, este Cuse may be, tie Abnighty Dollar will ' 1859, Come out to cleot bim, and the apoila of victory wilt be duly divided amon tbe priesta, Wo: the Alrmghty Nigger on their side, they get the Almighty Dotlar, With both they are omnipo- tent, Not that the four millions of electors who wil) vere for this hesd worshipper belivve fo the Al- mighty Nigger, On the contrary, most of them éwmies bit as a bere and @ humbog.

Then, and not it then, wi his adberents drop him with surprising celerity. At present, the Almighty Nigeor is the ruling power, socially, politically aud retigiously, in this broad band, The Fortilon of Germany to the War, We give in another columo a very interesting account of the origin avd history of the Germanio Coatederation, with résumé of the progress and prement etate of the war feeliog throughout Ger many. The German States, ever since the fede sol compact was made in 1815, have been some- what Jike the Tintian States, divided with jew louries and conflicting interests, Austria and Prussia, the two greatest States of the Confede wiios, both in & military and commercial sense have Constuadly been straggling for supromacy Prussia, throngh ber influence in the Babtic ports, succeeded in estabbening the Zollverein, ov customs Unio, Which gave her great tmportanc ja that most vital elowent of national greatuess omuneice; aod her power ia the Confederation & proportionably great, Ia the clamor about the War Which is how agitating all Germany, i: ts most probable that Prucsia will control publi opinion, and Prusida is sirongly in favor of new uabty. The smali States, whicb are the most noisy now, as they ever are, may be influenced by Aus vis inte getting up @ war ery to snit her inte- ests, but it is Praksia which will decide the joestion of war or pence for Europe, In all previous German wars the means t arry them on came from Eogiand; and Prussia hould ebhe consert to commence — hostilitie: 10ow, would have to look to Engtao ‘or fivaceint ad, which she would no be vel likely to get for the purpore of iavoly ng Europe in a general Test £0 inimical te ibe detires and interests of Great Britain, No help could come from Austria, for all ber re- sources, 2d wore, are Deeded lor her awn expen In this event, then, it is quite probable sha!

It is » dangerous game to play. ‘Tue War w Ita.y—Enousu Nevraauiry.— The bittervers which has latterly pervaded the articles of the Loudon Zimes, and che ministerial orgun, the Herald, in reference to the course pur- sued by Louis Napolen, shows tbat there is 4 feeling at work among the aristocratic classes ix Evglaod which may eventually result iu mi+ chief. To what this feeling is owing, whether to instinctive apprehension or to the intrigues of tbe court clique, it is dificult to say, There can be Lo mistake, however, as to its exi.tence, for inthe fico of their professions of a desire to muiplain a sinet peniraliry, we find the minis teria) aud otber journals using language of so irriating avd provocative a character that it the Muniteur were ovly to reply to it ia @ siiuilar epirt, the peace hetercen the two countries would not be worth a montb’s parchase, Tt would evem as if an effort were being made torevive omongst the English the traditions hostility against the ambition of Frauce, which bas been made snch a profitable use of for dy- nastic avd party purposes. Tbe fear of losing Belgium as a fumily appanage, aud of find- ing certain other promising avenues to Co burg ambition closed, may be te main apring of this movement. It is other wise difficnlt to conceive how the fatercats of Eng}end can be compromised by the objects of the present war. Every demonstration made in favor of constitutions! liberty on the continent, it is to be snppord, would tend to strengthen her position, Admitting, however, that Louis Napoleon is animated by motives of purely per- oval ambition in entering upon this war, it is certain that no subsequent act of his can again narrow down the principles that be has proclaim ed, or do away altogether with the results to which they roust lead. Despot though be be, the future condition of bis exiatence as a ruler is progress, and he can so more stop ehort in the course that he has marked ont for bimsel/ thanhe ean realize those visionary dreams of universal dominjoa which his enemies are sv fond of ascribing to him. The great bulk of the English peoplo feel and appreciate these truths, The jouruals that really represent their sentiments hold a language in regurd to the French Emperor which ehows that whatever distrust they may entertain as to hix motives, they place @ proper estimate on the benefits tbat are likely to result from his placing himself at the head of the present movement What watters it to them that Louis Nupoleon should extend his influence or even his sway io Italy, if the effect be to improve the condition 0! its enslaved aod miserable populations, and to develope its industriel and commercial resources! Every advance made in these respects by the Continentel nations is a source of additional wealth to England, and ehe will thorefore be slow to balance these solid advantages against the thadowy benefits resulting from politica) Combinations gotten up merely in the interest of particular families and dynastics, When we witnoss these efforts to revive amongst the masees In England the hatred of ! France which prevailed in former years, we oaa~ not but wonder ut the small exteut to which their authors bave profited by the experteace of the leet balf century, They forget that the commercial olasss are no longer what they were in the reign of George the Third, ood tha. the two great aisiooratic parties which formerly mouopotized the goverving pewer are sapldly being eubordinated to theic infu- ence, It is probably partly with a view of becking their growing ascendavey that it attempted fo direct the sympathies of Kogland in favor of Austrian despotism, It is too late, however, for any party or clique to pursve this retrograde course, The English peo- ple understand their interests too well to be again Guped by the bugbears which were em ployed to scare them into the enormous sacrifices that they made to crush out the first Napoleon. 4s a liberty-loving people they cwa feel no great »duriration tor the results of the arrangements of 1616, which due waivly to their efforts, aad they will not, therefore, feel themselves called upon to renew those eacrifices to maintaia them.
