All our latest news from Europe tends to encourage the belief that France is on the eve of a crisis, and that Napoleonism really is in danger. The Emperor is pleased to inform us that the policy of the government is sufti- ciently clear to prevent equivocal interpreta- tion, and that elections will continue as before to perform the task of “reconciling strong power with sincerely liberal institutions.” This is very well; but it leaves it doubtful whether the liberal institutions are likely to be found compatible with the continuance of the one man power. It is not to be denied that the second elections, the results of which are now known to us, have somewhat modified the severity of the situation. The second elections bave, on the whole, been in favor of the moderate rather than of the extreme meu. [t cannot be said, however, that the men who have come in victorious on this second test of ihe* sentiment of France make Napoleon's position more secure than it seemed when the first elections were alone known tous. The liberals had counted on some ninety members in the new Chambers. {[t now” appears that the liberals will not exceed eighty, The imperial- ist journal, Paya, admits seventy-nine. Ona test division the government will thus be able to count on a majority of one hundred and twelve. In the Chambers, therefore, the triumph of the opposition is not quite so great as it was believed it would be. But the mi- nority, as we have explained to our readers on more than one occasion already, will be greatly stronger than it has been under the empire, and in public estima- tion the majority which the government can still count upon in the Chambers is more than counterbalanced by the enormous losses which the government has sustained in the Electorate. The empire began with « majority of seven millions of votes; it has now barely eight hun- dred thousand sore than the opposition; and when the government machinery for collecting and secaring votes is taken into account the eight hundred thousand may be taken at a discount. \ In the new Chambers such names as Thiers, Favre, Garnier Pages, Pellatan, Picard, Gam- betta, Raspail and Ferry will be found; and it is difficult to see how «uch men as M. Rouber, Marshal Niel, Clement Duvernois and some others can, overcome their flerce, scathing criticisms, or play off their sarcasm and their ridicule. The debates in the Chambers are certain to be more lively than ever, and we lay safely take it for granted that in spite of prosecutions the debates will be echoed in the lively criticisms of the press.

Andrew Johnson's Ideas of Genoral Grant and His Administration. The despatch from Washington, which we published yesterday, giving the matured ideas and judgment of ex-President Johnson on the character of General Grant and the prospects of his administration, is making a great sensa- tion, It hag been apparent for a long time past that Mr, Johnson had something on his mind concerning General Grant which would some day come out; and now that ft is out we are comforted by the thought that, while General Grant will survive, Mr. Johnsou expe- riences a great relief. He has certainly spoken his mind very. freely, and whatever may be said of his bad temper and bad taste, there are thousands of men throughout the country who will chuckle over his denunciations of the President as the very exposition that was wanted to wake up the administration and arouse the people, and to revive the drooping democracy, and declare that this pointed and pungent conversation, in short, is s crown of glory to-Andy Johnson. He says he knows Grant thoroughly, has studied him, and is satisfied that he is the greatest farce that was ever thrust upon a people; that the little fellow has nothing in him—not a single idea--no policy and no con- ception of the political situation; that he don’t understand the philosophy of a single question and is completely lost fn trying to understand his position; that he is wendacious, cunning and treacherous ; that this little fellow Grant isa mere upstart and accident of the war; that he is a subject more for pity than con- tempt; that physically, mentally and morally he is a nonentity ; thet his soul could revolve # thousand years in a hazelnut shell without knocking against its walls; that he has no policy, no standard, no creed, no faith; that he receives presents and appoints the givers to his Cabinet; that such a mau degrades the Presidential office ; that he is a mere incident of the war; that his fittest place is that of assistant at a cross-roads horse race 3 that he is a liar and a coward (Heaven save the mark !), and that under his administration we are tend- ing to despotism or anarchy, and to repudia- tion or a moneyed aristocracy of bondholders ; and so on to the end of the chapter. Now what is the cause of this ferocious phi- lippic from Mr. Johnson? His provocation has been great, First, he appointed General Grant, under the Tenure of Ottice law, Secre- tary of War, ad interim, in the place of Stanton. ‘The object was to head off Stanton and Congress in Southern reconstruction, and to use Grant for the purpose. But when brought to the piach, with the refusal of the Senate to concur in the suspeasion of Stanton, Grant, a law-abiding man, delivered his office back to Stanton. The correspondence between Grant and Johnson on this subject reveals two things very clearly—first, that Johnson ex- pected Grant to back him up, and to head off Congress; and, secondly, that Grant all the time was operating to support Congress and to head off Johnson. ‘Uhe quiet acquiescence of Grant in the action of the Senate reinstating Stanton made a case of hostility between Johnson and Grant as decisive and remorse- less as that between Hannibal and Rome. From that day, under Johnson’s charges of treachery and falsehood, Grant, as far as pos- sible, suspended all relations with Johnson, and more than once the General absented him- self on a journey to avoid some occasion sug- gesting an official or soctal necessity for coming into coniact with the President, This state of war was continued down to General Grant's inauguration, in which Mr. Johnson took no part; and notwithstanding General Grant's motto, ‘Let us have peace,” there is no peace yet between him and Johnson. And has not Johnson cause enough for the wrath of Hanni- bai? For is it not probable that had Grant played into the hands of Johnson in that Stanton affair something might have turned up that would have made Johnson the democratic ; candidate in 1868, with Grant nowhere? Hence all these outpourings of the vials of wrath of Johnson against Grant go for nothing. They are but the impotent ravings of a shallow political schemer, defeated by the very instra- ment he had chosen to draw hia chestnuts from the fire. Let them langh who win. General Grant can afford to langh at the folly of Andrew Johnson, and yet he cannot afford to rest upou his laurels. His great achievements in the war have made hita President ; but upon his achievements as a practical statesman will depend the public judgment upon his adminis- tration; and he must do something positive, practical and popular as President, or his ad- ministration will be a failure. KM 29, cee The eee days of contentment and submission seem to be all but’ ended, Since 1789, the date of the great revoluiion which overturned France and ghook the world, we have had three revolutions in France—one in 1814, one in 1880 and another in 1848— each of them fatal to the dynasty of the hour. Napoleon has done well for France, forhim- self and for his family since power came into his hands. The iuterval since 1848 has been long and prosperous; but in spite of all success it is hard to resist the conviction that France is tired of its present form of govern- ment, and that a change is imminent. Napo- leon, in fact, seems to be at the end of his tether. During his own lifetime he may keep a hold of the reins; but he is a bold man who will say, looking at all the facts of the pre- sent, that, in the event of his death, his son will be heartily and generally accepted by the French people as their chief, Napoleon, we have reason to believe, lays much stress on the fact that Paris is stronger for central action and resistance than it ever was at any former period. He atill clings to the idea that Paris is France. He forgets that the very machinery he has employed to make Paris a stronghold and a great centre of power has increased the means of communication all over the country, has brought all French- men nearer to each other, has given unity to the thoughts, aspirations and actions of the entire people, and has multiplied the thinking and active centres, some*of which are nearly as powerful and quite as dangerous as Paris. Time was when he who was master of Paris was necessarily master of France; but that time is no more. A general and simultaneous rising is now possible; and it is this which, in a military point of view, renders the improve- ments of Paris comparatively valueless. The loud and emphatic expression of popular sentiment in France would be less alarming, and, of course, less deserving of attention, if such expression of popular sentiment were confined to Frauce alone. But it is not so. The people have made themselves virtually masters of the situation in Germany, in Aus- tria, Iu Spain, and they are now hopefully fighting for the mastery in Great Britain. Italy, according to Inte accounts, is in serious trouble, and the party of action are with difi- eulty kept down. Napoleon's true position eannot be understood unless he is looked upon as the bulwark of monarchy in Europe. But for him France would be a republic. But for him Spain would give up her search fora king, would cease to prate about a regency and woald find in Serrano an acceptable president. But for him Garibaldi might be greater than Victor Emanuel and Mazzini greater than the Pope. Napoleon dead or dethroned, what would become of the Eeu- menical Council and what of the thrones of Kurope? We have no desire that his end should come before the 8th of December, nor until Bismarck has done a little more for Ger- many and Beust a little more for Austria... it is something for Napoleon to know that, as the Emperor of france, his life is precious, not to himself alone, not to his fumily alone, not to France alone, but to Europe and the world, The Great Western hoppors. the settlers, sippi_ river, the British settlements of the Red river ot the North, producing a famine among those people, From all that we can learn, however, the grasshoppers east of the Rocky Mountains are in size than those of the Great Basin, and all that vast isolated Asiatic section of this Conti- nent lying between the Rocky Mountains, east, and the great Sierra Nevada chain, which looks down upon California, west. Idaho, « large portion of the State of Oregon, all of the State of Nevada and a large section ofthe Territory of New Mexico. ‘The great grasshopper, so called, of this region, if not the same as the locust of Africa and Asia, is very near akin to him. the same, and the American insect is hardly excelled in his vorgcity by his Arabian con- genes, As to the reproduction of this Western plague of grasshoppers, an equivalent term for locust in the Bible, we learn that they come out of the ground in the spring, hardly visible at first, grow rapidly in the sun, and begin to eat their way through the country 4% soon as they begin to crawl; that they marc: on in # straight course, devouring as they go, until they have attained their full growth, smoke on @ great distance, and then, settling down upon some inviting locality, they deposit their eggs on the ground, and, again taking wing, dis- appear, and doubtless soon die. But they have sown the seed for a new crop. The eggs they have cast upon the ground lie there unbarmed by.the snows and frosts of the winter, to be hatched with the returning warmth and vege- tation of spring. Hence a district where these insects have appeared this year may escape next year; bat trom year to year no district within their range of operations is secure. The Mormons of Utah have several times narrowly escaped a famine from these grasa- hoppers. Once, at Salt Lake City, in the be- ginning of their settlement, the Saints were saved from these grasshoppers by flocks ‘of little gulls from the lake, the birds coming over from the lake to feed upon the insects from day to day till they were consumed. The Saints have this incident upon record as a miracnions preservation, like that of the chil- dren of Israel in the wilderness when the quails were sent for their sustenance, As the areas of cultivation are extended over these Western States and Territories these swarms of grasshoppers will be apt to increase, But for the annual autumnal fires on the great plains east of the Rocky Mountains these de- structive insects would probably ere this have extended their visitations to the country this side the Mississippi. As it is, they may yet give the casting vote upon the question of the removal of the Mormons, with their institution of polygamy, from Utah.

No vault can be made that is im- pregnable, no lock can be contrived by human ingenuity that will be superior to human inge- nuity, and no system of watching can at last make property safe against the patience and acuteness of men who give good faculties to the left-handed science of stealing. If tron and bolts and bars can make anything safe the Ocean Bank vaults should have been safe ; but as it has been pretty well determined that these things are no security against a syste. matic attempt, how is it there was nothing else? Where was the watchman who should have been on duty to give the alarm and thus save the property? Other banks should take notice of this mistake. Grant, says Andy, is a good man for a ercss-roads.

If the Baltimore journal were to scan the list of names of army officers retired or dismissed from service by the late reduction in the army—all brave and worthy men—and ob- serve the names of those retained—equally brave and worthy—he would doubjless find ma, terial for analyzation calculated to fortify bis apprehensions about the ulterior designs of the secret man in Washington, But in this analytical examination it should be borne in mind that there is a vast difference botween the American people and the people of France. The former have been trained to the enjoy- ment of liberty and independence as their birthright, even as their fathera were before them ; while the French people have had their periods of civil liberty administered in homao- pathic doses, and at long intervals at that. General Grant, or any other General or Presi- dent, may sift the army as ho pleases, may retire or dismiss obnoxious officers, break up regiments and consolidate others; but there is one thing neither he, nor any one else, nor all the military men in the nation put together, can accomplish, and that-is compel the Ameri- can people to surrender a republican for aay other form of governifent. under the sua, TkReLaAND ON THE Cuvrou “Buta.

Irish support for Mr. Gladstone’s Chureh bill, Tuk Reasons Way Boru Resieneo.-—A North Carolina paper gives the following as among the reasons why Mr. Borie resigned his place as Secretary of the Navy :—First, because he allowed himself to be throwa on his beam ends in a ballroom while dancing with a lady on the occasion of the naval aehool celebration at Annapolis; and, secondly, be- cause he became wretchedly seasick in « trifling scrub sea, and was ready & throw up his commission, as fhe did everything else, in the preseuce of a ship’s crow of laughing mid- dies. He couldn’t stand the jibes of these rasping young sea larks, and slruck bis dag without firing a shot, except a few richochet spurts in the face of Old Neptuae. Goodby, Old Shiver wy Timbers ! Av Ovsrer War.—Nothing is more peace- * able than the oyster—who stays at howe in his native land as long as men will let bim and is content with what the tide fetches; but he is a great cause of war in others? and a fine topic for a phosphoric philosopher to rab up fame on would be the ‘“Bivalvular Reason Why.” Why is it that the oyster fishermen are so tremendously puguacious and always in atumult about their rights? Long Island on the one Nand, and Connecticut on the other, are in arms just now, and bloody things are threatened. Temrerance.—Some terrible temperance fel- lows are flying up on top of all the gates ia Western New York and -crowing fearful” threats against good liquor — thinking, no doubt, that bad liquor is its owh remedy. They are going to organize a party at Sara- toga on Congress water and qghampagno July. They have no bowels, these fellows; for a julep—nor even a cobbler. This is be! cause the art of cobbler and julep making i ia lost. Barkeepers now can only serve out lager.
