This 1s peculiarly the era of revo'utions and po- iitieal upheavings. The very elements themselves seem to have been started into an abnormal state of agitation and disquictude by the events which, ful- lowing so raplly on each other of late, have con- vaised the nattons and peoples of the earth, And yet weave only in the throcs of those events which have produced such sudden and wonderful changes, and witch still teem with consequences and results that no human eye can foresee or humen mind fore. tell. In Europe we have seca the suc rv of St. Peter deprived of that temporal power which eleven cen- turies had bequeaihed to him as @ divine right— that power wre: from him by a king against whom but a few years ago he hurled, but in vain, the anathomas of the Cuurch, Anathema or Bene- Gicite, tt was all the same, however. Lhe era of progress ts not to be stayed or checked now, aud the Pope finds himscif in his old age lke another Priam, standing alone amid the ruins of the power which he alone suryives to mourn over. In France we have seen within the past few months the “Man of Destiny” go forth from the Tuileries, panopiled in war, surrounded by the cilvairy of tho empire, lu the full assurance of reaping a rich harvest of famo and glory, and bequeathing a dynasty to his son which Mg great oncle first establisked. A fow short weeks thereafter saw his pulssance over- thrown, his armies defeated, captured and slain, aud bimsell, the Casar who so long “kept the world In awe,’ a captive tn the hands of the enemy he Went forth to conquer. But the end is not yet. Tho Tepublc looms up over the emyire, ana the men who are sivorn to support it aro made of such stuf that no concussion of arms will afright and po misfor- tune or temporary defeats will turu them from the gubrious and sauetimoulous expression, end, thougu the rep ;caluted him with a sty, encour- aging Wink, he hever lor a moment relaxed the rigidity of his factal mugeles.

O'BRIEN'S RESURRECTION. In last Tuesday's issue we published @ graphic and faithful account of the “great poltiical funeral,” with atl incidents of note connected therewith; how Ledwith ov: ea O'Brien in the race for the Mayoraity; low the latter rebelied, but uitim- ately sui imoed, and again, after drawing a long breath, how O'Brien ros® like a Phoenix from its ashes, prepares to renew the contest with his adver- saries on a new field.
