The Reign Of Order. If Any Man Were Desi...
THE REIGN OF ORDER . If any man were desirous of the reputation of a prophet , French politics are most certainly the things which he would avoid for the exercise of lua powers of predication . In order to anticipate , with any reasonable probability of being right , we should have , as the basis of our calculations , stable elements , and a series of events moving forward in a regular progression towards some well-defined end . There aeevns to be little or nothing of all this in the French political world . For system there is substituted confusion—for order chaos—for natural development a sort of
volcanic action—for intellectual procedure , bayonets—for legislation , charges of lancersfor the voice of the Judge , the roar of artillery . It is not only the mere inversion of order—it is madness iu its worst paroxysms , —affecting every party and almost every class . In such a state of things where we are hardly able to discern what the present is , it ia next to impossible to foresee what the next moment will bring forth ; and therefore we say with extreme hesitation , that it seems to us more likely than not that the President will succeed in building up his power for the present .
That conclusion is all the more likel y to be correct , because it is against all our hopesadverse to all our sympathies . If , like the faithful of old , Tve could believe in a Providence visiting immediate wrath upon the heads of wrong-doers , we should expect that the forked lightning would descend , and annihilate the brutal scion of the family of one of the greatest scourges o f the w orld , whose blood-stained hand now holds the destinies of wretched
France I But , whatever Providence may have done in th o p a st , we expect no such direct retribution from it in the present . The facts of the world militate against such a belief . No doubt , in the long run , e vil works its own defeat , and good rises triumphant on its ruins ; but , in one generatien , wrong appears to triumph about as often as ri g ht , and Providence is generally on the side of the strongest battalions . No angel comes down now to smite with death in one night the whole host of the tyrant , but physical force strikes the balance from the hand of Justice , seizes her sword ,
and , dying it in the blood of the best ot humanity , cuts down intellect and enthrones despotism . In the long dark annals of political crime we do not know a more hideous offender than Louis Napoleon , and if . posterity accords him his deserts , it will class hi m with th e Cali & vjlas and the Wehos of history . His whole career since his accession to power has been o ne of treach e ry , deceit , and falsehood ; and now he has torn from his character the thin veil of disguise which covered it , and exposed all the baseness of his mind , in which a selfish ambition , m i ng led w i th a relen t less cruelt y rei gns undisturbed by contact with any of the virtues of man . Some may think such
expressions as these overcharged , but a calm review of his acts would justify the use of the strongest terms in the vocabulary . If society did not , as Shakespeare has it « plate sin with gold' and shield crime behind rank and power , all would stamp that man as one of the vilest of our race ; and when men coine t o regard c r ime as crim e , whether perpetrated by a pauper or » prince—to look upon murder as mu r der whether committe d b y a ruffian with a halter round his neck , or a ruler , whose breast ia covered with stars and orders—then they will think the off-scourings of our Newgate Calendar rather disgraced , than elevated , wh e n p laced in the some category as the chosen ruler of the French .

Nei ther do Z % ' to the arrest of such wretched tricksters 1 Tiers-such calculating cutthroats a CiiANGARNTEH- or such Conservative Kepub ! leans as CaYAIGNAC . However despotically they were treated , they , by their own acts in the mam moulded their own fates bv giviu „ power to th e t yrant who seized them ; " but wo allude to the conduct of tbe troops of Lows in the of
Nai ^ leoA' streets Paris during ( ho last'few eventful days . What happeaedthcra makes most of the atrocities of modern history small aud insignificant by contrast . If the despots of Austria did shoot Blum at Vienna they regarded Blum as a criminal . If the ' military satraps of Austria and Russia did spill tho richest blood of Hungary , they stood before men with arms in their hands , bravely fighting for their rights , and they staked their lives on the issue . If Cavaignac did slaughter the insurrectionists of June lie marched
against men who fought from behind barricades and dealt death as well as received it If Ciiaxgarsier did offer to invade England he meant to come as a foe , expecting to n » ht and prepared to brave tbe issue of a struggle ! But bad and odious as all these acts and inW lions were—deeply as civilised men hold them in abhorrence—they are venial sins—nay , almost virtues—compared with the deeds of Louis Napoleon and his aBenssins .
Let this be marked down as fit only for the darkest page of the history of criminality . On the gay Boulevards of Paris the footways ' were thronged with people , gczing with eager curiosity at a novel scene . They had heard of an insurrection , but they saw no insurgentsth e y had been told of ' barricades , but as far as the eye could reach there was no obstruction behind which the discontented could shelter themselves . The street was lined by the army , the g lory of' la belle France . The ' walls were placarded with proclamations , that ordershould be protected , and all sexes and all ages paraded
curiously before the martial array , aud the balconies of the windows were crowded with spectators . Suddenly a shot was fired—or , perhaps , we should say . it is pretended a shot was fired , from one of the houses—the word of command was given—the troops faced about—and from both sides of the roadway poured a continuous fire . Against the ' crowded balconies with their admiring groups—against the thronged windows with their wondering faces—against the defenceless crowd upon the footpaths , the defenders of France rained their bulleta thick as hail ; against some of the doomed houses cannon roared
destruction , and in the street , where a moment before the laugh and jest were sounding—in the houses w h ere * respectables' were congregated to see order preserved—men and women lay wounded , dying , and dead . How many we cannot tell—we shall never know , The Correspondents of tho English press were at the prefecture , having their communications dictated to them b y the emp loyes of th o President , Some of them , like the ' Times' reporter , too willing to veil the enormity , others who would have told so much , of the truth as they could get at , were sensible that their letters would not be suffered
to pass if they did . All we know is the fact , that against a peaceable gathering of men and women bullets were directed , and that as bullets w ill , whether they strike the innocent or the guilty , they did " their fatal worlc . Comment on this would bo nsriess . It is as impossible to blacken such atrocity as to add a bright ray to the diamond . "VVe verily believe that the most brutal generals and legions of Nicholas of Russia would have shrank appalled from such guilt . It needed a Napoleon on the seat of power , aud iu the streets African troops and generals , who had learnt in the barbarian warfare at the desert to forget humanity , and to be ready to murder at the word of command . Tliei'Q
can be little doubt that this enormity was intended to provoke a conflict on tho part of the people—so that those who had the sp irit to fi g ht mi ght be slaughtered by the overwhelming ar my , and the f ortun e s o f th e Presided might be floated on a sea of blood to the haven of Imperial power , If there were to day as there -will be by a «< j bye , a solidarity of peoples , tho whole wonu would rise in arms to avenge such a cowardly , barbarous , treacherous act of wanton carnage ; b ut the solida r ity of peoples , a lth o ug h it is growing into life , is yet little more than a of
n a me , and the world rolls on with its load Wood and crime . The latest intelli gence says that' order reigns in Paris . ' That the President , as if to consecrate his brutality by 3 peace offering to the God of Battles , or rather of Massacres , has restored the Church ot MGenevieve to the purposes of religion . T hai ! the Commercialists begin lo trade aj ? ' That the funds are rising , and that though * ' few of the friends of anarchy' endeavour w struggle in some of the departments , the moss they can hope to do is to maintain » , -1 sruerilla warfare . The armv has as a s'gni '
cant hint to the people voted in the wain 1 W the ^ promiso-breaking homicide . The P ^ are to vote now . The mockery of ' " election' without a press , under martial Jai > > with death decreed for all who endeavour t paralyse the action of the Governmen t , is * be the climax of this fearful scene . Amid sue dangers , if there b e the will , the cour age ^ probably be wanting in France to ostrac . ^ the Traitor , and beside , no matter what u ^ votes are , they are to be counted , ana , '" mockery' verified' by his satellites t °
