NAPOLEON III.
It is generally assert oil with respect to the i
policy of the present Jhnpcror of the French, 1
that ho "walks in the shoos of his uncle." The
similitude, however, will not hear the test of
a close examination. We claim for this amphibious
representative of the Napoleonic spc- '
cies, the merit of being distinguished with all !
the characteri*iio* of personality and nriginnli- ;
ty. if the idea of turning the energies ol
France to the sea. is not quite ne-.v in itself! 1
the degree of cS ticr.cy she ha- attained as a
great tuaralitiiO power, is without parallel and
justifies the epithet of amphibious, which
we have applied to him. This difference,
ncvcrthcles-, i- not congenial, and might be j
imputed to circumstances unfavorable to the ,
ancient and favorable to the modern Napoleon.
We will thcrcdbie admit this as a mere contingency
which Xapoh on 111.only knv.v how to put
to account. It is in his international as well
a- in his home policy that we will find him to
be one who lift-, a way of his own. No doubt,
tic is a Coutimuuor of the Napoleonic ideas,
il always oke. w rot* and at. led lo that effect.
Hut be iianuies the weaj?ou v\ it'ti which lie has
thus armed himself in his own manner, and
though he retained the sword as a good n:.c. he
altered the mode of ffneing with it.
Ol this we saw a fust proof after the Crimean i
war. when iie knew how to sheath his sword
after the first thni>t. But it is in the late war ,
in Lombardy that he realty proved his inge- i
nuify. It i> openly admitted now. that in i
spite of lbs vict ^ies. Napoleon found himself
on the Mincio in a somewhat dangerous predicament,
posted as he wa> between a rev. lotion
and a coalition; the alternative between
Loth being :: certainty, and their concomitance
a great probability. It is liardly possible to
deny that the Tory party in England dreamed,
at ?;it> time, of lighting their battle on the
Continent by means of the two great German armies
combined against Louis Napoleon. Such
a war would have certainly warded off" any '
blow that may be apprehended from the excru- j
tion of plans of invasion which are admitted to j
be haunting the brains of the Emperor of the !
r- l- l*..<Vsftiiic.f. !v fi.r the noli v of the
The present frenzy of England finds him well!
prepared and possessed, whilst the proverbial
' coolness of his neighbor frets and fumes. The
traditional rashness of the French policy skulks
j into a circumspection not unlike that of the
j i.'unctatnr. These are ways and means which
j he could not find in the repertory of his uncle,
| lie ought not ;o be refused the merit thereof.
Now, we learn that the Etnperor Napoleon,
with a readiness which we bad foreseen, and
1 which doubly serves his interests in polities
and finance, issues a decree for reducing the
i armaments of the armv and navy to* peace
1 f'.ot;ng. Thanks to the general excitement,
j that measure which was sure to take plucc any
) how. as it is obvious that, after a campaign and
i a treat}* of peace, a reduction of forces is a
! matter of course, confers on its author the
j eredit of an opportune and conciliatory step for
i the preservation "f the Anglo French alliance.
! Had the English Parliament been less clamo1
rous, what is called the French disarmament
j would have passed unheeded,
i That the fact of this disarmament is inter
ptvtod by rotuc as a proof of the absence of
hostile designs agnint England, is equally true; j
! I.ut one might think as well that Napoleon has
i <ii?\i*n iiimseli too meek and docile to warrant
j for the genuineness of those feelings. If lie
i were innocent he would be offended, and would ,
have spoken aceordinglj*, but as his only fear
! is to be discovered betimes, he submits to the j
'necessity of dissembling, instead of vindica-!
i tiny !iis character in a bold stnfcmcut of facts j
i which would have put in the hands of Eng- i
: land the choice of either doing away with the :
i alliance entirely or standing by it confident- j
ly. Otherwise, would Napoleon, who is sworn j
j to belie the propliecv of Victor Hugo, and to j
scratch out from his name the epithet of "/> j
! j- 'if," with which he was branded at the be!
ginning of his Imperial career, would the au'
daeiotis hero of lloulogue and Strasbourg, the
; resetted prisoner of 11am. the successful per;
petrator of the eonj> d'ihit have declined the
' challenge, if lie had not an after-thought, a j
favorite scheme of his, for the execution of J
which lie intends to secure, likcau accomplish- j

LETTER FROM NEW YORK.
; [Corrt*ponilehce < / the Richmond Enquirer.] i
New Vokk, Aug. ICth, ISoO.
That portion of the press most inimical to j
' !ov. Wise and his political prospects, have con-1
tinned to harp upon his letter and his defence. I
in all the changes and phases of personal
abuse. This biftcriie-s only shows the strength'
of the Clovernor before the people. They declaim
against hint, and declare that he has destroyed
himself. Was lie ever otherwise looked
upon by them, than as a man whose prospects
they would ruin if they could? Has any
political course, however able, fearless, honest
and patriotic, lie lias pursued, ever met their
approbation? Was it in the power of man, or
even of an angel of perfection, to do anything,
however meritorious, in political faith, to extort
their praise? Not at all; and they were
but too happy to sicze upon the hrief contents
of a in irate letter, purloined from the hands of I
the person to whom it was addressed, anil so
changed by incorrect punctuation, as to make
it convey a different meaning for that intended,
and give it to the public, accompanied by an
amount of personal rancor and abuse seldom
witnessed, in the most unscrupulous annals of
journalism.
This too, when the letter, duly corrected and
impartially read, contains nothing in it but
what any honorable man might write in frankness
amicontinence t-> another, and which.when
stolen and published, however distorted from
its simple and frank expressions of opinion,
yet contains nothing that the strictest rule- of
honor should condemn. There is a tribunal
above and beyond all the adder-like vituperation
<>t political enemies, both in and out of
the press, to whom the Governor can appeal
with confidence, and that is, the people. They
never fail to perceive the marks of true honor
and patriotism in a public man, and to stand
bv liiin, and to defend him against the enven
otucd persecution of sellish and designing demagogues.
who seek to reach and control publie
otlieers by every species of fraud and imposition.
In order to reach Governor Wise more fully,
his enemies have attempted to show thai Donnelly
was an irresponsible, unknown and obscure
personage, without friends or social position
of any kind; hence the Governor's imprudence
in answering the enquiries of Mich an
individual, when made in good faith. In reply
to their slurs, and to their abu-e of Donnelly,
we cut ti?c following advertisement fr<>m the
"Journal of Commerce'' of the *lh of August;

I!. Allen, and other men. of good and well
known standing in New York, to appear as refen.es
for Mr. Donnelly's position and responsibility?
Was not <Sov. ^Vise justilied in considering
Mr. Donnelly worthy of liaving bis
enquiries answered in a conti-ientijl and brief
note, when made aware of bis references of
Moses Taylor, M. <>. Robert-, and others?
Would any other public man in tiic country
have passed over Mr. Donnelly's polite letter of
enquiries, made in confidence, backed by such
influential rift fences, without reply?
If Mr. Donnelly has acted treacherously or
the part of an unwitted simpleton, then he has
compromized Moses Taylor and the other high- !
ly respectable referees, who authorized him P>
use tin ir mums. The only two persons' nanus
used by Donnelly as referees, about w hose testim
iny in a political sense, any doubt might
ai i-e <11 the < iovi-rnor's mind, were those of the
Hon. Horace F. Clark and the Hon. John
McKeon, late C. S. District Attorney for the
Southern Dis'vict of New York. I lie latter
was dismissed by Mr. I'uchaum, because lie
took an active part in the Municipal election of
Mayor, in opposition to Fernando Wood, the
regular Democratic nominee. It is true McKeon
had bchl otliee in the Democratic ranks ncarlv
al! his life. We formed the opinion, an.I even
charged that his removal was caused by the influence
of Fernando Wood, towards whom the
world can furnish no bitterer opponent or a
more hostile personal enemy. He would slop
at nothing to injure Wood, should it be necessary
to sink every public man and personal
friend he lias in the world. t>> reach him. lie.
if anything at nil, in policy, w outwardly a
Douglas man,'nit unlc.-s the Douglasites pay
more than lie worth, you may expect to
hear of his coining out a fervid Black llcpuhlican.
If the puMie will connect his hatred of
Wood with the conspiracy t<? have the Governor's
letter purloined from Donnelly, and made
public at Albany, the rclleetinn will shed additional
light on the subject. McKeon w.aknown
to have condemned Gov. Wise, because
he said Fernando W ind was (.without any fault J
of the Governor) his friend. When thus expressing
himself, might not Donnelly, in
von tide twe, have shown hint the Governor's
letter? Might not the exasperated 1*. S.
District Attorney have jumped at the oppotunity
ol stabbing Wood under the fifth rib,
i luviigh. as he supposed, the vitals of Governor
Wise? Might lie not have said (and even invoked
tl i- soft shell influence of the Hon. Ho[
race F. I lark) to Domiellv, vou have it in vottr
I power to set the lenders of the Convention at |
j Albany right respecting the relations supposed
j to exist between ?V:>.>\-,i,d Wood. Co to the
i Convention in Albany and show this letter to
i Cassidy, Caggcr aud to Dean Richmond, and
! if necessary let them use it among their friends,
I and it will all be right.
In the meantime Donnelly goes to Albany.
The"New York conspirators, it niav be su'p
posed, made known the existence of such a letter
among their friends, and among correspondents
of the press, ami likely wrote to their i
free-soil friends in the Convention, how to en- j
trap Donnelly, and, above all things, and at |
every hazard to have a copy of the letter sent ;
xo uie "jsew torn neraiu urn puuiramun, as j
its appearance woukl kill ofl the hurilshctl or i
]>( inocriitH oi the State, with Dickin- j
; son. Wo'hI and AVise.
1 he assassination hv the conspirators, so j
; widely hailed as a trump hv Free Soil organs j
1 and Free Soil Democrats, has proved a failure.
The knife so secretly aimed at the vitals
j of an honorable and "patriotic party, and its
: honored champions, has glanced and recoiled
: upon themselves. The cup of hemlock, pre'
pared for others, they will sooner or later have
; to drink to its dregs. The gallows erected for
! Mordecai will have the body of Hainan suslanded
from its beam.
Let the Free Soil Democratic Junto of this ;
State go on, and pack their marketable delepates
to the Charleston Convention. We
tell them, that from this time forward, all
their movements will be closely scrutinized by
the argus-eyed, jealous and patriotic citizens of
the American Lnion. When their hound mvr|
midons knock for entrance at the Charleston i
i Convention, their credentials will he closely
examined, and every act nnd move they may
make will ho suspiciously watched by the viglj
lant eyes, not only of. the Convention, hut of
the whole country. Thcv will not he the re- :
j presentativcs of the people chosen directly oy
I their votes, hut the representatives of a "('enj
trnl State Regency, bound in virtue of their
I appointment to execute their wishes irrespec-j
tive of the will of the people.
We repeat, that neither wouhl Gov. Wise or :
! any other public man have felt at liberty to '
have disregarded Donnelly's enquiries, made in ,
confidence, when backed bv such references as ,
Moses Taylor, and other prominent merchants of
New York. And, although he had no claim to j
the political regaid of John McKeon, or of the i
Hon. Horace T. Clark, yet he could not suppose
for a moment that they would lend their
names to a man, as referees, unless he was j
worthy of their respect and confidence. Ifi
they misled the public and Gov. Wise, as to
Donnelly's character and position, they arc to
blame and not the < iovcrnor.
By the late advices per steamer Yauderbilt
at this port, from Havre and Southampton, it
would seem that the Knglish Abolitionists had
had a sort of anniversary celebration of negro ,1
emancipation in the British West India Islands.
The eccentric Lord Brougham presided and
made a speech on the occasion, in which lie j
exhibited the increasing garrulity of age.? 1
I.ike most octogenarians lie delights to ti ll the <
young, of the present generation, how uierito- ;
rious and distinguished his personal services
had been during the early period of his life.-? i
Admitting that some of the measures advocated
by him were laudable and useful, such as 1:
law reforms, >Vc., yet, in many other things, his |'
views have been visionary and tinged with
gross bigotry. If no other evidence was given :
of the work of time on bis intellect, bis late :
speech at the Abolition meeting in London
would be a sufficient proof. 1
He cont'-nded that the interests of the British I
West Indies had Ik en benefitted by the email
CI|KiUOii m i, wiiwii ruit? |>u.-^n .
resident in those Inlands knows perfectly well !
that tliev arc going to decay for tin* want of i
labor. That the home government has been >
appealed to again, and again, for an increased i
supply of raptured Africans or other labor? :
And the hiatus has been attempted to be tilled '
by Cooliis from China, the transportation of i
which his Isrdship equally opposed with every ' 1
other form of black servitude. His lordship i
out ilcrods the "Tribune." lie makes the
number o( blacks emancipated by the acts of
1 $34 and 1*38 at $.10,0""!
Where his lordship could have obtained his
ligurcs from, the Lord only knows. Cur table
of the British West India population was com- i
piled from a recent edition of Mrt'ullock's geographical
dictionary, an English work, and
which ought to he good authority with his 1
lordship, and which table, wo beg leave to re- ! ;
produce, l<> show what is already well known, j ,
that Abolitionists have a total contempt fcr , j
figures and facts.

We have no hesitation in saying, andean'
prove what we say. t hat in no part of the Brit- j i
ish Empire, since the separation of the colonics, j .
now the United States, has it ever contained at j ,
the period of the emancipation ?>r since, within j
thirty-three and one-third per cent of thenum- j j

ilin TfUninn
To emancipate the -157,212 slaves, the l'riti-h 1.
people wore made to pay $100,000,000. This ' |
was ut the average cost of $21 lj jic-r head. If ;
we add, the enormous taxes imposed upon the 1 <
people of England, in the way of sugar duties i
in order to enable the negroes to raise sugars ]
at a higher price, than it could he supplied by 1
Cuba and brazil, it is not too much to say that i
the liberation of the blanks in the I'.ritish West !
Indies cost double the amount stated or about :
$122 per head; besides saddling the people
of England with a public debt for all time, of
,00ft. the annual interest ol which at j
three per cent., costs the people $.100,000, and ;
which must be paid by their future generations J
for all time.
His Lordship's sympathy is all of the blackskinned
hue. The toiiing, lamlle-s and over- '
taxed peasantry of Scotland; the oppressed!
of Ireland, the struggling Welch, amidst their
tenant-bondage, in the vullies of their mountains;
the toiling millions of over-worked men.
and women, and children, amid t the deathdealing
sinokc of their factories, or. in the writing
and health-destroying mcphitic air of tiieir
underground mineral shafts and galleries,
whose souls are taxed for the support of a corrupt
church, and their bodies sold in bondage
for the support of titled oppressors like bis
Lordship, have no pitv, no sympathy. Ye gods!
call ye this philanthropy, which can add taxes
of iunO.OOO per annum on the laborers ami i
children of whites, bound hand and foot, for
generation alter generation, to a spendthrift I
aristocracy, in order that a few black-skinned !
and lazy negroes can roll in idleness and de-;
baueherv, amidst the plantain, banana, ami '
pomegranate trees in the West Indies? And
is such an oppression of one's own race?the i
descendants, the companions of England's
greatest names, and of t 'aucassian decent and
of native-horn intellect?to be thus, forever, ;
crushed and down-trodden, that negroes maybe '
pampered iti worthless idleness amidst the natu- J
rul luxuries of tropical latitudesWill Heaven \
approve of such barbarity ? While black '

The first slaves imported into the Tinted j
States were brought over in a Dutch brig in j
lr.CO, which contained Tin, SS of whom were j
sent to Rhode Island. From that time t" 180s j
the whole ninnher introduce', only amounted !
to "75,Onn, from whom they have increased to I
their present ntnnher. It England was so j
highly philanthropic, why did she not buy tip ;
and liberate the slaves of her colonics before (
our Revolutionary war? At that period the i
slaves of America did not exceed those of ,Ja- !
niaea (311,000). which, at -V? I'? per head, would j
have cost, at that time, only $07,17'1,000. I
What is the humanity of American slavery ;
compared with that which existed in the British (
West Indies? We find that, by kind treat- i
ment, the blacks in the I'nitcd States have J
increased from 375,000, in lt>40, to about ,
4,000,o00, in 1S59. According to Mathew t'a- j |
rev. on the slave trade, the whole number of I ,
African slaves introduced into the British West . \
Indies amounted to 1,700,000. (>1 this num- j,
her we have seen that, at the period of email- j
eipntioti, in 1834. only 457,212 of that num- ;
her, including all tlieir descendants, remained i
tohc emancipated; showing that about 1,242,788 (
had actually disappeared.

The Ilicluuond (irays then entered in regn
military order, escorted by members of the
Tenth Kegimcnt. The whole company shortalter
took their seats amid the thundering
ii-ic of the band of the Seventh Kegimcnt.
If ever tables had occasion to "groan" under
e good tilings of this life, those of the Metroilitan
had good cause for dointr so. They
.-re je'-itivcly crowded with nil the varieties j
d delicacies of the summer season, when nare
is so pro]ilic of her hounties. The ,-olids
.re di>cus-ed in the most regular fashion,
d the military harged as fearlessly upon
e tempting dtdies that lay outspread as they
mid upon the eiienniy in tented Held. The
pid and continuous lire of champagne corks
owed that that vinous enemy was giving 1
iv to the '"bold soldier ooys" on all sides ol
e room?nor where the civilians a whit bend
the gray coated gentry in this interesting
ercisc.
Mayor Tiemann said they had nu t that eveng
to do honor to the llielunnmi (irays, and as ,
was expected that be should say something,
at evening, lie would begin with a regular
ist. lie, therefore, proposed three cheers

use enthusiasm, the whole company stand-1
garni cheering licai lily, and the hand playing '
lail i 'oliitnhin."
The next toast was "The ' Jovernor of the!

d Virginny."
Tlio tliin! regular !??.*ist was?The i inventor ,
the Slate- of New York, which was received
tli immense cheering. Music?'"Hail t? the

A letter dated Saratoga Springs, from (iov1101
Morgan, was then read, apologizing f.<r 1
- absence, and expressing every respect and '
risiderntion for the Richmond (iravs and tin- !
i/.en soldiers of New York; after which
.Mr. It. F. Maniere very suitably replied. j '
A letter of excuse was also read from lien. ; 1
Hreese. Commander of the Navy Yard, lie '
jrettcd the necessity which compelled his '
sence. and wished the gallant citizens hc.-.lth, 1

The fourth regular toast was "The Mayor of 1
c'nmond." This toast was so enthusiastically ' 1
eived tliat even tie- music couid not be ,

The fifth regular toast was. 'The Mayor of

ree times three ami the warmest enthusiasm, i :
Mayor Ticmar.n replied that he, with the j
imuoti Ouneil of Yew York, was glad to j

a happy strain, and concluded his remarks, '
rompanied by three times three cheers for the i
ipmlilaco.
Colonel Peyton, of Virginia. returned thank*, i
: hoped that they would exeuse him, for he
is unprepared to address them. He alluded !
st to the excitement that prevailed sometime 1
0 in New York consequent on the removal \
the remains of President Monroe, in the :
urse of which he paid trie highest eompli-'
nts to the Seventh Regiment. On arriving

mines* of tiie people of New York, lie next i
uded t'i the power and strength of the I'nion. j
;d expressed a hope that it would ever Hour
i in beauty and in strength. He concluded i
proposing a toast to the effect?
New York and Virginia?May the ties of
,triotism and affection, cemented by the
isid of those who secured this noble heritage,
v.-r he weakened l.r real er iiinen'nnrv r,.K>.
>ns of interest.
The eighth toast was !ia|?r?ily responded to i
: Captain Klliott. of The Grays. lie* spoke
p'.inplv of the manner in which his comrades ,
[ re receive 1 in New York. They had met
ith a band of brothers on whom they could
ly in case of anything occurring which might
11 thetn into action. He was proud to say
at there was a hand of true men. who, in
>e of extremity, could rely on each other,
ithout considering political schemes or coription.
Now, politicians often cause issues
lien no issues existed; they kindled the fires
passion and prejudice, when neither passion
prejudice existed. < Cheers. > But no asrance
was needed to show that the Grays
ere not politicians, hut had come among i
cm to speak of the union of the States,
liirh was the common interest of the
nple of the United States, coupled with the
nry of a common ancestry. (Cheers.) And
e time would come when thousands of hands i
iuld find the hearts of this nation in indi-so-,
ble union. (Cheers.) But on leaving he would

should i aisc its htad and threaten the liberties of
this glorious Union. (Cheers.) There was one
other sentiment which stirred their blood and
moved their tears,nnd that was the memory of the
great man who hud left us. Let them remember,
that so lungas the memory of Washington, who
had given us liberty, and this vast extent of territory.
lived in their hearts, so long should they
remember this honored son. He then bade
them an atTectionate farewell, and offered the
following sentiment:?"The Union of all the
States for ever?the union of the sons and
daughters of all the States for life." And in conclusion
he invoked the Messing of (iod upon
all. t Loud and prolonged cheers followed the
captain's address.)
"The Annv" was responded to hy Captain
Diinmock in a very able manner. He remarked
that he had ceased to he a member of the
- - of the
regular army lor ycai.-, . .

would ever be ready to lay down tlieir lives
for their country. He then spoke of himself
as a native of the North, but be had been
twenty years at the South, and loved her people
with a manly love and gloried in her history.
(Applause.) He next spoke of the solemnity
attending the transfer of the ashes of
Monroe, and when he saw the respect paid to
them by the citizens of New York, he said the
I nion was safe, i Applause.) Hiving them all
sectional prejudices ami geographical differences,
they elaimcd to live under the same constitution
which their eominon lathers had established.
t Applause.) The gallant commander
proceeded at some length to urge on his
hearers the necessity of union, and concluded
amid thunders of applause.
The remaining toasts were drank ami re- |
.-ponded t<>, and tin riipnnv broke up . ! a
