Nor, be it observed, is this last test to which the Republic has been subjected, 1 mean the sudden removal of the execu- tive head, a test of a trifling character. Suppose Louis Napo- leon of France should as suddenly fall, — would not his fall 13 shake the nation, and make the whole of continental Europe, too, tremble to its farthest bounds ? Or, take away the em- peror Nicholas, the autocrat of Russia, — and would the affairs of that gigantic empire, or of the neighboring dynasties, move on a...s before, unchecked and undisturbed ? Might not the death of Nicholas be the presage of far more serious commo- tions than those which attended the death of his predecessor, Alexander, in 1825? How trivial an event, how slight a cause, might raise in Europe a hurricane of revolution, that would rock the hoary thrones of despotism more terribly than all the revolutions of 1S4S.
