WE this morning paid a visit to M. Liedtz, the minister of the interior, in his hotel at the “Palais de la Nation.” It is rather remarkable that neither the actual eruption of the revolution nor its subsequent influence, has been sufficient to draw forth any individual of leading genius, to give a complexion to the policy of the new state. The actors who have played the most prominent _rôle_ during the last ten years have been a few of the ancient Catholic noblesse, whose titles gave éclat to the movement, but who have long since withdrawn into retirement, or ceased to take a lead in the administration--and the body of lawyers whose professional aptitude to promote or profit by any change, has enabled them to step over the heads of their less adroit, but not less qualified associates, and to appropriate to themselves the “loaves and fishes” of office. Lastly, there were “the masses” whose impetuosity achieved the revolution, the “patrioterie” who form the tools of every revolution to be worked for the benefit of their more clear sighted superiors. But the daring spirits of 1830 have all disappeared; the present times do not require such fiery agents; the violence which effects a revolution, must be the first thing to be got rid of by those who would perpetuate it, and who speedily learn to exchange the exciting demand of “_delenda est Carthago_,” for the milder supplication of “_panem et Circenses_.” In this way the Masaniello of the revolution, M. de Potter, having been given to comprehend that his services had been rendered, and his presence no longer desirable, has long since withdrawn himself to ponder over, and, it is even added, _to regret_ the events of 1830; but certainly to lament, in strong terms, his disappointment at their practical results.
