This glo!r is ever present in th6r memory. They attach to it tlittr happir.e.s it is. as it were, their .xistence; to lose their name, would be to them to lose their life. The author of the Memoir thence concludes, that the union is impossible; but he think, the all-power ful influence of France over the destinies of 11 0 1. 14nd may be able to procure much greater atlt.in- Liget for the two nation's.
