WAR NEWS.

COLLAPSE OF THE FRENCH EMPIRE
AND THE BONAPARTE DYNASTY.

The French Empire, supposed to be the
first military power in the world, has been
crumpled up in a few weeks. Inexorable as
fate, the German armies have advanced, and
won victory after victory by sheer hard fight-
ing, till at last there is no longer an army in
France nor an Emperor to lead one. It was
not exactly the conclusion we had expected.
We thought to have seen Napoleon a fugitive
in England, instead of a prisoner of war in
the hands of the Prussians, but the Emperor
has really adopted the most dignified course
in surrendering himself. "How are the
mighty fallen r we naturally exclaim when
we hear of the French Emperor as a prisoner
of war. France, proud and haughty France,
is figuratively and literally smitten to the
ground, by the barbarian nation that she
affected so much to despise. Nothing like
this has happened to Europe since the Goths
overran the Roman empire. Such utter and
complete defeat was never suffered by a great
nation in so short a time. But the case of
the Emperor is even worse than that of the
country. France will yet recover from her
present reverses, but the Bonaparte dynasty
is overthrown for ever. The son for whom
Napoleon has wasted the Jives of so many
thousand brave men will be even a more
hopeless an unhonoured exile than the father
was in his youth. The carnage is now doubt-
less ended. It would be mere waste of life
for Paris to hold out now, and we shall expect
soon to hear of the unconditional surrender
of the capital and the conclusion of peace.
