POLITICAL REFLECTIONS.

reovz. the Jour:cal des Detats.)

There is one thing which ha's always a good
augur in politics, and this is the return of men's
minds tOWardS Simple and just ideas. Men only
go astray for want of. understanding each other,
and there is nothing 'easier than to understand
each other, ,when*We possess good faith,, and
when We have a tranquil spirit. All the world
knowS the expetithent of Christopher Columbus,
demonstrating the possibility of keeping 'an egg
on it's end ; what is wanting to make- its happy
depends on the solution of a problem, perhaps
equally easy, and for this solution it iskerely ne-
cessary to enquire.
It is now 25 .years since we 'talked of ancient
Republics; of which we had unhappily studied.the
hi-story much more inttenSety than 'Ave had. done
our own, and apon,which we had uselesslyttnder-
taken to model our's. At the end of this long
period there comes a keen observ:ing publiCiSt,
who is !veil convinced that we have deceived our-
selves, and.who proves it to us :—" Democracy
is impossible with you," he says, " even on ac-
count of the very prineiplei upon which you
to 'establish it. The ancients had Democracies,'
but their civiliiation did not resemble yours,' and
they. were not so stupid as to found a system Of
Government on a false basis, on absolute equality
for example, which can as little exist in societies
of men as in nature. Greeks and' Romans
had slaves, and for this reason the title of Citizen
did not go for nothing among them." Who would
have thought that truths so clear had the'merit of
novelty ?

The party of Bnonaparte has seriously aectiseilt
the 'Bourbon faMily Of having contemplated the
restoration of feudal rights. A writer who should•
occupy himself with tlfiS ridiculottS question, agi-.
tated by,the most barefaced impudence, answers.
to it always en passant, with air axiom which eN-
perience has. never denied, .7 Fendality can only
.be 6tablislied by the army, among a people who
hate an artny.". In fact, the abuse of religious
power is theocracy ; the abuse•of popular. powet
is anarchy ; 'the libuse of monarchical powei is:
despotism ; and the abuse of • military power is
feudality._ No. person can doubt it, acid this pro-
position, more evident than day, is almost-61
pue-
'rile If any person - could dreaM of
-fendality, it could lIPE be the King, since the army,
unhappily, did not belong to him. The wish, the
hope, and the means of feudality, resided always,
in a powerful class, which wished to be so al-
ways, but which had ceased fora long time, to
make a common cause with the country. This
problem is not quite so difficult to resulye as that
of ,Christopher Columbus.
It is now known in the most positiie manner,
that Bminaparte was occupied with the partition-
•hig of Franc,: into Fiefs bl.fore the expedition to.
Moscow. , This distant enterprise, which held Out
the hope to 'him of new means of. sartsfying the
cupidity of his creatures, hysharing imnietise con-
quests among them,,suspt.nnl.ed the execution of
his. project, wit bout Making hint lbrget it. Coop.-
ed up within the ancient limits ..of France, he
would have accomplished it,- or rather he couitt
not have helped accomplishing it, in order to fur-.
Risli food to that insatiable' and restleSS at‘ibitiori
which he had himself,excited in others, and which:.
would become to him an object of suspicion _Ana
terror, _

Men olllettets, and juriscOnsults worthy of con-
fidence, loid already been consulted as to the
means of organizing a feudal regide, founded 011
a new distribution of property ; and this sxtraor-
dinary project had nothing embarrassing in its exe-
cution for the' irresistible power of la despot SOU,
was so well served. lie had been hcard frequently
to repeat, for sometime, that at the end of revo-
lutions the right of property belonged to the
sword ; and what is very singular, but vet v
cer-
tain, is, that lie frequently thought' on that
total or partial confiscation of the acquirers of
national domains, which never could have succeed-
ed in any hands but his. It is certain that with
them he would have commenced the spoliation for
which •be was prepared; and which was evidently
his only means of preservation. All must remem_
ber the'report Which was spread in 1811 and 1812,
'of a classification of citizens into different tribes,
by denominations, fortunes, and social rights, oil
the Model of the most despotic governments of the
world. They were already designated' by their
names, the noNes, the learned., the citizens, the
workmen (manwis), the-peasants, 8:a.
'lbis report was too generally accredited among
the people, and too feebly denied by 'the Authori-.
tics, to entitle us to doubt the true object of that
political machine and moral statistics which were
then the mysterious subjects of the labours of Ad-
ministration. The ,Governmentintended for us,
and under which we should liave now been living,
, aceordinK to B„rma-
if events bad not derided otherwise, would there-.
''for; have' been coniposed
parte', plan, of chic ill$tllO6PIIS of some barbarous,
nations borrowed from the rudest times, aud, the
'earliest of their civilization. Such is the 'inert y
which wal rglerVgd. to 115 i;01 t!lts Titan who wos
