Fraternity, as the symbol of social government, has
latterly been aderision, and a scoff, and a hissing to
the Conservative gentlemen of England, who swear by
the policy of Price MarsrEßNlcEr. Equality and
Liberty may pass current, but Fraternity I—it is a
bye- word, at the very utterance of which the retro-
grade party shoot out their tongues in mockery. And
yet the principle of fraternity is a principle most
strongly inculcated by the Christian religion : it is the
practical development of the ethics nurtured into life
at Nazareth : it is the fulfilment of the creed which has
been gradually developing its riches and its glory
during eighteen successive centuries. It is this
which, in defiance of the sarcasms of the lovers
of absolutism, is perceptibly conducting the
nations of the earth to a better sense of
their common fellowship and a firmer compact of
tranquillity. The gibes of the disappointed men who
see their idols crumbling away before them—the
obligarety of Vienna and the Royal bourgeoisie of
Neuilly—the sneers of the Tory journalism which has
degenerated into the panegyrist of the exiled states-
men of Brompton, may be cast forth abundantly
against the onward movement of the people • but in
spite of every obstacle that movement will con-
tinue uninterruptedly, for it is as irresistible in its
vigour as it has recently been astounding in its de•
rnonstration.

Within the last fortnight the streets and public edi-
fices of this metropolis have been crowded by ♦isitors of
a very foreign and picturesque appearance. Those
virho were unacquainted with the costume,—the
blue military surtout, the dapper schako, the
sword-bells, and the scarlet shoulder-knots,
—learnt from the newspapers that these vi-
sitors were part of a very numerous detach-
ment of the National Guards of Paris, and that the
object of their arrival in London was to cultivate
sentiments of goodwill and friendship between
filesaselves and the English populace. The journey
had a nobler object than the evanescent gratification
derivable from a pleasure excursion. The tradesmen
of Paris had crossed the channel to mingle with the
inhabitants of London ; and at the same time that
they made a pilgrimage of curiosity to structures
consecrated by the associations of history and an-
tiquity, they were solicitous to extend the hand of
good-fellowship to their brother men of the United
Kingdoms. With this generous intention they came,
and with a kindred feeling of affection they were re-
ceived. For several days past they have participated
with the English in all the amusements which are
afforded Fly this capital and its suburbs. They have
jostled amongst us on the pavements of the Strand
and Piccadilly ; they have clambered to the roof,
of our omnibuses, and feasted in the coffee-
roora of our hotels; they have crowded the
decks of our river steam-boats, and seated
themselves in the boxes of our theatres. In all
directions their gay attire and bearded faces
have been encountered; in the architectural pomps of
the Abbey at Westminster; in the open space of
Trafalgar •square, gazing up at the half-finished
