over the influence, the hopes, and the pretensions of the
majority, M. Louis Napoleon Bonaparte thinks to
triumph over the rights, the dignity, and the sovereignty

the nation! In a word, M. Louis Napoleon Bonaparte
may impose all things on the fallen majority. Let him
impose on it the Republic, universal suffrage, liberty,
the destruction of misery, and- the reconciliation of
classes; let him impose on it all that it has sacrificed,
all that it has.rejected, all that it has disdained, all that
makes Governments beloved, and revolutions detested !"
