THE FRENCH REPUBLiC.

We have received the Paris journals of yesterday.

THE WEATHER.—SUN OFFICE, NOVEMBER 19.
THERMOMETER, IN THE SHADE.
45—highest since noon yesterday.
42—lowest this morning and during the night.
52—this day, at noon.
BAROMETER, 29.10; a fall of nearly an inch since yesterday.
WD7I) S.W. - fine sunshiny weather. It has been raining all
day yesterday, and up to three o'clock this morning.

The new levy of 40;00 men- , although ostensibly
for the protection of the German frontier, is really
intended for aggressive operations in conjunction with
Austria against the Protestant cantons of Switzer-
land, where the Sonderbund faction is to be restored
to power by foreign bayonets. " The time is come,"
said the Jesuit-inspired Univers," when Protestautism
must be extirpated at the point of the sword."
The National has the following on this increase in
the army :
It is thus that we are about to return within the
limits of ordinary expenditure. New credits will be de-
manded of the Assembly, and the promise of economy
held out by the budget will be mado to share the usual
tate of promises of this kind; this last one did not hold
even a week. M. Bonaparte, like Louis Philippe, keeps
us down to that ruinous state of things called an armed
peace, than which we can conceive nothing worse either
in a political or financial point of view. The accumu-
lated deficiencies of eighteen years are then to bear wit-
ness that a war would have cost us less."

We must again, although at the risk of appearing
tedious, recall the public attention to the great fact,
that the income-tax in its present most unjust, un-
equal, and oppressive form, will expire next year, and
that an opportunity will therefore be afforded of ob-
taining a thorough revision of our fiscal and financial
system, such as may not again occur for many years,
if the golden moment be permitted to elapse without
due advantage being taken thereof. Every true re-
former should prepare himself for the coming struggle.
He should labour zealously and indefatigably in his
own district, so asto organize the forces and exhibit the
true strength of his brother reformers, to produce that
pressure from without,which is so valuable with aMinis-,
try known to be composed of "squeezable materials.''
Let each man believe that the result of the struggle
will depend on his own individual exertions, that the
eyes of his fellow-citizens are upon him, that his fu-
ture honour and reputation depends on the manner in
which he shall discharge the sacred duty now de-
volving upon him, and there can be no doubt or diffi •
culty as to the result. What is most to be dreaded is
that heedless apathy, that careless indifference, which
induces many persons—indeed, we may say, the great
majority of the people—to hold back in matters of
universal importance. There is but too much truth
in the adage which declares that " what's every
body's business is done by nobody." Matters of the
most vital importance to the welfare and prosperity
of the nation, the comfort and happiness of the popu •
lation, are thus hastily slurred over or treated with
contemptuous disregard, from the want of leaders and
the unwillingness of persons to assume the prominent
position which must be taken by the more active and
enlightened. Some decline the post of honour
through modesty, from not deeming themselves quali-
fied for the station. 'We would remind such persons
that modesty, generally a virtue, may sometimes de-
generate into a vice, and that in no possible way could
the quality be more injurious to the best interests of
the individual and of the society of which he is a
member, than when it induces him to sanction in-
justice by tacit acquiescence, rather than by opposing
a bold and vigorous resistance to prove himself
worthy of the rights and privileges of a freeman.
There are various points on which the voice of pub-
lic opinion should be clearly and unequivocally ex-
pressed before the re• assembling of Parliament. First,
in importance, as we have already repeatedly stated
is the duration of the proposed tax, the period for
which it may be renewed in its modified form. This
is strictly constitutional. The supplies are only voted
from year to year, and this salutary and wholesome
precaution has proved to be one of the best guarantees,
the most effectual safeguards for the preservation of
the liberties of the subject. It affords an opportunity
for exposing every abuse, for claiming redress for every
grievance. But under the present system it only applies
to the allocation of the funds. The revenue is col-
lected, the money is obtained without the authority
of Parliament, and if a pressing emergency arose an
unscrupulous person, backed by military power,
might easily seize the sums stored up in the exche-
quer, waiting the disposition of Parliament. Nothing
could, in fact, more effectually strengthen the hands
of the popular branch of the Legislature, and consoli-
date the democratic power, than an annual sanction
being required for the disposal of the revenue. But,
as we have already shown, this is not practicable in
cases of indirect taxation. It is only when the
impost is directly levied, where there are
no parties intervening between the tax payer
and the tax collector, that it is possible;
it could not be attempted On the case of Customs or
Excise duties, nor would it be equitable in cases of
voluntary imposts, such as many of the assessed
taxes, which to a certain extent are optional with the
party. It is therefore solely in the property and in-
come-tax that this most valuable and important prin-
ciple can be introduced.
The next point requiring attention, and modifica-
tion, is the practical injustice occasioned by the
equal taxation of every description of income no
__., ...., .....-.., cu, ur
(whether it be steady and permanent, or precarious
and fluctuating—that exempts from the tax the
owner of 4,9501. in the Three per Cents., while it sub-
jects the clerk on a salary of 1501. a year in a Go-
vernment office, who has large deductions
to submit to in the way of super-
annuation fund, widow's fund, and a number of
other funds, which none but those having many
painful experiences of the amount Could recapitu-
late, to the burden, and also the industrious trades-
man, the hardworking professional man, who have to
lay by provisions for themselves and families
when old age or ill-health may disqualify them from
further exertion, or death deprive their helpless
families of fathers and protectors. The taxes on in-
dustry are the most iniquitous and unpopular that can
be devised, while those on accumulated and realized
property, in proportion to its capitalized value, are
the most equitable and least objectionable. The first
living financier, JOHN MACGREGOR, the faithful and
efficient Member for Glasgow, long since proposed
a settlement of the question on a statesmanlike and
satisfactory basis, viz., that the amount required by
the national exigencies should be collected " by an as-
sessment in the pound upon the value of all
realized property—the rents and profits of all lands,
tenements, houses, constructions, funds, stocks and
shares, including factories, warehouses, docks, ship-
yards, railways, canals, , public funds, Bank of
England stock, East India and South Sea stock, and
the stock and shares of all companies whose stocks
and shares are sold in the market." From this there
should be no deductions, and the amount realized to
the revenue would be greater than that obtained
under the present inquisitorial and iniquitous system.

The Minister of War has addressed the following
circular to the intendants of the military divi-
sions :

D,). lot. Preference

Do. Clydesdale June...
Chester and Holyhead ..

" Monsieur rlntendant,—On accepting the post of
Minister of War I made known by my order of the day
of the 25th of October last, that the army would be the
object of my warmest solicitude; it is sufficient for me
to say, that as far as regards its comfort I rely on the
active co-operation of the military administration to
second me in that important part of my mission.
To exclude no new system the application of which
would be useful and opportune, but also to retain
those which have been proved by time and experience
is, in a few words, the objects which I propose to my-
self. Whatever may be the decisions come to on this
subject, the obligations of the military intendance are
clearly marked out. They demand a conscientious and
indefatigable solicitude for the maintenance of the rights
of the parties receiving, and a vigilant and enlightened
control as the indispensable safeguard of the public trea-
sury, and which is the more readily exercised as its in-
dependence is guaranteed by the law, and a calm but
firm surveillance to prevent abuses from whatever side it
may bo sought to introduce them. From the strict ac-
complishment of these duties depends the consideration
of the whole administration. I have its dignity too
much at heart, I know too well the utility of its action,
and the sacred interests which are connected with it, not
to be decided to act with as much rigour against any one
who shall fail in his duty, as I should feel pleasure in
recommending to the consideration of the Government
such functionaries and agents as may have acquired
claims to the gratitude of the country and of the army.
In the one as in the other case, your co-operation is ne-
cessary to me; and to render it more efficacious, my
authority will always support yours in the limit of law
and equity.—Receive," &c.

Notwithstanding the interferences of the Legis-
lature, London still continues to be contaminated by
the odious practice of intramural interment. The
parochial authorities of the capital seem indeed to be
determined to render the 13th and 14th Victoria, cap.
32, in more senses than one a Dead Letter. In
spite of the positive and explicit injunctions of the
law, in open defiance even of public decency, the
graveyards of the metropolis continue to be employed
as the receptacles of decaying mortality, although
long since crowded to very repletion. The crimi-
nality of such proceedings is too obvious to require any
demonstration ; and we are reduced at last to the
inquiry as to what penalties are incurred
by this shameless infraction of the rules laid
down by the enactment. Either the parties thus
offending egainst the law are liable to receive punish-
ment for their total and flagrant disregard of its in-
junctions, or the measure is altogether useless and
invalid. Either their acts are illegal, and as such
amenable to the magisterial authorities, or the Bill
passed through the Legislature last session is nothing
better than a wretched imposition. To one or other
of these conclusions we find ourselves perforce driven
under the circumstances. We are necessitated to
condemn either the Government for having placed
insufficient restrictions upon those who have hitherto
disgraced the metropolis by maintaining the custom
of intramural interment, or the latter for shamefully
placing themselves in a position antagonistic to that
required by the mandates of the Government.
Unfortunately the grievances we are complaining
of now-a-days are not discoverable in merely one or
two isolated and secluded localities—they thrust
themselves under general observation, and present
themselves to public notice even in our most crowded
thoroughfares. Within a gun-shot of ourselves these
from time to time hid away in the churchyards both of
St. Clement Danes and St. Mary-le-Strand. Cheek by
jowl with the living the dead are being piled up with
a ghastly indifference to law and life—the authorities
in both cases laughing to scorn the danger of infecting
the atmosphere and the perils incurred by disobeying
the injunctions of an Act of Parliament. So long as
these disgusting violations of the new enactment are
allowed to pass by with impunity we shall (surely
with reason) consider ourselves justified to regard the
General Board of Health as possessing little or no
power, or, at the very least, as being gifted with little
or no discernment. Scarcely a single quarter has
elapsed since the aspirants for sanitary improvement
throughout the country were felicitating the
metropolis upon a change calculated to pu-
rify the air respired by its inhabitants,
to correct a large amount of immorality by vin-
dicating the sanctity of death in the estimation of the
community, and perceptibly to diminish the sum of
the annual mortality in the capital by promoting a
greater degree of attention to the requirements of
public health and cleanliness. Scarcely a single
quarter, we say, has elapsed since this congratulation
was addressed to the citizens of the metropolis, and
already the new hopes inspired by the alteration
have been almost entirely dissipated. So far
from being in this respect the object of envy
among the provincial cities of the United King-
dom, London still remains entitled to their
pity and commiseration. While we were dreaming
of suburban cemeteries for the reception of the dead
the bodies of our departed fellow-citizens still con-
tinued to be crowded into the vsults of our city
churches and into the foetid soil of our city grave-
yards. The old and brutalising system is still found
to flourish in undisputed luxuriance in the very face
of a despised enactment and derided Legislature.

THE FAMILY OF THE LATE REV. MR. HOLLEST.
—The question has been frequently asked whether something
might not be done at Oxford or Cambridge, or perhaps by
one of the City companies, for the sons of the Rev. Mr.
Holiest, so barbarously murdered at Frimley Vicarage, if they-
are of age to be admitted into college or to receive a Bible
clerkship or exhibition.

Are these atrocious infractions of the enactment,
we ask, to be permitted ? Is the law to dwindle into
merely so much waste paper ? or are the rights both
of the living and the dead to be vindicated ? Upon
the response given to these questions the whole cause
of Sanitary Reform is in a great measure dependent.
Therefore it is that we feel especially interested in
watching the result of the proceedings to which we
are here directing attention. In the liberty granted
to the violators of the Metropolitan Interments Act
we recognize the assurance of a still increasing mor-
tality. Without some rigorous interposition we per-
ceive no prospect of a change for the better. Impu-
nity cannot fail to multiply such offences throughout
the metropolis in such a manner that the proceedings
of last session will be soon lost even to recollection.

ROYAL WESTMINSTER OPHTHALMIC HOSPITAL.--
On Saturday a young raan, aged twenty-four years, the
son of a highly-respectable person, and following the busi-
ness of a chemist and druggist, underwent the severe
and hazardous operation of removal of the lower limb,
immediately below the hip joint. Mr. Charles Guth-
rie (the operator) was assisted by Mr. Hancock, Sur-
geon to the Charing-cross Hospital; Mr. Holt, Surgeon to
the Westminster Hospital ; Mr. E. Canton, Lecturer on
Surgical Anatomy at the Charing-cross Hospital ; Dr. Beish,
It. N., Surgeon to the Greenwich Hospital ; Mr. Bartow,
Apothecary to the Westminster Hospital ; Professor Echlin,
Mr. Hogg, and Mr. Kidd. Amongst the large assemblage
of spectators who met to witness this interesting and novel
operation, we noticed the following eminent men :
Mr. Arnott, President of the Royal College of Surgeons;
Mr. Stanley, Surgeon to St. Bartholomew's Hospi-
tal ; Mr. Travers, Surgeon to the Queen and Prince
Albert ; Mr. Guthrie, Consulting Surgeon to the Ophthalmic
hospital ; Mr. Phillips, Surgeon to Westminster Hospital ;
Mr. Bransby Cooper, Surgeon to Guy's Hospital ; Mr. Tatum
and Mr. Henry Johnson, Surgeons to St. George's Hospital;
Mr. Avery, Surgeon to Charing-cross Hospital. The patient
was under the influence of chloroform during the operation,
and was perfectly unconscious of the whole procedure. We
learn that the patient is going on perfectly to the satisfac-
tion of Mr. Charles Guthrie.

Those who are at all watching the course pursued
by this journal towards the Bill lately passed through
both Houses of Parliament, will bear in mind that
we all along insisted upon its utter insufficiency as a
prevention of intramural interment. Our arguments
even went to demand some more stringent clauses
than any to b© found in the entire measure—clauses
rendering it an imperative duty upon the clergy to
close all intramural graveyards without distinction
from the very possibility of further interment. We
anticipated that without some such comprehensive
mandate the persons interested in the continuance
of the present execrable system would discover
loopholes through which to evade the power of the
cnactment. Events have, unhappily, since then
shown the reasonableness of those anticipations.
The I,ertizlacity with which the old and atrocious
custom has been followed out prows that were.
.justified in requiring from the Lf gislature some more
visible guarantees that the aspirations of the multi-
tude would be realizeo. Gladly should we have
witnessed the falsification of our predictions. PRo-
VIDENCE has, however, ordered otherwise. What we
said would inevitably come to pass has in fact
actually transpired. The dead are still hid
away in those crumbling dens of abomination, which
invest alt our principal places of public worship with
Lm aspect of repulsiveness. Dreamers may solace
themselv,!.s with anticipations of the time when inter-
meats will be everywhere extramural; but
without
some resolute interference on the part of the Govern-
ment that great blessing will he denied to the-pre-
sent generation.
Something, in short, remains to be done, in order
