CAhIBRAY, NOVEMBER 8.

We are now upon our march back, returning home
like birds of passage to warmer countries. All our
words and thoughts are directed to the Rhine, whose
name sounds to us, and effects us in a foreign land
like a song of our childhood. We are only sorry to
part from our comrades who remain here, or leave
us on other accounts. What all have so anxiously
looked for is now come, and the war seems to be also
politically ended, We run to see what we have
thrown ; but when we look at the die, it is as last
year a bad throw.
If we ought, therefore, rather to cry than to laugh
on going away, we cannot, however, be blamed for
rejoicing, since there is no country where one so
easily gets the asaladis du fay:, or longing for home ;
no country where one feels so banished, so truly mi.
sirable as htre.

The inhabitants cannot conceive this, and fancy
we are sorry to leave them. Some even say they have
taken a liking to as, and are sorry to see us go, while
their eyes sparkle for joy at it, which, however, we
of course do not take amiss in them.

In Whatever light we view the matter, sn much is
certain, that as soon u we an gone the people bete

will stand in very different relations to etch othrr.
and sentiments hitherto concealed will come to light
Who knows if the fire will not again burst forth, and
rise Abram their heads ?

The French people, like some individuals in wlmse
composition anger and desire are predominant, can-
not pass quietly over the clift between opposite ex.
tremes, but only by miken leaps.

As in Goethe's lifilrhuhligm (all guilty) they stand

into this intrigue, and has played them this trick
becau,e they hare indulged in all their lusts. As it
is, they persevere in their parts, stud torment them
selves and the spectators.
