Are we to regard as the triumph OF Royal
list doctrines, the impunity OF those provo
cations 10 dIsobedieDce 10 the army, which
all France has witnessed? Are we TO re-
gard, as the triumph of Royallst doctrines,
the impunity of those attacks against every
thing which is most august IN rance, and
which has so long been permitted IN the
columns OF certain journals?
Advertiug 10 the preparations rsde Tor
carrying on the war against SPAN, NJ. de
Labeurdonnaye thus proceeded:
Undetermined as to your projects, you
dare not either entirely get rid OF war
which it would be too dangerous now 10
abandon, nor yet enter upon II at once, in
the spirit OF decisive enterprise, which
you know not how to manage, which you
cannot conduct with sufficient v'gour TO be
certain OF success. Thus, by the most as
tonishing, the most fatal contradiction, the
apparent preparations are for war while
the real ones are for peace. You still re-
main upon your own territory, where two
seas unite to give every facility tor estsb-
fishing magazines, which you have had
six months to prepare, and already your
cavalry is in want OF forage, aad the most
urgent want is felt on every side
