The following remarks are extracted from
"Vieus Of Public Afairs," from the
Ctrislsan Observer, Tor February, 1895:
cit - with with the greatest griet and
concern, we would not willing ly use the
word Indignation, that we witness the
French Government untaugbt by the mis-
cries of FIVE and twenty years Of disaster
and revolution, aud unmlndiul OF those
lessons OF patriotism and political wisdom
which during that period of humiliation
the house OF Bourbon had most ample OPP
portunity OF learning, in tie free and hos.
pitable kingdom that received them as
outcasts TO its demonstrating. in con-
tempt OF public feeling even in France it
self and in violation of the best interests
of m mankind. the exploded servilities OF the
darkest feudal days. and assuming the
right Of hostile interference in the purely
domestic aft irs Of foreign and indie
pendent countries, although these have not,
like revolutionary France, justified such
interference, by having. invited the sub.
jects Of other states to fraternize with
them, or having endeavored to sow the
seeds Of discord among their neighbors -
Ii is difficult 10 know which part of the
Speech of the King of France .alIs for The
strongest reprubatiop whether the mock
cry Of pretending to be actuated by the
motive of Saving that fine
