FRANCE.
To The Editor Of the Morning Chronicle.
PARIS, September l, 1890
Sr--Ihe recognition of"thc King of the French
by the King of Great Britain is the triumph of repub
lcanism. here be many WAC will deny this Short
sighted and prejudiccd, interested either as stock
Jobbers or hack diplomatiss in asserting the Contra
ry' these tremblers the hand these selfish
wen paid men on the other, will tell you that it is no
such thing because France is not Republic but has
hunted Monarch,cal Government. But this denial
can be met by fact, nay, by thousands IF facts
which are every hour trsnspirInC, and which demon
strate that 1t Is RePublicanism which has trumphed
In France, If not name, yet in fact. The KING of
the French is the President of the republic Tho
Chamber of Deputies the members of the Lower
and the Peers of the Upper House of Congress. AS
TO hereditary Peersge, will soon be des' royed As
to the Arstocratical qualifications necessary to be
enjoyed by Deputies and Electors they are already
reduced greatly in value, and by the irausitnrv
law now passing Immense concessions made TO
the public voice and TO the will of the people The
Ministers of State suppressed. The service OIL
the artillery and engineers placed under the SUI
perlntendence of Commissioners, and in both cases
the Offices of Inspectors General have been abolished
The army Will ere long appoint its officers as the
Chambers already name their own Presidents and as
the National Guard have selected their superiors
Ministers are to be responsible for their acts and
their responsibility to be defined by law Tho ONLY
difference between the Republic OF America and that
OF France 10 this that in the former the President is
not permanent nor is the Office hereditary As TO the
civil list, that of the American Government will very
soon be equal to that OF the French for there be no
Placemen, no secret service money, and no voice will
govern but that of the people That voice will how
ever be heard constituonaly. The King Of the
French will be treated with attention and rcspcc, ms
long as he shall walk IN accordance with the prnc,-
pies OF the Constitution; but should he or his success
sors ever forget that the spirit of the Charter il es
scn'ay republican, why, the people will have Pres
ident instead of King, and nothing will require TO
be altered except a name.
The present King thoroughly understands his DO
sitioo: am disposed to believe that he knows and
leeis II much better than either his Ministers or the
Chambers. lie has expressed himself so clearly on
this point within tho last few days that cannot alb
stain from citing his words They are wort remem-
oer'ng, ana as placed on record in the columns Of
the Monieur.-
"Ou ai toujours soutenu les droi;s dc Ia nation e
les soutlendrai toujours. Je midentife avec ole
Dtes le bIen ct Vos commetiens e sus un Roi Cito-
yen
hope this is sufficiently distinct. The King of tho
French says, that ne will sustain the rights of the
nation because he Identifies himself with the peonle-
for he is a Citizen King.
TO another DePutaton he said, in reply to loyal
