The BOurbons have forgotten tho
cruel lessons of the past. After lapse
of 40 years the French people are o.
bliged to repeat the l4th July and the
10Th August, not To make a revolution.
but to preserve what the revolution has
produced.
Let us not forget, then, as they have
done, the lessons Of the past. If the
nationa! cause suffers itself to be led n
way by evil counsels it will fall, in the
sequel, like the Bourbons, and, like
them, by, its own fault. If it be true
that the elder branch of the Royal
Family has abdicated, the interest of
the country is then to take for its first
hereditary Magistrate, and for its King,
the Duke Of Orleans, who fought at
the battle of Jemappe for the Reyolu-
ton OF 1879. Meantime the Duke of
Orleans, who arrived at Paris this morn
ing, has accepted the office of Lieuten-
as,t-General Of the Kingdom, and dis
played the national colours.
Yesterday the Court had sent some
troops 70 arrest the Duke of Orleans
at Neuilly. When it was known that
the Prince had set off during the night
for Paris, Royal Ordinance was inn
mediately issued, declaring the Prince
AN outlaw, and ordering all subjects to
fall upon him.
Two great events have long since
distinguished the present era--the love
of liberty and the love of order.
These two signs equally manifest them
selves in the noble combats of the cap
!; ital. The people remain faithful to
them. After having given its blood TO
liberty, it is ready to give it to order,
There is means TO render our tri-
, umph worthy Of the civilization which
produced it.
, Let us trust to history. 1t shows
: us, in England, that the substitution of
the patriotic William for the hypocrit-
: ical Stuarts secured both liberty and
order. Every thing was easy for the
cause Of the laws. Blood ceased to
how-resistanee became impossible
Europe and foreign Powers opened
their negotiations and treaties with
E England after it was regcnerated.
, Yesterday morning friday Charles
, y. and the Dauphin reviewed, near St.
Cloud, the troops which were still round
! that place. Both Of them cried, "Ihe
Charter for ever!" and Charles X. an
, nounced that he abdicated in favour of
, his son. An expressive silence met
+, his tardy declaration.
I, When Marshal Marmont appeared
, before the Dauphin, the Prince broke
out into the most violent and contelnpt-
nous expressions. 1t is affirmed that
he said, "You have treated us as you
did others" The Marshal promised.
even on the 10Th, TO hold out l5 days;
he did not hold out Is hours. The
Marshal has not betrayed them; on the
contrary, he caused the cannon to he

!, bitterest hostility. 4
;; 1t has been observed that the for. y
;, eigners at Paris, Russians, English.
r and Germans, openly declared for the
: defenders of the Charter. They re-
e ceived them into their houses when
e they were wounded-they brought them

Europe has taken some share in the

a which they, however, do not appear

If every thing seems to be preparing for
