and Frenchman, but as patriot-a man of no.
nor-and well-wisher of his species Those
'infamous Treaties of 1914 and 1915" must be
torn to ten millions atoms. and the people, and
not the twenty privileged crowned heads of Eu,
rope, must have their reign of power and autho-
rity! Oh yes, you may swear to this.
When he learnt, on his dying couch, that the
King of Great Britain had recalled the Ultra To-
ries to power, he exclaimed
"Je sens que je succomberai. Jele regrette,
car j'anras voulu serslr encore la patrie."
| To his friend, General Excelmans, ne said
"Eh! qu'importe que je meure, pourvu que la
Patric vive!'
In his last hours he signed protest, now pro-
posed By the patriotic Deputies Of France against
the policy of Louis Philip and his Minister, and
he died with the words "Country" and Honor"
on his lips. Lamarque was born at st. Sever in
I775, and died at his hotel in Paris OH LIST June,
1889. He was not, therefore, So years Of age.
His funeral will take place tomorrow; all Paris
will be present. 1t will be the testimony of the
millions-the respect and homage of the people!
1t will be day Of mourning, aud the remem-
brance Of what will pass tomorrow will last much
longer than did the life Of the departed. l have
paid my tribute Of respect. II was merited, and
it has not been excessive. His loss is national
loss--and he will live in the recollection of this
aud in the gratitude Of succeeding generations.
The Duchess Of Berry is in La Wendell! and
is accompanied by her fdus .4chates, the Mar
shall Bourmont! What fools are these Bour-
bons Fools to the ast--always fools-never
any thing but fools! So the ''D ieu dome Due
de Bordeaux" has for his champion the Marshal
Bourmont! Why, this alone would "damn his
cause" to eternal disgrace. Bourmont who
prayed in 1915, during the Hundred Days, to
enter into the service Of the Emperor-who got
Gerard to promise and swear for him that he
would be faithful to the national colors, and who
then deserted, aud went over to the enemy
Bourmont is the companion and Commander.in-
Chief of the Duchess Of Berry! But how came
she there? Here the Debats, the Ministerial
Journal, the defender of quasi legitimacy. 1t
says that it is believed that the Duchess eff Berry
landed between Perpignan aud Marseiles, ira
yelled under false passports in a caleche with
post horses, proceeded, to Bordeaux, and arrived
at La Vendee!!! Admirable Government! well
instructed police! perfect NJ. de Montalivet, Mi
mister of the Interior!
What! do you Imagine that this would or could
have occurred If 'the Patriots" instead of the
Carlists had been in power, and if those who
made the revolution had been charged to conduct
it towards its Just and necessary terminaloni-
and Couet, are in La Fendee; because they
know quite well that the present Government is
antinationa, and that some change will be effect
ed in a very short period Of time. Do you sup
pose that if Lafayette and Odilon Barrot, iIau-
Gun and Salverte, and men of their calibre, had
been the Ministers of Louis Philip, that even a
domestic Of the ''eldest branch would have ven
tued to land on the shores of France? Certainly
not; but now, the BOurbons, aware that the revou-
ton is not marching and that France is disSatisii-
ed and indignant, and agitated, and preparing tor
an early and radical change, they again venture on
the shores of this country, and the Duchess of
Berry rroclaims herself Regent! But the Ouch
ess of Berry like all the rest of the BUurbOns,
is fool! That is the word. | am sorry she is a
lady, and that must apply so strong an epithet
to a woman, But it is a fact; the Duchess of
Berry is a fool! She cannot distinguish between
France desiring to march with the Revolution,
and France Of her own, which makes France
desire to return to the times of proscrp-
ton and privilese-priestcraft and oppression
She does not comprehend the difference between
France annoyed, fatigued, and disguised with the
juste rnilieu, and signing for war and emancipa-
ton, and supposed and imaginary France Of
her own creation, which she thinks is waiting
with anxiety for the return Of the eldest branch
OF the House Uf Bourbon. She thinks that 1t Is a
question of * family" between the eldest and the
Youngest branch; and as Don Pedro attacks Don
Miguel, SO she would attack Louis Philip. She
cannot understand that the cry of France IS,
mo more Bourbons in France;" and she little
imagines that the mere Incident of Louis Philip
belonging to the same family is an immense fact
against him! In fact she is fool!
But as the Duchess of Berry has got to La
Vendee. what is to become Of herr The Mont
teur informs us, that on the reception of docu-
ments showing that she had really arrived, the
Government immediately transmitted By express
to all the authorities of the departments of the
west, to redoube the activity Of their researches
to discover the traces Of the Duchess and Of
Bourmont, and to arrest them, as well as all per.
sons connected with herr And what then? The
Montieur says no more.
When arrested, are they to be tried for high
treason, condemned and executed, or semitic Ho
lyrood, &" to read lessons to their friends and ia
milies?" Will Louis Philip and his Government
dare to imprison, for life, at least, these Roya
and Royalist Brisands? No, no; if the Duchess
be seized, she will not be punished; and the Mo
