ters
"CIrrzEN President: You have just con.
s,ituted Ministry which, in my eyes, is the
personification of the counter.revolution. The
Republic is about to be directed, after eight
months Of existence, by men who have at
all times employed their intelligence and
their efforts to prevent its existence. The
policy is, perhaps, able; but do not som-
prehend it, and still less approve of il.
s'In presence of the dangers which threaten
liberty in France, while it is triumphing in
Germany, go TO resume my place among
the adversaries of loyalty, whom shall COM
bat under whatever disguise. All the SOL
diers of Democracy ought to be at their posts,
and mine is no longer where my political
sympathies have ceased TO be.
"Please to give me a successor. Salut ct
trdternits.
'THE PERFECT OF Police, DucoUx."
General Cavaignac has complied with M.
Ducouxs request to give him successor.
