Fregn Correspondence Of The Tribune
LONDON, March 10, lsis.
THE REPUBLIC OF FRANCE is the grandest spec
tacle of modern times. The eyes of all Europe are
turned toward it. The brightest and the gloom
lest prognostications as TO the future are made
The great questionis, Will the Republic last r.
1t is believed by some that it will not and yet 80
far, the Provisiona Government has worked won.
ders-it has calmei the fiery spirits OF the Hevolu'
tion--it has re61ened shops-restored order when
all was chaos-ispired coniidence-brought back
the frightened forsigner-kept the wheels OF trade
in motion-employ ed the peope-ted the hun
sry-establisbed the Republic, and is now making
peace with all the world. 1t is sublime spectacle |!
A monarchy has been overturned by the unarmed
people in the presence of 100 900 Of the finest sol
diers in Europe. A King. boas.ing OF his power
| hos been driven into exile-hls whole family ban
ished-their entire enormous wealth con6scated
while the young Republic of France uniarls the
new banner of
"LiBERTY-EQALITT-F RATERSi1YI
/ The people bow down before it and accept 1t -
4 The whole drama is more like a dream than sol
emn aud ulstirrng fact. So rapidly has 1t been
enacted that it appears entirely incredible. Inc
shock has almost supplied the crowned heads OF all
Europe Its fall effects are not yet known. But
it touches rapid every kingdom like the electric
wire. 1t awakes every nation from it's long and
Improbable slumber and leads the oppressed peo
pie of each to ask" Why may We not be free y
and the people thus oppressed are struggling
with all their strength TO rid themselves OF the iron
chains which have so long fettered them ana bound
them to the earth.
What has been the real effect of the French
Revolution In England it compelled Ministers,
confident Of their TO retrsce their steps snd
grant concessions. In Italy it aroused the whole
nation 10 Austria it struck terror into the minds
OF the supreme rulers In S Switzerland a thrill OF
10y passed from man to man In Belgium the cry
of Liberty" was heard in every town In Ger
many the people clssped their hands. Ia AMERICA
one long loud universal shout will be given, and 1t
will be thrown of by the strongest sympathy Of
man for his fellow being twill be for THE REPUB'
Lie OF FRANCE. The rich echo will be heard in all
Europe, and its ultimate effects no one can pre-
sumo to predict
| cannot trust my pen TO describe the different
stages Of the Revolution in France, that have so
astonished and electrified the Old World. The
can only dash of the outlines. Some great his.
torian of the day will faithfully give the whole sub
iect, so that it shall live for the admiration and
wonder of future generations.
The American and the French flags are now de-
posted on one stat, INTERVIEWING with each other
in the sacred archives Of the French Republic
This one fact is sufficient to make the monarchs Of
Europe weep bitter tears and the people OF Anne
RIGA drop tears Of joy
The French people have as yet received no ire-
ternal sympsthy from any human being. with the
single exception OF the warm sympathy OF every
American now abroad.
Never In the whole course OF my life have felt
so proud of my own country as at the present mo
ment for feel that 1t is destined to direct and con-
troll the world In another letter ! shall refer to
other subjects. Your very obedient servant T.
