Lord Aberdeen prophecied week since in the
British Parliament. In 90 the new principle first
triumphed in France over foreign violence l-Oi
confirmed this triumph BY the invasion more
moral than military, which she directed at other
countries 1914 and - saw our ambition chas-
tsed, and severe lesson bestowed on France

tic interests and duties then followed period IN
which LIBERAL principles gerninated and took root
through the very hostility with which their extnc-
ton was attempted; in 80 France herself awoke.
and first ray Of hope fell upon Europe-a hope
Of which the siege OF Antwerp and the occupation
Of Ancoua were pledges. But l54- was indeed
the day Of waking and emancipation for the entire
Continent though upon one condition on tte
condition that France should lend her energies 70
the aid Of the appealing nations.
Allow me TO forewarn you against attdbuting
any impulse Of the military spirit and Of conquest to
this opinion az the Intervention of France in the
affairs of other nations. In your grand Republi,
you have entirely opposite maxim of State but
true as it 10 for you it would be equally false for
US The very reasons which prescribe for you
non interference render It necessary that the
foreign policy of France should be Intervention
1t is our duty toward the oppressed, It is our right
IN tse name Of liberty and Of the principles we
represent and finally it is interest, for our ow
safety is at stake. II the Revolution does not
triumph in Europe we shall be anew assaed and
invaded. And it is no longer the emigres at Cob
lentz who desire tins, but the new refugees al
Brussels and London it is the men OF the eslthy
middle class from Paris. This is a fact full Of
alarm. Here in Paris if the invasion is not
actually demanded it is negotiated about and pre-
pared l will presently tell you some positive
facts in this connection. But just as in the first
DAYS Of your previous history when the Pilgrim
Fathers Of New-England were beset 10y nations
of warlike Savages, whose energies were devoted
to maintaining the supremacy OF brutal force on
the earth given TO be freely aud peacefully culti
waited aud enjoyed by man, war and invasion
were necessarily their policy-so 1t IS with us
now. We are surrounded by what Is in some
respects worse than savage tribes namely, civil
cation going to decay, and France is the only
power whose constitution is homogeneous. the
only nation which has rearly destroyed tho old
feudal system, and finally the only nation through
which the emancig alton OF others can be achieved
Without our aid they must be overcome, because
! in respect OF national neutrality-suspicious. con-
shering the great work OF religious reiorm-they
are where We at the beginning OF the reign Of
Louis NJ. Germany has still twenty one sovereigns

when Louis XIV. mounted the throne
This duty, right interest Of ours, history should
have taught US in the year lsis. Providence has
given us six different advertisements in six Cap
nas, namely, Milan Berlin, Vienna, Turin, Naples
and Rome
We have remained deaf to every other accent
nsensibIe to every other inspiration than the
chink of gold and silver. Only Socialism has a
re ady heart and an assured faith The skeptics de-
ceiyed or corrupted by the financial feudaism
have delivered the Revolution and themselves to
its poisonous influence Stocks rise as the inya-
sion approaches.
Let me repeat the cause Of this detection on the
part Of our old Republicans for it IS worth repeat
