reckoriug-pealed. double-cbarged the people sprang
NO and gave vent 20 their joy in shouts of enthusiasm
Il would perhaps be TOO much TO report such an out
burst Of eIutation now. People have become SO
blaze in revolution so accustomed To overtho"s Oh
dvnasies and 10 changes OF government, that what
ever fund of enthusiasm they might have once pos
se.sed has been pretty well exhausted They feel II
il true. they are governed 10y firm hand, anu that
80 long as life and energy spared to the presens
occupant OF the throne Il there Is not much hope OF
the liberty which has been much and 80 often mis-
used there is still less chance of anarchy
The birth of the heir to the second empire, Il VIII be
admitted occur under circumstances not less favor
able than the fr,t. II is true that the first Napoleon
was then in the zenith Of his power-trom the 2Oth
March. ISL. Ia the first a-ters which AWAITED hin
beyond the Nemtn. The Empire, with the STATS
possessed by the Imperial ia My, then counted not
less than s. 600 eco souls. But it IS no les true that
the moment was fast approaching when his power
unexampled in modern times, began 10 decline, untll
il fell TO ruin. The clouds were ALREADY oeginhing
70 darken the horizon. The seeds OF the conflict
with Russia, which 70 end in the stupendOus
catastrophe of Moscow, had already been sown
The father of the present ruler OF France, Weareh
with the eyigcnces of his imperiOus brother, ha an
dicated in dilpair the throne of Holland, which he
could 10 longer hope to ill al independent Sover-
eign. The incorporation with the French Empire OF
the Valos, the annexation OF the Hanse Towns ana
the Grand Ducly of Odenburg the ruler OF which was
tho brotber in.law of Alexander and which brought
the French Empire to Lubec, vi bin sight OF the Nus
sian frontier, awakened the jealousy Of Russia ana
justified the suspicion that the restoration OF Poland
was at hand.
The refusal of Napoleon to ratfy the Convention of
Chaupagny the ukase OF the Car relating hl- de-
crees against English commerce. the resumption OF the
kincdoan Of Hanover from jerome, were among the
precursors of the storm that was 70 follow. Yet all
these symptoms of approaching decline more than
compensated by the birth of the Ming OF Rome on the
goth Of March, 1911.
The state Of Europe at this moment If so familiar to
all that is hardly necessary TO aude 10 the difference
of circumstances under which the event announced
this morning takes place. The most formidable and
most consistent enemy the frs Emperor had has be-
come the friend and ally of the second. Russia, then
menacing the power against which 70 many arms were
seen TO he upfed, now admits her defeat by England
and France united. Tie second Emperor, who but
thee short years back excited mstrus abroad and at
home has proved himself trustworthy. and in the terri
bic contest which France and England have sustained

motive for complaint suspicion has arlsen vi the

poets have been bghted that II would be presumptu-
ous to indulge in anything Ike prediction.
