harbors wild beasts, and keeps up laboratory OF

IA rather indefinite. Prove that hazzni, Ledru
Robin. or any body else, is the accomplish IN com
mitted or intended murder Of a frcnchman, ana the
English authorities should give him mp TO the rench
authorities according TO their oan laws and existing
treaties. One would hardly think that SO intelli-
CERT man as NJ. de Morny should grow so warm
Win simple request IL England to fulfill her trea-
tes Then fthis part oil bis address means any thing
more than " occasiousl bosh, it means that England
must be asked--nOt to say iorced-to pass new
hvs in aid OF. the French police and French pol
iey. Political refugees, then, holding Opinions
which if put into practical operation would upset
the present French Government must be rejected
from Ler shores II is difficult TO see how anything
ness than this can satisfy the demands implied inthe
address OF NJ. de Morny, and IN the report TO the
Emperor, aprop0s OF the suppression Of certain
Journals (of which spoke in my lsst), OF the Min
lister Of the Interior. Surprising that England
could by any possibility pass such laws, they might
suit his Majesty very well just now, but they would
have been uncommonly inconvenient had they been
IN ferce any time before 1913, not only 10 Louis
NapoIeOn but 10 Louis Philippe 10 Charles y. and
TO Louis XVIII. 1t is odd that the demand should
seme from France 10 England for increased severity
toward political refugees, when France has hardly
yet dore with her cutlery over the perhdy OF En-
gland IN the single instance where, for seli-deense,
she treated political refugee aPriscner aud BAN

The otter address selected for comment is one
from meeting Of three hundred or more English
gentlemen held at Meurlcc's Hotel. The comment
Belongs not 10 the address, however, which Is brle
hearty and commonplace, 80 much az TO some
speecbes made at the meeting. There were Eng

the Trades of NJ. dc MorDy and Minister Blllault
They proposed that IN the address should be ncorpo-
rated an snswer 10 these TRADES; and ~ was only on
abe ground that the meeting was called solely for the
purpose of expressing sympathy toward Their atics
bes and execrating the aseasstons, that they were
persusded 10 desst fror. their protest against the
passionate language of De Morny and others.
OF the new repressive measures threatened III IA
Emperor Message, We have no tuIther specilne
than the suppression Of the Rer"e dc Far'S ana Ia
Susctate,rr Perhaps DO others were immedlatel
intended; perhaps the execution OF further inteii
was checked by the sensation produced by thi'
specinep The severity. not Ia say violence,
ths language of NJ. Bleults report followed by IN
two decrees Of suppression created serious alarm
There was no telling where DeR policy OF repres
sion and suppression, with such beginning, mgh
end. The alarm was by no means confined TO jour
nself in the quotations Of the day. Fortunately for
the world to-dsy--nsy, fortunately for Louis Nspo,,
kop--the voice Of public opinion cannot be smotered
cutie out In the Imperial Message itself there are
cheering and marked tokens OF It's force. Two
among the most noteworthy features of that re-
marbable document ore the report II contains oi
the writer's stewardship as ruler Of tho French
people for the past year. and the volunteered de-
anse Of policy of severe repression, based MOI st
all on the essential righteousness 81 such policy
but on the ground Of its strictly provisional ~tihiy
as preparation for future liberty And note further
that an attempt il made to defend this policy by
stretching comparison int) parallel between the
aea ual position oi the Emperor and that OF William,
Ill, and the beginning oi the iisnUveran dynasty IN
constitutional England. II is worthy o. observation
