the sweetest bcnignity and the most beautiful
and trustful hope iii the future. Nothing
more tenderly benevolent ever before flowed
from those patcrnal lips, not even when he
said ut Bordeaux the Empire Is peace.
This leads many persons to apprehend that we
are going 10 have war this year; for some there
are who never believe that this Emperor says
the thing he means. There is, however, no
good reason 10 doubt that the French sove-
reign really desires peace. In the first place,
France has need of tranquility TO recruit her
finances s.; and in the next place the Emperor
cannot reasonably look upon any oil me exist
ing questions rs likely 10 breed serious
trouble. The peremptory revocation OF the
Extradition Treaty with England has no
political meaning whatever; II Is u mat
ter of Jurisprudence only; and before the
six months are out there will be nssufedly
new treaty negotiated, with some slight nlodl-
tications upon the present. Yet iolks VINO

rising in the east, in the west, everywhere all
round-"a field of the dead PUSHES req on my
sight ,,-these sort of people have been trying
to puff up that triaing affair into an omen OF
fearful portent. Some affirming that france
desires n new treaty which will enable her 10
get hold of political refugees; others, with
equal assurance, maintaining that England
wants to lay her hand upon some Fenians who
are said 10 be In Paris and bolh equally Ger.
tain that the dreadful affair indicates The near
breakup of the entente cordidte. There is
nothing in il whatever Neither England nor
France has the least chance OF pursuing her
political enemies upon the SOIL OF tue o.heI
country; and neither has dreamed oft. That
same entente coydiale, indeed, Is worth little,
and may break any day, but not over the

laudatory of the Fenians, and urging Irishmen
and Americans 10 contribute TO the Fenian

I'VE tell the American public-and they
have heretofore found us pretty accurate
prophets in everything relative 10 the Fenian
cause-that before ten weeks there will be-
somewhere-an Irish Republic existing on the
face of the earth, with flag, IN army, port
of entry and exit, a navy OF privateers and
the tacit encouragement both OF France and
the United States In the prosecution of bellIge-
rent acts against Great Britain. Let no one

be located, for we cannot answer IL must be
