victor Hugo's Address to Juarez.
The Guernsey Star publishes the appeal which
Victor Hugo addressed in vain to the President
of the Mexican Republic on behalf of the EN-
peror Macmillan. NJ Hugo says:-
Europe, in 1868, fell upon America. Two
monarchies attacked your democracy; one with
a prince, the other with an army-the army
bringing IN the Prince. The world then beheld
this spectacular army, the most warlike of
Europe, having as its base a fleet as powerful
on the sea as the army itself on land, having
for its sustenanee the whole revenue OF France
and well commanded, victorious In Africa, in
the Crimea, in Italy, in China, bravely fanatic
of its flag, having profusion of horses, arLil-
leIy, provisions, munitions, formidable. On
the other hand, Juarez. On one side two EN-
pires on the other mana man, with hand
fuI of other men. A man hunted from CITY 10
city, from hamlet to hamlet from forest TO
forest, aimed at by the infamous volleys of
councils of war, tracked, hiding in dens of the
earth like wild beast wandering in
the wilderness, with price liked upon
his head, having for generals O few
men of desperate fortunes, and for
soldiers few tattered wretches. Without money,
without bread, without powder, without eau
non, with the bush only tor stronghold. Here
usurpation styled legitmacy-there right styled
brieandaee usurpation with helmet on his
head salnted by bishops, and with imperial
sword in hand, pushing before it, and drawing
alter il all the legions Of power Right stood
alone and unarmed You-the embodiment of
Right-you accepted the combat. The battle of
One against All lasted three years. Wanting
men, you made use of things. The terrible
climate aided YOU; you had your sun for your
ally. You had defenders In the impossible lakes,
and torrents swarming with aligators, the
marshes teeming with feyers, the deadly vegeta-
ton, the Uonlato prieto of torrid lands the salt
deserts, the vast unwatered arid sands where
horses die of thirst, and the wide and fro Wning
nIafeau of Anahuac, which is impregnable from
its nudity Like CASTLE, the plains contain
gulfs ever trembling with the shocks Of volca-
noes from the COllma to Nevada de Toluca;
YOU called TO your help the natural barriers,
the lofty walls OF Dasait, the colossal rocks OF
lyon have fought war of giants, hurting
mountains at your foes. And there came q day
after 1--WE years Of smoke OF dust, of blindness,
when the cloud was dispersed, aud there were
! seen two empires PROSTATE on the earth. NO
