" must say, when | see such facts ~ these, am
" infinitely impressed with the greatness of thu
" American people, and with tho formidable
character of the conflict which we or any other
country must sustain in any war with them
"That people have not idly and yainly imagined
that the true secret of their success is, in time
" of peace, to keep up huge ornaments be-
"liove that they have judged rightly in deter
mining that the true basis of their national
power is to husband and save their resources
lin ordinary times, and develop them without
" stint in periods of emergency. L cherish the
"hOpe that this magnificent example set by the
american people will have its effect not only
+" in this country, but in Europe, and will shame
"tho nations on the continent out of that suici-
"dal policy by which they have not only wasted
"their resources by creating standing armies
for idle parade, but, what is worse, have
" created o positive and serious danger, rs being
"a ready means of conflict" This is the Ian
guage of an enlightened statesman; the words
are as weighty as they are eloquent The great

popular freedom in Europe, is undoubtedly the

most alarming feature of the present state of

"(Mr McCullocl) our hearty congratulations
and our best wishes that he may long con-
"tinue to apply the same vigorous and prudent
"hand in thus wisely administering the re-
sources of his country" These congratula-
tons, We think, are deserved just so far as the
policy OF Mr. McCullOch keeps steadily on the
road to resumption, and as tho policy OF Con-
gress looks to a continued reduction of the debt.
But with obstacles thrown in the way OF con-
traction, and taxes 80 reduced that we dare
not hope for revenue that will continue the
process of redemption, can we read Mr.. Glad
stones eulogies with perfect complacencyf We
ought the more vigorously to urge that the good
beginning should be vigorously followed up,
the people bearing always in mind the truth
conveyed in Mr. GladstOne's words "The
secret of their future power hes in the steady

NJ. de Lamartne, it seems to us, affords
melancholy and remarkable example OF that
loss of self-respect which usually follows habit
ual mendicty. Many years ago we were civilly
assailed by IN itinerant agent of this celebrated
writer and were requested to subscribe to
new edition of his works. Upon our pleading
to be excused upon the ground that we did
not want the works of NJ. de Lamartine at all,
we were treated by the solicitor very much as
the Archbishop treated Gil Bias; and since that
time we have frequently found IN the digest
of French news, paragraphs announcing that
NJ. de Lamartine was again carrying round his
hat There was usually appended touching
tale of the extreme delinquency of NJ. de La
marines vineyard in not yielding its usual
crop, with another story of certain mortgages
ON the family estates which it was the moral
duty of the world instantly TO wipe off. 1t Is
not easy TO see what this gentleman has done,
that he should thus levy taxes upon the
rockets of mankind he has written, 1t Is tue,
respectables verses, and several volumes OF his
tory more remarkable for splendOr OF diction
than veracity of statement but for this work,
we believe, he has been extremely well paid !;
and if not. that is an affair between himself

tience of the general public long ago, we are
not surprised to find him knocking at the door
of the French Legislature, and asking for q
national donation Of 100000 francs, upon the
ground that he has Served, defended, Illus
",tfated, and enlightened his country" There
is something peculiarly French both in the re-
quest and in the manner OF making it. VI. de
LaIhartine has invented nothing, prevented
nothing, discovered nothing, established moth
ing. His poetry is tasteful, but France could
have struggled on without it. His speeches have
been fine and even superfine, but they
have not advanced the cause OF human liberty
to the value of a eeatime. A conservative with
Guizot, half-socialst with Louis Blanc half
absolutist with Napoleon Ill, he has always
been bringing his thoughts that breathe and
words that burn TO market, while there are
those who do not hesitate to attribute the
downfall of the Republic to his utter ineapacity
for public affairs. Such man may be pen
stoned to get rid of him, but the State is rid
of him already. The necessity for furthSi
disbursement of 100000 francs does not, there
fore, appear Times have changed since al. de
Lamartine called for the prescription OF Louis
Napoleon, but that long headed monarch NAV

at the last general election. In cities and IN
districts lying wholly on partly within incopo-

remain in session until 8 p. m, and will also
sit during the same hours on Saturday. In
other places they will sit from a. IN. Till 7

appear on the registry of 1869 are not required
TO be registered again, but can vote for dele

BY the terms of the Health bill, as finally

TO be allowed merely supervisory power
over the subject of the markets This is equiv

is permitted to see or suggest that the markets
be cleansed, ventilated, and drained; but how
is it possible to do any of these things
