THE REAL MEANING oP THE FRENCH Army

army implies aggressive and defensive designs
and II the combined hosts OF the great Powers
are really four TO one. as NJ Rouher's arthme-
tic implies, II is evident that the French army
were II even St0,OuO men strong. would h.
launched on desperate venture. Neither was
Marshal Mel more reassuring. The France OF
le69, with 5tOuN0 men under arms. could. h.,
said, only muster l07,0O At Solferino and had
10 make peace at Nillafranca- as IL was unabl..
TO night both on the Mncio and the Rhine
These statements are incorrect, for the Emperor
could have mustered against the Austrians

Kept idle under Prince Napoleon in Tuscany
But Were Marshal Niel's assertions we'll
founded what would his argument amount 20.
except that, let France increase her force as
much az she will, the only result must be a cor
responding effort 20 the same purpose by all the
other Powers, and war, possibly on a large
scale, but not on different relative proportions,
All the secret Of the unpopularity Of the bill
lies ln this; That IL evinces on the part of th.

The SOURCES OF OUR PoPULATIoS-There
Is one fact mentioned IN the report OF Mr. Banks
on the rights of naturalized citizens which will
strike many readers as somewhat new and
startling, but which is undoubtedly based upon
reliable data Ii is that without the additions
