The French will succeed Europe TO be
RCVOlutionized.

Ever since the surrender of Sedan the only
doubt r spcc,ing the future of France was
whether the French people were in earnest
This doubt IS now removed they are entr
" and Overwhelmingly in earnest TIC
titrmans arc destined to be beaten Franco
will be saved, and the Republic will be ,ar-
ricd throughout Europe.
Tic pivot Of the contest is 81 Paris That
city has now been besegtd a hundred Gays,
and there seems TO bo no question that 1t can
hold out a hundred days more before famine
compcls its surrender. Meanwhile, the
French have raised, organized, disc lDed,
and fought new armies With the cxcep.
ton of some seventy thoueand dcmoralized
regulars whom TRocuU has Incorporated
into the Army of Paris, these new forces arc
men who have never been infected with the
poison of imperial corruption. IL was n
great piece Of good fortune for France, though
it seemed to be a castor, that the army and
the traitorous generals of the Empire were
taken captive along with the Emporor.
They are now prisoners in Germ my, three
hundred and fifty thousand of thcm-a cause
of dangerous weakness 10 the Germans, a
relief ard cause Of safety to France
OF the new French soldiers-more than a
million in number-a large portion are shut
up in Paris; but there are at least six or
seven hundred Thousand Frenchm IN now in
arms without the walls Of that ty. Many
Of them are Sighting in parties of from City
NA
destructive to Germany, most safe and cfec,
tive for France. But even these forces nre
only the advance guard Of the great army
that is rising up. Within six months there
will lie in the field fully two millions OF
French soldiers, oficere1 by honest and brave
men, all bent upon the ono great purposa Of
driving out the invNder, and saving France.
That done, they will advance into Germany,
not TO conquer her people but to free them
from kings, princes, mobiles and emperors,
and to form the United States of Eur Jpc-a
confederation Of varied ratonalites and
equal republics, oy which the peace of the
Continent will be secured and standing ar

This IS the programme which events are

FRASK BLAIR has always maintained that
Gen. GRANT would not leave the White
House quietly at the end of bis term, but
would undertake, by o military revolution,
TO make himself tho permanent ruler
monarch, dictator, ernperor-whatovcr he
might call it-ofth country.
This has always seemed to us mistaken
opinion; but the pigheaded obstinocy with
which he is trying to force upon the people
this foul aud odious San Domingo job, looks
ns though FRANK BLAIR night not be so
far wrong in this respect as most people
have thought him.
