wants in the way Of military resources and
preparations. and to inspire them with hopes
of that assistance from France which they
eventually received and which secured their
triumph. De Kalb discharged his mission
with skill and fidelity; aud as he was a sol
der of faith and honor rather than OF
fortune. he held himself bound to give the
HELM of his sword and Of his science to the
c~olonists whom be had encouraged into re-
volt. He fell gloriously on the field of Cam
den. sealing with his blood the cordial ALI
auce of the oldest of Christian monarchies
with the youngest of Christian republics.
The army of CORVALLIS against whom he
fought was largely made up of Hessiau mer-
cenaries.
But all this importation of past events into
present controversies is quite a delusion and
q snare. 1t is ungrateful, which is bad, aud
silly. which is perhaps worse, to deny the
great debt of gratitude due from the Ameri-
can people to France. Adams called France
''our natural ally, not only because she was
the enemy of England, but because she had
no interests in conflict with ours, and because
her philosophers and her statesmen of the
eighteenth century were in advance, not of
the Continent only but of England, in their
emancipation from feudalism and in their an
~ticipation of those great ideas which, since
the declaration of American independence,
have been carried with the arms of France
from the banks of the Seine to those of the
Danube and the Elbe. The Germany of our
Revolutionary day was the stronghold of
Continental feudalism. How much of the
progress which she since has made Germany
herself owes to France no candid and intelli-
gent German will find it easy to estimate;
and certainly no such German will deny that
the debt is a deep and a real debt.
At bottom, the interests of the people of
both countries are the same. To this their
own passions and prejudices, quite as much
as the ambition of rulers and of ministers,
may blind for a time either one people or the
other, or both. But the truth will make
itself felt decisively sooner or later. And in
the meanwhile it becomes Americans to deal
fairly by both parties, and to avoid being
caught up in the fiery whirl of the passions
of either.

RANCE AND GEttMAN In lI1E hENO-
LUTON.
From the n. Y. World.
If the existing war in Europe works us no
other good, it may, perhaps, induce some few
people, who evidently stand in need of light
on the subject, to investigate the history of
the United States. How frightful is the re-
sponsibility incurred by Mr.. Bancroft and
his publishers, who between them have scared
the present generation out of any attempt to
familiarize themselves with the deeds and the
sufferings of their ancestors! Here, for ex-
ample, is a correspondent of the Eoening
Post, writing from an university in Iowa, who
actually believes that France assisted the col
onies in their struggle because she was lat
war with England" and thinks that the case
of Lafayette and other generous French
men who came over to us of their own accord
has a parallel in that of the Prussian Baron
Steuben and of De Kalb." The Posts histo-
rian omits to mention whether the university
from which he writes affords him her ma
ternal milk of science in the capacity of a
pupil, or looks to him for light in the capacity
of an instructor. In either case it would be
an act of charity on the part of the "Children's
Aid Society" to send out a small boy from
one of our public schools, not exactly, as
Emerson says, to
'Teach Iowa Saxon art"
but at least to put that hopeful young com
rlBnt ABOUT the origins OF tnt
nation to which it belongs.
France did not assist America because sh,
was at war with England; but England wen
to war with France because she assisted
America. The Prussian Baron Steuben came
out to America, not because he was a Prus
sian, but because he was urged by the French
Count de st. German to come. He was no
in the Prussian service at all at the time, bu
was living in Paris, where his French friends

John w. Garrett of Maryland was chosen

If the party gets into power it will carry
out these things: Refuse to pay the Gov
eminent debt in gold; tax the securities
the government has given for the money
it owes the people; repeal a part of the re-
construction acts; restore every rebel and
traitor to citizenship, without qualification
or conditions; forbid Chinese to emigrate
here; and do a great many other things of
the same kind. 1t does not actually say
that the party will restore slavery, or re-
duce colored men again into bondage, but
leaves that to be inferred
