up in her own fortresses, imprisoned in her
own cities, and PROSTATE at the feet of
single conqueror. There can be no doubt
that the conquest of France transfers the
power of Europe to Germany, And we
venture to assert that the Prussian triumph
is the best thing ror Europe, and for France
herself. It must open her eyes to the hol-
lowness of mere military glory and power,
and teach her that glory no less than
strength is to be found only in peaceful
progress. The Prussian power on the bat
tie field is due to Prussian training in the
family and in the school. The magnificent
culture which began after the battle Of
Jena, is now reaping its fruits from the
Rhine to Paris. The Prussian system is
now to be the system of the future. Here
after, if war is to be the means of further
ing civilization, it is to be fought by citi-
zens and not by mercenaries. 1t is not to
be the amusement Of kings, but the bust
ness of the people. 1t is to be entered on
reluctantly and solemnly. Every man
who clamors for war is 'to pay with his
person" The lesson is full of instruction
for all nations, and it will teach France
more than anything else to keep down that
military spirit which has been 50 effective
to prevent all stablegovernment, and made
her so ready prey to adventures, and
rendered her legislature so feeble and pow
erless, that it could be driven away by the
first breath of a popular mob, or overborne
by the will of a despot. Gravelotte and
Sedan are the best teachers France has ev-
er had, and may do for her what Jena did
forty years ago toPrussia.- Vermont JFdtch-
