| 1866 OF the most c0ncIIat0ry GlSp0-
sition, has held our good will of no
account, and has returned our for
bearance by encroachments. She has
aroused distrust in all quarters, ne
| cessitating exaggerated armaments.
and has made o. Europe, a camp
where reign distrust and fear of the
morrow. A final incident has dis
closed the instability Of the interna-
tional understanding, and shown the
gravity of the situation in the pres
ence of the new preteDslon. Prussia
was made to understand our claims.
They were evaded and followed with
contemptuous treatment.
Our country manifested profound
| dfspleasure at this action, and as
quickly as was ths cry resounded
from one end of France to the other,
there remains for US nothing but to
confde our destInies to the chance of
arms. We do not make war upon
Germany, whose independence we
respect We pledge ourselves that
the people composing the great Ger
manic Nationality shall dispose freely
of their destinies. As for US, we de-
mand the establishment OF state of
things guaranteeing our security, and
assuring the future. We wish TO
conquer a durable peace, based on
the true interest of the people, and
assist in abolishing that precarious
condition of things, where all nations
are forced to employ their reserves in
armiDg against each other.
THE glorious flag of France which
is once more unfurled to the face Of

ideas of our great nation. 1t repre-
sents the same principles. IL will in
spire the same devotion.
Frenchmen, l go to place myself
at the head of that valiant army,
which is animated by its love of ooun-
try and devotion to duty. The army
knows its worth, for it has seen vic
tory follow its footsteps in the four
quarters of the globe. l take with
me my son, despite his tender years.
He knows the duties his name i'm
poses upon him, and he is proud to
| bear his part in the dangers of those
who fight for our country. May God
bless our efforts. A great people de-
Tending a just cause, is invincible.
