to be ashamed Of the support which was
accorded to him. A large share Of that

TIE ARMY OF FRANcE-Wh.t has be-
come Of that glorious army Of which
Europe for years has been afraid? Where
is the French army to-day? In St'ss
burg. or Meiz. or Paris. or dead. Why
has il failed so? Because it was no more
nor less than 9 police force. 1t existsd
for two purpose-to make show and
to keep order. These two purposes it
we'll served. II was the enemy of the
French people. not their protector. So
long as it was employed for its Legitimate
purpose it was q grand institution. But
the moment it had to do what it never
exrected to do its knees shook. it trem-
bled and fell. Grand o. police force.
it is weak as on army. Powerful sgsinst
the French people. it is powerless against
the invading foe. Since the days Of the
First Napoleon it does seem as If France
had been thinking only Of herself. This
is not the sge for celestial empires.

an old gentleman named Col. W. II.

HE CHANGE OF A FEW MoNTHs.-I Il is in
teresting, says the Pail Mall Gazette, to
mark the progress of civilization from year
to year.. On the 18th of September, one
twelve month ago. all Europe quivered
with horror at the slaughter of the Kinck
family by Tropmann. The violent death
of seven persons shocked the civilized
world. How vast has been our improve
ment in this short period what tone have
our nerves acquired We read Of the
slaughter of seven thousand persons with
far more calmness than we heard
of the slaughter of seven. The KiDck
family were only sacrificed to the
exigencies of an individual; the thousands
whose corpses are lying beneath the battles
fields in Alsaee and Lorraine have been
sacrificed to the necessities of nations; and
herein lies the difference. Yet We should
never forget that the victims in each case
are individuals; every wounded man lying
now in q hospital suffers more than any OF
the Kicks. Gamblers tell US that it is not
so much the money they lose at the table
that ruins them as the impossihility they
find of economizing shillings in the ordi-
nary Transactions OF life, when they have
accustomed themselves to stake hundreds
of pounds On one throw of the dice; and
so it is with human lives. We lose all
sense of their value in the lavish waste of
war.
