When the Government puts in peril, by

IN abolishing the dynasty responsible
for oil our misfortunes. She has done
badly in face of oil the world. This
great act of justice she executes by the
decree under which all your consoripts
have been summoned, and in the snme
act secures public safety. TO save herself
the nation needs now but to rise en-
7'aasse, and henoeforth to count on two
things only; its own resolution, which is
invincible, and your heroism, which has
never had an equal, and Which, amid
nnmerlted reverses, has astonished the
world, Rally around the glorious sym
boil which, eighty years ago, drove back
aii Europe, united before us Us at that
t!me The name of Republic signifies
the Intimate union of the army and peo-

nent among the people-defence of
the nation and organization are quietly

script The war news and details are
