only TO ratlIy JQo aCL OF Inc IIOElSIoHdi
Government.
But then comes the further question:
was it incumbent on the Provisional Gov
ernment as patriots and wise men to con
clude peace In answering that, we must
remember, first, that in all probability the
chances Of successful resistance do not
appear nearly so hopeless to M. Jules
Fayre and his colleagues, as they appear
to US. We ourselves should not
be easily persuaded that with an
army Of 300, 900 men behind strong
Notifications, and the military resources
of the provinces not half exhaus-
ted, the change of any prolonged resis-
lance 10 invasion was hopeless. We
should not easily consent to give up Kent
and the Isle of Wight with such an army,
even though blockaded by one of double
It's number, still in existence. 1t would
be wholly unreasonable to suppose that
the English view of the hOpelessneSs of
the struggle is that Of the Provisional
Government. A brave and beIlicose ma
ton hardly can believe in conquest, and
cannot believe it at all in such cirCum-
stances as those in which the French are
now placed. Again, had the Provisional
Government consented to the terms re-
fused, there was every chance, not to say
certainty, of an Gmeute in Paris and of their
own deposition, and that most fatal OF
possibilities, a hcadless nation raging
turiousIy against the chiefs Of all parties
for their Incapacity and treachery. Had
the Republican leaders been guilty Of
what would have seemed a national
treachery after the great downfall Of the
Empire, France would have ceased to
nave faith in any government, and we
might have seen her unity broken up,
her population disorganized, her most
violent men forming local parties in every
quarter of France, and no authority any
where sufficiently respected to restore
the peace of society and the prestige Of
law. Compared with such a result, o
siege of Paris, howeverbIoody and fruit
less, in which the existing leaders will
have the means of showing their fortitude
aud their patriotism, is a slight evil.
Undoubtedly there are crises in a nations
life when even q f~ruitles8 resistance to
the foreigner is the absolute condition Of
future order, and we sincerely believe
this crisis in the life of France to be such
aOue. The nation is writing under the
belief that the lncapacity and corruption
of the Emperor's rule have betrayed it to
Germany. Let it once believe that SINH
lar i%capacity and treachery are at work
among the moderate Republicans, and
there would be a long interval Of anarchy
in France. We do not believe that the
Provisional Government could have made
peace on the terms offered without being

were such as the Provisional Government
absolutely could not accept, but yet, #
time were given to consult tho ConstItu-
ont Assembly, they would, he said, resign
their provisional powers into the hands
Of that Assembly, and leave the Assem-
bIY free to take its own decision. After
this announcement The question for dis
cussi0n became one on The conditions Of
an armlstice. Count Bismarck offered,
saws NJ. Jules Favre, an armistice of if
teen days, on condition Strasburg, TOul,
and Phalsburg Che German accounts
say Verdun} were at once surrendered,
and that in case the Assembly met in
Paris, one ofthe forts commanding Paris,
saw Mont ValGrian, were pat into the
hands of the Germans. W. Jules Favro
remarked that they might as well ask
for Paris itself, on which this condition
was given up, it being understood that
the Assembly would meet not In Paris
but at Tours, bat the Germans insisted
on the other conditions, and Insisted fur
Their ch4ttha garrison oISGrasburg should
be made prisoners Of war. These, chen,
were the conditions the Provisional Gov
eminent had to COusjder,-a dishearten-
inc armistice, one of the terms Of which
was that an Qnsurrendered garrison,
which had fought for France the greatest
6gbt Of the war, should be made prison
ors of war, as Introductory to a peace
involving the cessi0n of reluctant popu-
@lati0us, which had hitherto borne the
whole brunt Of the battle, to the enemy
Now. we think it absolutely obvious that
he nrcoufanrn Of vurh nm nrYoi2fjcG UOub0
A0Ue left no real chojce IN the handS Of The
Constituent assembly as TO The acceptaace Of
The yeacc-lhat it would, in fact, have
been equivalent to the conclusion of
nance there and then by the Provisional
Government, and rather q moan form Of
so concluding il, as appearing to cast on
fho Constituent Assembly a responsibility
nractically taken out Of its hands. A
truce which involved q voluntary surron-
der to the enemy of the most gallant of
the defenders Of France, as yet unvan-
duished, as well as the surrender of three
fortresses, however likely TO fall, would
have taken the last Vestige OF spirit out
of the garrison Of Paris and the French
Deople. No people is more easily demo.
raliZed by the confession OF faIuthearted-
ness on the part Of rulers. How could
any Minister go seriously to a Parliament
and ask fit would or would not continue
a war after a fortnight of su%rrendering
of fortrosses, the bravest of brave garri-
sons having been voluntarily abandoned
TO the enemy, and the Germans having
been employed all the time in bringing
up along all the lines Of railway the
heavy siege guns for the attack ? You
