THIS Is NJ GIRARDIN's SYSTEM
of federation, and the one upon which he hopes to
unity ana consolidate France. Like America, France
would have Senate and House OF Representa-
tlves anu local Legislatures for each State-,nough
no system or national judiciary seems TO be pro.
vided for. The Journal is filled with twelve col.
umns OF reading matter, all devoted to this idea OF
federation. There are plenty OF homiies on repnbll-
can government, and among them the eight lettels
of BOnhOmm Franklin. 1t is enough to say to the
reader that M. Girardn ID somethin. OF the iantas
nc IN politics. writing pamphlets, aud like the Swans
OF the Latin Quarter, lie always has o new idea on
hand. 1t was he who proclaimed that Napoleon
would lose his empire aud mind by over-induging
in cigarettes and it was he who eased his intellect
by his late zone Hundred Days" But nj. Girardin
