A Manifesto nom the Comte dc Chama
bord-Monarchy the Only True Liberty
for France.
The following s the full text OF the recent letter
Of the Comte de Chambord, which is described as
having attracted much notice in Paris:-
EBENzwEYER, Oct. Is, 1872.
do not hesitate, my dear La ROchette, to reply
frankly to the questions which you have put to me-
France would be saved, and we should see her rise
from her ruins stronger and greater than ever II
the real conditions OF safety We're rightly understood
tells it that the traditional monarchy could restore
to it that rep0se which 1t so much desires, ana Is
yat wc or a the ors to ead and
the nation are red0ubled. Your patriotic spirit
revots against this, and you grieve to find SO many
generous minds becoming involuntary acc0mpilceS
OF which they detest and VI solutions which
they dread. lament this as much as you do; but.
like you, protest against the establishment OF q
state Of things intended to prolong our msi0r-
tunes. 1t is impossible to be mistaken on that
point. The proclamation OF the Republic In france
mencement OF social anarchy, opening free Held
for all kinds Of greed and envy oil kinds OF Ut0pias
and you could not under any preteXC take part IN
such baleiul enterprise. 1t Is continually and with
out any reason declared that we now live in times
when everything happens that is unexpected, and
the utmost ingenuity is displayed to find one day
an expedient to insure safety for Tomorrow. If
drawn in by the currents which tagtate it nothing
can be less uncertain than the future. We are
w ea vain 70 sstabs consong asncon be-
tween that party OF violence which promises peace
to men while declaring war against God, ana that
s objects by Indirect means, but still striving for
the same end. They differ In their language, but
they pursue che same chimera: they do not enlist
the same soldiers, but they march under the same
flag: They cannot fail to draw upon us the same
| msf0rtunes. To retain the Illusion OF an honest
| and moderate Republic after the sanguinary
| days OF June, 1S4s, and the savage deeds Of the
second "Terror,n each go murderous lor our brave
OF Providence, and to treat the lessons OF expert
ence with too much contemptY 1t Is at the moment
when France Is awakening and asserting itself by
great act OF faith that 1t is sought to impose
upon it the government which Is most mcnacing
towards Its religious liberties. 1t IS when the
necessity OF alliance is being SO imperlousy felt
that any alliance is to be rendered impossible, and
we are to condemn ourselves to fatal Isolation.
No that will not be. the Republic dsquiets inter-
ests much 8s 1t does consciences. 1t can be but

reassure all honest people. 1t is these last that !

The former manifestoes OF the Comte de Cham

has just appeared IN the form Of letter to N. de

anxieties attaching to ihe occupancy OF a throne.
1t is not possible to entertain that suppOsition any

his friends that they 'cann0t under any pretext
take part in this balcfu enterprise Never before

religious infallibity. These two orders OF ideas
are even SO mixed up In ths letter that sometimes
