dent OF the Monongahela Republican,
writing from New Creek W, Va, under
date of Jan, s, gives the following &C.
count of the wonderful attachment of a
dog for his master;
Col. HAzZARD.- In the latter part OF
1863, during the Rebellion, soldier,
whose name is unknown, died near New
Creek, West Va, but papers found on his
person proved him To he from Washing
ion county. Atthe time of his death he
had u dog TO whom he was greatly at.
lalchCd. The dog followed his dead
master TO his grave, and as his comrades
were filling up his grave, the devoted
friend whined pitiously, and tried 10 get
the dirt from out the grave. Every ex-
ertion wasmade 10 get the dog away from
the grave but 1t remained lying on the
grave, only taking time enough each day
10 go and find spare mOrsel TO cat.
Even tho bitteIcst Rebels fed the dog
honoring such devoted loyalty. Il re;
mRined guarding the grave until about
one month ago when death relieved him
of his duty-haying stood devoted
watch Ornearly nine years. About TWEEN.

What He Thinks OF French Pros

m. Theirs.
NEW YORK, February 4.-The Paris
correspondent OF the World has had an
interview with Victor Hugo. In answer
to u question regarding the Commune,
Victor Hugo said:
"ln the last revolution | honor the
principles for which It was made, but
despise members Of the Commune who
compromised, by their follies and crimes
one Of the grandest popular movements
that the world has witnessed. Only think,
il the army had not been bounded on by
Thiers to stille the young Republic and to
murder her children, how easily the
vagaries Of the Commune would have
been arrested by the cooperation Of other
great towns and centers Of civilization
how thoroughly we should be laying, by
this time, the foundations of principles Of
social regeneration.
Hugo further said: ~ have no hcsi.
tency in telling you that consider Thiers
meaner spirit than Louis Napoleon.
Those who call him great statesman
know rs little OF the man rs they do OF
French history. 1t is little man and a
little mind; incapable Of learning any.
thing from the experience of the past;
incapable of conceiving liberal plan
for the future. His name will go down
to postcrity gored with the blood of the
mislcd men he massacred in the streets OF
Paris. Napoleon, lie Petit, has been sur
passed by Thiers, LetreS Petit. Tanother
Chamber were TO be elected tomorrow
Thiers' power would crumble into dust.
His home policy is to hold the sword oil
the State by the handle and give the
blade to the people. His foreign policy Is
to humor Bismarck by acceeding to all
his requests and delaying measures like
that OF compulsory military service, which
might enable us to lift up our heads again
In his conceit he may think It the first
duty Of every good patriot TO keep Thicrs
in office, but whether he be sincere or not
his government is based on corruption
and let it call itself Provisional, Republi'
can or MonArchial, Its fall Is certain
God grant that may be a false prophet
but as sure as the sun will set to.dSy, sc
sure am / that military tyrany will again
be inflicted on my pGugrc pGtrie. When
II becomes q question Of conspiracy and
underhand dealing there is but one party
who has any chance in such infamy that
OF the Bonapartists must have it all ,theil
way the Due De Dchambord Is on
anchronism; the Fleura DeLys wouli
never live in a modern French seat
The Duo dc Auuaale is a valiant sol
dier in the Republican army, but he ha!
as little chance Of the crown as he has o
being President Of the Republic, and sup
posing either to be probable, he Is not the
man 70 have any influence over the. .desti
nies Of France. There is but one man o
present in France tor whom / would vott
for the Presidency il vacant, and that mar
is Gambctta. He is a great and trul
citizen. He has proved himself a practi
clan as well as q theorist. His ideas arc
moderate, and at the same time they arr
inllexible."
