A Grotesque Idea.

NJ. Leonce Dupont, in his curious and
piquant "Souvenirs Of the Republic, "
mentions a number Of the grotesque
folk who swarmed i'm the ante-chambers
of the Government of Defense at Bor-
deaux and Tours. One day, for in
stance, Admiral Fourichon was inter-
viewed by druggist sent by La Ligue
du Midi, who thus addressed him:
"Citizen, you are doubtless acquaint-
ed with the properties of vaccine virus ?
IL preserves man from smallpox; but,
alas we have occasion TO remark
among the poorer classes a culpable in
difference 10 avail"
"Well9m
"Well, why does not the Government
take advantage Of the existing war to
remedy this deplorable state Of thingsP"
"How?"
"Let me explain. With those senti-
ments of humanity which should pos
sess a Republic even in its dealings with
its foes, why should the Government
not ordain that the arms Of its soldiers
be dipped in bath of vaccine? With
out doubt the Germans would agree to
reciprocity in this good work, and thus
the sabre or bayonet, while wounding
an enemy, would insure him forever
against a fatal and loathsome disease"
