MAID md MARSHAL.

In spite of doubter, cynic, and materialist,
there is no heroic form in all history so pure,
beautiful, and inspiring as that whitcst lily
"on the shield of France" Jeanne Dare. Her
approaching canonizatiOn by the Church of
Rome, which rumor reports, will simply con-
firm the sanctity which the common people of
France bestowed upon her four centuries ago.
On the Sth of May, 1929, she raised the siege
of Orleans, and that day has ever since been
observed as provincial festival. Once in seven
or eight years a grand agricultural exhibition
is held at the same time. The two combined,
n fortnight ago, gave Marshal MacSlahon a
substantial reason for visiting Orleans.
Every such occasion in France, just now, is
curiously watched as a straw to show which
way the wind blows-or. indeed, whether there
be any wind. The newspapers are filed with
reports and reflections, some of which would
be amusing at any other time. The Marshal
President was received with a salute of 101
guns-but the church-bclls did not ring the
population crowded in immense numbers to
see hlm. in perfect silence-but they all un-

covered as he passed; Bishop Dupanloup made
an address at the door of the Cathedral-but
he smoke of the past and future rather than
the present state of France. Although the
Bisbop uttered no word which could give
otfense. or which directly expressed lack OF
confidence, the melancholy and depressing
tone of his speech seems to have been gener-
oIlv noticed. In view of the breaking out oi
the irrepressible conflict in France, when we
cbronicled in THE TRIBUNE month ago, the
mood of such distinguished prelate becomes
a matter for grave speculation.
But so far as the people of Orleans are con-
cerned. the Marshal could not expect to take
precedence of the Maid. On the Sth OF May,
even the Madonna is forgotten, and everybody
nrovs TO st. Jeanne Dare. Only strangers 10
the city could be surprised that the respectful
welcome given to the head of the Republic
sbould be so silent. A correspondent OF a Paris
manor sends an interesting illustration OF the
political temper of the people. He inquired OF
a number of groups why they did not shout,
and the invariabe answer was: But why
:. should we shout Vro la RlpubliqueY The

is sometimes gleat deal more expressive than

the oecretary Oh tne navy.
A criticism from Gen. Banks is expected to
display the absurdites of the Naval bill. 1t
appears to be almost as blundering measure
as the Post-Office bill But though it may be
fathercd by equal ignorance, the Naval bill
has many features of merit, although some OF
its minor provisions may somewhat deraDgc
the service and inconvenience the officials !;
while the bill which stops the fast mail trains
will infct great and direct public injury.
Arrangements are nearly completed for shut
ting the doors of q centennial safe, not to De
opened for hundred years. Before the por-
tails are closed there are several types OF the
present era that might to good advantage be
put inside; such, for instance, as the Essex
statesman, the nominee of the Ohio Demo-
cratic Convention, Sergeant Bates, and Senator
Spencer But probably the safe is too small to
hold all that could be proftably spared to fill it.

Count Andrassy speaks hopefully of the
work of the Berlin Conference. He declares
that the peace of Europe shall not be dis
turbed, that the Imperial Powers are in accord
and that Austria has no intention of occupy
ING herzegovina. The insurgents, he adds are
ready to accept the proposed reforms, and de-
sire only guarantees for their execution" This
announcement is important, but betrays the
Ovcr-confdence the Austrian Chancellor has
hitherto manifested. Until the Porte has given
ample guarantees" and the insurgents are
satisfied with them, peace must be distant.
In Cuba the Spring campaign is ending with
the Spanish assurances completely falslied.
The insurgents are acting on the offensive III
the central department, where they are stea-
dily encroaching upon districts hitherto
deemed secure from their attacks. While the
Cubans are thus aggressive and defiant, the
Government is trying vainly to meet the war
expenses. The attempt to collect an income
tax of 80 per cent having failed, Gen. Jovei-
lar purposes increasing the export duty on
suror and leaf tobacco. This will, of course
press heavily on the planters, while 1t VIII
