PUNCH recently expressed a wish to see
Johnson's Life of Boswell or Montgomery
review of the poems of Macaulay. Both of
the suggested works would doubtless be un-
usually lively and entertaining, and particu-
larly strong in the use of imprecatory Ian
guage. The literary public have only to re-
gret that Punch's wish cannot be realized,
but Mr.. Robert Buchanan's review of the
life and writings of Mr.. Edmund Yates, which
may be looked for any day, will doubtless go
far toward assuaging the TESTERS regret. For
Buchanan has just received from Yates the
most terrible castigation which London ever
knew one. author to give to another, the
criticism being simply case of thorough ex-
coriation. Buchanan not long since made
some severe structures upon the London
World, paper of which Yates is editor; and
Yates over his own signature and the PROM
Using headline "a scrofulous Scotch poet"
gives him infinitely more than Roland for
his Oliver. And now all London is anxious
to see Buchanan's rejoinder, and since "the
scrofulous Scotch poet" wields a vigorous
pen, and has the benefit of the impulse re-
sulting from an uncommonly strong proyoca-
tion something inordinately savage and bitter
is looked for.

The Washington correspondent of the
Boston Globe says. Messrs. Seligman, French
and Ruger of the four per cent. Syndicate
representing the firms of Belmont 6 Co.,
Selgman Brothers and the First National
Bank of New York, had an important con-
ference Thursday night at the Treasury de-
partmen with Secretary Sherman and Assis-
tant Secretary Mccormick, relative to the
final settlement of all business pertaining to
the tate of the four per cents. and to adjust
details relative to the final.payment upon
those bonds sold during the thirty days
allowed for popular subscriptions for which
final payments are to be made prior to the
10th of October amounting to over $77,000,-
600. During the conference the financial
outlook was discussed and the members of
the Syndicate expressed great confidence in
the continued sale of the four per cent. bonds
of which description of securities more have
been sold to this date or within period of
four months than of any previous loan ever
offered by the Government. The bonds were
disposed of at the rate of $19,000,000 per
month or $200,OO0.O 600 per year, which is
fully as many bonds as can be handled by the
Treasury and Syndicate without largely in
creasing the clerical force. The five per cent.
loan was great drug in the market at first,
and for four months-from May to Septem-
Der l. 107l-only $62,OOO,OOO were sold. Af-
ter September the national banks subscribed
largely and deposited five-per-cents to secure
their bank circulation. OF the feur-and-a-
halfper-cent. bonds only $60,000,000 were
sold during the first four months aud
ten days. The amount of four-per-cents
mentioned were really sold within thirty days
though the settlement extends over period
of four months.

Sunday in France,

Frenchmen cling to their bad custom of
holding elections on Sunday, and tomorrow
France expresses her opinion of MacMahon's
pretensions. On this side the water we
await with intense interest the result of the
contest between the Republicans and the Re-
actionists, and heartily hope that for once
the truth of the adage, "the better the day
the better the deed" will be strikingly DEM
onstrated by the choice of full four hundred
Republicans to the national legislature of
France. The hope for the success of popular
government seems well-founded, for French
men haveimade great progress in the man.
agement of free institutions within the last
few years and have prospered so well, under
parliamentary rule that they should have
little mind to return to absolutism.
The canvass has been an exciting one, and
has, in addition to its good influence in fur
thering the Republican cause, been an in-
strument of benefit as educating the people
in their political rights and duties and fa-
miliarizing them with the forms of free gov
ernment, the advantages of organization and
the methods of political parties. The Re-
pubicans have gained confidence as the cam
paign has progressed, and have steadily made
converts despite the arbitrary measures taken
BY MacMahon and his ministry against them.
The government has put in action all the
machinery of absolutism in order to defeat the
popular will, but the general opinion is that it
has weakened instead of strengthening its
cause by muzzling the press, and prosecuting,
Inning and imprisoning the Republican lead.
ers. Intelligent and liberal Frenchmen
perceive that it has thrown itself into the
arms of the Bonapartists, and they have no
mind to assist in the restoration of dynasty
which has so deeply disgraced France. Yet it
must be borne in mind that the power of the
clergy is exerted for the government, and that
clerical influence is still strong in the rural
districts. The Napoleonic legend, too, has not
entirely faded out of the minds of the peas
antry. These two influences combined may
be strong enough to overcome the arguments
OF the intelligent citizens of the large towns,
but such an outcome to the contest is not
probable. The total registered vote is $780,
COO. Probably not less than 5000, 900 will be
polled, and of this number the Republicans
confidently count on two-thirds. Unless the
government succeeds by the exercise OF arbi-
trary power in making the election a farce
and swindle this hope will be realized.
The result of a Republican triumph no one
can foretell. Gambetta says that MacMahon
must either submit or resign soumettre on
demettre as he epigrammatically phrases it.
That however is not certain. The course OF
the Marshal-President depends upon the
temper of the army. If he finds that the
troops can be trusted to follow him he will
disregard the popular will and the acts of the
new Chamber. But there is great reason to
believe that the army is in sympathy with
the people, and will refuse to bear arms
against them,
