the price of peace.
This humiliatioa he's rankled in the
breasts Of Freedmen ever since With
the buoyant spirit Of the race, the Freoch
had no sooner obtained peace than they
set to work to rebuild their shattered
State, to make up for their financial
losses, to re0rgauize their broken ant de-
fested army, and to fortify their capital
and their frontiers nearest Germany.
All these movements were jea:nusly
watched from Berlin. The Germans saw
that, although the French said nothing,
and made no threats, deep down in their
hearts they nourished spirit of revenge.
They could not but recognize that
France was Fastening to grow strong
again, that she might be able to snme
day attack Germany, and recover her
lost provinces and her old position As .
great military State.
The recovery of France from the dis
asters of 1870 has been even moro rapid
than she herself could have foreeeen.
She is no longer strained for money; the
enormous idemnity forced from her by
Germany was paid before it was due; her
trade has been active and profitable, her
government has been economical; she
has been for the most part free from po-
army has been 90 far restored to its old
strength that it 10 doubted whether she
might not even now cope successfully
with her inveterate foe.
Not long ago, the veteran Won Moltke,
the chief of staff of the Prussian Army,
to whom was due, more than to any
other single man, the great victory q
1870, called attention to the recovered Wig
or of France in the Prussisn Parliament.
He told the deputies that they must
vote more money for military purposes,
that large garrisons must be put into
Metz and other fortresses bordering upon
the frontier, and that France was get
ting so strong that she must be prepared
for and ceaselessly watched. The for
tress of Metz has therefore been rein
forced; and Prince Bismarck has since
declared that the recent change If min
istry in France has increased German
suspicious of her purposes.
Indeed, year or two ago Germany
tried to pick q quarrel with France, Sec
ing that she was recovering too rapidly,
and that it was best to whip her again
before she got too strong; but the Car
of Russia interposed, and persuaded his
uncle, the Emperor William, from this
design.
Now, Germany fears that, if she goes
into the Eastern War, France will attack
her from behind; and France fears that,
if she abandons position of strict neu-
trality, Germany will seize the advantage,
and attempt once more to humble her,
a. in 1870, in the dust.
This mutual suspicion and Jealousy Of
the two nations may, Therefore, have .
good result. It may serve to keep then
out of the Eastern difficulty, and thus
prevsst the war from being sgeneral one
throughout Europe. And 1t 10 to be
hoped that time, which heals oil wnunds,
may heal this hostility between Frasce
and Germany. and they may In yesn to
cone live side By side - frieadly
nsighbon.
