NEW YORK HERALD friday 2a ls77-w1TH SUPPLEMENT-

votes the most serious attention 10 the further de-
velopment OF matters In France, and TO symptoms
OF any connection Affairs there may have with the
international Society, and especially with the cler
cal policy. The eagerness with which the French
sends assurances or peaceful intentions
cannot remove the distrust attaching 70 the inau-
ences and circumstances under which the change
OF Cabinet was brought about. The mixture OF or.
!eanism with Citramontanism In tue new govern
ment Is most suspicious"

TRAITORS TO FRANCE.
The French reacttonsts are not yet satisfied with
the damage they have done their country. Like
beasts that have tasted blood. they howl
for moro victims Not satisfied with the
slaughter Of projects they want s,ll
more reactionary Cabinet. Love OF place has evi-
IDENTITY killed every sentiment OF patriotism. The
e9tImst and clerical newspapers continue TO express
q desire for the modification Of tho Cabinet in con-
iormity with thcir views.
GRAM OF COMFORT.
The Aoniteur states that Prince HoheuIohe, the
German Ambassador, and President MacNahon re-
Gently had most friendly and reassurng conversation

Is too apparent While words Of polite reinsurance
being exchanged In Paris thsee German legions

Spain 10 not yet dono with her communists, or a.
they prefer 70 call themselves cantonalsts Tho gov.
esnuent has been for some time watching their

handed to the judicial authorier The arrests created
come excitement, and in order to reassure public
opinion the Minister Of the Interior stated in the Con-
srsss to-day that the arrest OF Cantonallst con-
spirators was Of no political importance. II the
prisoners opinions to BE- asked they probably
would not agree with those Of the Minister.

The Chinese are somewhat alarmed at the action OF
the Spanish government in ordering tho Spanish
squadron to assemble In China seas the Chinese
government has ordered ships from tho Foochow
arsenal to Takao to guard against descent on the

Coole traders to increase their Infamous traffic in
human beings II Is we'll known that this Cooe trade
Is little better than the African slave trade which 1t
has replaced.
