WE transfer to the columns Of
the HERALD from the Sigver State,

the remarkable utterances of Sena-
tor Sharon to reporter Of that

OF that minister Of war of Louis

nothing so brutal from the lips of a

strong government and for the
dominance of mere money, is at no

Sprung himself from the humblest

he presumes to employ language
which Bismarck, "ths Prince Of

use. 1t is safe to say that public
man who, twenty years ago, had
expressed himself as Sharon does,
would find the United States too
hot q country to live in. Flown
with wine, perhaps, and taken of
his guard, we have in these curt
and ferocious outgivings of man
who has had merely the knack OF
