THE ANTI-ENGLIsH HATRED
dying out, the heather continue to rage
with kind of virgin freshness. There
is method in all this madness. The
ministerial journals lead this pack, while
surprising in out-bursts of passionate
inanities, the herd. III. Ferry must ex-
cuse English people accepting his in
cense, in presence of this chronic mud
thrOwing-thiS haunting with the license
of ink. The radical journals protest
against such scandal-but in vain.
When the Debats, by the pen of John
LemOine, a Senator, an Academician,
and the leading journalist in France,
calls the British, "toad-eaters, what

RANK JEALOUSY
is at the bottom of all this discreditable
policy, coupled with the smarting, that
England views the bow-wow programme
with the most disdainful indifference.
Opportunism, in fact, is getting to its
last legs. The ministerialists are not
happy family, and are trying all shifts
to be able to face the general elections
and cover their blunderings. Thus from
free-traders, they have become prOtec-
tiOniStS; they have permanently alienat-
ed England, at whose mercy lies the
colonial glory of France, and they have
descended to discuss the conditions of
aid from the victor, who is simply laugh

think there is a profounder reason still
for the blunders France is now COM

FRANCE HAS NEVER RECOVERED
from the diplomatic imbecilities of
Napoleon III. After the struggle at
"Koniggratz, ~ Europe found that a new
power of the first magnitude had
sprung into existence, and that for the
future no international policy could be
adopted without regards for its wishes.
In former times, France was surround
ed by a large family of small nations,
who were dependent on her for protec-
ton. Itwas by assisting these, by turns,
that she upheld her supremacy. In an
evil day for this supremacy, but Salutary
for Europe, Napoleon Ill. embraced
the doctrine of great races. Two keen
disciples saw its advantage: Cavour, OBJ
tanned a powerful kingdom for Savoy
and Nice, and Bismarck, by fooling
simply Napoleon's ambition, secured,
first the headship of Northern" Ger
many. And when Rouher, when Theirs,
when Latour boosted that the States of
Southern Germany were still free
for France to protect, Bismarck replied,
by simply publishing the treaty, already
six months old, by which the Southern
States bound themselves to accept the !
lead of Prussia. The unlawful /!
