Frances Foreign Minister Without n Seat in
the Chnmber of Deputies.
PARIS, Feb: IN. Flourens, the Minister of
Foreign Affairs, who has hitherto had no seat In
the Chamber Of Deputies, viii contest one Of the
Bases Alpes districts. In his electoral address ne
says he trusts that France will advance In the path
Of democracy and liberty and that peace will be
maintained with due regard for national dignity.
The debate on the naval budget was begun in the
Chamber Of Deputies to-day. Admiral Krantz
slated that France was compelled to keep many
vessels at distant stations. In order to have a
sufficient force at the Governments disposal at
home 1t would be necessary to reduce the effective
force in distant seas. Under the budget the Medi-
teTranean Squadron would receive an addition of "
ironclads and the Channel neet an addition of three
ironclads. Some reduction of expenditure might
be found possible. but the question OF economy
must be well weighed before coming to a decision.
The reporter Of the Committee on Naval Esti-
mates stated that that committee concurred with
Admiral Krantz.
The Temps says II does not doubt the sincerity Of
bismarck's endeavors to maintain peace, because
peace signifies the continuance OF the territorial
status quo OF Europe. And what, 1t asks, can
Germany desire moref The Temps declines to
advert TO the superficial judgments" that the
Chancellor pronounced with regard to France.
They are, 1t says, unworthy OF q great politician.
II continues: "The foremost object of Prince
Bismarck seemed to be to make Europe aware Of the
immensely OF the military resources that Germany
places at the service OF her policy OF status quo.
The d. solution Of the three Emperors' alliance
totally lisconcerted Blsmarck's diplomacy. 1t Is
not. therefore,, to be wondered at that he felt the
need Of reassuring those who were on the verge Of
losing faith in him."

Pope Leo,s Irish sympatb,e..

DUBLIN, Feb. 2.-Archbishop MacEvlly, at the
opening Of the annual retreat in Tuam Cathedral
to-day, declared that he had authority to deny the
rumors that the Pope Is opposed to legitimate
aspirations Of the Irish people. Never, he said,
had a fouler caiumny been invented. Not IN Ire
land nor in the world was there a heart that beat
with more friendship for the Irish than did Pope
Leos. The high position Of His Holiness imposed
reserve, but he had never turned against Ireland.

 Congressman elect Greenhalge, who is generally known as repre- sentative bOurge0iSte and a church man, expressed himself as follows:
 "The universal custom has been to value thoughts and senti- ments only by the standard of the readiness with which they can be converted into dollars and cents. This tendency to yenality -pcrmeates the entire community. We are for sale, our thoughts are for sale. There are teachers, lawyers, and some men of God whose work Is rated by high salaries and the love of gain and all because the power of wealth is admired and houored be- yond all else. This lack of moral training and moral feeling is like that which caused the records Of Florentine ruins to be written while yet the sun of her genius and culture was high Tn the heavens. y

We are not men-we are but "hands, known but as valued tools: Of the base herd as cattle, pric"1 and ruled as dupes and fools. Our laws the caprice, fancy whm, of those who hold the sword Of once blind justice, shameless now, the harlot of horde Not ours to say what we desire, to tell what we most need Ours 'tis 10 take our masters choice, the leavings of their greed, 'Tis ours to toil and labor, to spend and to be spent, To pay the price of living, in taxes, profits, rent; To SOW the seed in Springtime. the har- vest full to reap, To house them for our rulers while we the gleanings keep; To live forsooth they feed Us, for we must need still live That future years of labor may their bread and butter give. Our old age knows no rest of peace, no honors our gray hairs, Fen the brows of our little children are furrowed deep with cares; We have no hope before Us to light the evening gloom, The grave K sweet, but life, cold, cheer less is our doom. Our weary, toiling millions know nanght of joys of life, The strongest pinched with struggling, the weakest faint with strife; Our babes are born in sorrow, their in heritanCe is toll, And hunger seals their feolty to the lord of wealth and soil, If we dare to breathe n murmur or to raise our feeble hands, The hordes of law and order sweep OCT Us Wltl lltli bdlthN, The priest, he prcaChcs patience, and the

 With such a heavy drain upon linn ted resources, the burthen has become too severe for our members; therefore the appeal of the Trades Council of New Haven should certainly merit the earn. earnest endeavors of the American Fed eration of Labor. FraternaIly,
