Arrests Not Likely to be Made in the
Fall River Smuggling Case.

A treasury agent is at Fall River, Mass, In

BILE to the amount OF S225. There IS no duty
or the gum. The cars in which the gin and
gum were found contained sixteen tons OF
hay, and this is also held. The stuff will
probably be sold at auction.

work to secure enough evidence to make an
arrest. The eases of gin were marked u.

Revival of Napoleonlsm

In the letter which we published
yesterday from NJ, K. Masseras, oul
Paris correspondent, there was 8
striking passage on the recent pJpu
lar reaction in France toward Ma
poleoDlsm, and the possible politl
cal outcome of it.

Of Alsace and part of l. ,raine,
Frenchmen, it seemed, had entirely
forgotten what had b4en the from
tiers of their country in the culminat-
ing hour of the first empire, aud
that the Napoleonic eagles had
flown victorious over Lisbon and
Madrid over Naples, r me,
Turin, Milan, and Venice
over Brussels and the Hague; over
Munich and Dresden; over Berlin,
Vienna, and Moscow in short, over

ten the absolute peace, security, and
order which prevailed with
in French territory under the
strong arm of the man who
had himself witnessed the Reign of
Terror, and who gazed back upon
its scenes of anarchy, violence and
bloodshed as upon an evil dream.
But, inasmuch as history is history,
and cannot be rewritten to
suit the vagaries of the
day, it WAS inevitable
that the Indifference to the services
aud splendors of the Napoleonic
reign would pass away, and that
the ardor of reawakened sympathy
would in time become proportlonate
to the virulence and injustice of
proceeding detraction aud neglect.

THE death of Lord Justice Cole
ridge recalls some circumstances
growing out of his visit to Chi
cago several years ago, when he was
given banquet by leading men,
bers of the Chicago bar, and when he
gently but firmly intimated that the
gush about the greatness of the self
putting Anglo-Saxon was not alto
gether pleasing to him. The fact is,
as it was then pointed out, Coleridge
was more Celt than Saxon. He was
proud of the fact, as are most of the
West Country English, particularly
those Of Devonshire and Cornwall
He maintained that the British civ
ilization was Celto-Saxon rather than
Anglo Saxon, and he inspired a
notable array Of young literary men,
including Conan Doyle and CUTLER
Couch with that idea. That inspi-
ration has also had its effect in the
later writings of Thomas Hardy, and
r.. ID. Blackmore Lord Coleridge
himself possessed literary abilities OF
a high order. His tribute to a .po-
litical pponent-Lord Iddesleigh-
printed few years ago in Macmil.
lan's Magazine, is regarded as an
English classic. Other contributions
are also Of high literary merit.
