What They Say Of Him.
Paris, Feb. Is. - The Matin saws:
"Was he not born under a lucky star,
this man. whose whole life was moth
ing but q long success? Did he end
by believing himself destined from all
time to the summit to which he rose!
We do not wish to know if the giddi-
ness Of greatness seized him to the ex-
tent Of making him forget the humble
friends of old. Others. after all, were
as much to blame for it as he.''
The Figaro says: II don't think that
on this prematurely opened coffin will
fall a single word of hatred or con-
tempt that is really deserved. 1t is not
the death of the president that is dang
erous for the country, but the choice Of
his successor. That may bring disor-
der by exciting ambitions. Every one
will understand how decisive the day
through which we are about to pass
will be for the country"
