place to-day. each Of which, without the
Others. would have sufficed to electrify
France. All coming together. interest was
diffused, and no convulsion thus far Is ap-
pretended. One was the landing Of Major
Marchand at Toulon. The second was the
speech of General Herve and the proceed
ings generally In the Paris Court of Assizes,
where the Deroulede-Habert trial is going
on. The third was the conclusion of Judge
Ballot de Beaupres report on the Dreyfus
case read by him before the Court Of Cas-
sation.
Major Marehand is hailed as a hero by all
the enemies OF the Republic. He Is con-
trasted by them with the foreign minister.

oda matter Is stigmatized as cowardice. To
pay ovations to Marchand Is at once to let
loose anglophobe feeling, and to belitte the
Republic. He was educated by religious or

It may oe that, being man of humble

the army and the Legion of Honor and to

The main feature of the Deroulede trial is
the attempt being made to use IL to blacker
