CONSEQUENCES.

The French historians deplore the
progressive decline in the relative
rank Of their country among the Eu-
ropean powers during the last two
centuries. Under Louis XIV. in 100,
France with her nineteen millions of
inhabitants contained SO per cent of
the population of the three great pow
Great Britain and the Ger
man Empire. In 1889 Russia had be-
come one of the four great powers, of
which France then represented 81 per
cent. In 1915, after the Revolution
and the NapoIeonic wars, the proper
ton of France was reduced to 20 per
cent. In 1890 the admission of italy
had raised the number of great powers
10 six. and reduced to about II per cent
the part Of France with her 3S1a mil
lions. while Germany has fifty-two
millions. If the United States are
in as the seventh great power,
the proportion of France falls to 10 per
cent

FACTORS OF SITUATION.

Prof. Alexander, in dealing with the
factors of the situation, considers the
marriage rate the mortality rate"
and the cost of children; and under
the subject Of marriages he treats Of
the birth rate of France. He shows
that the mortality OF children in France
is very high, reaching 16 per cent dur
ing the first year OF age. On compar-
ing the death rate of Paris with that
of the country districts of France, it is
found that the former is about one
third higher than the latter. The prin-
cipal causes of this increased death
rate are the greater intensity of the
struggle for life, unsanitary conditions,
alcoholism and other vices.
OTHER CAUSES.
The various economic causes are
specifically set forth under taxation,
inheritance, society, education, mar
riage laws, city life, morality. female
disability, and French authors are
largely quoted from to sustain the
facts cited.
CONCLUSION.
To conclude, a disinterested specta-
tor must admit that some of the symp-
toms which We have been considering
are those of a decadent race. and that
there is ample cause for solicitude on
the part of patriotic Frenchmen. Still
we are not yet prepared to include
France in the class Of dying nations
referred TO by Lord Salisbury in a re-
cent speech.
A nation of thirty-eight million
souls, which by its agriculture. its COM
merce. and it's manufactures. is one
of the richest on the globe, and by its
activity in literature, sci
ence and art, is one Of the chief factors
in modern civilization, and which has
displayed such extraordinary recuper-
alive power under disaster, is not to be
hastily despaired of. Nor has the time
yet arrived to write "Finis est GalIiae"
