TALK OF FRENCH ALLIANCE,
France Would Have Friendly
Treaty With the United States.

Paris. July 6-Kecent references in tin,
Fairs paper TO the Fl nco-American dem
onslTation of friendship have clearly shown
That an alliance between the Republics is
seriously considered.
The Figaro is the latest journal to take
I'd the idea. 1t suggests, in an important
leading article, that the bonds between the
two cnrntrisS hs drs YIN still closer than
they are at present by means of treaty
OF commerce After pointing out that
American sympathy for France was much
weakened by the Mexican War and by
the attitude OF the Imperial Government
during the Civil War, the writer says that
the situation has been much improved for
some time past, as IS evidenced by the
warm expressions of friendship at the IN
yelling of the Washington and Lafayette
monuments.
Here them" he explains "is a new alli-
ence, based. not on written treaties. but
on a community of sympathies. not on tina
eventualities OF a war to be faced In COM
mon against n third Power. but on q move
dence between two great nations.
Reference is then made to the announce
ment OF Mr.. Chamberlain. British Secretary
of State for the Colonies. OF political ALI
ance, and the article concludes;
DO not let us fail into the same errors Of
appreciation and Judgment as have the
English. All we are able 10 obtain from the
United States is a disposition on the part ~
the Government and people 20 consider 'hs
French Republic sister Republic. whose

dice. and whose intellectual Influence will
