received and respected by many distin-
guished men both in England and France

OPP in the most cordial manner. His labors

Is not unlikely that the masses of the
Republican party may do as they did in

garbled this paragraph by printing the first
sentence of it and parading this paper in
the false attitude Of declaring that lack
of great wealth necessarily means narrow
ness. The News has been highly success

furnishing fully good an example as
