Thomas B. Gregory.

IN JUNE II. 1870. III years ago
q today,Athe national assembly Of
France decreed that hereditary
nobility could not exist in a free state;
that the titles of counts, dukes mar
quises, knights. barons. exce1encies,
ebbots and others be abolished; and
that all citizens take their family
names. 1t was further decreed that
the records of the nobility be destroyed
and, accordingly, the 600 volumes of
such records were made into a big
bonfire at the foot Of the statue of
Louis XIV.
1t was high time that such a fire
was started. for the situation in France
There were 10000 mobiles" who
owned or controlled about one-half the
land of the realm. France was like a
vast stable in which blood horses OBJ
tanned double or triple rations for do
ing nothing, while the draft horses
performed all the work on half rations,
and that often not supplied.
The people were taxed to death,
while the mobiles were practically ex-
emtp from taxation. There were taxes
on everything, roads, bridges, fords,
tow-paths, fishing; the very salt in the
peasants bread was taxed, and the
right of way along which he walked
to bury his dead.
The people were weak. pallid. stunt
ed, maltreated. despised-a class fit
only to be exploited and robbed while
the aristocracy lived in the midst Of
