I have just been looking over one of those papers which have most signalized themselves in they crusade against good morals, and although previously condemned to pay a heavy tine, accompanied with months of imprisonment, it hag not al- tered for the better, but continues to issue its detestable writings; its coltuuns are still filled with stories as inept as they are inde- cent. It is satisfied with slightly veiling their immorality, but its pernicious influence will be as strong asbefore. Reading the journals which were first to denounce it from ptofes- sional jealousy, you would have thought from their modest airs that they were them- selves regenerated; but in spite of self-im- posed restraint, they could not keep from re- turning to their old ways the day after they had Invoked public decency against an iin- rndent rival, Nothing could better show ow general and Ceep-rooted is the evil. Let us seek toanalyze theimmediate causes ofit, Itis unnecessary to enter into a psy- chological study of the baser side of huinan nature, which has existed at all. times. We shall fix our attentionon the exceptional manifestation of mental Jibertinism, such as We see in our own day. In several epochs of history many situilar instances may be noted. In the past, one of the causes of this rage for corrupt literature has repeatedly been the repression of liberty. On the one hand, the human mind, prohibited from taking part in the stormy phases and sharing the noble pas- * sions of political life, expended its passionon the most unworthy objects. On the other hand, despotism found its best security in the development of a life of pleasure. It fos- tered such tendencies to the utmost of its wer. This is the history of the ‘oman decadence, and also our his- tory under the Second Empire. The court watched approvingly the lower- ing tone of public morality. it did nothing to check it, but rather encouraged it by its example, the still more by the facility it afforded immoral literature, In the licenso given by the commission on colportage to publications almost obscene, as proved by the scandalous catalog brought to light by one of our Senators, During the Second Empire operets and cafés-concerts flour- ished. It has already been justly observed that the Vie Parisienne was the avowed organ of this licentious literature, each of its numbers containing one of those peppery stories which are now being prosecuted, ‘The writers covered them with a certain elegant varnish by deserlbing the scenes as tgking place in drawing-roonis and bocdoirs of high life. They were no less an affront to all the laws of decency. Scandalous journalisin became one of the most paying undertakings of theday. ‘‘A tout seigneur tout honneur.” It is right to recognize the fact that the Em- pire bequeathed to our current literature a large portion of the virus which dishonors it. The Second Empire is, however, not solely to blame in this matter. We must take into consideration the immense fatigue the coun- try felt after passing through the terrible crisis of 1870 and the following years. Such vicissitudes pervert and degrade those whom they do not ennoble, This is what happened after the French Revolution: there was an unhealthy expansion of the public mind dur- ing the Directory. Lam aware that just as assasination formerly moderated Russian despotism, so this violence is in some re- spects held in check by the fatal increase of dueling: It is none the less a fact that be- fore a final arrangement of this kind it is al- lowed great immunities. Literature shows signs of this license. It may be said that the diapason of buman speech has been changed. ‘There are no longer any doubtful expressions or “risky words.” Novelists of the realistic school have advanced with rapid strides in this way with ever-increasi effrontery. Excesses of this kind h: so common that delicate-minded novelists have dared far more than they formerly would have done. They also have been sub- jected to the contaminating Influence of the surrounding atmosphero. How many times have they not introduced into charming works scenes or words which would not have been tolerated some years ago!

Thatis whatis called realisin ! Never has a more mortal injury been offered to man than this pretension to portray him truthfully whilst admitting only his inferior and at times base qualities, never taking into account his yearnings after justice or the ideal, or making allowance for the generous struggles of his conscience. When this lit- erature was found so remunerative many endeavored to render it popular. The papers which scandalize us at the present time were glad to change into current money the ingot they suw so appreciated on every bookstall. We are happy to see public opinion mani- festing itself with so much energy against this infamous literature. The French Re- public has a particular motive for becoming more severe with reference to lit y moral- ity. At the present time it is striving to dif- fuse instruction throughout the country, ‘The Governinent feels it to be a point of honor that a few years hence every French child shall know how to read.
