It proves the old truth that the French must have a personality. It is a man, not an idea, that leads them. Boulanger has the fate of France in his own will. He has carried Paris, and that is France. Behind him are the apparently incohesive elements of the Endowment ona b —- ~oe Poli- iN Ponto “ae Saitveaileand 6,000 $14,630.744 00 ei + policies royalists, the Bonapartists, the Orleanists, the for... $68,372,882 00 Panama stockholders, and the speculators of powanp M. NEEDLES President. the bourse. Whether he can make all these dress front and keep step in the empty cause of Boulangerism is to be seen. Every ond imagines that there will ultimately be a political revolution and war with Germany. The dance is certainly a merry and mad one. What the end can be no one knows. Boulanger may keep the French army in its well-equipped condition as a menace to preserve peace with Germany. That would be wise. He may in his much-talked-of revision reduce the senate to a more democratic basis, That might also be wise, But the consensus of expectation entertains neither of these discre- tions. Of Boulanger the French expect the evangelism of revenge. The old injury on the Rhine still rankles. It inspires one surprise after another and envelopes that of yesterday. Pen nor tongue can tell what France may be in atwelvemonth. Louis Napoleon appealed to Paris as Boulanger has and in less than six months he was elected president and the coup @etat became the possibility of the hour. The French are repeating themselv as seo.

Srar at the time referred to have received high judicial sanction in the city of New York; and the principles thus legally established are so pertinent and important thatthe decision is given in full in another column for the benefit of the large number of persons in Washington directly or indirectly interested in the subject. We bespeak for it a careful and thoughtful reading. ———— A striking illustration of English ignorance of American afia \d history is furnished by the article on “War” in the new edition of the Encyclopedia Britannica, just published. It is written by Col. Maurice, presumably, from his being selected for this special service, a high English authority on military history. He falls into the singular and unpardonable blunder of saying that during the late civil war in this country the northern cavalry rode on the many highways of the south on carts and on bicycles and tricycles. If the author referred to wounded cavalrymen, he may not be so far out of the way in the matter of the carts; but, as an historical truth, bicy- cles were not introduced into this country for more than ten years after the close of the war. Besides, what does a soldier who served in.the southern states at that time think the chances would have been for usinga bicycle on the roads of that section, if he had been the unfor- tunate owner or custodian of one? From the data furnished by a correspondent in another column it appears that both “A Veteran” and Tur Stan had overlooked the fact that a bill has already passed the Senate to provide an equestrian statue of General Zachary the reasons for it. This no merchant is com- Pelled to do,—but ours is always a plausible and reasonable one, and we're willing for our Patrons to be as well informed as ourselves.
