JUNE 3, 1971, To THE Eprror or tnx HeraLp:— Repugnant as itis to me to appear in the newr- papers, I cannot torbear saying a word against the continued misrepresentations of that brave Paris and its supporters for whom my brother lost his life. It is entirely false that the German liberais named in the HrraLp’s despatches to-day were “leaders of the Commune.” ‘The ‘true leaders” of the Commune were not ashamed to proclaim them- selves a3 such, and their names are to be found signed to their public papers. Tne German liberals sympathized, no doubt, with the Commune—all Uberals do—bat to say they directed its operations 1s not true. This is the last Versailles lie, launched by the still bloodthirsty assassins who sit im council there in order to bring these men under the grip of the enemies oi liberty. They seek to crush out all active republicanism from the capitals of Europe. Poor fools! They are endowing it with @ giant strength, which will one day break thetr power like a rotten twig. ‘yhe Commune Is accused of having retarded the establishment of the republic, Why, the very day that Thiers named his Ministers the UsRaLp said that the republic was Goomed, ‘That was more than Wree months azo. ‘The very moment that Thiers chose his Oricanist Cabinet aud sent his dukes and marquises—bitter encinies of ail the diferent foreign courts; the moment he sent the Viscoune d'Harcourt to tome, proving that he intended France should support the pretensions of the Pope, the Parisian Deputies Knew that there was a plot to destroy the republic. ‘the rach was @ pledging of tho government to the priesiy party, and that party ts always monarchist. ‘AS Louts Konaparte got his last picdivci:’, a8 he gob his first—by representing ‘tae empire is peace '—- go many of these Versaiists procured taelr ele tion by representing thewselves a8 devoted to we republic; bul the moment Licey were im power they | showed their hands, Paris, that voted for ihiers, thought that eighty years of disaster and revolu brought upon France through monarehieal rule had taughe even him Wisdou. Paris looked on amazed at these acis ol the old Orleanisi—whicn they might have expected, Pars saw the words “French republic’ erased trom State docu- ments and hissed at by the majority of the Assembly. ‘Lhe yreat city that had borne, tor the sake of republic, everything having the name of suffering for nearly hve montus, demanded expiana- tions.

Do you suppose that if the priests were the reai friends and comforters and defenders of the people the peo- ple would persecute them? Thiers abandoned the riests to their aie. ‘ihe murder of sixty taousand Paris republicans, undinching foes to men of his stamp, Was of more importance to him than the lives of sixty priests. If he has changed his imouarchical programme somewhat, it was solely because be was accused of plotting—accused by all Bi Europe—and felt compelled to make some half declarations m favor of the republic—deciarations which he has never supported by acts, On the contrary, when the fears of the Assembly at the terrivie aspect of atiairs 1n Paris induced them to propose according her mu- nicipal liberties, Thiers angrily threatened to resign should such a bill pass. He hari arranged his “great plan,” and the resuits are belore tne world, He has played botn the knave and the fool with his unhappy country, and the very men whose tool he has been wiil ¢: him aside. The true friends of ilberty are crush and before the earth covers their mangled bodte before the shrieks of their murdered wives an: children have yet left the air, the wretched titled bandittt begin to quarrel as to Who and how many Siall possess themselves of the prize. It is not bleeding, ruined France—her interests, her pro- gress towards true enlightment—that occupy Wien tention, only their muserabie selves—which one of them shall be a tinsetled imbectie master, and hola France to rob her, to use her and to keep her down to ignorance and priestly rule, This has been a por- tion of Thiers’ “great plan.” The other part ni. been @ human sacrifice the bare thought of whic makes the frame shudder and the heart siand sult with horror—a bloody and ludeous massacre, Which will blacken his name with infamy so long as this world lasts, and which will oae day make ail frenen men blush Lo call him countryman, No foul agsas- sin of ail the great murderers of history ever planed, provoked and punished a revolt so in- humauly @% this.

To effect that result parties have been or- ganized and whole volumes writien. But the neces- sities of the public, the satety of life and property, In a great mewropolls require efficiency as well as economy. Tho Board of Apportionment, to meet an unexpected emergency, have inaugurated a plan by which they propose to make a reduction of fifty per cent on the appropriations for or departments of the city government, aud upward If thy ducted on this redy city government abasts it ls wel payer will find reef im the burden impo: by national, State and city xation at a time when many branches of business aud trade are inactive and = appreciate It, and the class of oui ders aitected by the deduction of salaries wil fad thew princtpat consolation im mutual sympathy.
