M. Casimir Perier, President of the French Chamber, has made

a speech to his constituents at Troyes, said to have produced a marked effect. It seems to us a speech for the elections marked by a lingering political rancour. He accepted all the Monarchists who rally to the Republic, but said the Repub- licans must not yet admit them into the citadel, that is, office, because "it is necessary to be constitutional not only in words, but in our deeds, and even in our hopes." One "does not trust the honour of the flag to its foes of yesterday." M. Wrier, as regards Monarchists, is obviously of Douglas Jerrold's opinion that "we are all brethren, all Oahu and Abele."
