of history and philosophy are to be suppressed, as in- compatible with efficacious faith in the revelations of the Elysee ; and a special curriculum of study is prescribed for the bourgeoisie.

The first Na- poleon and his soldiers fought their way to glory; the second Napoleon and his janizaries eat their way.
