The reception of Mr. Kruger at Marseilles, so long and
assiduously, prepared, by _the Clericals and Reactionaries of France, came off, after several disappointments :Caused by weather, at 11.30 on Thursday. A vast crowd assembled and heartily cheered the old man, and the officials called on him, but the disturbances expected did not occur. Mr. Kruger, who does not know any language but his own, responded through an interpreter to addresses praising his struggle againsfmis- guided England, in a short speech consisting practically of the assertions that the British were barbarians, that they had refused arbitration, that they burned houses, and that though human justice, might fail he counted on the justice of God. A Zulu would reply .that the ex-President is now witnessing proof of that justice. The reception showed the considerable feeling which exists in France against Great Britain, but we see in-it no ground for national complaint.

Mr. Kruger, however, his still to be received in Paris, and Paris, though not less .ex. citable than Marseilles, is a weightier city.
