Victor Hugo to accept no correction of his blunder cbout the "Firth of Forth," the unswerving resolve to maintain his opinion against all evidence and all representation, simply be cause it was m opinion, is eminently cnarao terislio of the French "litterateur," of whom omniscience is the creed. A story is told of tha diHtintmiBhed author of the "Consulate and the Empire" which strikingly illustrates this trait, and shows that tho statesman was not inferior to the novelist in Belf-suftioiency and obstinacy. While writing the history of the First Napoleon, it was stated, with a eer tnin Khow of intension, bv the press that M. Thiers, in his zeal for perfect accuracy la de tail, would make ft personal visit to ftU the great battle-fields of tho French arms before entering upon a description of the engage ments. This reasxuring paragraph was a great comfort to those readers who care for strict adherence to truth in detail, and to such Btndents of military history as de sire profitable information. One of the earliest of these visits was made to Zurich, and the Landemann of the province was fiuly advised from Geneva to hold himself at the great man's disposal and afford him "every assistance and information in his power. Re solved to obey his instructions to the letter, the Landemann road himself np in the battle of Zurich, studied the whole strategy that preceded it, leamt every dotail of the con flict, and made himself as familiar with the locality as he was With his own garden. At length M. Thiers arrived, and the worthy Prefect received him with all fitting honors and accompanied him to the field. "Hal" cried the groat historian, "noit ty ommc. This is the battle-ground of Zurich V" "Yes, Monseigneur. It was from that defilo yonder the first battalions of Korsukoff's division defiled, and here, whore we are now stand ing, stood Massona's staff;" while with all the readiness of preparation he went on to show how each portion of the field was occupied. II. Thiers turned his back to the scene, and, takiug a field-glass from his pocket, directed his view towards the mountain range to the westward. "I see the Jnng-Frnu," cried he at last, with seeming enthusiasm. "Non, Monsiour. Tho Jung Frftu is far away to the south, and' not visible from here," mildly remonstrated the Prefect. JNimportel 1 see it: there it is! "Par don, Monsieur; but I should be sorry to leave you in such an error. The Jung-Fran is com pletely out of sight." "I don't care for that; I have an admirable telescope, and that is the Jung-Fran;" and so saying ho turned on his heel and left the Landemann to fight his bat tle of Zurich for himself, fully satisfied that if the Jung-Frau was not in sight it ought to have been.
