    THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPII PHILADELPHIA, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 18, 1870.
VILLAGE POLITICS IN FRANCE.
While every gamin in Taris ia Bhouting
'Vive la Hepubliquel" graver heads are
anxiously asking themselves "How long is
the republic likely to live?" And this, it
must be remembered, is no longer a question
that depends simply on the mobility of the
gamin of i'aria or the humor of the Faubourg
St. Antoine. If the later Nap leonism has
done nothing else, it has freed Franco from
the denpotism of its capital and greater
towns. Prefect and prieHt have for the last
twenty years been busy teaching the peasant
proprietor of the country that the safety of
the nation lies in their hands, and the peasant
Las learned a lesson so flittering to
Lis pride with very natural avidity.
He is quite conscious that it was
lie who, in the teeth of "lhonn gentlemen of
Paris," placed the Emperor on the throne,
nud that it was Lis emphatic "Yes"' in ple
biscite afttr plebiscite which retained him
there. "Wit b what sort of favor be is likely to
regard, when once war has ceased to absorb
bis whole attention, a revolution whichsprings
out of a sliet-t row, And a Government which
consists simply of the deputies of Tarn, it is
not very riiflicult to guess. lut it is far
harder to say in what way the poasant will
regard the question of the uepublic itself,
me until is, we know
next to nothing of
the condition or the
Fiance. The peasant
sympathies of rural
is nowhere au easy
reullv acquainted
person to become
with, and the French
peasant is the least
easy of all. Jle is far pleasanter to talk to
k than his Fnglibh namesake, but he is just as
ciistru&tiul. He has a sort of auirual secrecy
and wariness, and in the presence of men of
better station and education than himself,
elihough ho is quite ready to display a demo
cratic consciousness of eqnality which would
V be odd on this side of the Channel, he has all
me caution and reticence of instinctive fear.
JJook.s help us very little indeed; nine out of
ten Frenrh nnvpls tiAvnr nl.ir I10v.mil tho Pa.
J risian boulevards, and the few that do, with
one illustrious exception, either confine them-
L stives, like 15alzac, to couutry towns, or in
v vent imaginary scenes of country innocence
and repose. Perhaps ; the one person who
knows the French peasant best is the English
man who wanders from village to villao with
K kcapsack on Lis back.
bat fctnties such a stranger most in the
village population is its terrible ignorance.
With Geiiuttny and Switzerluud on one Bide
of it, with England on the other, the edaca-
f tionai Mancaru ot nance is almost as low as
1 tbat of Spain or Southern Italy. Among the
p fa,io i,r.i 1..,.,.. r. t ,. 1 1 1 1,
tuai rno iiiwoi. oiaiuuu i no uciuiuuo 111
the present war is the inability of half the
.prisoners they have taken to read or write.
JUany even ot tho oflicers cannot sign their
own nnmep. Put any one who has penetrated
much into the rural life of France knows that
V this is only a fair indication of the educa
tional stale ot the country. JSo doubt ellorts
have been luude of late, especially under the
administ ration of M. Duruy, to cope with
this mass of ignorance; and M. Jules Simon
Lbs done mora than justice to the energy
shown by ti e Imperial Government. Schools
have been built and the number of teachers
greatly increased, but the quality of the in-
st ruction given remains as wretched as ever.
I he wretched pittance given to the school
master would counteract the good intentions
of a thousand Ministersof Public Instruction.
Simply to procure bread, the wretohed do
minie has to eke ont his lining by acting as
clerk to the .souc-prefet, if ho is settled in a
country town: or if in a village, by serving
as bell-ringtr, acolyte, church-sweeper to the
priest. TUe value of the instruction given
S can easily be oonjectured. That it has failed
or the supeibtitions of the peasant may be
judged f n 111 the complaints of the priests
themselves. In a parish of the South it is
the usage to present to the cure
certain wooden images, bearing the
names of suinls, but whose form shows
them to be hgures of the older
geds of LeatLeuibiu, which become by his
benediction sovereign charms against certain
bodily ailments. One parish priest of late
years threw them boldly into the fire, but an
epidemic u Lieu broke out among the cattle
brought Lin 1 to Lis senses,and the custom was
Mrestoied. His successor was more resolute,
fllle burned the images, and nearly paid for
uie act Mt!i ins lite, ibe parish rose against
bini, and Le Lad to take refuge in a compro
mise. He procured figures of the saints them
S'
selves, a In tie more artistically earned, but the
0 peasants declared they were good for nothing,
and ret used Mm ail supplies tor the reparation
of Lis obnrch. As a rule, however, the cure
coatents hiiuoelf with a silent protest against
the groster ignorance around him. He ia
himself a pem-ant, the son of a peasant; and
bis slender stipend of some i0 or 00 a year
makes him upendent on tho offerings of
Lis flock. lie shares their prejudices, and
bis exclusively ecclesianticai training has
raised him little above their own level of
culture. We remember chatting with a Nor
man priest beneath the shadow of one of the
grandest minsters in France on the subject
of English religion. - He was proud of his
knowledge of the subject, and it amounted
to this, that the "eglise natiocale" was "Pro
testante Mttbodistique." From thiB position
it was impossible to move him; he had once
been to 1'aiis, and at the Exposition he had
kseen a Methodist chapel, and his mind was
made up. 1 bat there are learned men among
the French clergy we do not deny; that there
are men of the highest holiness is plain from
such! an instance aa that of - the Cure
Kd'Ara: and the political power they exercise
h over their (locks is unquestionable. But, as
a rule, tbe tone ot the peasant towards his
cure is that of good-humored contempt.
"What is that building ?" we remember ask
ing a country hostess in Pioardy, as we
pointed to a 'huge edihee by the side of the
Church ot M. ltiquier. ''It ia nothing but
k'une pepinieie de pretres,' " she replied, witk
a smue. a ciass bo regarded is necessarily
incapable of exercising any great infiuenoe
for the improvement of the country, but it
does not follow that it is destitute of power
when it plvys on the prejudice and ignorance
around it. And just now the temptation to
play on tLeru is very strong indeed. The
ordinary cure has but two iutarests in the
world liome end his stipend. Home ia Lis
religion; his stipend ia his bread. For these
lie is quite prepared to right to the death,
and the inuouncement of a republic is a
threat to both. If he has let the Emperor
fall bo quietly, it is in a great measure be
cause, iu will, drawing the bulk of bin troops
from liome, be believes tne i..uiperor to have
betiaved the Pope, but a reubrcan gov
ernment ia certain to be indifferent to the
fate of the l ope and the Papacy.
What comes still more home to the priest ia
the danger to bis actual livelihood. The ab
solute separation of Church from State, no
long advocated by M. Iouu Uuuc, is now
the accepted creed of the llpnblicm party.
If they remitiu in power, they are pledged to
annul the rk of the First Napoieon in eola.
sitstical as iu civil matters. 15ul there is not
la priest in France that will not make a fight
ifor LU ' i'.'o a jc;-r. In kutL a conlc.-,t li
ull depend on the view be can induce the
peasant to take of his own risk from the
republic.
Active political preferences the
peasant has none. To his monoto
nous life of labor the substitution of
one ruler for another makes very little
difference indeed. Here and there, as in
Champagne, the "Napoleonic legend" still
flourishes, just as Orleanism survives in the
commercial townn; but the peasant will not
expend a son for the Imperial dynasty any
more than the merchant will raise a hand for
the Count of Taris. Vhat, however, Napo
leonic has done for his political education
is to arouse in his mind an intent aversion to
being governed by the towns. Power has for
twenty years rested on the votes of the.
peasantry, and the peasant can hardly like to
see Lis work overthrown by an emcut'e in the
streets. A Republic means the rule of the
shopkeeper, and he hates and envies the shop
keeper. Above all, it is "a government of
lawjers," and mesbc-d, as he very commonly
is, in lawsuits and mortgages, he re
gards the lawyer as his natural foe.
And here he finds himself at one with the
sympathies of a class which has still a per
ceptible influcnco on rural opinion the legi
timists. Ihe shabby young marquis who
lounges along the shore of some little Breton
wateiing place is utterly powerless to obtain
what he likes; but it by no means follows that
he is powerless to destroy, or at least to in
duce others to destroy, what he does not like.
The empire was partly of his own making.
In his eyes it was a mere usurpation, of
course; a mere continuance of the regime of
iniquity and fraud which had robbed him and
Lis ancestors of their rents since '8!. But
Btill he never repented having helped to make
it. In the first place, it made Paris brighter
and pleasanter, and his month's fling in Paris
is the holiday for which the young marquis
scrapes and starves during the rest of the year.
And, in the second place, its hand lay very
heavily on the classes who robbed him and
his, the bourgecide and the ouvrier, tho
Dantons, and Marats, and llobespierres, of
whom he believes the republican party to
be composed. He could pardon very much
to the man who had to a certain extent
avenged Lis wrongs, and whohas beon clever
ccough to trample under foot the democracy
that had ridden over the necks of his ances
tors. This was what the marquis meant when
Le took his cigarette from his lips and as
sured you that the Emperor was "tres-intel-ligent."
To a legitimist of this sort the pro
clamation of a republic is simply the getting
rrp again of a foe -a horn he had for the last
twenty years Been on the ground with im
mense satisfaction. He can hardly help being
iiiitatcd, and, slight as his direct influence,
is, Le can manage in some degree
to communicate Lis irritation to the peasant.
TLo old jealousy of tho aristocracy which
caused the rejection of He Tocqueville in
18-18 by the farmers ef his village, on the
ground that Le was "a noble," Las pretty well
died away, and if the balance of opinion in
tie country districts once really wavers, the
bitterness of tho Legitimist party may tell
fatally sgninst the republic. But, if it wavers
at all, it will hardly waver for political rea
son p. The life of the peasant is chained to
Lis bit of land; Le is a proprietor, not a poli
tician. Proclamations about a federation of
He Latin peoples, declamations against the
j enalty of -death, the rhetoric of Victor nugo,
tie logic of Jules Favre, are all without the
slightest meaning or interest to hiai. So long
as those gentlemen of Paris like to amuse
themselves with these, he is not likely to stir.
So long as Lis bit of land is safe, republic
or empire is alike to Lim. But for twenty
j eers Le has been assiduously taught that a
republic means peril to property. To him
tLe red flag means pillage, and, though Clatn
bet ta has managed for the moment to put it
aside, it waits its turn to supersede the tri
color. Louis PJano is a polished and gen
tlemanly man to those who have had the
pleasure of his acquaintance in London, but
the peasant of France has not had that
pleasure, and to him the reappearance of
Louis Llano means the reappearance of (Jom
muLiFm. The elections fer the Constituent
Assembly will soon let us see in what temper
the French villager regards the new insti
tutions of Lis country. But it would be
a great mistake to suppose, as has lately
been supposed, that the similarity of the
last revolution to its predecessors means that
Peris is still France, and that her political
convictions will impose themselves on the
country. Paris, fighting the enemy, is sim
ply allowed to fight him in her own way; but,
lighting once over, the natural relations of
things can hardly fail to be restored, and the
Fiench statesman will have to look for the
solution of its administrative problems, as
during the empire, in its village politics.
