NEW rillll.l CACTI ONS.
The 'Rob Roy on the Jordan. — By J. Mac
gregor, M. A.—The beaten highways. or., travel
that would not be endured in literature on any:
_ofthe:Old _tacks, are' Made smooth and novel
to every reader by the adventurous Scotebman
who goes about all over nature,--now on the
streams of the north,•and now on the undu-
lating backs of a line of .African fellahs, as seen
in -- thib — frontlspiece—bnating. We read hitn,
not because his is original and informing, but
• because he is canny. Good sense - and - good
. nature, without a gleam of imagination or the
higher vision, never went further. In 1867,
while the chants of the '.Egyptian cooks and
servants, and the noise of their outlandish
games, went up front the deck of the Sultan's
boat, then anchored in the seine alongside the
immense Exposition building; the Tittle Rob;
Roy, moored close by, and serving Mr. 7
Mac
gregor for Grand Ilotel and Trois Freres res
taurant, came into contact with the Orient. In:
this bo , k it meets, perhaps, some of the same •
company, and its cedar!) sides thrill to the same
uncouth harmonies, like a Cremona fantastically
played by a native musician of Cairo. Mr Mac- •
gr( goes experience commences at Alexandria,
wheie the canoe is unshipped from the Medi
terranean steamer, and where he begins to
be rather sarcastic and bitter about the
new Suez canal; just completed - by French
enterprize, where an F k uglish company of
engineers had failed some dozen years ago.
"A hole in the sand is an excellent place for
sinking capital," be says. Then he goes upon
the 4 Nile, the Zrier, the Mushra; the .Abana, the
Pharpar, the Jordan, the Banias, Galilee, the
.
Ribbon,' the Bay of Acre,--everywhere meet
-ng with odd and racy adventm'es, the result of
his peculiar mode of traveling, of his loneliness
and of his audacity and determination. lie
sketches as ho goes, and his "bits," whether
picked_ up ..aniong the -titanic- architecture of
Bashan, or-among- the wild borderers of the
Jordan, are original, however hasty; they are
not too artistic, but are "glance-able," just as
the letter-press is readable," The publishers,
by the by, - witb a frugal enterprise all their
own, have mended out the illustrations with a
large number of cuts avowedly introduced
from Thomson's "The Laud and the Book.' ,
The volume forms a capital collection of literary
_ and.artistic :whimsicalities, colored everywhere
by the shrewd individuality of the author.'-
is abundantly embellished and mapped, and
amounts to 464 royal octavo pages.—For sale
by Turner & Co.
MeSsrs. Harpers have just published "True
to Herself," by F. W. Robinson, an agreeable
novel of Continental intrigue, Paris life, and
cosmopolitan character, interesting to those
who have admired the author's former works,
"Stern Necessity," "No Man's Friend," &c.
It is bound in paper, and May be found at
Tirrner's.
Mr. Horace E. Dresser has compiled, for the
same publishers, the United States Internal
Revenue and Tariff Law, of July 13, 1870.
'The pamphlet gives in regular order the above
Law, the Distilled Spirits and Tobacco Tax
Law, and such other Acts and crafts of Acts (or
"Extr-acts") as are now in effect. This neces
sary labor has been fully and intelligently done
by Mr. Dresser, and there is a copious-analyti
cal IndeX.—For sale by Turner.
..Messrs. Appleton & Co. publish, in pamphlet
form, Miss Julia Cavanaugh's last novel,
"Silvia." It is a patient, minute analysis of
character. The hero, Charles Meredith, is a
handsome, powerful, reserved man, untouched .
among the attractions of a bevy of girls; the
heroine, Silvia, is au impulsive Roman maiden,
determined never to be lassoed by the senti
mental fibre of modern feeling. Naturally her
instinct impels her to dare this impassive con
queror, but naturally, too, she yields before the
conclusion of the novel. Mrs. Groom, au
original character, gives us some capital pas
sages of subdued comedy. Altogether, "Silvia'
is a portrait by a literary artist.
Appleton's edition of Disraeli's earlier works
reaches "Alroy." This issue is cheap and
legible, and very appropriate to the Disraeli re
vival.
The handsome Appleton republication of
Grace Aguilar's hovels now includes her " Days
of Bruce," in two elegant illustrated volumes.
A purer sentiment, a lovelier ideal of woman
hood, has never been achieved by a lady-writer
than may he found in the collective works of
Miss Aguilar. The story of Scotland's heroic
deliverer is`so treated by her as to combine de
lineations of all that. she considered excellent
and admirable in woman. In the proud Isa
bella of Buchan she traces the resignation of a
wounded yet trustful heart. In Isoline she
delineates the selt-inflicted unhappiness of a
too independent spirit; while in Agnes is seen
the overthrow of a mind too innocent and
gentle for the battle of life.
Messrs.G. P. Putnam & Sons issued " Charles
Dickens, a--Sketch of his Life and Works," by
F. B. Perkins. It weaves upon a very graceful
thread the stories, the newspaper speculations,
and .the half-fledged criticisms concerning the
great man, which in detail have fluttered down
upon us rather too abundantly since his death,
but w bleb gather weight and purpose when
arranged by a writer with so good an eye for
symmetry and plan as Mr. Perkins. Every
thing that anybody has contributed to any
newspaper or book about Dickens, so long as
it has a pretence to originality, is torn into
shreds and made to do service in this rag -carpet
of criticism. From the first reception of
" Pickw iek" by the Quarterlies to the sketch of
Dickens as a pedestrian (p. 125)—the writer
does not appear to know that, the sketch is
Sala's—we have Dickens in every phase, from
the shawl-waistcoated and Absalom -haired
writer of the Sketches to the gray, lame and
suflering comedian of the latter readings.
What gives originality to the book is that,
drawing upon various sources, it gives the
French estimate of Dickens. We have Jules
Janin, calling " Nicholas N ickleby" a " disgust
ing mixture of warns milk and sour beer." We
have PattiVeval'sArabian 7 Night s story, from a
Fteneh yam- published just after the novelist's
death, of his paying in three thousand petunia
anonymously to the management of Pechter's
failing theatre. Yinally, what alone is, as
tisers say, " - worth - the price of the book," we
have Tainc's essay cok Dickens, from the sup
plementary volume of 3,a Litt end arc Angl«ic',
done 'into EngliSh tin the first time. M.
Tattle, by his own confession, is confused and
indirect in attempting an estimate of a contem
porary foreigner: he goes into corners to
'Wonder at Dickens's extraordinary descriptions
• of allegorical
,and much-meaning scenery or
old architecture; instead of coming down at
once to 'what Dickens really could do well, to

believe, however, that it would be false art, in
English literature, to make such an, organiza

These . rectangtilar.charaCters, Dombey, Richard,
Hardie, allow thetneelVes to be tempted by
their authors up to the very verge of the abyss
but then the whole overwhelming .force of in
herited opinion, the puritan's profound sense of
responsibility passed down through ages of con
viction, interferes and saves them; nor can a
reader of our race meet with such a catastrophe
in another literature—as the fate of Javert ill

We are glad to observe the success, as a
translation into French, of Lady Georgiana
Fullerton's charming novel, " Anne Severin."
The tale was rendered into fluent and elegant
Parisian in MG, by Mme. Augustus Craven,
at Ler iesidence near Saleino, and since that
date has reached an eighth edition under the
care of its publishers, Didier & Cie., Paris. We
notice it here as au eligible book for those
American readers who wish to ko,ep up their

lady-authors—to say nothing of the mates. It

Ninth Anniversary of Its Settlement•--
tnteresttut; Exercises.
" Nameloc," the competent and enterprising
traveling correspondent, of ' the Ledger, writes
au extremety interesting letter about Vineland,
from which we extract the following account
of a celebration yesterday:
To-day being the ninth anniversary of the
settlement of Vineland, it was celebrated with
appropriate and interesting ceremonies in a
park of forty acres, in the northern part of: the
town,tbe said park having been deeded to the
town by Mr. Landis, the proprietor of the'set
tlement. The . celebration was under the
auspices of the Historical Society of Vineland.
At ten o'clock .the Knights of Pythias in regalia,
the citizens and invited guests, marched in
procession'to the park, headed by the Vine
land band. Here seats were arranged under
the trees, and a large stand erected for the ac
commodation of the speakers. After music by
the band, prayer was offered by . the
Welch
E. S. Wheeler, of Cleveland, Ohio, was next
introduced to the audience, and said:::
.111 r. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen: One
of old declared himself "the citizen of no
wean country." I, as an American, who have
gone over this country, and claim citizenship
on every square inch: of its soil, nnike the same
affirmation Crithing from the fertile fields and
vineyards of Ohio, I cannot avow enthusiasm
on your soil, but your developments in the con
ditions rival the magic growth of the teeming
West. That which most charms me is your
mental and moral status, your freedom, your
order, your temperance and toleration. Seeing
these, arid remembering the wonders of our
progress from Maine to the Golden Gate, I feel
more than ever to glory in my national birth
right. Let your advance be regulated by the
same liberal principles with which you have
begun,and let us all make these the controlling
policy of our common country.
An adjournment then took place for dinner.
When called to order in the afternoon,the Rev.
W. J. Clark delivered an address tipion the
past, present and future of Vineland. He coria
menced by saying that forty years ago this sec
tion of Southern New Jersey was a vast region
of pines, familiarly known as the " Pine Bar
rens" of New Jersey, and consumptive pa
tients visited the place to breathe the odor of
the pines. It was a bold venture of faith
which conceived agsul executed the idea of
planting in this ill-omened region a settlement
that should become a model for thrift in farm
ing and its kindred department,' To attempt
to people this ill-starred region With intelligent
industry; to have on a large stale a system of
small farms which each occupant might reclaim
and own for himself; to call from all sections
men rf willing hearts and ready hands who
should bring intelligence and skill and industry
to the task of cultivating this neglected soil,
was certainly a venture of faith.
To me, said the speaker, this Vineland set
tlement is, in all its features, one of the mar
vels of the nineteenth century. That upon
this out-of-the-way track, so long neglected and
shunned, and condemned, there should have
been gathered a Vast, thriving popula.tion from
neatly all parts of the civilized world, and in
nine years only, making a prosperous agricul
tural settlement. Vineland in that time has
grown from a population of 25 persons to nearly
12,000 souls, and during those nine years, turn
ing the wilderness into a vast vineyard and
bloc ming garden. That some have come here
with extravagant expectations, which have not
been and cannot be anywhere fulfilled, and
Dave gone away disgusted, in no degree invali
dates the statement that this settlement, hav
ing now passed its teething time, is a decided
success. Many here can remember when all
the business of the place was conducted in two
or three stores •.f very modest and moduratel
accommodations, when the receipts of the
post-dlice were barely enough to cover the
eNpeuses, when there was not one church
edifice, when the schools were few and small ;
when the streets, and roads, and sidewalks
were fillen with stumps and grubs. One
feature of the original plan must not be .over
looked. The settlement was formed upon the
exclusion of alcoholic drinks. The annual
vote of the people was to decide whether these
should be retailed here or not. Iliiiv much this
one feature has operated to the Moral and
physical prosperity of ' t lie •se We menti_L
not pause to argue. The provisions in the
charter which rendered fencing unnecessary,
have devoted to the improvement of the place
an amount of money which else would have
been divided to mere self-protection. In con
clusion the speaker said that Vineland must
be, Vineland will be k grand educational
centre, fruo wide!' shall radiate influences
r hid!, by intelligence and intellectual culture, •
and the refining and purifying power of re
igion, shall cOntribute to elevate this region
lac) a controlling pourer.

PHILADELPMA EVENING.BULLETIN, TUESDAY, AUGUST 9, 1870.
Woes to Saratoga Waiters.
A correspondent of the Detroit: Tribune,
writing from Saratoga, describes the co-opera
tion system 'which he asserts prevails_ 'among
the hotel waiters at that famous Watering
place :
" There is less red tape at a Saratoga hotel
than at any other hostelry in America. But
there are more negroes. You will have no
trouble with anybody if you
,make.,. it .right
With the bliekS. This year they have it all
their own way; and have reduced their system
to the most 'perfect working order.) It is the old
system time-honored sySte of gratuities, but it is
put upon a new and singularly exact basis or
co-operation. There is a nominal studi charged
at all the first-class hotels, say live dollars a day
for board, but this is a mere bagatelle :
the real expense is the gratuities. Fill one
of these hotels as full as you can get it.
with guests, and then there will still be three
negroes to every one of them. Every negro
expects to make ehough in the three mouths'
Saratoga campaign to keep him all the rest of
the year in affluence, and he generally manages
it. Ile extorts money from his victims at the
rate of twenty-five cents an hour. It is a worse
tyranny than the trades unions. The black
I ydra cannot be reached—you are completely
at his mercy. His fundamental theory is that
the average American would rather be
swindled . out of his eye teeth than thought poor
or parsimonious. It is in the dining-rooms that
he has the American completely at a disad
vantage. Fail_ to giVe him fifty cents. 'at. your
first meal, and when you come again your chair
is turned over, and' he waves you op with
a lordly gesture. That gesture is contemptuous
and telegraphic. So far as you are concerned
it means : " ou can't Come to -- this table. old
Loy; the seats are engaged." SO far as,the
other negroes are concerned ; it means: "Look
ant for that fellow;-he doesn't pay." They will
then guard their tables from you scrupulously,
until you get to the bottom, of the. room, to a
place reserved for delinquents and celebrated
for the corrugated character of its steaks and
the- billiartkball - coesistency - of its-biscuit: -- The
only way to escape from this purgatory is to
kneel at once to the first waiter you can find,
acknowledge your error and pay him a dollar.
This done ' the fact will be telegraphed to every
black in the room, and you will he allowed to
endure. nothing' new in this but the
admirable-system of it, which is another evi
denceof the influence of trade cO-operation.
" Last season a shrewd New York fellow
conceived the idea of paying these fellows off
in their own coin, and came provided with a
supply of counterfeit stamps. His liberality
liked to have killed him after the first day, for
he overrated himself, and could not move a
foot without having a relay of negroes on to
him with broom brushes. On the third day
matters changed. His chair was turned over,
his bed was hard, his boots were spoiled, his
coat got a secret mark from some nigger's
bloom brush, he was a doomed man; he saw
that he was the subject of sneers and jibes, and
all the black at ts of the tribe. Finally, in des
pair, he went down to the lodine spring with
the suicidal intent of drinking himself into
idiocy, when two dark fellows in white aprons
pointed him out to a constable. Hat's him,
sah " and he was arrested for uttering coun
terfeit money. He is a terrible example of try
ing to resist this invincible battalion of dark
rascals."

introduced, and delivered an eloquent speech;
which was frequently applauded. . .
The lion. William D. Kelley, ahe next
speaker, said that he had long wished to visit
Vineland, but this was the first opportunity be
had had to carry out his tleSires . . - . He had
known the place - long -- brretkitt; 7 6:frakiceTV - the
plan as it existed in the mind of Mr. Landis
before operations were commenced. In 1856,
Asir. Landis was looking for a town' site where
Lis idea might be carried out; his- idea being
--that-the-increase-in-the value of the property
should accrue to the actual settlers.' This idea
bas.been fully .carried out - successfully- by Mr.
Landis, with the cooperation of the settlers.
You haveheezt here nine years, and have but
one pauper, and she came here an invalid, and
have had but one criminal 'Prosecution, and
this but a'siMple assault • and battery—a blow
struck in sudden anger., The world presents
no such history of a community..
I see here, beautiful homes and gardens; they
have been created from the land which we
once called the most God-forsaken spot in the
United, States. Land which was represented
in Philadelphia merely by charcoal, its only
product and manufacture,. You have shown
that this white sand can be made 'to fructify
and yield the conditions of comfort and culti
vation. The Judge then drew a comparison
between Vineland and Salt Lake 'City, assert
ing -that-while morally and . sociallf - they 'were --
as fax apart as heaven and hell, in their mate
rial progress he discovered a parallel.
In conclusion, he recommended the intro
duction of manufactures, not only desirable
for themselves,hutthe inseparable-adjunct of
successful agriculture. To this end, he urged
the formation of co-operative companies.
The Judge' speech closed the ceremonies.

TILE WAR.
LoNooN, August S.—[Special to the New
York Tribune]—A special correspondent sends
from Nancy, Friday morning, the following a -
count of the battle at Weissenbourg, from the
French side: While General Douay's divi
sion. composed of the 74th and 50th Regiments
of the line, Vith battalion of Chasseurs on foot,
one regiment of Tared.% and one regiment of
mounted Chasseurs,were busy yesterday in the
neighbOrhood - of Weissenixug, they *ate ac
tually •startled. by a- tremendous discharge of
artillery. As_ the patrols, which had, been
posted all along the frontier, had not signalled
the presence of any Prussian troops, the men
believed for.a moment that they were surroun-..
ded by the enemy.
This was not the ease;lb.ut.the..Prussians,
great force r and well supplied with artillery,
appeared on the heights of Schwergen, occu-
PY g-the . Whole of the country,hear the_ small
Bavarian village.- General Doub.y ordered his
troops to advanee before the enemy, keeping
as much as possible behind Weissenbourg,which
Lay just between. them and the Prussian form.
But this precaution proved useless, because the
guns were pouring a tremendous fire upon
them, and the troops werefalling in great num
bers in the village of Weissenbourg i',self.
The French retired from their former posi
tion, 'and commenced marching on the right
side of the village. The Prussian guns were
firing at a tremendous rate, and the rounds
fell equally in Weissenbourg as in the midst of
the troops. Several houses were on fire
and large numbers of soldiers lay dead or
wounded.
About 11 o'clock Gen. Vohcan's division was
commencing to retire. However, a new at
tack was ordered. The Turcos led the way,
and. bayonet in hand, threw themselves on
one of the Prussian batteries of artillery, but
all proved to be useless.. Had the French in
sisted on attacking the enemy any longer there
would not have been one of them left alive on
the ground.
As soon as what was left of Gen. Douay's
force began retiring the Prussian artillery was
after them. It was about 12 o'clock when
Gen. Douay fell a victim to the Prussian
artillery,
. _
The troops commenced running without
order, crossing the roads and vineyards until
again reaching the farthest part of Weissen
bourg. The number of dead and wounded
must be very large. The remaining troops are
eager to revenge the death of their late general.
The country people seem to be in the greatest
consternation. The roads which lead to fla.ge
nau are thick with .peasantS, their goods and
cattle with them, and crying over the sad Cate
reserved to, their , humble cottages.
Americans here are receiving their passports.
PAJUs, August Sth.—The report of the Min
ister of War, approved by the- Empress, is pub
lished in the official journal. The .Minister
says: "Existing circumstances oblige us to pro
vide for the defence of the capital, and to garri
son it with fresh troops, allowing all those
which the Emperor. keeps under his orders to
contend in open country against the enemy,
emboldened by his first success to the point of
marching on Paris. But Paris will not be taken
unawares. • The - eXterier Of the' forts received
their armaments some time ag,o,„and already
we have commenced to arm the w ‘ alls around
the city. A state of selge has been declared, to
facilitate the execution of certain works which
will be commenced to-morrow. Thus the ex
terior of the forts arc in a condition to SllStaill a
regular siege, and in a few days the entire
circuit of the walls will be found in a similar
condition. Neither strong arms nor the devo
tion of the inhabitants will be wanting for this
task.
" The Nationale Garde is to defend the ram
parts, which it, will have helped to render unas
sailable. Forty thousiind men taken from its
ranks and added to the present garrison will be
more than enough to make an active and vigor
ous defence against an enemy occupying an
extended front. The defence of Paris then
will be assured. But there is a point not less
essential—it is the necessity of filling up the
void in our army with the help of marine
troops.
" With the regiments still'at our disposal In
'France and Algeria, With the fettith battalion
of each of our hundred regiments, including,
those members w ho'belopg;to,. the 'Garde : Mo
bile, and with a portion of, our gendarmerie; we
-may easily put into thefieid , l4l,ooo 4rten;:'Be
-000, who in a month will become real soldiers.
- 'But for this struggle we can also employ the
entire Nationale and 'Mobile GardeS and the
'companies of France - Thetas; who are every.
*where asking to - he organizedr --- - Here we have
400,000, and finally counting on the Garde
.Isf ationule Sedentaire, - France can then arm two
3nillions of defeOders. Their arms are ready
and a million. are still in reserve."
A decree has been issued ordering the Garde
:Nationale of Paris to be detailed for the
'defence of thercapital,; and that the fortifica-
tions be placed in a condition to tesist an at-
A project of law will ha presented to the
Chambers incorporating in the National and
MObile Guards citizens under :10 years of age
who are not actually members.
Atignst 8--[Special to the New
Atirk_Ribmtel:The news from Paris_ grows
hourly more serious. None but official ac
counts can come by telegraph, and 'it: Jai alb
letters and rails journals that all intelligence
must be gathered: The deciaratiog of a state
of siege does'-not repress popular demousti.:a
tkins, and it is, very doubtful whether the gov
ernment has the force to keep. order or_ to .put.
down any considerable demonstration. The
Republie. Is believe their hour approaches, and.
Paris at this moment is as likely to rise against
NOpoleon as to arm against Prussia. ,
' One of our correspondent 4 whiting Sunday .
evening, says: The rage, fury and disappoint
ment of the ; Parisian population — at finding
there have been a series of defeats on French
soil, inste,od of an , easy military parade, whirl
they 'expected,' 'are' beyond description. We
already' feel the state of siege. All kiosks in
the boulevards .were :shut tip at 11 o'clock.
Something serious, which I cannot fathoin, has
-taken place.
I could not get from Boulevard - Montin - are
to . Boulevard des Italiens, it being barred by
troops. I shall endeavor to, telegraph tliis fact
to_you, hut feel very certain that the 11 t. WS will
not be allowed to pass. I expect to see a fright
ful catastrophe froutthe temper of the people.
. The population is furious on reading the
proclamations of - the Empress and Ministry
sayingthe country may let bO saved if all will
be united. •h re' serious than - 1
know of must have happened this evening
from the state of the boulevards, which I have
observed.
Although troops are. on the streets now
there IS ranch' less exciternetethan there was
last night. AS far as 1 know, no serious disor
der has taken place.
'Another 'edkrespondent "says "OffiCial
presslon of news will not much longer be tole
rated. What especially irritated' the" people
was that the only tolerably distinct report of
the Weissenbourg defeat printed here was trans
lated from English papers."
This evening the Rappel, just received, pub
lishes the following deelaration :
‘i The undersigned Deputies met at the
Palace of the Corps Legislataf. They demand
the immediate arming of all citizens of Paris
in actual circumstances. All France must be
armed and - ready:" Seventeen . DeptitieS
this, among them Favre, Cremieux,itesquiros,
Garmier-Pages, Arago, Pelletal), Richarde, and
Jules Simon. •
The press supports this manifesto, with an
other, saying :" France is invaded. The Demo
cratic Press of Paris demand the immediate
arming of all citizens, and the organization of
a committee of defence, composed. firstly, of
the Deputiesf.um Paris, and that all patriots
rise and join up. The country is in danger."
This is signed by the dcmiir Glodie (Dem.),
the Rappel, Rcrcillr, and Steck.
It is certain that these Deputies and journals
do not make this call to arms for the defence
of the Emperor, whose military incapacity has
brought disaster France.
Another correspondent writes: "Everybody
here was s2ad this morning, madder at noon,'
and maddest about the revolutionary point at
night. We are swindled by the Ministry about
news, and though the people may bear up
against defeats from the Prussians, they will
not :much longer,endure insult and fraud from
terror-stricken government;" •
METz, August 7, 9.30 A: the battle
Or Saturday; near Relehofler;
of stall, Gen. Colson: was shot by the Marshal's
side,
Generalßaotilt is among - the missing.
Onr artillery suffered heavily.
Marshal MacMahon is now in communica
tion with GeneralTailly.
Metz is being prepared for a vigorous de
fence. The general commanding the fortress
has ordered the Germans and strangers to pro
vide themselves with a permission of resi
dence.
Jounial says that the late events, so far
from being prejudiced by this state of affairs,
render more significant the fact that what the
governments desire in common with France is
the maintenance of European equilibrium.
LONDON, August 8.-1 n the House of Lords
to-day Earl Granville stated that the neutrality
of Belgium was now assured, the powers at
war concurring in a pledge to respect it. He
melted at great length the course of negotia
tiens undertaken by the British government,
and brought to this satisfactory result.
Lord Halifax said the government would not
prohibit the exportation of arms.
Pants, August S.—The Temps this evening
announces that Marshal Bazzine has been ap
pointed commander-in-chief, and General Tro
elm major general of the army. General
I. eboetle retires.
The Ministers bouef have issued the follow
ing proclamation
Frenchmen, we have told the whole truth.
It is for you now to do your duty. Let one
shout come from all, from one end of France
to the other in sustaining the great cause. Sonia
of our rights have fallen befOre overwhelming
numbers. The army has not been defeated.
Let the inhabitants of all parts of France not
subjected to the burden of war rush to the as
sistance of their brothers in the East.. Let France
be united. "leaven bless our arms.
