HKCTCtlEU OF FRRMt n REVOLUTIONS.
Mny cauacs combined to cfTect the
overthrow of the monarchy in Fraure
in the latter quarter of the last centu.
ry. The excesses of the Crown, the
grinding tyranny ef the nobler, the
spread of infidel principles, the
example of America, and the
awakening consciousness that "the di
iDe right of kings" was a gross im
position all impelled to the great
denouement of the 10th of August,
1792, when the palace of theTuileries
was entered by the populace of Paris,
and the reign of Louis XVI and bis
beautiful consort, Marie Autoinette,
ended forever. The beginning of the
first revolution might be said to date
from the action of the King in the
granting (May, 1789) M. Necker's
proposition of a double vote to the
third estate (the Commons), so as to
balance the votes of the other two
houses, composed ef the clergy and
nobility. What was called a Nation
al Assembly sprung from this cause,
and by the constitution which they
formed they changed the old French
monarchy into a representative repub
lic. They suppressed feudal jurisdic
tions, manorial dues and fees, the titles
of nobility, the tithes, convents, and
corporations of trade ; they confiscat
ed the property of the Church, and up
rooted things generally. The King
endeavored in vain to stop this head
long career by the use of his veto, but
tho revolution was rushing at full
sneel. and outbreak occurred in llis
provinces, while every day the parti- J
sans ot the King were growing fewer
aad weaker. In June, 1792, an insur
rection took place in Paris, followed
by another iu August, and the palace
of the Tuileries was- eutered and all I
its inmates massacred. The King was
deposed ; he and his family sent pris
oners to the temple, tried by the Na
tional Convention, and executed on
the 21st of January, 1793. Marie
Antoinette followed him to the scaf
fold iu October of the same year.
The second revolution changed the
form of the government of France
from that of a republic (which took
on a boisterous life after the monarchy)
governed by a Directory to a Consul
ship of three, ef whom Napoleon lio
naparte was first. The fall of the Di
rectorial government iu 1800, though
ever so irregularly brought about, was
certainly not a subject of regret to a
great majority of the French people,
who bad neither respect for it nor any
confidence in it. The profligacy and
dishonesty of that govern tnent was no
torious. Napoleon was now promi
nently on the. scene, and bis power
from year to year grew more and more
absolute, until finally, iu 1804, a mo
tion was made in the Tribuuato to be
stow upon him the title of Emperor of
the t rencii, with the hereditary suc
cession iu his family. The nrortrsi-
tion was submitted to the vote of the
people, but before they were collected
Napoleen assumed the title of Empe
ror at St. Cloud, on the 18th of May,
1804.
The third revolution was marked bv
colossal wars on the part of Napoleon.
tie squandered the blood ana treasure
of France on a scale of unprecedented
extravagance. The liberty and equal-!
ity so ostentatiously established by the
Republic disappeared, and however
much of the glory of wur the empire
reaped, it succeeded effectually in
emasculating the morul and physical
manhood of the nation.
The fourth revolution caroe with the
defeat of Napoleon before Paris, in
the spring of 1814, aud his retiremeut
to Elba. This gave a show to the
Bourbon paity to welcome Louis
XV11I. to the throne of his ancestors.
Louis came, but his stay was rendered
brief. lie was sincere in his profes
sions, but he was surrouuded by dis
appointed emigrants aud eld royalists,
whose imprudence injured him in the
Eublio estimation, while against him
e had a formidable Bona part it body.
A conspiracy was hatched against
Louis. Bonaparte returned from Elba,
and Louis, forsaken by all, retired to
f 1 1
unem.
The fifth revolution was the return
of Napoleen, and his eutry into Paris
on the Mtb of March, 1815. The re
turn was accompanied by the acclama
tion of the military and the lower
classes, but the great body of the citi
zens looked ou silent and ttstounded.
He was recalled by a party, but not
by the nation. A few months after
Waterloo followed, aud that put an
end to th career of the gre,t Napo
leon. The sixth revolution fallowed Wa
terloo, for that battle opened tbe way
for Louis XVIII. to return to Paris.
By this time he appeared as an insult
ed and betrayed mouarch. Those offi
cers who, in spite of their oaths to
Louis, had openly favored Bopaparte's
usurpation, were tried aud found guilty
of treason. Some were shot aud oth
ers exiled. Louis in the course ef
time showed that the. eld Bourbon
leaven was in him. The law of elec
tion was Altered, the newspapers ware

placed under censorship, and other
measure of a retrograde nature adopt
ed. He died in September, 1823, and
having left no istie, was succeeded by
his brothur Charles X., whose first art
was to abolish the censorship of the
press, which gave him a momentary
gleam of popularity; but his after
efforts to tie up the liberty of the peri
odical press brought a storm around
his ears that cost him his throne.
The seventh revolution occurred ou
the 2d of August, 1830, when Charles
X. abdicted the crowa and retired to
England. The ordinance against the
periodical press brought on the crisis
of the 27th of July, 1830, when the
first encounter took place between the
troops and the people. The fighting
next day became more general. The
National Gunrds joined the people,
tbe Hotel do Ville was taken and re
taken, the Louvre and Tuileries at
tacked, and on the 30th of July the
revolution was virtually ended, and
Louis Phillippe was proclaimed King
of France.
The eighth revolution was the mem
orable one of 1848, when "the Citizen
King" had to fly incontinently to
England without his shaving utensils.
His reign was a period of corruption
in high places. The heart of the na
tion wns alienated from their Kiug,
and when a trifling disturbance in
February, 1848, was aggravated into
a popular riot, Leu is Phillippe felt
that he stood alone and unsunported
as a constitutional King. He shrank
from employing soldiers against his
people, and he fell in-consequence. He
fled in disguise from Paris to the coast
of Normandy, and, talti.ig ship, found
refuge again in England. Tlure was
a republic onco again. Lamartine
was the man of the moment, but his
popularity was short-lived, and in the
general election of 1849 Louis Napo
leon walked over tbe course.
The ninth revolution was inaugu
rated in the bloody celebrated coup
d'etat of December, leol, and Louis
Napoleon made himself Emperor and
strangled the infnnt Republic. His
career was splendid for almost twenty
years, until the fatal blunder of de
claring war against Prussia, aud then
the gigantic bubble of his Empire col
lapsed. The news of the disaster at
Sedan ended the imperial regime. The
Empress fled to England, and a new
form of government, quasi civil quasi
military, took its place.
The tenth revolution. With the
fall of the Empire all the worst ele
ments ef the huge city ef Paris were
liberated, aud though' for a very long
time a degree of exemplary order
reigned, the storm that finally buret
and wrought its fury on the fair and
devoted city could not have been
wholly unanticipated. Under tbe
reign of the Provisional government
desperate effort were made to restore
tbe lost prestige ot the .trench milita
ry name, but the fates were unpropi
tious, and things went from bad to
worse. Ou the 19th of March, 1871.

for the past twe years. He has ac

better than was ever anticipated. Now,
it may be presumed, this for the pres
ent is the last of the revolutions, and
the advent of Marshal McMahon is
but a simple change in the adminis
tration. Some men at Louisville were bet

of the weight ef live stock, got behind
the mule aud wai measuring in hind

loesen up the mule. Just before the

if the mule was as heavy all over as
he was behind he must weigh not far
from 47,000 pounds.

CAPITAL AMD I.ABOR-HOW TO KF.lO.
CII.I TIIK.tf.
BY PBOF. J. D. BUTLER.
When FalstafT sent his page to Mas
ter Dumbleton for a satin cloak, and
offered his bond and Bardolph's for
payment, the answer was that the "tai
lor liked not the security." lhe
Knight called Dumpletcn a rascally
knave to stand upon security, and
cried, "I would as lief they would put
ratsbane in my mouth as stop it with
security." He who goes a borrowing,
goes sorrowing. Not only Shylocke,
but most capitalists are deaf te bor
rowers, because they, as well as Fal
staff's tailor, "like not tbe security."
Capitalists will not lend a poor man
money. They demand security. As
he cannot endorse, others will not en
dorse for him. He has no lands, no
chattels, on which he can give a mort
gage. Where he is snnguiue that he
can double the mjoney he wishes to
borrow, they iay to hiin, "you may be
robbed or cheated, or your investment
may be burned up and your insurance
worthless, cr you may abecocd, or
yeur death may blight the brightest
prospects" "we like not your securi
ty." It is a "castle in the air."
Again, capitalists shun putting their
investments into the hands of any poor
straDger. They are distrustful of his
honesty wherethere is a chance for
fraud ; of his competence, where skill
is demanded; of his zeal, where he
has no interest at stake; and of his
vigilance, where there are temptations
to negligence. Ho might carve out
his fortune, but na one will trust him
with the tools.
But roust capital and labor needs
be hostile? Is there no way in which
capitalists can be just to themselves,
and yet ge.ierous to borrowers T Yes,
they can. How? By land sales on ten
rears' credit and six per cent, interest.
The borrower cannot be cheated out
of land which is not deeded to him till
he has finished paying for it. He can
not run away with it. No fire can
burn it up. He cannot lessen its val
ue. The labor and money he lays out
ou it will increase that value. He
cannot strip it of lumber, more than
he can pull hair from a bald head.
Nor in such a loan is his honesty,
competence, zeal or vigilance distrust
ed. He is stimulated to the exercise
of them all bv his fear of losing the
turn be paid in advance, together with
whatever he lays out to improve bis
farm, and by his hope of making it
pay for itself, and support him and
bis. Other borrowingdulls the edge of
thrift this sharpens it.
The Burlingtonr tt Missouri River
Railroad Co., within thirty-three
months onward from April, 1870, sold
in Iowa and Nebraska, 478,988 acres,
to 4,525 purchasers, mostly on ten
vears' credit, at six per cent, interest
The purchases average ono hundred
and eight acres apiece.
Thus tho B. & M. road has furnished
4,525 loans, amounting, in the aggre
gate, ta $,55B,498, to men, most of
whom, would have been unable to
borrow from banks, or any- other
source. Its long credit sale have given
them tools to work with. So it makes
borrowers and lenders friendly, afFird
ing lenders security, and borrowers
all the loans they can use, and those
such as will, in most cases, pay for
themselves. He who gives us a
chance to help ourselves is the best
helper.

An amusing experience which re
cently befell a spceial agent of the
Post Office Department illustrates
the ideas which postmasters in the far
West entertain regarding the dignity,
and importance of their position.
The agent, commonly called "Mac."
while officially visiting various offices
in Montana Territory, for the purpose
of correcting any irregularities of post
masters, stopped at Irou Rod. Going
into the post office, he found'the roem
divided into three sections, first it sa
loon, next the post office, and the last
a faro bank. The mail bag was.
brought in, a rough looking customer
opened it and emptied the contents on
the fleor. The entire crowd got down
on their hands aud knees and com
menced overhauling the letters, among
which several were registered, and se
lected sue) as they wanted. After
they were through, the remaining
letters wero shoveled into a candle box
and placed on the bar. The special
agent, thinking the office needed a
little regulating, asked the bar tender
who had received and distributed the
mail, if he was the nostmaHter. He
answered, "No." "Are you the assist
ant postmaster?" "No." "Where is
the noatmnster t" ''On mininn
"Where's the assistant postmaster?"
. uone to lieu s (Janyen, and by thun
der, Bill Janes has got to rua this
office next week, it's his turn." The
governmental official then asked who
he was, aud demanded the keys of the
office. The bar tender coolly took
the candle box from the bar, put
it on the floor, and gave it a kick,
sending it out of the door, saying,
"There's your post office, now git."
The agent says. "Knowing the cus
toms of the country, I lost no time
in following this advice, and got."
That office was discontinued.
A man died in Worcester, Mass.,
the ether day, whose career ooght to
be for young menjthe most effectual of
temperance lectures. Twelve years
ago he was a young lawyer in Connec
ticut, of uncommon Abilities and bril
liant promise. He entered the army
and rose to the rank of Cohnel, but
ho became addicted to drink and rap-
iaiy sanx to me grade ot a common
drunkard. While intoxicated ' one
night, iu a low den he was "shang
haed" aboard a bark bound fer China.
The vessel was wrecked ofTSt. Helena,
and ho, with several ethers, wort res
cued and takeu to Cape Town. Here,
while on a debauch, he was arrested
and imprisioned, and afterwards hired
to a Dutch farmer, where he worked
with Hottentots. Escaping, be ship
ped on a trading vessel throuch the
Straits of Madagascar, where he de
serted and lived for some time among
me natives oi ine island, narrowly
escaping murder, he afterwards put to
sea in an open boat, was picked up
and taken to Cape Town, and then to
Singapore. For several years bo
wandered about in China and Japan,
a poor drunken vagabond, finally
lauded at Sun Francisco in a itate of
beggary, and made his way across the
continent. Ilia friends beaid of him
as a bar-tender in a miserable saloon
iu Elizabeth, N. J., sick and broken
down, aud took him home t die, a
warn out debauchee at the age of thirty-six.
An Australian millionaire named
Dykahon is receiving a deal of atten-
tion in Paris on account of bis wealth.
He is a Yankee and his doings in Mel
beurue that brought his riches axa

of aNew Engfander. When money
was pienty ana no lei accomodations
were soarse he was . an innkeeper.
When the demand was great he would
put up bis rooms at auction, and thus
got greater prices than otherwise.
Lola Montss came to Melbourne and
wa put to bis use by "mine host,"
who advertised that the notorious ac
tress would diue at his table cf'i every
evening. The rush to dine at his ho
tel was tremendous, and as he doubled
his prices, of extraordinary profit to
Dykshon. In theoe instauces are in
