JUSTICE IN MONACO,
I wish I had leisure wipaakat length
of this astonishing state, smaller than a
French village, but where one finds an
that of the late Louis XIV, principles of
| government more despotic than those of
| William of Prussia, and, in addition to
all this, a magnificent toleration for the
vices of humanity.
On the other hand, let us salute this
virtnous peacefully disposed king, who,
fearing neither invasions mor revolu-
tions, riles tranquilly over his happy
monial, in which is preserved intact the
| tradition of four reverences, 26 hand
kissings and all the forms observed in a
. bygone era in the presenon of great rul-
oars. :
‘This monarch, above everything, is
' neither bloodthirsty nor revengeful,
and when he banishes—{cxr he does han-
ish-—the sentence is carried out with in-
. finite tact.
Is it ery tO produce proofs of
this?
A pigheaded gambler, after a day of
bad luck, insulted the sovereign. He
‘was expelled from the country by royal
decree.

stir up unknown troubles in the state.

The court sat a long time withont

the death sentence into one of imprison-

adopted.

~ Once more the court assembled, and
it was decided that they should invite
the criminal to depart from the states

On this decision being communicated
to him he merely replied:

now. Why should I go away, ’ indeed ?
I hate no means of living I have no
longer any family. What do you wish
me to do?. I was condemned to death.

go in China, not being up to the Ameri-

As he moved away from the scene of

was speedily beheaded, but the suthcri-
