"I know that." "Blanqui is in its favor, with Michelet." "I am against it, with Barbès." From the moral aspect I passed to the practical aspect. "This said," resumed I, "let us examine your plan." This plan bristled with difficulties. I pointed them out to him. "Count on the National Guard! Why, General Lawoëstyne had not yet got command of it. Count on the Army?

"But the clemency of the King had anticipated the letter of the Poet. His Majesty had signed the commutation of Barbes, while the poet was still writing. "Louis Philippe replied to the author of 'Ruy Blas' most graciously, that he had already subscribed to a wish so noble, and that the verses had only confirmed his previous disposition to mercy." * Translated for the benefit of country gentlemen:

The ministers of Charles X, in 1830, had cause to regret the strength of the chateau walls; and Barbés, Blanqui and Raspail, in 1848, and various Republicans, who had been seized as dangerous elements of society after the Coup d'État of 1851, also here found an enforced hospitality. The Chateau de Vincennes had become a second Bastille.

I do not think him strong. LXIX. TO GUSTAVE FLAUBERT, at Paris Nohant, 12 October, 1867 I have sent your letter to Barbes; it is fine and splendid, as you are. I know that the worthy man will be glad of it. But as for me, I want to throw myself out of the window; for my children are unwilling to hear of my leaving so soon.

"And you veiled it?" said the superintendent. "No, for so it happened I had one of my men in the crowd; a new recruit from the provinces, one M. Menneville, whom I like very much. He made his way through the press, saying to the joker: 'Mille barbes! Monsieur the false joker, here's a thrust for Colbert! 'And one for Fouquet, replied the joker.

To aid the youthful statesman Came the aeronaut Nadar, Who sent up the 'Armand Barbes' With Gambetta in its car." Further on came the following lines, supposed to be spoken by Gambetta himself whilst he was gazing at the German lines beneath him "See how the plain is glistening With their helmets in a mass! Impalement would be dreadful On those spikes of polished brass!"

Consultation of lawyers signed: E. Arago, Favre, Berryer, to complain of these abominations." Find out from him if all that is true; I shall be obliged. LXVII. TO GUSTAVE FLAUBERT, at Croisset Paris, Tuesday, 1st October, 1867 Dear friend, you shall have your information. I asked Peyrat last evening, I am writing today to Barbes who will answer directly to you.

Saying he would not be back until the evening, probably, Fandor stepped on to the boulevard Barbès, and hailed a cab. "Take me to the foot of the Vendôme column," he ordered. Arrived at the rendezvous, Fandor sauntered along, awaiting developments. Presently he noticed in the distance a figure he seemed to know. It was moving towards him. "My word!

He saw it behind him after he had left the city gate, the Porte de Versailles, and he saw it again after he had left the main route at Issy and entered the little rue Barbés which led to La Lierre. Of course, he promptly did the only possible thing under the circumstances.

I am sure that the dead are well off, that perhaps they are resting before living again, and that in all cases they fall back into the crucible so as to reappear with what good they previously had and more besides. Barbes only suffered all his life. There he is now, sleeping deeply. Soon he will awaken; but we, poor beasts of survivors, we see them no longer.
