There is no need here of revolution, of what the French call une jaquerie, of arming the populace for the purpose of violently ejecting the great land-owners. No Irishman has ever stood for so calamitous a remedy. The aid of the Internationalists will certainly never be called in by the true children of Erin for any purpose whatever.
He must wait for the day of his harvest. He must wait till the Jaquerie comes, till farm houses are burning, till threshing machines are broken in pieces; and then begins his business, which is simply to send one poor ignorant savage to the county gaol, and another to the antipodes, and a third to the gallows.
Everything indicated the approach of no common revolution, of a revolution destined to change, not merely the form of government, but the distribution of property and the whole social system, of a revolution the effects of which were to be felt at every fireside in France, of a new Jaquerie, in which the victory was to remain with Jaques bonhomme.
