In politics the Tories resembled the extreme Right in the French Chamber of Deputies, the ultra-conservatives, who sustained the throne of Charles X. The Whigs bore more resemblance to the Centre of the Chamber of Deputies, led by such men as Guizot, Broglie, and Thiers, favorable to a constitutional monarchy, but by no means radicals and democrats like Louis Blanc, Ledru Rollin, and Lamartine.
"Well, you needn't go if it does!" responded her aunt sharply. "It don't scream to me when I'm rollin' out these doughnuts, and it wouldn't to you if your mind was on your duty." Rebecca's little brown hands flew in and out among the weeds as she thought rebelliously: "Creation WOULDN'T scream to Aunt Miranda; it would know she wouldn't come." Scream on, thou bright and gay creation, scream!
She asked the question again and, in the light of her recent reply to Rollin, asked again, if she had any very great purpose in life herself. What would Jesus do? There was a fortune in her voice. She knew it, not necessarily as a matter of personal pride or professional egotism, but simply as a fact.
"In the name of the people, silence, and let Lamartine speak!" at length was heard in the thunder tones of Ledru Rollin, rising above all other sounds. Silence for a moment being obtained, Lamartine exclaimed: "Citizens! a provisional government is declared! The names of the members will now be announced by the President!" Lamartine then descended from the tribune; applause and uproar succeeded.
"It is certainly a very good example of self-sacrifice," replied Rollin a little stiffly. Virginia looked at him a little sharply. "But don't you think it is a very unusual example? Can you imagine " here Virginia named half a dozen famous opera singers "doing anything of this sort?" "No, I cannot," Rollin answered briefly.
"You are too young to worry your brain with dry old fossils like Rollin and Plutarch," he said, with what gravity he could. "I am a person of twenty," she affirmed with demure satisfaction, as she tripped along in a manner quite enchanting. At the door of the farm-house a fair, motherly face smiled a welcome from the border of a spotless cap, then sobered a little at the sight of a stranger.
Chatting and merry laughter resounded on all sides, for pemmican and bales of dried meat meant money, and they were coining it fast. Towards sunset a band of several hunters appeared on the ridge in front of the camp, and came careering gaily towards it. Baptiste Warder, the mighty captain, led. Victor, Ian, Rollin, Winklemann, Flett, Mowat, and others followed.
He tried some words of comfort: "He's safe, anyhow, Maw 'member that! That's a whole lot too. Didn't always know that, times he was rollin' round so over here. You worried a whole lot about him, you know." But Maw didn't answer. She seldom spoke at all moved about as little as possible. When she had put out food for him and Tom she always went back to her corner and stared into the fire.
He was born in the province of Posen, so violently seized on by Prussia, that octopus of Europe. Serge's father had been killed during the insurrection of 1848, and he, when a year old, was brought by his uncle, Thaddeus Panine, to France, and was educated at the College Rollin, where he had not acquired over much learning.
The rollin' hills rolled down and up in great billowy masses of green and pale blue, accordin' as they wuz fur or near, and we went by shinin' water, and a glowin' landscape, and pretty houses, and fields of grain and corn, etc., etc. And anon we reached a place where "Victory Mills" wuz printed up high, in big letters.
