This will be all the more easy, the more false, the more absurd and the more abominable it is. Above all, if you wish to be strong, begin by rooting out of your legislation every particle of socialism which may have crept into it, and this will be no light work. M. Montalembert has been reproached with wishing to turn brute force against socialism.
Here love makes its gallant bid for freedom, fires up for lawlessness, if need be, and at least sets convention at defiance: The world's good word! the Institute! Guizot receives Montalembert! Eh? Down the court three lampions flare: Set forward your best foot! But, after all, this love may be no more than an adventure of the boulevard and the attic in the manner of Béranger's gay Bohemianism.
The expedition against Rome will next time take place in France, but in a reverse sense from that of M. de Montalembert. Finally, the culminating point of the "idees Napoleoniennes" is the preponderance of the Army.
Unless it were To keep a whole skin, and gradually edge home to his victuals. As essentially it was, and continued to be; creating endless negotiations, and futile overtures and messagings from Daun to his barbarous Friend, endless suasions and troubles from poor Montalembert, of which it would weary every reader to hear mention, except of the result only.
One-third of it was supplied by two hostile nations, one of which, Piedmont, had actually, by the intrigues of its government and in pursuance of a policy which an able statesman, a most candid writer and an honorable man, Count Montalembert, has stigmatized as criminal, caused the rebellion in Romagna, and has since earnestly labored to avail itself of the state of things, by annexing Central Italy to the territories of the Piedmontese King.
This speech was reproduced in "The Times." Montalembert read it with admiration. "Who," he asked Sir M. E. Grant Duff, "who is Mr. Kinglake?" "He is the author of 'Eothen." "And what is 'Eothen? I never heard of it." He found great enjoyment in parliamentary life, but was in 1868 unseated on petition for bribery on the part of his agents.
Montalembert had received it some time before. There must have been something soothing, not inharmonious to the poetical mind, in the slumbrous reign which gradually became intolerable to the commonalty and got itself into contempt with all the world. The young poets of the time were peaceful, not discontented. Full of energy as they were, they took no part in the gathering storm.
It had become, or rather, never was anything better than, waste paper. The head of the Bonapartes was the offender, and he contrived to make France the partner of his guilt. “It is France,” the illustrious M. de Montalembert affirms, “that has allowed the temporal power of the Pope to be shaken. This is the fact, which blind men only can deny.
Such men as Guizot, Thiers, Cousin, Changarnier, Cavaignac, Molé, Broglie, Hugo, Villemain, Lamartine, Montalembert, would have prevented the fall of constitutional government if their hands had not been tied. They were in prison or exiled.
How happy could I be with either, Were t'other dear charmer away; But while you thus teaze me together, The devil a word will I say. Infallibility of Popes is the doctrine insisted upon by Count De Montalembert as essential as doctrine the smallest deviation from which is damnable heresy.
