Pagina 170 - ... when an order on the subject was published by the chief of police. For the police, who in every country seem to be less inclined to prevent crime than to appear to know all about it, either desired to display their universal information or else thought, as regards the tales of poisoning, that whether they were true or false, they themselves must in any case divert all suspicion from the Government — suffice it to say, that by their unfortunate proclamation, in which they distinctly said that...
Pagina 62 - ... nowhere so much as in France. Perhaps, with the exception of August Wilhelm Schlegel, there is not a woman in Germany so fond of gay ribbons as the French; even the heroes of July, who fought for freedom and equality, afterward wore blue ribbons to distinguish themselves from the rest of the people. Yet, if I on this account doubt the success of a republic in Europe, it still cannot be denied that everything is leading to one ; that the republican respect for law in place of veneration of royal...
Pagina 252 - Speaker, and dream of the time, When loyalty was not quite a crime, When Grant was a pupil in Canning's school...
Pagina vii - One is the masterly manner in which our author as early as 1832, immediately after Louis Philippe's succession to the throne, pointed out as clearly as by photograph, one by one, not with unpitying but very pitying accuracy, the causes which would lead to that monarch's overthrow. These causes were bound up and intertwined with many influences which are still in vivid action, and which no writer in any language has expressed more wisely, more searchingly, or more succinctly than Heine. Therefore...
Pagina 57 - It is inexhaustible in clever sayings as to " the best republic," a phrase with which poor Lafayette is mocked, because he, as is well known, once embraced Louis Philippe before the Hotel de Ville and cried, " Vous etes la meilleure republique! " The Figaro recently remarked that we of course now require no republic, since we have seen the best. And it also said as cruelly, in reference to the debates on the civil list, that " la meilleure republique coute quinze millions.
Pagina 16 - I have never shared this faith or confidence. On the contrary, I watched with anxiety this Prussian eagle, and, while others boasted that he looked so boldly at the sun, I was all the more observant of his claws. I did not trust this Prussian, this tall and canting, white-gaitered hero with a big belly, a broad mouth, and corporal's cane, which he first dipped in holy water ere he laid it on.
Pagina 64 - Napoleon, the man of iron, here as in life standing on his fame, earned by cannon (Kanonenruhm), rising in terrible isolation to the clouds, so that every ambitious soldier, when he beholds him, the unattainable one, there on high, may have his heart humbled and healed of the vain love of celebrity, and thus this colossal column of metal, as a lightning conductor of conquering heroism, will establish the most peaceable profit in Europe.2 Lafayette has raised for himself a better column than that...
Pagina 67 - ... boundless devotion of the French people to Napoleon. Therefore the discontented, when they determine on a decided and daring course, will begin by proclaiming the young Napoleon, in order to secure the sympathy of the masses. Napoleon is, for the French, a magic word which electrifies and benumbs them. There sleep a thousand cannon in this name, even as in the column of the Place Vendome, and the Tuileries will tremble should these cannon once awake. As the Jews never idly uttered the name of...
