antage does the possession of such a country offer that he believed it, in the sands of a skillful General, capable of counterbalancing almost any deficiency in numbers. The history of Switzerland abundantly sustains this opinion, if, indeed, the opinion of Napoleon upon a military subject requires any support. That people, although quarrelling among themselves, for centuries maintained their independence against the great powers that lay on the North and. West of their mountains. Neither France nor Germany was ever able to subdue them, and Charles the Bold, though the most warlike prince of his day, was overthrown on the bloody field of Morat with more than two-thirds of his army. The English tried for several centrueis to conquer Scotland, and they often drove the whole population from the plain to the mountains; but beyond that point they could not penetrate. The wave of English invasion broke and scattered against the sterile rocks of the Scottish Highlands. Now, we are v

Our forefathers did not inquire too closely into the motives of France when she came to the aid of America in the Revolution. It would have been very absurd in them to have thrown in the teeth of France what was undoubtedly true, that, in espousing the cause of the American Colonies, she was influenced more by hatrFrance what was undoubtedly true, that, in espousing the cause of the American Colonies, she was influenced more by hatred of England than love of America. She was looking after her interests, not ours; but it would have been very ridiculous to tell lier so. Nations do not go counselling in these days, but follow their interests; and if the interests of any section or party in the North point to peace, let us by all means bid them God speed. Let us make their interests more palpable to them by a vigorous prosecution of the war, and let us give them distinctly to understand that reconstruction is a thing not to

Foreign Gossip. The ex-royal family of France is living quietly in England. The venerable ex Queen Marie Amelie, who, with the Prince de Joinville, the Duke de Nemours, and other members of the Orleans family, has been staying at a hotel at St. Leonard's on Sea, returned to Claremont last month. The Queen was looking remarkably well, considering her venerable age, and all the family have derived much benefit from their sojourn on the south coast. While at St. Leonard's an interesting event took place — the betrothal of the Duke de Chartres, second son of the late Duke d'orleans, to the Princess Francois d'orleans, daughter of the Princess de Joinville. In the princely train which followed the Prince of Wales and his betrothed to the alter, the carious spectator might, and probably did, observe several little Highlanders, killed and plaided, and plaided and belted after the most approved Galedonfan standard. Inquiry has been stimulated as to why the little Prince William
