THE EAGLES ASD THE GODS . ITR 5 T PUBLICATION OF IH 3 SOCIAUST TJXIO 5 J . { Translated from the French for the Star of Freedom . ) "When , after the outrage on the French Republic on the 2 nd of December , the murderer of the Roman Republic hastened to kneel hypocritically in the Catholic temple ; when , covered with French blood , he demanded from- the Church , as the price of Italian slaughter , the solemn benediction of perjury and violence ; when , under the ? ault of the Cathedral of the Middle Ages , the Prince and tha Priest praised together tbe-same God — Te Demo , laudamus — thQ nineteenth centwy stood aghast at the insensate attempt at a double resurrection . The . military and religious fete of the 10 th of May came to show clearly the character of that fantastical resurrection of Pope and Emperor .
The crime against liberty in Italy was tut the premeditation of the crime against liberty in France . J ? ne temporal power had raised anew the spiritual power at Rome , in order to obtaiD , in turn , aid and consecration . The Priest serves the Prince after haying been served by Mm ; and , renewing the old alliance of the lion and the fox , they intend to use , in common , the instrument of Catholic and Monarchical despotism . This is why the head of the Chnrch , in presence of the head of the State—the prince of priests in pre-Eence of the prince of soldiers—has caused to kneel
down in the Champ de Mars the French army which had already prostrated itself before the Vatican , after having cannonaded the Homan people . From a loft y altar , ornamented with warlike lances , he has blessed the arms and cannon , and the imperial eagle—the bird of prey with outstretched wings ; he has preached a crusade to combat the infidels j he has consecrated the new army of faith , the devout and disciplined gendarmerie , for the re-eEtablishment of order by . orce .
Te 31 the servant of Jesus Christ , ' the pastor that the government of General Cavaignac gave to the city after the 33 rd of June , ' * the Archbishop of Pari 3 , remembering , doubtless , that he owed his elevation and his episcopal dignity to a soldier dictator , has glorified the God of armies , and preached the religion of battles : — « The Church , ' said he , 'has always had abundant benedictions for the soldier . Annies are in the hand of God as powerful instruments of public order . Right has need of
force . War is necessary . God approves it . The prophets call it hol y . The Church has for it words of benediction , of encouragement , and almost of love . It is , therefore , that now , as in the post , the soldier and the priest , both placed under the austere lawa ^ of the . same discipline , have met and have claspE&ftaftaV NayTmore the Christian priest has invoked ' this terrible God of the Jews who directed their battles , and the Gods whom Pagan Rome placed besides her eagles , at the head of her legions !'
And , in the style of a Roman pontiff , terminating withanapostropheto Cse 3 ar and to Jnpiter , he cried : * 0 , Prince ! who brings to ns the eagles as the most glorious part of your domestic inheritance , we rely upon your wisdom . Providence destines you , like Solomon , to the building of a great and holy work . Build with one hand , and with the other hold always the glorious sword of France . " 0 God ! imprint upon these standards bright signs of your 5 over , and of your holiness-, in order that courage mavbe fired—de cceh fortitudo
estjin crdar that the eagles may be terrible to the enemies of repose and to jealous nations , in order that the good may be reassured and the wicked tremble !" Thus arise together the two execrable powers , whicl ' jjdurinsf many ages , in concert or in concurrence , have oppressed the nations . Catholicism and feudalism , the altar and the throne , the cross and the sword , the Inquisition and war , the Jesuit and the executioner , the priest and the soldier , the Pope and the Emperor ! thus are resuscitated at the same time the Roman eagles and the Pagan gods !
Can it be that the modern idea is destined to vanish before these phantoms of the jiast ? Can it be that Saturn must still devour his own Children ? &o ! no ! it is not the new world that is powerless to live ; it is the old society that is condemned to die : "When the ancient God 3 , who had been the light and the power of Romp , became mingled wiih the Csjars , whf u 2 ^ ero was confounded wish Jup-t * r , the revolutionists of the ' sine , tha Christisu- - , saw that Pagan Society was about to finuh . acd the world to begin anesr . When Kin ? a depart , they must car ? tilth GsSs with them . Let the dead burv their dead .

In ibe days of falling Paganism , the Roman Pontiffs , l = ke unto the Catholic ¥ : \ ts , i , wfco Uits tbe names of Jehovah , of JnpUer , and of Tdari , aiso exhumed ancient foreign got * , ans disturbed the ashes of ihe Egyptian Pantheon , to def « : d themselves ajains * , tbe future TV- ** 1 __ ^ - » ¦• _ _ i th
, » V . * n , as now . tbe new idea invaded the to * n and the vrcr ' sl , urlem d arbem . Even about the Cffiiars then-. selves in ihs palaces snd tbe teaipSes , in tae camps and in the clij , pans , pUlascp ^ ers , and craters were roarked with the sign .. { tbe idea . Tns woilil Wcs unders ^ ' m a new binh , which caused aa ardent and invincible jouih ; o circulate in the simls of men . The impatient revolution wes everywhere , with Virgi ! , Seneca , or Cicero , as well as with the Christians , anacken , in front and ia rear ; and underccintd by its defend rs and guardians , the oW edifice could not but fall
So is u now , Earops has tad her glerions re-birth ; atd for tnrea centuries , philosophy leuers , ard art , all the mamsesiat ' ums of human geaiiss , bave been insurgent against the dogma of tfee Middle Ages . The Churcli herself has fdnn&rd the most terrible destroyers of Catholicism : — Ln ' . be- , Rabelais , Pascal , Fenelon , Bosscet . Since Galileo and Bacon—since Moatai gna and Descar tes—since Shakespeare a « a Cervantes—sines Mol ; e-e and Lafontaine—since Lejb < iz and Spinoza—sinea Voltaire and Rousseau—since Saint Simon and Fourier , to speak only of the dead , the God of Gregory TIL , is no more inviolable than the God of Mnse . % or the Go * of Nero and Archbishop Sihour .
The God of Young Humanity is before her , whilst Catholicism has left its God behind it ; so that the farther Catholicism has marched , tbe more dissent has become its God , until it sees him aad knows him no more . The Humanity of the nineteenth century lo&ks in the li ght of tbe future , and springs forward with enthusiasm , as of old the shepherds and t ? e magi hastened towards ; he radiant star of the new-born God . Humanity feeh herself relieved from the orig inal foe ; she feels in ber-elf the permanent revelation that the Catholic heresy attributes to an exceptionable incarnation of the Divinity . Sbe contains tbe ditine life , in time and in space , in her unity and in each of her members . Consequently , the authority of reflation , on which was founded tha dogma of Catholic Society , is annulled , the old religious and political world will disappear , and the new one take its place .
With the dogma of the fall and revelation , ' that great illuuunation of soul s / as Archbishop Sibour calls it , man being imperfect , end society , on the contrary , being accounted perfect , arrogated to itself the right and duty to gmde man , even by fores . Thwwss the origin of the oppression , moral , intellectual , and physical , which characterises Catholicism , and SbSSJS to I 3 ised ' andwhose ** - ftta JlVS ? 1 ° 7 * a lWiE 8 Humanity possesses within herself the type of truth , it appertains to her to right imperfect society , and to mate it more and more conformable to justice and to reason . Such is the abyss which separates the Catholic past from the future , which Socialism will affirm and realise
. Catholicism seeks unity by fares and obedience : Socialism will find it by intelligence and liberty . The principle of authority , j ' Catholicism , exlstinr else-?* ^ Hamanily , delivered the world to division and servitude . The faithful and the subjects logically appertained to the interpreters of revelation , and to their executors , to the prissts atid to tbe soldiers , to the pope and torthe empsrer , to the government , religious , and political . Thas did it perpetuate itself during ages of kuomc > . and unsay , ana it will be thus , by a cruel and logical necessity until Humanity escapes from the doctrine of the fall and of divine right .

We must choose between them . We are in presence , not only of the old regime disguised under the perfidious conceptions of moderate raonarchies , or under the sceptical and cowardly hypocrisies of constitutional religions , but of the old dogma entire ; the isasteiB of Use old world at thi 3 moment sus t ain themselves as a scourge , cursing and crushing in concert the living qualities of men and of peoples , tbe conquests of history and of genius . Every Socialist , every Democrat , every Republican , ersry Revolutionist is compelled to recognise or to deny Catholicism . Not for or hy such or such fragment of political organisation—for or by such or such piece of social mecha-Bism—for or by such or such speculative idea , do they work —but act on the very principle of the doctrine which oppresses the world .
Let us rai 3 e ourselves , then , to the height of a principle , of a philosophy , of a religion , which shall give birth to a political system , a society entirely new . To the ensemble of tbe old Catholic dnprca , condemned by human reason , oppose the ensemJ / e of the Doctrine created by tt . e human mind . To the God of Force and Chance oppose the God of Liberty and Justice ; to the God of Battles , the God of Lihonr and of Fraternity ! The time approaches when the biassed eagles will utter the sinister cry of battle . Let us prepare to break their wings , borne np by the wind of hatred and of pride . May the bird of prey fall under the shaft of the tiue religion , which is named Socialism and Humanity . ' The revolutinnarv Titan ceases not to stir under the
mountain which ctushtB him , ' as the ' Ucivers' has said , while speaking of the / e / e of the 10 : h of May . Ah , well to employ the Pagan symbols resuscitated by the Archbishop , and by his journal , may the Titsn , tbe Eon of the earth , fear not to scale the heavens ! In hoc signo vinces ! It is on that condition alone that we will vanquish * the Priest and the Soldier , ' Cawar and his false Gods 1 In the name of the Socialist Union .

Evert Man das his own Bubbly Jock . —Sir Walter Scott was strolling forth with his trusty crony , Sir Adam Ferguson , the question ran upon the happiness or the reverse in different stations in life , Ferguson maintaining that there were certain fortunate beings who were exempt from iV . e common troubles to which others were exposed , and Scott holding the opposite argument . As they wa'ked in the fine sunshiny day , they cams up with the privileged " fool" of the place , whom Scott immediately addressed , and something like the following cokquy ensue < : — Scott . —TYe ' el , Andrew , how are you ? Andrew . —We ' eJ , very vre el , thank ye , sheriff , for speiring . 5 co « . —Naebody harms you , 1 hope , Andrew ! are a' the folks careful about ye . and kind to ve /

Andrew . —Hey ! ay ! plenty to eat , and a gude coat on raybaek ! Isu ' t it , sheriff ? Scott . —Yes , Andrew , and I am glad to see it . But as everybody is so kind to you , and yon are every way aae weel off , I suppose I mu 3 t just conclude that you are one of the happiest of human creatures , and can have nothing to distress you . Andrew ( hastily . )—Na , na , haud ye there , Bheriff ! It would he a' very happy if it war na for that Bubbly Jock ( turkey-cock . ) The hairns use me well enough , but they canna' help roaring and shouting v ; heu they see that cursed brute chasing tae about with his neck a' in fury , and his gobble , gobble , going mough to frighten the de'il . He ' s after me every day , anil makes me perfectly n iser&ble . Scott . — (" turning to Sir Adam ) . —Ah , Ferguson in this life of curs be assured that every man has his own Bubbly Jock !
" Wood is the thing after all , " as the man with a pine leg said , when the mad dog bit it . Salt and Water —Mr . Jerdan reports in his anto-Diograpny the following from the conversation " of the droir old Lord Elcho . " " I once presided ( said he ) over a jolly compary when it was more customary than it now is , and ' the tnore ' stbe pity , to call upon every guest in turn for a song cr a tale , under ths penalty , in case of refusal or non-compliance , of a strong tumbler of £ alt-and-wnter . I , at last , came to a contumacious chap , who protested that he could neither sing a song nor tell a ta ' e . Tin ' s would not pas 3 with mo , and especially as I bad had ray eye on tlis Billy for some time , and did not at all like his jeering leers and scoffing manners . So I said to him peremptorily , 'Well , sir , if ve can do neither
the one nor the ot ' uer , you must oblige me by tossing off the tumbler I will now order to be brought to you . ' ' Stop , ' he cried hastily , ' let me try first ! ' Silence ensued , and ha proceeded : — ' There vra ^ once a tVief who chanced to find a church door open , of which carelessness he took advantage and stepped in , not to worship , but to carry off whatever of portable he could find . He put the cushions uuder his arms , hid as much as he could , and impudently wrapt the pulpit cloth about him like a plaid . But lo and behold , whilst be was thu 3 employed , the sexton happened to pas 3 by , aud seeing ihe church door open , got the key and locked it ; so that wh ? n <> ur sacrilegious friend thought he had
KOtbing to do but to slip out as he slipped in , he discovered tbat he was a close prisoner , aud all esress stopped . What to do he knew not ; but at last it s ' ruck him that he might succeed in lotting himself down to the ground by tbe bell rope . Accordingly , with it in band , he swung gently off ; and you may be certified set up a ringing that alarmed the neighbourhood . In short , he was captured with his booty upon him as saon as he reached mntUer earth ; upon which , looking up to the bell , as I now look up to your lordship , he remonstrated , ' * Had it not been for your long tongue and empty head , I might have escaped '"'—I have never ventured to insist upon a gentleman drinking salt-an J-water since . "
" Pa , will you answer me a question ? " —Certainly , my boy . " "Well , Pa , is the world round ? " "Yes , of course . " ' " Well , then , Pa , if the world is round , how can it come to an end ? " "There now—that'll do ; you can run out and play . " Dobba says , if everything wns confined to its proper place half the women who travel on our railways would take a seat jn the " baggage" car . Women asd Mex . —Women , and especially young women eilher believe falsely or judge harshly of men in one thing ' Tou . young loving creature , who dresm of your lover by night and by day—you fancy he does the same of you . He doe 3 not—he cannot , nor is it right , he should . One Lour perhaps , your presence has captivated him , subdued him even to weakness ; the r . ext , he will be in the
worldwork-, ing hu way ss a man amnnj : men , forgetting for the time being your very existence . Possibly , if you saw him , his outer self hard and stern , so different from the self you know , would strike you with pain . Or else hia inner and diviner self higher than you dream of , would turn coldly from your inl significant love . Yet a-1 this must be ; you have no right to murmur . You cannot rule a man ' s soul—no wonum ever did—except by holding unworthy sway over unworthy passions . Be content if you lie in his heart as that heart lies in his bosom-deep and calm , its bearings unseen , uncounted and oftetimes nnfelt , but still giving life to his whole being . A military officer being told lately by a phrenologist that he hadtte organ of locality very large , innocently replied Very likely , I was fifteen years a colonel in the local mi ' litia . "
Charles Dickens enjoys an income greater probably than was ever before derived from literature by an autnor . The first edition of " Bleak House , " which comprised 2-3 , 000 copies , was swept from tho bookseller ' s counters at once The second edition of 20 , 000 soon followed . It is probable that this work affords him £ 1 , 000 per month . Then Mr Dickens is supposed to derive £ 100 a week from tiia sale of " HouseboU Words , ' and a large sum from the sale of his otner writings . At a very moderate estimate , therefore it may he conjectured that his income is £ 20 , 000 a year—an income considerably greater than that of Sir Walter Scott in the height of his renown . Dickens spends freely , entertains liberally , oestows bountifull y , and his good fortune has made him no enemies . —j \ ew y ^ p aptr ^ Mr .
