How many superior qualities are there not required for the making of such a man! Do you find, in any country, many of these diplomats of the ground ﬂoor, of these con summate negotiators speaking in the name of calicoes, of jewelry, of the cloth-trade, of wines, and frequently more skilful than the ambassadors, who, for the most part, have only empty forms? No one, in France, entertains any doubt concerning the incredible ability incessantly displayed by the travel ling drummers, these intrepid affronters of negations, who, in the farthermost borough, represent the genius of civilization and the Parisian inventions grappling with the good sense, the ignorance or the routine of the provinces. Can we ever forget here those admirable manoeuvres which knead the intelligence of the populations, by treating by word of mouth the most refractory masses, and which resemble those indefatigable polishers whose files lick into smoothness the hardest porphyries! If you would wish to know the power of the tongue and the con vincing pressure brought to bear by phrases upon the most rebellious ecus, those of the small landed proprietor buried in his country mud, listen to the discourse of one of these grand dignitaries of the Parisian industry for the profit of which trot about, strike and function these intelligent pistons of the steam-engine called Speculation.

for full orchestra Prologo e Fantasia was commissioned by Mstislav Rostropovitch and the National Symphony Orchestra in Washington D.C., first performed in London by Rostropovitch and the National Symophony Orchestra. The work consists of three sections. The first movement forms the Prologo, which is slightly reminiscent of the French Overture. The Fantasia opens briskly with characteristic Waltonian energy, and leads, after a climax, into the thematically connected final section Fuga finta (or 'make-believe fugue').

The measure and quality of the information furnished merchants are carefully defined in the statutes of the organization; and, in order to obtain this information itself, the Office has invoked, under the name of co/n.'cz'//c/'s du rmmmrrc cxtcents'rzz'cu/', the concurrence of notable merchants and manufacturers who are best qualified by their experience, their special aptitudes or studies, or the importance of their foreign or domestic dealings, to keep it fully informed on all matters in its jurisdiction. It has been suggested, however, that these individuals might not be altogether disposed to furnish, for the benefit of a possible rival, all the secrets of their trade, and that the Office would probably do better to appeal to the different chambers of commerce, syndical associations, chambers of arts and manufactures, and members of the consular and diplomaticicorps. Of this foreign commerce, so assiduously cultivated, some practical expression of the activity may be seen on the Port Saint.'icholas, by the Louvre, on each side of the Pont des Saints-Peres.

Yet, things had been so organised, that the sailing of three frigates to three isolated points, which it was out of our power to watch, with twenty thousand stand of arms each, would not only have broken, for ever, the.
