We enppose that, if all the truth cent.' be
known, there is no particular depth of affec-
tion os the part of the French Government.
just now towards nor Republic. A nups-
eion to tbat effect is indicated by the slight -

might have leen shown naturally and unob-
trusively, as well as handsomely-oe ha.
been noticed in'some of our journals ; and
the (act. •opon•ing it to be a fact, mite be
aeeounteJ for`perhsp•, as well by a enn-
',Mousness of something like ingratitude on

t •r•, ceneldering the promptitude with
which the GaIllebRepublic was taken into

unlikely that he may be silly enough to
think it not a bad move -rather indeed •
feather in his cap -to begin by offering an
teeth to the first of the Republics.
That the refusal to receive Mr. Rives,
would be an insult. we think can hardly be
gtrestinned : it clearly would be meant as
such, lied in them affairs the intention goes
for more than the act itself. But before we
hegin to rpeeolale upon the course that may
