The following treatise, intended to refute the dangerous doctrines entertained by a large class of Frenchmen, bas recently appeared in the columns of the Constitutionnel; and as such doctrines are not without their advocates and supporters in our country, it is hoped that this endeavour to present M. Thiers' able work in an English dress, will not be unacceptable to those who may be desirons of gaining information relative to the new movement against Society. Much has been heard of Communism, Socialism, and the Right to Labour, but few, perhaps, are familiar with the meaning of the words. Happily for us their advocates are ignorant and obscure; yet, as suffering is credulous, they find listeners, whose numbers according to the testimony of all parties, are rapidly increasing. Such will ever be the case in times of distress : the drowniog man catches at a straw; the starving mechanic is ready for any scheme that promises not only to alleviate but to remove his evils for ever. Fourier, George Sand (Madame Dudévant), Louis Blanc, Cabet, Proudhon, and Considérant are the chief apostles of the new movement: their theories may differ, but their object is the same, " to suppress the miseries of the people." A most desirable object, and one which should be uppermost in the miod of every statesman and philanthropist; but the followiog pages will show to what the schemes of the new school, if carried out, would inevitably lead. <strong>...</strong></p>Thiers Adolphe - The history of the French revolutionurn:md5:d341828d347e0cbe181c53ff71145e922012-09-13T12:13:00+01:002014-05-05T15:44:47+01:00balderThiers AdolpheFranceRevolution <p><img src="https://balderexlibris.com/public/img/.Thiers_Adolphe_-_The_history_of_the_French_revolution_s.jpg" alt="" /><br />

Of all the native historians —and their name is Legion— who have written on the subject of the French Revolution, the two most distinguished are decidedly Messrs. Thiers and Mignet. Both these eminent men are remarkable for the impartial tone of their narratives, considering how recent are the stirring events of which thej treat; for the accuracy of their details; for the skill with which they compare and sift conflicting evidence, and the general justness of their conclusions; and for the luminous and succinct manner in which they trace, step by step, the progress of the most awful moral convulsion that the world has yet known. They do not mix themselves up with the strife, or take part in the feverish emotions of the chief combatants, but stand aloof, as shrewd and cool lookers-on. They enlist neither under the banner of the Gironde nor of the Mountain; they swear neither by the sovereignty of Louis, nor by that of the People; they are neither Orleanists, nor Septembrizers, nor Terrorists; but act upon the broad, enduring principle of giving fair play to all parties. <strong>...</strong></p>
