PARAGRAPH ON FRANCE

EXAMINER, 10 APR., 1831, P. 232

This unheaded editorial comment refers to a letter signed “M” from the Examiner’s Paris Correspondent, Pierre Martin Maillefer, in which Maillefer points to the growth of a republican spirit in France, anticipates a republic with Lafayette at its head, and ends with a bitter denunciation of the corruption and duplicity of Louis Philippe’s government and a personal attack on the king and Casimir Périer. The letter (pp. 231-2) is headed “Foreign Intelligence. (From the Correspondent of the Examiner)” and dated 2 Apr. The item is not included in Mill’s bibliography, but is listed as “Paragraph on France” in the Somerville College index. Though the page number is there given as 233, this paragraph on p. 232 is enclosed in square brackets in the bound set.

the state of feeling amongst the young men of France, and the most estimable of the old patriots, is pourtrayed in the letter of our Parisian correspondent. There are no new events of importance of which he does not treat.
