First, that I may be allowed to abstain from strategy, for I confess I am no strategist - indeed, during the whole time the siege lasted, I did not so much as possess a plan of my own for the Deliverance of Paris. The second is permission to tell my story in my own way, without invention or embellishment; and the third, that I may be relieved from the irksome responsibility of passing sentence of con.

Mr. Wallace, an Irish contractor, being asked what he thought of the animals as food for tr00ps, said, Well, all I know is that they would not steal them in England. They average eightpence per pound Ireland and England can sell in Paris at that price. The same gentleman told me that he once bought a hunter for seven-and sixpence, and. Won twenty-one Steeplechases with him. He also once cleared a brook so wide that a pious man said his prayers before he took off, and had time to repeat the Lord's Prayer in the air.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from My Private Diary During the Siege of Paris, Vol. 2 of 2 Government has been forced to put the 20th arrondissement in commission, it having chosen as Maire and assistants Ranvier, Flourens, Milliere, and Le Francais, all of whom are in custody for an attempt on the 31st of October to reproduce the drama of the 4th of September; the right of translating which seems to have been reserved. All, I say: I should write, all hut Flourens, who agrees with Tacitus, that "distance dignifies dignity," and so, not to put too fine a point on it, has cut and run. Horrible abuse of the Empire and the Emperor - admission to me a Voreille by a National Guard, that the Emperor has been the best friend France has had for ages, and that to drive France you must put the reins down to the bottom bar.

And when Spriggins said death, he gave a horrible gurgle, and made a crackling noise with his lips, which sounded much like the unwelcome arrival of a needle-gun bullet among the quivering tendons and sinews of some trembling victim. Allowing for exaggeration, the prospect was not engaging. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

The situation, how ever, was so interesting that I stayed ou from day to day, until I found the German armies drawing their lines of investment round the city. Had I supposed that I should have been their prisoner for nearly five months, I confess I should have made an effort to escape, but I shared the general illusion that - one way or the other - the siege would not last a month.

Since then the palace has been practically uninhabited. Napoleon neglected it on account of its great expense, and it was not until Louis Philippe's reign that the buildings were partly restored and the great historical picture gallery established. Versailles in 1783 witnessed the conclusion of the treaty by which England recognized the independence of the United States. The Germans took possession of it early in the siege of Paris in 1870, and made it their headquarters. Here Frederick William, King of Prus sia, commanded, and on January 18, 1871, with im pressive ceremonies was first saluted as the Emperor of Germany. Here Prince Bismarck and Jules Favre conducted the negotiations by which Paris capitulated and peace was restored between Germany and France. The Germans left in March, and Versailles then be came the seat of the restored French government, and from it the army operations were directed against the Communists in Paris, by Marshal macmahon.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Easy French History: Edited for School Use Many teachers of French find that their stu dents do not understand and appreciate the works which they are called upon to read, because of their ignorance of the most ordinary facts of French history. How and when to give this necessary information has become a problem everywhere, and it is to aid in the solution of this problem that the present book has been pub lished. The work of a French teacher is, of course, to teach the French language, but the instructor who sees this task too narrowly will almost certainly fail. Many questions arise dur ing a year's reading which demand knowledge of an historical nature, and, although the teacher may do his duty as far as his time and the size of his class will allow, it is nevertheless only too true that students obtain little or no connected infor mation, unless such information is contained in the text which they read. The explanation given by the teacher in reading some episode of the Revolution or incident of the siege of Paris may be clear and to the point, but, as the majority of his listeners can in no way connect the facts with the past or with the present, the explanation as well as the story is forgotten before the next day.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Collection of British Authors, Vol. 255: Shut Up in Paris 5th September, 1870. - I think it was Madame de Stael who said, "The French are quick to discern on which side power lies, and swift to range themselves upon that side; they love success before all other things." On the morning of the 3rd the "discerning" people were at their wits end, and their "ranging" disposition was utterly confounded. Public opinion was literally suspended. The newspapers without news continued to assert that something tremendous was going to happen for the benefit of France. Meanwhile the boulevards and cafes were crowded; and the stream of passersby was arrested by groups of people who stood still to talk and to gesticulate eagerly; while the loungers eddied round them for a little time, and then continued their own languid course. There was no more singing or shouting, the strains of the 'Marseillaise' had died away. Even the gamins had ceased to whistle it. A feeling of restless suspense pervaded all ranks. The official news was in the stereotyped tenor: "Bazaine and MacMahon have made their junction; to-morrow we shall have glorious news."
