One protects all sacred edices and all edices dedicated to culture, ngainst bill stickers; the other pun- ishes with heavy line any one who defaces a fresh bill; yet both were totally disregarded. On the front, for instance, of the police head- qua.rt(-rs were pasted hundreds of placards. On the steps of the Grand Opera every avail- able inch was covered with the names of Jacques and Gen. Boulanger. From the 13th oi January to the very day of the election, night and day. rival gangs of men posted and reposted, placarded and etfaced each other`: placards --I- um nmmm-v nf nnv livina 1.-nfnr " mm In the memory of any living voter." says one of the witnesses, such a plastering of Paris has not been seen."

Thus st the Louvre, under the statue of Hoche, there was a Jacques placard. and under that of Kleber 3 Gen. Boulnnger.

In London many women voted, giving them an exciting experience somewhat like that which lately agitated Boston, but in Paris the war was one of hill stickers. In America, Yankee or colonial, the voters are content with public meetings and processions, and men placard only to call attention to the meeting. They do these things differently in Paris. Their arguruents, their war cries, the names of their C:1n_didntes, even the details of their campaigns, are set forth `in grand plac-' ards, plain or many colored; and in this re- 'spect the campaign between Gen. Boulungcr, representing all the elements of discontent, and the bourgeois Jacques, who represented all the "let-well-enough-alone party, a cam- paign which terminated in the election of the :. 7th oi January, outdid all that went before. No expensewas spared. Within two weeks more than two million placards were posted. No place was sacred. In default of the " mantle of snow which is denied us by the elem- nnry of the soason,"says a Parisian paper, Paris is snowed under by a visitation of white and parti-colored paper."
