The French Question.
This matter is now attracting the aU
tenlion of the civilized world. The
Uerald, in commenting on it, says:
" WhateTer may be the strength of the
Republic in France, or the programme
of the monarchical comerratiTes of the
Assembly in the diiplacement of Presi
dent Thiers, it is evident on all sides
that the imperialists hue 'great expec
tations ' of some change in the situation
under President MacMahon which will
bring them again into the foreground.
Nor does it appear that MacMahon
thinks, as Thiers thought, that, of all
things, it is essential to the internal
peace of France to keep the Bonapartes
ont of the country, and to expel them if

it appears that the sensational produc-
tion puousuea on inursaay list in tne
rail Mall Gazette, as an appeal from the
ex-mpress Eugenie to the French peo-
pie, in behalf of her son, is nothing but
a canard, and Pietri, being still in the
confidence of the ex-Empress, ought to
know. The canard, perhaps, served its
turn, as a newspaper bellnnger for a day,
but whether from a fri nd or an enemy
of tne Bonapartes, it can do them no
harm. France is quiet, MacMahon seems
to be fu'.ly the master of the held, with
the army at bis back; but there is no
telling what may be the next turn of
tbe wheel between him and the uncer
tainFrench assembly."
The following incidents in relation
to tht influence of music upon animals
are floating about newspapcrdom. We
do not vouch for the truth of the state
xnent, but they appear to have a chime
of truth about them. They can be re
ceived ad libitum, and should be read
with an adagio movement in order to
appreciate the harmony of the acci
dentals :
We remember how we have seen horses
InflnimppH hr mrnitv One at the moat
enjoyable runaways we ever experienced
can be directly traced to the influence
of music on a horse. We were driving
past where a band was playing, and the
music bad more influence on the horse
than we had. He didn't keep time,

lie oulj kept running. I never thought
music could have such influence on a
borw..
He beat time, too. That is to say, he
beat any time we ever saw him make
before, even before a sulky. We would
have kept tht horse to run agairst time,
if he hadn't run against a lamp post
and ruined bimself. Music influence a
horse ? Que not.
Horses are excellent musical perform
ers themselves, sometimes. We have
known a buDgr? horse to go through all
tbe bars ot an oat field correctly, and
never miss an oat, although the owner
of tbe oats misled all of his.
There is a power ot music in a tin
kettle when properly brought out. We
saw one I roubt out tbe other day by
some boy, who attached it to a dog's
tail. Talk about influence of music on
animals ! Wc never saw a dog so moved
in all our life.
Cats are 6traogcly influenced by the
music of a violin. It seems to aflect of
their entire system. In fact, there could 43

shown, and it commends itself to all the
people now on earth who believe in
progress, as a co-worker for the mate

The columns of The Post, are offered
to the advertising public as a first class
investment for liberal dealers, who wish
to extend their trade. Such men eschew
politics, and place their announcements
"where they will do the most good"
among the people. The Post does not
claim that it is the only advertising
medium in this city, but it does claim
that it enables merchants to reach
AliJL CLASSES
of buyers, which can be done in no
other way, and dealers consulting their
own interests will patronize the advo
cates of both political parties.
