of a balance between this outlay, this investment of public wealth, and the productive power; if the latter was vigorous, elastic, and increasing, then the former might be advantageously extended. Well, in the year '52 the amount of foreign trade showed an increase of 333,000,000 (francs) over 1851, although in '51 it had reached its maximum. "A few years of deficit seemed of little consequence when the resources increased at such a rate, especially if a large portion of the deficit was owing to outlays on works of public utility, which could be considered as a more or less profitable outlay."

Besides the large increase of the productiveness of the country, another remarkable effect of the stimulation generally given by the Government to enterprise has been the growth of a tendency to financial speculation. Paris now bids fair, we are told, to become the financial as well as the political capital of Europe. England has no longer her monopoly of loans to needy potentates and governments, and many a scheme which has been rejected in London finds supporters among the more daring speculators of the Bourse. Apart from the enormous amount of capital, almost exclusively French, absorbed in various internal undertakings, French capital affords Italian and Spanish. loans, supports Italian railways-Lombard, Venetian, South Austrian, Roman, Spanish, and Swiss. And this mania for speculation has had a moral influence far beyond the mere accumulation' and employment of capital; it has evoked a hitherto unknown amount of individual energy, and Frenchmen are beginning dimly to comprehend enterprises in which the State does not take the initiative.

But the chief result of all the impulse that has thus been given to commerce and manufacture is that it has solved that problem which seemed destined to overwhelm the French nation in incessant revolution-the great difficulty of the droit au travail-the employment of the workman. "Socialism," says our Flâneur," means bread in the eyes of the ouvrier; bread he now gets, and oblivious of theory he is content with the fact." Many are found to maintain that this is only a lull in the great French conflict between capital and labour; the Flâneur is of opinion that there can be no doubt that the struggle has ceased, and that both sides are anxious to avoid whatever might remind of it. This is probably somewhat too positive. Ten years is not a sufficient time to enable us to say with so much assurance that the demise of a vicious theoretical socialism is completely exorcised from the mind of the French artizan. But whether this be so or not, it is at least clear that the present policy of promoting a spirit of commercial and manufacturing enterprise is the only system out of which we can hope for the political amelioration of the French people. Too long have they been permitted to indulge in the wild theories of doctrinaires and ideologists, believing that happiness can be produced by forms of government unaided by the energy and industry of the individual citizen. They are now beginning to understand these things better; and, as we close the Flâneur's admirable volume, we have only one melancholy reflection, and this is, that the work that now looks so satisfactory and so hopeful may collapse in wholesale ruin by the death of one man. Whatever may have been his crimes, and however numerous his demerits, he is the only ruler that France has ever had who comprehends the necessities of his situation.

Arthur Hugh Clough.*

NE of the most significant and the worst conceits of the time is its conceit of poetry. The rhapsodies of scepticism, unbelieving thoughts, blasphemous words, the thoughts dark and hopeless, the words obscure and twisted into all manner of unnatural and pedantic shapes,-the very metres employed showing a restless craving after something new,

and in their happiest use falling harsh and rugged on the English ear: this is some account of a good deal of what goes by the name of poetry in England now.

"the

There is a great deal of this sort of stuff in the "poems" of Arthur Hugh Clough. Now the intellectual life of many of us has its period of doubt. There comes a time when the world seems a painful enigma-a labyrinth devoid of clue. In the mind of Arthur Clough this state was unhappily permanent: and there seems little reason to suppose that, had he lived longer, he would have escaped from it. Not only was he perplexed by riddle of the universe," but by questions of practical life. His motto to the Amour de Voyage,-"Il doutait de tout, même de l'amour,"-furnishes the key to his nature. He was a poetical casuist. Amours de Voyage, the longest of his recent poems, relates in prolix hexameters how a loiterer in Italy met an English girl there, fancied himself in love with her, but was by no means sure of it; and finally, losing sight of her by the accidents of travel, gave her up with perfect calmness. Thus writes Claude, the hero, to his friend Eustace:

"After all, do I know that I really cared about her?

Do nothing more, good Eustace, I pray you. It only will vex me, Take no measures. Indeed, should we meet, I could not be certain;

All might be changed, you know. Or perhaps there was nothing to be changed."

Really Miss Mary Trevellyn might think herself for tunate in escaping from so very indecisive a lover. Al though Amours de Voyage contains some fine passages, the subject is quite unworthy of poetic treatment; and we soon weary of reading the letters of a gentleman whose chief characteristics are unbelief and weakness of will. To quote Mr. Tennyson's noble lines :

"He seems as one whose footsteps halt,
Toiling in immeasurable sand."

Clough's Pyrrhonism was inalienable from his temperament; and, as his hero doubted of the love between man and woman, so the poet doubted of that greater love on which the universe depends. In most of his minor poems this theme is dominant. Take The Questioning Spirit :

"Dost thou not know that these things only seem ?—

I know not, let me dream my dream.

Are dust and ashes fit to make a treasure?

I know not, let me take my pleasure.

What shall avail the knowledge thou hast sought?

I know not, let me think my thought.

What is the end of strife?—

I know not, let me live my life.

How many days or e'er thou means't to move?—

I know not, let me love my love.
Were not things old once new?—
I know not, let me do as others do.
And when the rest were over past,

I know not, I will do my duty, said the last."

This final line may be taken as an embodiment of Clough's creed. Having framed and fixed for himself the lowest conception of duty, he never went farther. He never escaped from this "true ignorance." He always "did his duty" well, and seems to have enjoyed life in his way, and made many friends; but he had nothing in the way of belief save that

"We are such stuff

As dreams are made on, and our little life
Is rounded with a sleep."

Some of his lyrics, written at sea, have by their vague suggestiveness an attraction for morbid and unhealthy tempers.

"Where lies the land to which the ship would go?
Far, far ahead, is all her seamen know.

And where the land she travels from? Away,
Far, far behind, is all that they can say."

Here the mystery of ocean is made to indicate that mystery of the universe which always perplexed the poet, haunting his most serene moments. The same feeling

"Come home, come home! And where a home hath he
Whose ship is driving o'er the driving sea?
Through clouds that mutter, and o'er waves that roar,
Say, shall we find, or shall we not, a shore
That is, as is not ship or ocean foam,

Indeed our home?"

Clough's scepticism ran through all his actions, and he may fairly be said to have mistaken his vocation. By nature he was a poet, as The Bothie of Toper-na-Fuosich suffices to prove; but he surrendered himself to dull forms of labour, and his last literary work was a careful revision of Dryden's Plutarch. Comparing his later poems with the immortal Bothie, we find with regret that the life of the man was withering away in him. That poem, simple as Wordsworth, idyllic as Theocritus or Goëthe, full of the joyous spirit of young Oxford men, fresh with the cool breezes of the Highland hills in autumn, is unique in English literature. It is not too much to say that in mere originality it transcends all the writings of Mrs. Browning, and Mr. Tennyson. There is an almost Homeric freedom in it. Its hero, Philip Hewson, is to some extent a reflection of the author. Chartist and poet, with paradoxical notions about the duties of women, and with a tendency to fancy himself in love with every pretty face he encounters, he is only saved from a life of indecision and flirtation by meeting a young lady with somewhat stronger will than his own. Elspie, a Highland lassie, supplies the element wanting in Philip's character. The story is delightfully told. Although we do not agree with Mr. Palgrave that Clough inherited a double portion of Wordsworth's spirit, we admit that he was almost as true and hearty a lover of nature as the greater poet.

Clough's humour and subtlety are not inferior to his picturesqueness: the love-scenes between Elspie and Philip are very subtle and beautiful. When she compares herself to one side of the arch of a bridge, building itself up slowly and toilfully to meet another from the other bank-till "a a great invisible hand" drops the keystone, and produces "a queer happy sense of completeness ❞— the idea is so good that we do not pause to inquire whether Highland lassies often have such notions when they are sweethearting. The same may be said of her comparison of Philip to the sea, and herself to a "quiet stream of inland water," forced to mingle with the tyrannous tide. If the daughters of Highland blacksmiths talk in this poetico-metaphysical style, wooing must be no joke in the braes of Lochabar.

The fastidiousness which naturally grew upon a man of Clough's peculiar character led him to make many unnecessary alterations in the Bothie. He changed its title because "Toper-na-Fuosich" has some ludicrous meaning. He eliminated some of the slang, which gives so truthful an air to the poem. It is a great mistake for a man at forty to think he can improve a poem written before he was thirty. He may make it more elegant and accurate, but every touch will decrease its freshness and vigour. In Clough's case this was particularly true, for the buoyancy of his youth departed too soon, leaving only a sentimental melancholy.

Clough's politics were as indefinite as his theology, but with a touch of republicanism in them. He thought the United States "the happiest country going," not having lived to see the tragical end of its greatness. Writing the Amours de Voyage at Rome, in 1848, he exclaims

"Honour to speech, and all honour to thee, thou noble Mazzini !"

This is not the place to discuss the amount of honour due to Mazzini; but it may be observed that English

the relations of Mazzini, Garibaldi, Victor Emmanuel, and Louis Napoleon. At the commencement of any of Garibaldi's wild enterprises our liberal journals gravely remonstrate with him for attempting to unsettle the Italian people. When he succeeds they write him down a hero who always embraces a just cause, and is always triumphant. When he fails they are in much distress to know what is to be done with him.

Clough was very fond of the hexameter, and has written many that are as good as such lines can be in English ; but he was too careless in the use of the metre to do much towards its naturalisation. His last poem is entitled Mari Magno, and consists of a series of tales supposed to be told on shipboard. They are very much in Crabbe's manner; one of them, The Clergyman's Tale, is very beautiful, and shows that the poet's conscience was still tender. Beautiful also is an interlude-Currente calamo-whence we quote the opening lines :

"Quick, painter, quick, the moment seize
Amid the snowy Pyrenees;
More evanescent than the snow,
The pictures come, are seen, and
Quick, quick, currente calamo.

go:

"I do not ask the tints that fill
The gate of day 'twixt hill and hill;
I ask not for the hues that fleet
Above the distant peaks; my feet
Are on a poplar-border'd road,
Where, with a saddle and a load,
A donkey, old and ashen-grey,
Reluctant works his weary way.
Before him still, with might and main
Pulling his rope, the rustic rein,
A girl: before both him and me
Frequent she turns, and lets me see
Unconscious, lets me scan and trace
The sunny darkness of her face

And outlines full of Southern grace."

His biographer tells us that he was "signalized and authenticated as a true Man by the broad seal of Nobleness." This is, we suppose, what is called " fine writing." What it may mean we do not profess to know; and, having belief in Revelation, it is, perhaps, not possible that we should. We are afraid that it is the scepticism of Mr. Clough rather than his "poetry" which has been his chief recommendation to some of his principal admirers. There is an English line worth all the hexameters of Mr. Clough's "poetry,”–

"No very great wit, he believed in a GOD."
