NATIONAL UNITYIT MUST NOT BE SURRENDERED. [From the N. Y. “Evening Post" Feb. 7, 1863.] New York, February 7th, 1863. To Parke Godwin, Esq.: I send you herewith a translation from the French of a remarkable paper, originally published in the Revue Rationale of Paris. It has seemed to me that, in this critical hour of our national history, no better service could be rendered the country than to give it, in our own language, the widest circulation amongst the people. To this end may I not ask you to give it a place in the columns of the Evening Post ? The author is M. Edouard Laboulaye, member of the Institute and Professor of Legislation Comparee in tile College of France—a man holding the highest position in the first institution of the world, the University of France—and whose whole life has been devoted to the study of the subject of which he writes. It may not be generally known that the lectures of the professors in all the colleges and schools of the .University of France are open and free to all who may chose to attend them, so that the seances of such men as Laboulaye, Michelet, Quinet, and other eminent scholars and scientists are crowded by the most thoughtful of the men and women of all the nations of the world, who make Paris their resort for the winter.
