"AFTER FORTY YEARS"
FRENCH BUGLES BLOWN IN ALSACE London, March S. The correspondent of "The Times" in Paris says ;—"After forty years of sufferings, Alsace-Lorraine, has heard the bugles of justice and victory blown, and has responded as well as sho could-.-Five thousand of her sons hare crossed to France, and now tho silence of a cemetery reigns, except on the radiant patch opposite Belfort, embracing fifteen miles of reconquered Alsace. M. Poinoase (the French President) recently visited it.
"Old people wept for joy, and children cheered in the streets and fluttered flags that had been hidden in the cellars for forty years. It was a touching welcome, disproving the assertion that tho second generation had grown lukewarm. It is declared that the people' are more anti-German than ever."—"Times" and Sydney "Sim" Services.
