326 THE PENNY ILLUSTRATED PAPER 11
member of the Paris Bar in 1859, and soon acquired
fame as 21. forensic orator, being much employed in
political causes, both in the capital and the pro-
vince‘.-‘, while he obtained immense popularity among
c :1111 classes of the Parisians on account of hi
advanced Republican opinions. In March, lSG9, on
the occasion of the prosecution of the .E'u1rz11ci;mlion
navspnper at Toulouse, tl1e young and eloquent
orator received a most enthusiastic reception in the
south. At tl1e general election held tl1at year, M.
Gambetta
STOOD FOR PARIS AND MARSEILLTPQ,
as a representative of the “Irreconcilable Oppo-
sition,” and was returned for both constituencies, but
elected to take his seat for Marseilles. In January,
1870, he made a. violent attack on the Ollivier
Ministry, declaring that the day would come when
the majority of the people would, without appealing
to force, succeed in establishing: a Republic. On the
fall of the liznpire and the consequent formation of
tl1e Gov:-r11111ent of the National Defence in Sep-
tember, 1870, he was nominated
MINISTER OF THE INTERIOR,
and soon showed that he possessed administrative
powers of a high order. In one of our Engravings
the Paris National Guards are to be seen cheering
M. Gamhctta, General ’ 'rochu, and their colleagues.
on a serious misuu1lers:tanding took place
between the Delegate Government at Tours and
the National Defence Committee in Paris, regarding
the contemplated election of deputies, M. Gambetta
was selected by his colleagues to proceed to the
former city and explain the position of affairs in the
capital. Accordingly he left Paris on Oct. 7, 1
IN A BALLOON,
named the “Arniand-Barbes," accompanied by
a secretary and n aeronaut, passed safely over
the Prussian lines, and reached Rouen in the
evening. Proceeding witliout loss of time to Tours,
he there assumed the direction, and for some
months was virtually Dictator of all those provinces
of France which were free from the German in-
vaders. lie urged the people to continued re-
sistance,
RAISED THE ARMY OF THE LOIRE,
and after the Delegate Government had been obliged
to remove to Bordeaux, he issued ‘
vocation war zl oummcs, and resistance even to com-
plete exlitlustion. It is scarcely necessary to add
that his dream of driving out the Prussinns was not
realised, and that his volunteer armies were com-
pletely crushed by the well-trained forces of the
enemy. On Fe . 6, 1871, M . Arngo, Garnier-
Pages, and Engine Pelletau, members of the Paris
Government, arrived at Bordeaux, bringing with
hem a decree signed by all the members of the
Govemmsnt, which annulled that of M. Gan1be-tta,
by which certain classes of electors were disqualified
as candidates for the Assembly. In consequence of
this censure. M. Gmnbetta at once resigned his
functions. Shortly afterwards he proceeded to
Spain, and resided there for some months in seclu-
sion, but he soon returned to France and obtained a
seatjn the Assembly. His political conduct has been
c , ri oderation and reserve, but never-
theless he has constantly directed his eiorts to one
objiet-the definitive establishment of the Republic.
In September, 1872, he made a kindof Democratic
“ Pro ass” in the South of France, receiving a
semi-ofhufal welcome from the municipal authorities.
lie delivered a famous speech at Grenoble, which
was regarded as a manifesto and programme of the
Red party, amountingto a deolhlntion of waruguinst
the Government of the National Assembly. Another
famous speech of his was delivered at Aix in January,
1876. At the close of the year 1877 M. Gambetta
paid a visit to Rome, and had private conferences
with the leading statesmen of thdltalian Kingdom.
011 Sept. 11, 1877, he was condI:'mnedbytl1e eleventh

President of the Republic must either submit or
esign-“ I faiidrsoifse soumsttre. on so dcmettre.”
M. (iambetta was also prosecuted for his circular to
the electors of 1.uetvr'thxtietlmrrondim1e111e11t of Paris.
