Book excerpt: Excerpt from Recollections of Paris, Vol. 1 of 2 Robert ls Fort would have been called on to fill the throne. More good luck for the Third Republic: no disturb ance followed the removal of its Presidents. There was no guillotining as in the days of Louis XVI; no occupation by the Allies as when Napoleon I. Was forced to abdicate, and afterwards to seek safety in flight; no three days of July and gutters running blood, as when Charles X. Beat a hasty retreat and sought the protection of the British Lion he had so recently bearded by seizing on Algeria; there was no such fighting in the streets as when Louis Philippe, who also bearded the British Lion and then crossed over to England, was forced to abdicate; no terrible three days of June, as when Cavaignac restored order, and coup d'etat of December 2, as when the Second Republic was replaced by the Second Empire; no Sedan or insur rection such as preceded the establishment of the present order of things.
