en againcame an interruption. Some excited citizen was outside wavitiga large pistol and threatening to annihilate the Assembly if itdared to proceed to a vote before he got his rights. Never-theless, the vote went on, and M. Poincare was duly elected. Then, after the Assembly adjourned and when one of the de-feated candidates appeared and entered his carriage to go home,he was surrounded by a chain of members who, being in themood for still further diversion, celebrated his defeat by circlingabout the carriage and serenading him with a patriotic airhaving a somewhat derisive refrain, which intimated that thecandidate in the carriage should be driven to the CharentonLunatic Asylum.
