Excerpt from The Bonaparte Plot: Why It Was Engaged In, and How It Was Accomplished, An Official Narrative and Justification of the Events of December, 1851 Trade and labour, and the conduct of government, had become impracticable. Agriculture, industry, commerce, the landed interest, constituted authorities, the social system itself - all seemed at their last gasp. As for the railways, the Assembly put a stop to their construction by ceaseless delays and by systems incapable of being carried into effect. How could the authorities exert those strong and only means possessed by them for the suppression of Socialism They were held in check by the Assembly by the refusal of a law for the cashiering of unworthy mayors. As regarded the gratitude and consideration due to the army's ancient services, the Assembly refused to ao knowledge them, by rejecting the petition, modest as it was, tendered with a view to aid the glorious state of privation endured by our old soldiers.
