Somnambulist’s Vision of French Political Turmoil
A somnambulist claims to read thoughts and foresees a new Assembly voting to return to Paris, decide on Marshal MacMahon’s wars, and a cabinet clash leading to dissolution. The Assembly convicts the marshal for high treason, sparking a Paris struggle where the army defeats the representatives. One general falls, a second takes command, and the army proclaims him winner. The vision ends with a threat of assassination.
