Sainte Beuve, like many others, seems to think so. But we remember perfectly well that, having asked Proudhon, in August, 1848, if he did not consider himself indebted in some respects to his fellow countryman, Charles Fourier, we received from him the following reply: "I have certainly read Fourier, and have spoken of him more than once in my works; but, upon the whole, I do not think that I owe anything to him. SAINT BERT LIKE MANY OTHERS SEEMS TO THINK SO BUT WE REMEMBER PERFECTLY WELL THAT HAVING ASKED PRUDENT IN AUGUST EIGHTEEN FORTY EIGHT IF HE DID NOT CONSIDER HIMSELF INDEBTED IN SOME RESPECTS TO HIS FELLOW COUNTRYMAN CHARLEFURRIER WE RECEIVED FROM HIM THE FOLLOWING REPLY I HAVE CERTAINLY READ FOURIER AND HAVE SPOKEN OF HIM MORE THAN ONCE IN MY WORKS BUT UPON THE WHOLE I DO NOT THINK THAT I OWE ANYTHING TO HIM
t that time there were many of them, would have been glad to have proved him a renegade and a recanter. Proudhon, in his work on "Justice," gives some interesting details of this lawsuit. In possession of the Suard pension, Proudhon took part in the contest proposed by the Academy of Besancon on the question of the utility of the celebration of Sunday. His memoir obtained honorable mention, together with a medal which was awarded him, in open session, on the 24th of August, 1839. The reporter of the committee, the Abbe Doney, since made Bishop of Montauban, called attention to the unquestionable superiority of his talent. "But," says Sainte Beuve, "he reproached him with having adopted dangerous theories, and with having touched upon questions of practical politics and social organization, where upright intentions and zeal for the public welfare cannot justify rash solutions." Was it policy, we mean prudence, which induced Proudhon to screen his ideas of equality behind the Mosaic law?
