I want to add a route to a machine in france (194.222.222.222). It will need to go out of interface hme0 and be routed to france via a router which sits on the internal lan (172.19.12.4) So the packets I send out should have a source address of 172.19.12.58 (hme0), which the french network understands and can route back to. I used command

route add -host 194.222.222.222 172.19.12.4
Kelam is correct about your broadcast...and I'll add that netmasks can mess you up to.

As far as the command you have - you don't specify going out hme0. Since you don't, it takes the default route (from qfe0). Your snoop shows that the ping is going from

12:42:28.54070 195.111.222.178 -> 194.222.222.222 ICMP Echo request
(even though you snooped hme0...that part is confusing me)

I believe one of the following will work (although your netmask and broadcast can still mess you up):
route add 194.222.222.222 172.19.12.58 0
OR
route add net 194.222.222.0 172.19.12.58 0
