I VMS 11124011112 •MICDOTISSIM PAZ So w r iN r ... M. de Bousset relates the following extraordinary scene that took place in his presence a short time before the divorce was pronounced between Napoleon and the Empress Josephine : " I was on service it the Tuileries from Monday, Now. 27th. That day, and the Tuesday and Wednesday follow ing, I was struck by a great change in the looks of the Empress, and the embarrassed silence of Napoleon. The only words he spoke during dinner were to ask me a few brief questions, the answers of which he appeared not to hear. On none of these days did the dinner last more thin ten minutes. On Thursday, the 50th, the storm burst. Their Maksties sat down to dinner; Josephine wore a large white bonnet tied under the chin, which partly concealed her feature's ; I could, however, per ceive that sire had been weeping, anJ with difficulty even then restrained her tears. She appeared to me like the image of grief and despair. The most profound silence reigned dtiring diluter: Napoleon and the Em press merely tasted for form's sake what was served to ' them. The only words uttered were thole addtessed to me by the Emperor," What kind of weather is it 2" and as he pronounced them he rose from table and went into the drawing-room, the Empress slowly following Trim. Coffee was brought in; when Napoleon, contras] to his usual custom, took the cup from the page, and made a sign that he wished to be alone. 1 immediately quitted the room; but feeling anxious and alarmed, I sat down in the salon de service (where their Majesties usually dined), on a chair near the door of the Em peror's drawing-room. I was observing, mechanically, the servants clearing the table, when soddenly I heard the Empress shriek in the most violent manner. The usher of the chamber, supposing she had fallen into a fit, was on the point of opening the door, but I pre. vented him, saying that the Emperor would call for assistance if he thought it necessary. I was then stand ing mar the door, when Napalms himself opened it, and, perceiving me, said, it, a, hurried manner. Come in, Bousset, and shut the door.' I entered, and saw the Empress stretched upon the carpet, and uttering the most heart-rending cries and moans.— ' No, I shall never survive it,' exclaimed the un fortunate woman. Napoleon said to me. Are you strong enough to take up Josephine, and carry her, by the private staircase, to her room, in order that she may rece.;ee the care and assistance that her siti/a flan requires? I obeyed, and raised up the Princess, who had fallen into a fit of hysterics. Aided by Na poleon, I took her in my arms; and he, taking one of the lights from the table, led the way through a dark passage towards a private staircase. Oncoming to the staircase, I observed to Napoleon, that it was too narrow to allow me to descend it with the Empress in my 'arms, without the danger .of falling. He immedi ately called the guardian of the portfolio, who was sta tioned night and day near one of the doors of his closet, which opened upon the landing-place of the private stair case. Napoleon gave him the light, and told him to go on before hips; he then took Josephine by the legs, and in this manner aided me to bring her down. At one moment, inconsequence of my sword having got be tween my legs, we were all sear tumbling down toge• doer; fortunately, however, we descended without acci dent, and deposited our precious burthen upon an ;ottoman in the bedchamber. The Emperor immediately rung for the Empress's woman. When in the draw iageroom above stairs I took the Empress in my arms, she ceased her cries, and I supposed that she had fainted away; but at the moment wneir I became embarrassed by my sword in the middle of the private staircase, I was obliged, to keep us both from falling, to clasp her more closely. I held the Empress in my arms, which were thrown round her waist, her back was against my breast, and her head reclining on my right shoulder. When she felt the efforts that I made to keep myself from falling, she said in a very low voice to me, You squeeze me too much.' I then judged there was nothing to tear for her health, and that she had not lost her motes for a single instant. Dosing the whole of this scene, I had been exclusively occupied with Jose phine, whose situation affected me, and could not ob serve Napoleon ; but when the women of the Empress came, he passed into a small saloon contiguous to Ithe bed-chamber, whither I followed him. His agitation and anz:ety were ex reme. In this moment of trouble he eeplained to me, in the following words, the cause of what had ;laded. The interest or France and my dynasty has forced my heart to act thus— idivorce has become an act of rigorous duty for me. I am the more pained by the la sc4ne.que wield de faire Josephine, as she must have been made acquainted three days ago by "[intense with the unfortunate obligation that compels me to separate myself from her. I pity her with all my heart—l thought her possessed of more character, and I was not prepared for this explosion of her sorrow.' In fact, the emotion that he felt forced him to leave a long interval between each phrase, in order to take breath. His words escaped him with diffi culty and without connection—Pis voce Was stifled, and lanitering, and his eyes filled with tears. All this scene ccupied from seven to eight minutes. Napoleon im mediately after sent for the physician Corvesart, the Q een Hortense, Cambaceres, and Foueit; and before going to his own apartment. he netrued to that 01 Josephine, whom he found calmer and &ore resigned."

Jima , The day before yesierday the Doke of San Carlos had a private. audience of his Majesty. The Doke de Villa Hermosa has received the Order of the Golden Fleece, as a reward for his services as our Ambassador at Paris. The rumours respecting the evacuation of Cadiz and Barcelona still continue to circulate. A trifling occurrence, in which oar Government is undoubtedly altogether innocent, yet which, neverthe less, will not fail to cause it much annoyance, forms at the present moment the subject of much remark in our diplomatic circles. The facts are these: A depot of Portuguese refugees, consisting of a Brigadier, a Colonel, and eight other Of f icers, and about 70 soldiers, lately received an order to march from Riga, where these troops were assembled, to two small villages between Salamanca and Navaredona (Old Castile), in each of which the half of this small depot. that is, 35 soldiers, four subalterns, and a supe rior Officer, were to remain ih garrison. At the place where the troop was to separate into two parties, it found horses, arms, and two Spanish Officers, who led it into Portugal, where it proclaimed the Infant Don Miguel, and committed some excesses in three or four villages, after which it again sought refuge in Spain, on the fourth day of this glorious expedition. Coin plainis on the subject were immediately addressed to our Government by that of Portugal." A curious account has just been published. It is of the subscriptions made by the different religious com• munities, by the corporations, ecclesiastical as well as civil, by the different municipalities of the kingdom, and by several private individuals, for the organization, equipment, and support of the Royalist volunteers of Ithe kingdom, from the end of the year 1823 to that of 1826. The sum of the whole, including the expenses of religious ceremonies, the blessing of banners, and other casual charges, amounts to 119,000,000 of reals (31,535,000 francs). At present the taxes impos si on every kind of provisions, crops, nierchandizes, and im portations, for the support of the Royalist volunteers, has arisen to two-thirds of the ordinary contributions; and it is remarked that all the villages which have no Royalist volunteers pay as much of the contributions as those which have.
