In the evening, there was an assembly at Cooit, a general illumination, and a concert at the 'l'uil• knes ; and at nine o'clock a beautiful display of fite•woo ks upon the Pont Neuf.

Not being able to enter into all the details of this memorable Fos. we shall content ourselves with marking the principal circumstances. The most remarkahle perhaps is the sudden change of the weather. The evening before. there had been a heavy fall of rain; and in the mornibg of that very day, the sky, covet , id with thick - clouUs i confirmed the menaces of the barometer, whit', indicated wet weather. All these disagreeables vanished, nor was the Facc Gf :he hero troubled by any awkward circumstance. Never, perhaps, was the public joy manifered in France in a manner more general or more ingenioti.. At every step. emblems and inssriptio s expressed in a manner the moat happy, the sentiments of love and admiration with which all Fiavee is penetrated for the great man who honours and g. Terns it. Only to cite one example, a met chant of the street of St, Honore had painted the Emperor shouting upon a globe; he touched the earth with the point of his sword ; Irmo whence an olive tr. e was springing up, whose branches shaded the blade. This allegory, as simple as ingenious, was expressed id the follow ing word's .6 Ar-birerfirerit- du Mande.° The games which were executed. on the water, between the bridge of the Toilleries. and that of Concorde, offered a spectacle truly encitanting.- The little squadrons of vessels destined fair the fight, advanced to the sound of music end trumpets; 'in numerable speetators, di -tamed on the quays and S rating baths , and on the vessel, belonging to the swimming school. mingled their loud acclamations witli those of the conquerors. After the fight, it was esp'i'ed that Furioso would exhibit himself walking on a mope. the whole space which 'separates the two bridges; hut an obstacle opposed that ex periment upon the possibility of which. the inathc-. maddens, doubtless, Lad not been consulted. The artificial fire-work 'stoutest on the Bridge of Concorde, terminated-this superb Pete in a manner the most brilliant. The crowd then visited the its laminations: thoseof the Tuillerirt. of the Luzern. hourg, of the Palace of Justice, of the Hotel tl the Minister of Police. successively attraetesr tne at,rt.- tioti of the curious ; but it teas to the illunra.stions of the Palais Royal that the general pleterence was given.

So naked aid bald a prosikkien has never been submitted to the pao.ic. It is remark. able only fur its almost e.dire suppression of every i.ited,ent that cuukt Mate intete.t. or gratify a ra tional culiosity. It noticts, in brief and general terms, the cuanges that leave Lifscn „lace in Ilsaot.y, bVersaw, Loattaic, and Prus ia ; but all this had been promulged is the treaties of Tiled. With all this atterition to brevity, however, he does not forget to repeat, that the King of Paussi• owes the shadow of a kingdom, wine.) he is allowed to retain, to Bus AAAAAA s resp,:t lie the Emperor of Kassa. He forgets that trie treacherous cuuncils of Prussia enabled him so crush the German Em pire, and he taunts her as a pauper, indebted fur a settlement to his respect for a Power, which com• meaced the war Asher Ally, and ended it by j rising with hareem> , to despoil her ; a putvcr which ne has hitherto charaderised as barbarous, and totally untit to be admitted within the pale of civilised harope. The only prospedive part of the Speech is tea: in which he says, "he wishes for peace by sea, and declares that ha feels no imitation against us, be cause he cannot be irritated against a nation which is the sport and vitim of the parties which devoar it, and which is misled, as well with respect to it. own au - airs, as to those of its neigh:sours." This passa g e, it is true, is free from the petulant abuse in which he has hitherto indulged, when speaking of England, and is therefore regarded pacific ; but, we think, very little can be colleflad from it. For the Head of a Great Empire to promise that so petty passions shall divert him from the true ieteresta of the coun try, is a pitiful thought ; and whatever moderation may appear in the indecisive terms in which he speaks of the result of the maritime war, is, per. haps, over-balanced by his boasted isfluence over Spain, Holland, Switzerland, Germany, and Rus sia. There is one other passage which may be con sidered as a deve:opement of the projea of Bors A. • it is that is which, speaking of AL sz- ANDIIII, he styles him, "the powerful Emperor of the North." Some may think that this is thrown out as a bait to induce Russia to compliment Bo wie!, the title of Emperor of the %VIVI' ; but it is, perhaps, ..ating him too high, to sappose that every word that falls from his lips is charged with extraordinary meaning. The lEmperor ALEIANDIik is truly descrihed the power ful Emperor of the Nosy. ; and Cu title coming from any other Potentate in EutSpy excite suspicion or alarm.
