On Sunday, in . the Court of the Tit uilleries, there will be a grand review of the Imperial Guard, and of the regiments now at Paris and its environs. It is believed that it was owing to the inter vention.and lively solicitation of Colonel Laharpe, a Swiss by birth, and who was : the tutor of the Etn :peror Alexander, that, in the event of war, the 1 - leivetic Republic will maintain a neutrality, for ‘which this Monarch has loudly expressed himself.
