PAW% Puma, lITINI*II.
The Monsieur metains a decree of the Prises Pre-
sident, dated Ounemonne, Oct. 4, opaajot an imps-
ordinary credit of 600,000 fr. to the ministry of
Public Works he the repair of the damages caused
by the inundation of the Rhine. •
In reading the daily official meant, of the Presi-
dent's one is forcibly reminded of the
saying of *pole= at St. Helena, that the most
ycent Tete in rhetoric was repetition. It is clear
that Noniteur despatches are prepared
in conformity with that doctrine. True, no-
thing is such wearisome reading, but they produce
the desired impression by fairly tiring out the resist-
ance of the most sceptical mind, and compelling it by
continued iteration to receive as a truth that which
it has no stomach to question. The following is from
the batch contained in to-day's Monitessr:
Toulouse, Oct.., a in the afternoon.
Yesterday evening, at eight o'clock, the Prince went to
the capitol, and. having appeared lathe balcony, was re-
ceived by upwards of MAIO spectators with cries of " Vin
l'Empereur !" Viva Napoleon Ill." At the theatre,
which presents a fairy-like cosiperail, the enthusiasm was
don indescribable energy. The !edit* waved their hand-
kerchiefs to the cry of " Vise l'Empenue." On his return,l
the crowd encumbered the streets to see the Prince and
greeted him with the same acclamations. This morning at
seven o'clock his Highness quitted Toulouse.
Ages, half-past in the evening.
The Prince is now catering the town, and is received
with the greatest enthusiasm by the populatioa of the gar-
rison. The acclamations are unanimous, and the cry of
" Yin l'Empereur " universal.
Half-past 6 in the Evening.—ln spite of the rain his
Highness was received by an immense crowd, who cried
" Vire PEmpereur." The clergy, with the Bishop at their
head, received the Prince at the cathedral. His arrival at
the Prefecture was the occasion of a new expkeion of cries
of " Vise l'Emperestr," and of an avalanche of bouquets
and wreaths of flowers.
Oct. 7, Seven in the Morning.—The Prince gave a dinner
of forty covert last evening at the Prefecture. The presen-
tation of the authorities took place afterwards, and the
ladies wars received. Everywhere the presence of his
Highness produced the most lively enthusiasm. The Fete
dee °ravine was magnificent, and at night the town was
brilliantly illuminated.
Bordeaux, Oct. 7, baltpast 4 evening.
Tbe Prime has just arrived at Bordeaux. Every, here
the people on the two banks of the river saluted him with
enthusiastic manifestations and with cries of " Viva
pewter." The entry into Bardeen: exceeded anything that
could have been imagined.
7 in the evening.—Burileaux has supassed all that we
have hitherto seen, and I shall renounce the idea
of describing the pomp and enthusiasm of the reception
given to the Prince. The vessel which bore him landed
him at the Quinoonee ; his Highness then mounted cm
horseback, and went to the Place, where the filing off im-
mediately commenced, amidst repeated cries of " Via.
Plimpereur !" °Viva Napoleon Ill.!" The deputations
of the communes were unanimous in their enthusiasm. The
Prince afterwards traversed the city to go to the cathedral.
Ho arrived at Bordeaux at half-past four, but did not reach
hie pekoe until hall-pest six. The imposing reeeptioa was
favoured by the meet delightful weather.
A despatch from Bordeaux states that the Prince
we. present to-day at the launch of the Napoleon.
It is said that letters of a most compromising cha-
racter have been discovered among the papers found
in the possession of some of the parties arrested in
the Haute Loire. One of these letters written
from Breonde some few days beforet the
discovery of the infernal machine states that in a
very. shat time, "On allait en flair avec la hour-
poste,* and it recommended the person to whom it
was addressed to take courage, and be patient for a
few days.
