The Moniteur of Saturday says The 10th
Hussars of her Britannic Majesty, which is on its
way from India, and will proceed to the seat of
war, is expected at Suez on the 18th of February.
This regiment has a strength of 650 men, and the
same number of horses. It will be maintained at
the charge of the Government of the Viceroy dur-
ing its passage through Egypt."
The reports of a mutiny among the Zouaves in
the Crimea, brought to Paris by the London jour-
nals, have created a very painful sensation. The
story is no doubt greatly exaggerated, but it is not
thought altogether without foundation. The notion
of 400 men having been sent in irons to Toulon
is scouted as absurd. General Canrobert would
certainly not find such a number of fetters in the
whole French camp. But the version generally
credited at the Bourse (where the affair was much
talked of) was that the Zouaves had objected to
obey the orders given them to bring up English
stores from Balaklava ; that a mutiny, or some-
thing very like one, had occurred ; and that one
consequence of it was the occupation by the French
of a considerable portion of the line of the English
trenches, which Lord Raglan's army was not able
to serve effectually. Those who know the Zouaves,
and their wild determined nature, think them
quite capable of revolting against an order to do
any work which might not appear to them within
the legitimate sphere of their duty as soldiers.
The Emperor and Empress yesterday visited the
Exhibition Palace. Their Majesties, who were ac-
companied by the Marquise de Mariamm 444

Colonel Fleury, aide-do-camp of the Emperor, and
Count Charles de Tascher de la Pagierie, Cham-
berlain to the Empress, were received by the
Minister of State, General Morin, Commissioner-
General of the Exhibition, MM. de Rouville Ar-
doin, Ricardo, and Bouissen, Directors of the
building. The Emperor testified his satisfaction
at the state of the different works.
According to a Paris letter in the Independance
of Brussels, a marriage is in contemplation between
the second son of Prince Czartoriski and the eldest
daughter of Queen Maria Christina and the Duke
de Rianzares. The youthful couple, in case of the
union taking place, will reside, it is said, in Paris.
