his august guests the peculiarities which mark this
gorgeous style-of St. Louis' famous structure. After
a stay of about half an hour, the party withdrew,
and entering their carriages proceeded to the Cathe-
dral of Notre-Dame.- . ,

flags on the occasion, and passing along the Rue
St. Antoine, arrived at the Place de la Bastille

got to the Madeline, the Place de la Concorde, the
Champs Elysees, and so. on to the Palace of St.

expressly from a distant part of France to take
part in this representation.
It will plecse our readers to learn that the whole
of the Royal party enjoy most perfect health. Her
Majesty and Prince Albert pursue their custom of
early rising and open air exercise in the morning.

of exhibitors' men will not be admitted. The
doors four and five will be closed on Wednesday at
ten o'clock, and on Friday at two. The circula-

will be made to these arrangements. No invita-
tions will be given, and no privileged ticket issued.
Any application addressed for that purpose will
remain unanswered.
