Lusisr.-Ly VERSION OF VIP, QuEn's
VISIT TO PARIS.

---

We borrow the following statement from the Invalide
Russe :
The visit of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert to
Louis Napoieoz has proved a failure. The fetes given to
the British Queen were very poor and mean affairs,
strikingly manifesting the exhaustion to which the
French nation has been reduced by the impious war
in
which it is engaged against the children of the Orthodox
Church, and its father, our august Sovereign,
The fete at the Hotel do Ville, given by the city of
Paris at the dictation of the Emperor, surpassed in dul-
ness and heaviness anything of the kind hitherto at-
tempted. The Rue de Rivoli, and a portion of the
quays, were decorated with some old flags, which were
mostly wornemt theatrical pr aperties. The Place of the
Hotel de Vile was stuck about with a few smoky lamps
enclosed in coloured paper. The vestibule was hung
with bunches of faded flowers, and tapestry of the same
deserption, behind which, some bands were stationed,
which played " God Save the Queen,'' and "Rule Bri•
tannia," out of tune, whilst the populace outside sang
" Marlbruk."
A few persons collected in lines between the Tuileries
and Hotel de Ville to see their Majesties. They cried,
" A bas les Anglais .1" and " Vive Henri Cinq !" though
some shouts of " Vine la Republique " were also mingled
with their imprecations.
The Royal personages were hissed all the way to Yin"
cennes, and at one of their visits to the Exhibition -an
oyster-shell was thrown at the Royal party.
The review in the Champ de Mars was a miserable
demonstration. Tne French army, decimated by its
defeats in the Crimea, could furnish but a mere handful
of men for the occasion.
At the Tomb of old Napoleon, the Queen evinced up'
easiness, and the Emperor frowned.
Queen Victoria remarked, in the hearirg of her Ally'
that the display at Versailles was nothing, compared to
that exhibited every night at the tea-gardens at London,
called Crernerne.
The fireworks prepared to signalise the departure of
her Britannic Majesty and the Prince Consort from
Boulogne refused to go off, with the exception of a feW
sidu.bs.
It is said that the Queen and the Empress more than
once exchanged angry words on some question of pros.
dence. The &wilier looked thin, haggard, and sulky ;
the latter more than usually plain, and intensely dis.
gus'ed.
The Queen has sent a few sous for distribution am°l3s
the poor of Paris. Tnis parsimony is not to be viOn°
dered at. co isidering the state of national bankruptcyon
which England is bordering, by reason of the war...-.

ALBONI AND MADAME GIRARDIN.—As we all kri°,_/%
Alboni is not only celebrated for her beautiful voice, Duis
also fir her bodily size. The late Madame Girardin:
reported to have uttered the following bon mot respeel
the great vocalist. " What is Alboni, then ?" 36'4
some one, evidently no habitue of the op,ra. " Wine.

°
phant, who has swallowed a nightingale."
