duchess.

In consequence of the immense crowd which col 4
lected to see their royal highnesses on their return

found necessary to send round the prince's horses
to the private entrance of, the hotel in Albemarle-
street, whence their royal highnesses returned to
Marlborough House.

dined at Buckingham Palace, by invitation of her

with M. Fould and M. Drouyn de Lhuys. Thelf
imperial highnesses afterwards paid a visit to Pripet/
Napoleon and the Princess Clotilde, and the Prin'
cess Mathilde, from whom they took leave. On the°
return to the Tuileries the Emperor and Archduke
were in close conference till the hour of dinner, and
during the same period the Archduchess enjoyed:
the society of the Empress. Much regret was el
pressed at the approaching separation, perhaps f°r
many years, and the actual leave taking was of 6
very touching nature. The Empress was viol);
moved, and warmly embraced the Archduke,
the separation of the Empress and Archduchess Wl'
like that of two sisters.
