to expectation.
The last official reception at the Elysee for the
present season took place on Saturday evening; nearly
the whole of the Members of the Senate, Legislative
Body, and Council of State, were present. The Bul-
letin de Paris, in noticing this soiree, says :
" It was not less brilliant nor less animated, but more
cordial than usual. The 'tact with which the Prince
organises these soiries, and the grace and affability which
be displays towards all his guests, are . well known.
Our representatives will return to their constituents un-
der this impression. We can assert, without fear of con-
tradic:ion, that not the slightest coldness subsists be
tween the members of the different powers, and the
next session can open under the auspices of the most
perfect union."
The Impartial of Nancy states that strict orders
have been given that all works executed for the Go-
vernment shall be suspended on the Sunday.
