THE COUNTESS WALE TVSKA.

The feelings of regret which were created in the fashion-
able society of London by the departure of the Count Walew-
ska and the Countess Walewska from England, have just
been expressed to the countess in a manner as flattering as it
is almost unexampled.
A great number of het English friends, and particularly
ladies, among whom are to be found the names of the most
illuitrious of the British aristocracy have united in order to
offer to the late ambassadress of Ffenere a memorial of the
durable souvenir which her proverbial grace and. affability
have left in London.
Oa Tuesday last the Countess of Shelburne presented to
the Countess Walewska at Paris, in name of the donors, a
magnificent emerald bracelet, sent from London, and bearing
the following words as an inscription:—" Temoignage de
souvenir et de regret." To this bracelet was added an elegant
little book, containing the signatures of the givers, to the
number of nearly a hundred persons, with these lines :
" Presented to the Countess Walewska by her English friends,
as an expression of their sincere regard for her, and of the
deep regret they feel at her departure from this country."
