THE EMPEROR
will quit Vichy on the morning
of the sth, and arrive the same day at St. Cloud,
whence he will proceed on the Bth or 9th to the races of
Du Pin in Normandy. The day after the races the Empe-
ror will attentively examine the horses in the Imperial
stud at that place. The amusements are to conclude with a
steeplechase, which will give the Emperor an opportunity
of appreciating the improvement which has taken place in
half-bred horses under the direction of Gen. Fleury. Ano-
ther object of the Emperor's visit is to give the Norman
breeders a proof of the interest he takes in the improve-
ment of French horses. The breeding establishment at Du
Pin was fcunded by Louis XIV.
DRIVING THE FIRST PILE FOR THE TEMPORARY
BRIDGE AT BLACKFRIARS.—Yesterday afternoon a
large number of persons assembled on Blackfriars-bridge
to witness the driving of the first pile for the construction
of the temporary wooden bridge across the Thames, for the
conveyance of foot nassengers during the budding of the
new bridge. Soon after one o'clock, the pile-driving ap-
paratus being in readiness, the pile was placed in a perpen-
dicular position, and the first stroke of the monkey sent the
pile fully two feet into the bed of the river. The site chosen
e
the
works the erection of the bridge is from the steps between
works of the railway bridge and Blackfriars-bridge, on
the
south side, to the steamboat pier on the Middlesex side of

the river.
