PARIS, MONDAY.
Vely Pacha, the uew Turkish Ambassador to the
Court of the Tuileries, has arrived in Paris.
The Moniteur of to-day publishes an account of
the indirect revenue for the first three months of
the present year, which shows a decrease of
5,931,000 f., as compared with the same period in
1860.

A Paris letter in the Independance gives the fol-
lowing account of a dinner at the Tuileries :
" The Emperor, with the Empress leaning on his
arm, and the latter holding the Prince Imperial
by the hand, entered the saloon in which the
guests were waiting. According to usage, each
NV as named in succession by the Grand Chamber-
lain to their Majesties, and the Emperor shook
each by hand, the Empress saluting. The Prince
Imperial, who is a charming child with magni-
4eent eyes and an air of great intelligence, was
eonducted by the Empress to the place her Ma-
Jesty occupied at the dinner table, on the Em-
Penes left, but the Prince did not dine, not
,being yet allowed to appear at table, at least when
there is a reception. The Emperor was in military
costume ; the Empress wore a splendid diadem in
diamonds and a very elegant summer dress. Her
Majesty was rikther pale— an indication of the morrow'

I she has lately endured, but the Emperor seemed to
enjoy perfect health. When the dinner was over their
Majesties and the guests retired to the apartments
situated between the Pavillon de Philibert Delo9ne
and the Empress's old apaftment. The Emperorbad
those rooms fitted up on a space which had been,
formerly unoccupied, and the Empress has
had them decorated with great taste. In
oue chamber the pannels above the doors, and others
at the same height, are ornamented with paintings
of groups of birds; in another, flowers replace birds;
and in a third are portraits, painted on wood, of her
Majesty's principal female friends. The portrait
most strikingly resembling is that of the Countess
de Morny. It is placed above the door, and opposite
one of the Countess Walowski. On the other side, on
the same level, which is rather high, are portraits of
the Duchess de Malakoff, Mme. de Labedoyere, etc.
The reception terminated at half-past eleven. In the
course of the evening an incident occurred which,
though insgnificant in itself, proves that the Em-
peror sees all that takes place around him. At the
moment at which, after dinner, his Majesty was
making the round of the saloon, saying a word to
each of his guests. he noticed that a deputy of the
Legislative Body, M. Crosnier, remained in the se-
cond rank without attempting to approach him.
His Majesty stopped, and, calling one of his atten-
dants, said, ' Go and see if Crosnier wants anything
—he is so pale that he seems to me to be ill !' M.
Crosnier, in fact, was indisposed, but only slightly,
from the heat o 2 the room. This incident caused
some emotion in the assembly, because it shewed
the Emperor's attention."
