has an air of perfect security and satisfaction
about it for the King of the London Conference
to leave the Holy Alliance to do and say and
think as it will whilst Talleyrand is away, yet
the truth is. that the Prince has come to advise
Louis Phiip-to inform him of his real position
and to counsel the King OF the French and his
infatuated ministers to make not a few changes
both in their foreign and domestic system! If
anv Court Circulars or Court Blockheads should

some hours engaged in private, and no doubt
important, discussion. Talleyrand and Louis
Philip agree most admrablyS They both love
money; both love repose. dignity, and luxury;
both are selfish and esotistical; and both are low

Paris before Dupin was sent for. A private let
