can only be gained by constant striving for their
favor. Were in your place should make personal
friends of every man met, and make them warm
supporters of our dynasty, also"
There is no doubt that the wary old fox spoke the
truth. But il is not the part of young thus 10
20 popularity-huntng. The Due de Nemours by no
means relished the lecture, and brsky replied
" do my duty as we'll as can and il is not my fault

bow and smile TO the crown, shall not They would
shout heartily against for me, and shall not do
violence 10 my nature by speaking pretty sentences
for capricous public" This was spoken with great
yehemence and the king made no answer 10 It. The
conversation has been put into print and privately
circulated, but am unable TO say chO gave II rubli-

will give you idea of the firm character # the u-
ture Regent In abilities he is vastly superior TO his
late brother, and he has the merit, Also OF being
man of few words. | should not wonder if, as Re
gent, be will do great things for France.
HIS brothers, the Prince de Joinve and the Due
d'Aumale have left ST. Cloud for Brest, and off
for Lisbon much to the grief of the pretty damses
of the Academic Royale and the Theatre Francois
The Due d'Aumae will probably take Madrid on hi,
way to Algers, at which last named place he IS to
90 flesh his maiden sn ord' as General There is an
idea here that his call at Madrid will be to how
the land lies for marriage with the Queens sister,
for " the balance Of power" Politicians would yo-
lently resist French Prince being married to Isabel
la of Spain. Her sister, by the way, is much better
looking than herself and already spoken Of eli
gible malch--why, know not, as she will have
Kingdom to bestow on her husband, nor any portion
worth mentioning. Just now the Due d'Aumale IS
one Of the best matches in Europe. He is very hand
some, young highly accomplished, and immensely
rich The greater part of the property of the late
Prince Bourbon de Condo came TO him, on the death
Of that Prince, and this includes the magnificent es-
tates of Chantlly. When the French Chambers gave
a repeal, point blank 10 the demand of donation to
the Due dc Nemours his brother d'Aumae at once
offered to make him the allowance out Of his own
fortune, which the Chambers had refused
The Prince de Jonville has "won golden opni-
ons" by refusing t. be made Rear Admiral out OF his
turn. He prefers being captain in active service to
being I" laid up in ordinary" as Admiral His pre-
sent destination after eavng his brother at Lisbon,
is the Brazils. There he will have a double duty to
execute. The first IS TO solicit for himself the hand
Of the sister Of the Emperor of the Brazils lady
who is represented as better looking than Pedro H.,
g nais joie mas GENTLE" Whenever a ady's air
mind, and accomplishments are particularly dwelt
upon, be sure that her face is ordinary.
The Princes second object is said to be TO inter
fere, far he can, with the mission of Mr. Henry
Ellis, who is going from England TO the Court of Rio
Janeiro to conclude a treaty with the Emperor. The
EngIishman is to try and open the river Amazon eX-
clusivcly the British and the French prince is to
try and defeat this. England has become greatly I'm.
popular with the Brazilians on account of the
slant endeavor to suppress the slave trade and this
is point which in ali probability French diplomacy
will turn against John Bull.
They "trying it on'' regards the British
claim the right of search, and the alleged visit of
the Aigle, by two drunken sailors from III. B. Males
ty's cruiser, the Swan Is the grievance The
truth is the "rght of search" is unpopular, and
the Ashburton treaty, the French do not see why
they should submit TO it. The difference is that The
United States did submit to it, while, 10y as
senting to the treaties of 1881 and 1893 France did
NJ Guizot is well known to be in favor of the right Of
search, because he wants 10 put down slavery.
II England be unpopular with the French, so is
America The new Tariff is so uniavorable to French
brandies, silks, wines, &c. that they nearly
cuded by it, and the compla nj is that NJ de BacouTt
unfit TO represent France at Washington, as he
did not get better terms Is NJ Pageot who is the
successor of Nj. de Bacourt, better able to wheede
Brother Jonathani
In Spain, where he was Oh the Salyandy embassy

Lord Cowley has returned to Paris. II is really GU
rous TO notice what unsuitable persons are rep
resenting England at the most important places. At
Paris there is this Lord Cowley, gentleman in his
10th year, who is hardly able to from govt and
is deaf as post. lie is the Duke of Wellingtons
brother, and therefore has been made an Ambassa-
dor.
Henry Bulwer has also returned but il is said that
he ilpossbly leave, TO so to Persia as Ambassa-
dor.
Soults son, The Marquis de Damatie, is spoken of
as likely to succeed Count Bresson Ambassador
from France to the Court Of Berlin This is said to
be the Kings own doing, to punish the Count for not
having persuaded the King of Prussia TO take Paris
in his route, when returning from London, or going
TO Turtzeland. The diplomatic relations between
France and Prussia are most friendly but Louis PHI
ippe is personally pqued at the slight which he fan
cies was thrown on him by his royal brother in not
visiting him Louis Philippe's weak point is desire
to be considered the personal friend of the other Eu-
ropean monarchs. He would give good round sum
-fopd as he is Of money-to have few crowned
heads visit 10 him in Paris | think he would
think any sacrifice tring, if it procured the reaza-
ton of this desire Nlethinks he would be thought
more highly OF by those whose good will he seeks
conciliae, if he said, Here am, Citizen King,
elected by the nation, and you that | get
very well with ut your aid" Depend on it, if he
thus showed little independence, they would court
him for the hereditary rulers Of Europe are in aw
full dread of any reference to the will Of the people
or their power to carry it into effect.
