The daily union. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1845-1857, 1845-11-25


forgotten! This time il was not the English,
but the French press, through which his lord
ship hoped to be made the subject OF weeks talk
in Paris. But he was mistaken; he is altogether too
quaint in his thoughts and manners, to amusc the
Parsians even for week. Hallery's great opera
Charles vi the great refrain of which is "No; France
shall never be governed by England" is much more
successful than aught that scan emanate from his
lordshp" The letter itself IS full OF professions OF
peace and of praise of the great French sovereign
'who, happily for Europe"-not for France-now
goue,as the French people IL this sentence does not
prove his lordshp wag, the following one certainly
does. Speaking Of the Queen OF England, he remarks
can you that she has known how to attract
the most profound respect, and has merited the
greatest confidence on the part of all mel OF any
consequence here, whose support is worth anything
from The admirable talent sAs has shoen for business"
Speaking of the propensiues of the French people
to pull down the present government IN order to IN
stitute another his ordsbip remarks with less sar-

Of the many reasons why his lordshp is in favor of

must be particularly faterng to the French peo-

the most correct one
In regard to ireland, ms lordship says; our
thunderbolts OF war need not reckon on that part o

anti-English patty there" What consolation

to be eered by oil parties with his unfortunate irish
experiment! B,t 1t Is characteristic OF great men
