The Roman Bonaparte.

The Journal du LOlei gives the following particu-
lars with respect to the Prince de Canine: "The
prince arrived in our city midnight the l7th,
by railway, from Bourges Two gendarmes were
with him. At Marseilles the project informed him
that the instructions Of the government interdicted
him from going to Paris. AT Bourges the prince
found the same instructions. Two gendarmes then
received the order 10 accompany him TO Orleans.
There he publicly declared that he wished TO 90 to
Paris adding that he had diplomatic mission for
Paris and London, and besides, he possessed pro-
pery in France, and had interests in Paris To attend
to. The instructions sent TO Orleans were, that, If
the Prince de Canine should wish to proceed to
England, he was TO be conducted by Charlres and
Evreux to Havre, but that he was not to take the
railway for Paris. The prince preferred to remain
at Orleans. At Orleans his liberty is left TO him.
On Wednesday, after his breakfast, he went out TO
make some purchases. Seeing that police agent
IN plain clothes followed him at a distance, the
prince called him, and said, Come, we will walk to-
gether; that will be better, and you will do me the
favor TO show me the town. The agent complied
and M. de Canine, thus accompanied, visited the
Rue Jeanne dare, the museum, the cathedral, and
the palais de Justice tie afterward returned TO the
hotel, and dined at the table dhote. lie couversed
with several persons on the affairs Of Rome The
prince is Of an embOnpOini approaching obesity"
The prince left Havre on the 2lst for Southamp-
ton. The gendarus in charge Of him did not quit
him I'LL the steamer was under way. The prince
expressed surprise and deep displeasure at the
manner in which he had been treated.
The prince has written a long letter to VI. Dupin,
the president Of the Legislative Assembly, com
planning Of the treatment he has received in France
He says that he left Rome not only free, and with
regular passport, but a mission entrusted to him
by the Roman republic to the government Of
France, England, aud the United States, and that
he is now forced TO leave France against his will
lie declares that he has nothing to ask for himself
but that he appeals to the generosity Of France in
favor Of the heroic Roman, and he finishes by
saying:

to leave this place, IN spite Of myself for Havre
