necessary efficiency

An incident took place in Paris, on Easter Mon
day., which has in some quarters given rise To-
much apprehension, and which in others l.
attempted 10 be slurred over as quite unimportani.

coniented state of the popular mind, and grow
ing hostility to the government. and especially to-
Louis Napoleon, who little while ago the
darling Of The people. On the evening Of yesterday

blue surface was reflected the brilliant light of the
sasm, and, throughout the piece, the aid of beau
