checked the animation of Paris. The passion for
political excitement the expectation of some un-
foreseen event taking place in the departments, and
changing the state of our affairs, has some in
fuence on the dissipation which is daily observed
in our public places. The theatres, with the ex-
ception of the rainy evenings, which have been
very numerous during the past week, have been
empty, and, in spite of the efforts made by the
managers, did not pay expenses. The gardens,
where Terpsichore has established her funny and
fancy balls, have been deserted and all attention is
now directed to Lyons, Strasbours, and other
cities where Louis Napoleon is now remaining or
has been.
