II is announced by telegraphic despatch from
Vienna that the long expected reconciliation of the
elder and younger branches of the house of Bourbon
has been celebrated at Frohsdorf by formal ex-
change of visits between the Duke de Nemours and
the Duke de Bordeaux; and we presume that the
Oldest surviving son of Louis Philippe must be held
to have acted on this occasion the representative
of the whole branch of the Royal family to which he
belongs. Whatever may be the merits of this scheme
of FUSION TO which Importance has been at
tached than it really deserves it is gratifying that
Princes nearly united by blood and so closely
identified by their msfounes, should have agreed 10
bury in oblivion differences connected altogether with
the history OF the past, and 10 put an end to that
division of the Royal family of France which con-
tbuted with other causes, the total subversion of
the monarch. They quarreed, unhappiIy for them
selves long they had any thing TO quarrel about,
and nothing but exile and common fate has
brought them together But this event terminates
that scandaous spectacle of rival parties in the same
family bidding against another for the national
favor, and allowing the divisions of their respective
adherents 10 weaken still further the cause of the
Crown. Personally. we have no doubt that the re-
conciation is hailed with great satisfaction by both
branches of the family; and whatever may be the
future destiny of their house, it is seemy that they
should meet it or endure it together.
The Orleans branch raised TO the throne by
one revolution and deposed by another. The interval
was period of unexamplel freedom and prosperity
to France But the reign of Louis Philippe, in spite
of the great services rendered by that sovereign to
his country created no rights and left few traces be-
hind it, he Orleans Princes had nothing TO renounce,
and in losing the throne they restored to their
natural position towards the head of their family
This reconciliation is therefore no more than the re-
cognition of stale of things which already existed,
ard The honorable extinction OF those feelings of re-
sentiment which mutual in ures in former times had
left behind them. 1t changes in reality nothing. and
it can hardly be said to alter the position of any i'm
portan parties IN France.
