The illness which q mentioned in my last letter.
happened to the Empress, has been rendered public
by an article of the Monitenr, published On Satur
day last. No tell why this natural event had
been so long kept secret at the ruleres whilst it
was known by everybody out doors. Then, instead
of taking place on the Goth ult, as it is avowed by
the Moaiteur, it is known certain fact that the
accident was met by the Empress on the 25th-the
very day Of the grand ball given at the Tuileres It
appears that Louis Napoleon had been quite disap-
pointed and sorrowful about the affair." for it was
feared that the Empress would be so very sick that
she would lose every hope Of giving heir to the
pire Of France.
The political news is not OF much interest, owing
to the prescription which is put into practice by the
government against all those who are daring enough
to mingls with public affairs. Several arrests we're
made on Friday and Saturday last, Of persons who
had been detected in the act Of introducing into
Paris those pamphlets which are published in Bel
GUM and which contain the most insulting language
against the Emperor of France.
The ceremony of the anniversary Of Napoleon's

been decided that the remains of the Emperor
should be transferred to the Church of st. Denis,
where q special monument will be erected to
the Napoleon family. Much opposition has been
shown to Louis Napoleon by several of his ministers;
but as he only does what he likes, he has already
given orders to have his wishes accomplished and
doubt his project will be carried out it has been
decided in bis mind.

In Switzerland the trial of all the rioters of Fri

received from Vienna. Though no great difficulties
are to be expected from the fact it s supposed that

understanding growing between the two cabinets OF
Vienna and London.

appearance. The thermometer is already seventeen
and twenty degrees; and yesterday and to day from
twelve to four o'clock, the temperature has been as

temples dedicated TO the Almighty as La Madeline,
