The Grand drama, 1.-The Beauties Of the Night
By the same author is announced for representation
Me same evening, at the Surrey theatre. messrs.
Davenport, H. Wallack, and Stirling are drawing
crowded houses at Old Drury.
The grand ceremony has taken place, and the
Princess Teba has verify and indeed become the
Empress Of France. The step thus taken by Napo-
leon, Notwithstanding his formal defence Of his con-
duct, appears to please few, except the downright
Bonapartists and our worthy ambassador, Lord Cow
ley, who quite in ecstaces and hand and glove
with the Emperor and his family party. Why his
Excellency should manifest such delight we cannot
quite understand; and probably he may get rap
the knuckes from the Foreign Office, for his pains be-
there very obvions reason why England
should be particularly forward while the represen
tatiyes Of all the other powers, except Spain hang
prudently back, and refrain from expressing any

fife Of course IT was as fine a. velvet and gold, car

onne coudsmake it. Gilt carriages and noble horses,
finely dressed servants and grooms gay caparisoned
officers on prancng steeds, sluadrons Of guides regi
nents of National Guards and troops Of the line all
formed part in the procession. The cannon doomed,
the people cheered ladies waved their handkerchefs
like mad, and all Paris seemed fairly agog on this
great festival day; and then again at night such re-
joicngs Nominations, and fireworks The badauds
will have enough to talk of for the next month to
come. But to the morale of the show What effect
has it had upon the people, and what do the people
Of France really think Of Napoleon the Little! He
has not their confidence; they silent smiling sar
casticay at his stage trckery careless for the pre-
sent, but abiding their time and watching the pro
gress OF events. He is elevated at present to the
very summit of his most ambitious wishes-is an
emperor married to the wife Of his own choice, and
carrying everything with high hand, Just as he
pleases But let him take heed. His ministers and
he are already at issue, the monetary affairs Of the
country far from prosperous, and II yet remains
to be seen whether he who could walk through
blood to throne will be allowed to keep it in peace.
Machiave made small men, it may turn out that
Napoleon is one OF these.
This nine-days' wonder has at length passed away,
and the good city Of Paris after having been agated
and by the expectation and enoymentofa great
national show, has resumed its ordinary tranquility
The imperial stage-manager did all that lay in his
power TO make his marriage fete magnificent and i'm
posing All that jewellers and coachmakers and up
hosterers could do TO give spendor to the scene was
done. Auber hourished his baton and the first
artisfes In Europe tuned their sweet voices TO cele

pomp, iluninatonsr state dinners, and all the ct
ceteras oil courty cap-trap, brought into requ

the principal IN the show had to find fault
with the energy and apparent enthusiasm Of his
subordnates. One thing, however, was unquestion-
ably wanting-the real enthusiasm of the people,
whom curiosity led 10 gaze upon the spectacle They
looked and no doubt they we're pleased for what
Partisan would not be pleased with shows and fetes?
But, alas, there we're no indications Of peoples
love-no demonstrations Of heart felt joy at impor

AaA and indpid as regards real feeling And well
ksown that the new monarch has pleased no party
