that his twenty-four millions are already gone.

ceived from the hands of Louis Napoleon the red
chopeaat Of cardinal. The new pontiex member of
the conclave delivered in the Latin language speech
to the emperor, who replied to him in the French
dialect an answer short and good. All the dlstn-

the model Of the United States will be followed in
