Yesterday the Emperor and Empress OF the
French drove In an open carriage from Bonloyae to
Soulecques, to sssist az some grand military ma

western pier Of the town, and walked to the end of
it, his Majesty taking the opportunity Of examining

weather. Their footsteps were everywhere follow.

soners-the feminine portion Of them especially.
1t would seem that the sex In Russia are much the
same every where else, and in point OF dress
not one whit less coquettish in their taste than
French women. Flounced dresses, silk nantes,
handkeTchiefs uniquely arranged at the back of
their heads small, well fitting shoes, showing pretty
feet and tapering ankles, covered with h,se white
as their own SHOWS, and drawn on with q care
which leaves not Q plat or wrinkle to offend the
eye, are some Of the general and predominant cha
racteristics. Tho majority have good teeth, with
Iightsh hair, very fine and silky. There is only one
positive exception to this and she has the raven locks
and dark eyes Of her Arab origin. She is Jewess.
The children are kept very clean and well dressed.
The Russian soldiers are at liberty to move about
the island Of AK, where they are located under con-
dition Of answering to their names two or three
times in the course Of the day. and they found to

rather servile, attitude which they at their
approach. The polite salutation which they meet
with from the French, In return to their own marks

them. The Russian officers have dined with the
garrison. They came en- gyunde tenue, In full uni.
