WANTED.

N8pOIeOn the 1nlrO IS IN want OF an
aristocracy. He suggests after his own
fashion, and divers Of his counsellors pro-
pose to him, modes Of supplying the want.
He and his Empress are fond of splendour.
but, like the sun. he beholds no briliiancy
about him save that which is borrowed
from himself. His functionaries and their
wives are resplendent in gala dresses
His prefect of the Seine gives splendid
fetes to Sovereigns and Plenipotentiaries.
But sources of dignity and splendor more
independent and varied. are still found to
be wanting. In this respect Paris does
not at present greatly differ from Constan.
tinople. In the latter capital as in the for
mer, there is no splendour. and no hon
our, except that which emanates from the
reigning Sovereign. All that former
Sovereigns had created or conferred
would seem to have passed away with their
reigns.
The proposition most in favour with the
advisers at the Tuileries is for creation
of dukes and marquises ; but the Emperor
knows that to confer titles is one thing, and
to make them respected, is another
There are two or three military celebri-
ties who would wear titles with effect, and
every one would respect a Pelissier. a
Canrobert, Bosquet. But all existing
non-military eminences sprung from past
regimes and reigns. are hostile to Napo-
leon. and his system does not render it
possible that any counteracting power of
equal weight should be called into exis-
tence. It would of course be easy to
throng his Court with high-sounding titles
but it is not these, but the more solid at
tributes of patriciate, of which the abb
scnce is at present felt so bitterly. Louis
Napoleon necessarily founds the hopes of
his dynasty upon his son--an infant and
he well knows that in questions of sue
cession. or in the crisis Of minority, that
which has always proved most powerful
to uphold dynasty has been respected
second chamber. Had body existed in
1914 more worthy and less selfish than
the Senate. it is probable that the dynasty
would not then have been changed. The
first Napoleon was as much deserted by
his Senate in the project Of leaving the
Crown to his son. as he was abandoned in
the field by the fortune of war; and now
the same state of things recurs, in the per-
son of a prince who has succeeded in es-
tablishing his personal authority in ma
ture age. and has but an infant to succeed
him. In case of accident or death, where
lies that power in the State likely or able
to uphold dynasty. deprived of the
strong arm Of its second founder? In the
Senate ! It is precisely the same body
of pensioners as that which betrayed the
6rst Napoleon. except that it wants the
e,ninence and responsibility of its prede-
cessor. In the Legislative body or Low
er Chamber? OF that we need not speak.
Even if it were freely elected and endow-
ed otherwise with rights, the mere fact of
the common privilege Of publicity being
denied to its members would brand it as
utterly useless and uninduential in con-
temptation Of any great crisis.
