The mist, and fog, and impending drizzle, so cha
racteristic Of November on the opposite side Of st.
Georges Channel, exhibit decided inclination to
preserve the entente cordiaie between France and
England, so far dispensing to both countries an
equal measure Of favor. Certainly never do we re-
member the British metropolis in the most palmy
days Of November pride donning the peculiar
livery Of the season with more complete univer-
salty Of denseness than may be Witnessed now in
the rival capital The air Ia vast veil Of murky
grey; the trees which usually condsscend to grace the
noble architecture Of the city loom like fghtful mani
acs with their gaunt bare arms quverng through the
gloomy haze; the lofty palatial buildings, ordinarily
SO cleaning bright in q pelucid atmosphere, now
frown and scowl like battlements ominous Of thun-
der, smoke and death; the gay uniforms Of the SOL
dery only to increase the dismal chaos by the
smutty indefinite character Of hues whose glowing
tints were created for the sum- and not for mist and
vaior, and to crown al, the indignt, the denizens
of this oally smiling city of cities, in general so
gay, so talkai-", so imaginative and so mercuria,
Is seen eyerywhere shiverng, sacrsing, splitting,
smoking sneezing ana muttering throats Of charcoal
and aspbyxia. In one respect at least, London has
the adyantage-its inhabitants are more to the man
ner born spite Of fog and frost, the cicles on his
nose, or the vaporoas odor penetrating to his mar
row, John Bull continues to ply his trade; And a. IL
the ungenial atmosphere stimulated him inso uu-
wonted energy, he does so with an apparently light
spirit and merrier soul than in that laughing sun
shine so necessary to his neighbors across the
Msrche.
At six o'clock yesterday morning the thermome
ter Of NJ. Chevallier stood at deg below zero, CEN
tigrade, (3Ol Fahrenheit.) and at noon IL was at
4.l0 above zero. centigrade, (32 2-3 Fahrenheit.)
The gay world, which throughout the bright sea-
son has been dispor.ng itself on the sea shore, on
the banks Of the Rhine, at Hamburg, Baden Baden,
or in places renowned for cleansing constitutions
Of Augean foulness by interminable irrigation,
has, to man, taken refuge in Paris. The yellow
c6iche indicative Of furnished apartments, Is now
rarely to be seen. House agents are Ike Alexan-
der, crying for more worlds TO conquer-for more
apartments wherewith to meet the demands of an
ever increasing profique-come what will, this Is TO
be the season OF seasons. Lord Granville Is here
from Moscow. Count de Kisseliff, the new Russian
Ambassador, arrived on Monday. Both have received
invitations TO repair TO Compiegne, where other
things besides hunting, shooting stag quartenng and
feasting are being thought Of. Then, when the
games a-foot, when the balls Of the billiard table
execute their well calculated angles, when chess
initiates the science Of war, when whist and ecarte
cheat the weary hour, there, in q cabinet at the
western extremity of the chateau, may be seat
ed two individuals-often times they are alone, but
generally there Is third and fourth present. The
table Is covered with charts the shelves which sur
round the cabinet filed with works of statistical
compendia; on the side Of the room which fronts
the fire place Is highly colored map Of Europe,
and near II Is one Of Asia. These individuals ar
the Emperor Of the French and Lord Cow
ley, the English Ambassador. He alone
of all the Ministers Of foreign courts
has been ASKED to stay the whole period Of the
Courts sojourn at Compegne and IL is with him that
earnest conferences are daily held on the present state
to Lord Cowley. Not that there s any intimate la
SON with him, as with Lord Normandy in the days Of
the Presidency which, If report speaks true led 10
