The camp at Chalons is at last broken up. The
speech which the Emperor made at its dissolution,
was like everything else from the same source preg
nant with meaning. One of his Maiesty's greatest
difficulties has been during time OF peace to make
the Guard chosen body, without at the same time
exciting jealousy in the line. The heart burnings
have for long time been many ana grievous, ana
springing from the army where the very essence OF
Napoleon's power is concentrated. 1t has more than
once threatened dangerous consequences. To re.
medy this has been one great object OF the Camp OF
Chalons. Napoleon, by his personal interference,
has been constantly doing all that lay in his power
to keep matters smooth, and has, undoubtedly
to certain extent succeeded, but still not suff-
ing admontion contained in his speech.
namely" That the Imperial Guard should
set good example in peace as well
in and be for the line, out OF which it comes,
Just object Of emulation" Really when one thinks
of the numerous shades Of feeling which Napoleon,
absorbing to himself as he has, despotic power has
to reduce TO homogeneity, it is wonderful how nc
gets through his work at ALL nothing but physique
lluenees could enable him to do SO. Everything lit
tie or big, from market stall to the manufacture OF
n Danubian prince, has to be submitted to him; and
no man can say considering all things. that every
thing is not well done. Among the tries he has in
hand is the erection of better style Of house in the
avenue de rImperatrice, in order to induce the
French gentlemen to reside more on the outskirts of
Paris. But French architectural skill Is accustomed
chiefly to deal with masonic masses. 1t must be

particular.
The Emperor is to open the colossal market place
by the Church of st. Eustache early next month,
known by the name of Les Halles 1t is here that
every product for Paris consumption must first be
brought and submitted to public Inspection and the

II will be recollected that the ladies of the Halle

market place, which, with that magic art which in
France for such purposes knows no difficulties was

10000 guests Two things rather marred its sue

II may be asserted, without 6attery, that never,
