One would think that the sole study of Louis Ma
poleon himself by startling the world out Of its
proprety by sudden and unlocked for surprises His
whole has been characterized by these conps dc
main, the French call them, but which sober Eng
land regarded more theoretical tricks than other
wise. Without aiming at dramatic effect, tho French
Emperor constantly produces from the simple fact that
he conceas his thoughts from every one and when he
decides, he acts with the utmost prompude and gene,
rally, in the very opposite direction TO that expected
told you in my last letter that great preparations for
were going in both England and France such as
rarely have been before. Every thinking man in
both countries felt anxious for the future Every one 10
England had been led to fear French invasion as pro-
bable event at some early period and large volunteer
force rapidly enrolling for duty in every part of the
United Kingdom. Imagine, then, the astonshment OF
the town this morning to hear that the British ambassa

attitude from warke to friendly aud pacific one on
the part of France will put end to that increasing alarm
and uncertainty which is doing serious damage the com
mercia classes Of both countries / cannot think that
Napoleon has contemplated with England, which
would be his ruin. But il it be SO, he mus,
have discovered that public opinion in France
which is, in word, the opinion of the trading
classes, is resoutey opposed 70 such act of in
sanity, and that the time has come to make known to
England and the world that her phrase eue-thai

have doubt this gratifying is well founded and
tie effect will be electrical the prosperity OF both
countries England will gladly welcome her proposition
of disarmament but her suspicious at first will be
lest this may only be crafty scheme Of Napoleon to
check those preparations FOR defence which are
so enthusiastically going all over England. BY de
