and great events-the event on the present &C.
casion being the Emperor's departure from the
Tuileries at six o'clock to head the army OF
Italy. A Bonaparte was once more turning
his back on Paris to join the imperial eagles on
the plains of Italy. This day will be memora-
BILE in the modern history of Europe, for great
events must follow. The people of Paris seem
ed TO feel the occasion, for they hocked from
all quarters of the city at an early hour, and
took up positions along the Rue dc Ravoll
to the Lyons Railway Every window was
crowded with spectators, whilst the pathways
on either side presented dense mass of human
beings so closely packed us to prevent the pos.

the Emperor took place several carriages passed
down the Rue de RiVoli with the ladies' ana
friends of officers attached to the Emperors
staff and household. They all drove on 10 tue

nearest and dearest to them. Prince jerome
and all the members of the imperial family, the

TuilerieS about four o'clock to bid farewell TO
the Emperor and console the Empress. his

POPULAR FEELING TOWARDS THE EMPEROR

roofs, were black with human beings. The EN-

of the CarrouSel there was roar of voices,
hats were tossed aloft in the air, handkerchiefs
were waved and women cried. The Emperor
looked surprised Mt the unusual warmth of his
reception, and well he might. There was no
display of troops. By the time the eortege had
arrived at .he Hotel de Ville this continued and
unexpected ovation had produced the effect

offensive acts of his party, gives the following
analysis of the various elements composing it
out there:
"This year. 1859, it is notorious that the
