The difficulty which mentioned last week in relation
the number and quality of the Americans who to
have tho honor OF being to 'her Maestes he
Emperor and Empress this winter, has been removed
but removed aftcr the accomplishment of what he wns
desirous Of doing-on the part of NJ ThouvsneI he
era reduction Of tho number Of presentees The fact of
the that the facility with which Americans hero
have able obtain the e 10 court has been
abused there have several occasions been more
Americans presented single evening than the citi
zens Of all other nations combined So much for tho
quantity. Az for the quality with democratic
ideas II may seem perfectly proper that no distinction
should bs made between American citizens; but some
facts have been brought to the attention OF the Master
Of Ceremonies and reached the Emperor himself. which
do strike him and the court exactly tho thing"
For example, two years ago American came to Paris
with horses to soll and which he finally did soil to
the Emperor himself having had interview with him
for that purpose; and in the capacity-quditte-of
horse dealer So far good But the Emperor had learn
cd that the next evening the individual present

the arstocracy Of Europe Two three other Of
a similar nature reported and the result has been
the letter which NJ Thouvcne sent to Mr.. Dayton, re-
quring the equality, title and social position Of the
persons whose names he transmits for presentation
learn that the Minister and the Duke do Cambaceres
Grand Master OF Ceremonies have had personal inter-
view upon the subject, and that understanding has
been arrived at that tic list shall be hereafter materially
curtacd and that these who compose it shall be at
least persons of social position. The latter
QUESTION will make the duties Of the American
Minister in this matter not particularly agree
able will his fulment of them have tendency
make him popular among those Of his countrymen who
have no "ttes" and no "socia position" to speak Of
would advise every American coming abroad hereafter
TO be dubbed or to dub himself ''Colone at least
with that title and fair share Of mpudence he will
have no difficulty in going TO court Tho second ball OF
the takes place Wednesday evening when the
majority OF those who were not permitted to 60 to the
first will doubtless have opportunity Of exhibit.
ing themselves in the imperial presence.
so many have been the applications Of military to
tho Unitod States Minister to obtain service in tho
deral army that Mr. Dayton has found il necessary
prepare circular which he forwards TO all applicants
stating that he has no authority whatever to make
contract that he neither insure the expenses Of
passage commissions upon arrival and that he
in position to offer any encouragement such ap
great military ability and if government need the
services OF such men 1t is pity that there is way by
which they may be made available.
All Paris in state Of excitement today

and . number Of young men, variously stated
from three to fifteen, drowned Everybody is talk

any detailed account Of the accident What would your
readers think such an unfortunate accident should

circulation IN Parisdoss this morning?-"We have not
heard the details. We will give them tomorrow morn
