little thought that same town would quarter of a
century later, try TO turn the tables on him; how
ever such is the case It is neither Chambord nor
a Count de Paris who is oppos ng his powers it IS
portion of the electors the capital of Asata who
are preparing spokes for the wheels of the present
Government.
The ministerial candidate M de Bussiere, who
has for some years past had it all his own way VIII
This time meet with an opponent IA the. person OF
ri, Labouaye a man of very liberal eTs and
welknown as the author of Paris in Amerique,'
work which gives us a vivid and faithrul picture OF
the manners and customs Of free America.
We shall IN few months see whether the liberal
party IN Strasburg Will be powerful enough to Oust
ri dc Bussere, who has great local influence ana
Is. moreover backed by the Governor. Should NJ
Jabouaye be returned it will be sad check for the
Emperor, who now begins to find that his rule meets
eveiy dav with more and more opposition in the
rlrcIpal towns of the departments.
wuh the exception of the coming struggle at
strasburg which will take place on the 25th Instant
there is little OF interest going on at the present mo-
n,ent in the interior politics of France. All our
,3eputes are stiI at home tor the holidays, and will
not resume their duties for few days.
AS regards foreign politics, that is quite another
question Pubic attention is now much taken up
with the squabble going on between the two great
German powers, Austria and Prussia. Should they
come to blows which is sadly feared, there will be
general European flare-up, Italy will as matter
OF certainty not let so favorable opportunity go
nv without irving to wrest Venena from the power
OF Austria There has been great fall in all funds
at the Exchange for the last few days, in conse-
auence of the rumors of war now circulating.
TUE FINANCIAL PANIC
has however, 1t Is hoped come to a stop for a few
days. as the latest adyices from Berlin and Vienna
have been of less alarming character The sau0e
1ui peot was, however general, and it is rumOred
that immense sums of money have been lost within
fhe fortnight We trust that all will yet be well,
and the attitude OF the secondary German States,
and the neutrality of the Emperor will prevent Herr
Won Bismark fiom carrying out his foolhardy
Intentions.
A report is current that the ambitious Prussian
Minister sees no way of bringing things to an ami
cable arrangement without calling together the
GREAT GERMAN PARLIAMENT,
which should, once for all, settle the Schleswig-
Hosiein ques ion, which has so lcng been bOuo Of
contention between Hapsbulg and HohenzOllern.
Our alarm, IS have been very much puzzled by the
MISSIONS OF PRINCE NAPOLEON,
who has been travelling backwards and forwards
between Florence and Paris for the last month.
They affirm that the pretended artistic tour OF H.
I, H. IS all a sham, and that there is more than
meets the eye. They argue very wisely that if
Prince Napoeon's time were so taken up by art
matters, he would not have just sold his Pompelan
house in the Avenue de Montague which has cost
MIN such time and expense to build and decorate.
] will row turn from the surmises OF the day and
speak to you OF the obseques of the xQueen of the
French, who was few days ago laid by the side of
her husband,
THE FUNERAL OF QUEEN MARIE AMELtE
took place ON the Sd of April. The day before nu.
merous partisans of the house OF Orleans arrived at
Claremont, to be present at the funeral of the eX-
Queen. Messrs. GUizot and liners were amongst
the number. The weather was most unfavorable, and
one would have thought even the elements were in
mourning.
THE VAULT OF THE ORLEANS FAMILY

lady 1t is in the form OF cross The coffin of
Louis Philippe occupies the middle. 1t was found
necessary to widen the same in order to place in 1t

often attended mass, aud where he had hoped to be
laid in the grave side by side with the partner of his
Joys and cares LhOmnae PROPOSE ct Dieu dispose.
H. Il. III. the Prince of Wales and the Duke of
Cambridge, descended into the vault. The rest of
their suite were obliged to remain without on ac-
count of the narrowness of the same. After the
funeral there was a reception at Claremont. In
Paris all the families of the Oreanist party have
gone into mourning. The Legitimists, by order OF
fhe Comte de Chambord, commonly called Henry
", have done the same thing.
Nothing is as vet known of the contents ofthe will
of Marie Amelia We are however, informed that her
Majesty particularly recommended to her children
and grandchildren never to give up their claims TO
the throne of France.
THE GROWN PRINCE OF DENMARK IN PARIS

Stephens leads very quiet life, and has taken ur
his abode in the Rue Carmartin. 1t is said that he
intends to proceed to the United States. Some per

star Liszt wish to inform you that the Credo ofthC
mass he has sung at St. Eustache was given at thu
popular concert some days back, and was received
with a storm of Kisses from an overwhelming
audience. The musical Abbe is iound wanting as ,
musical composer, and It is thought he had better
stick to his piano. There is report that he will
shortly make tour in the Unit, States. We shal
see if he will be liOnized much on the other sid
Of the Atlantic as this.
In the literary way nothing OF much interest sine
