| PARIS, April A, 1866.
Inc Holy week has been one of perfect absti
nence IN every way, and complete political fast
as regards the INTERIOR The only thing which il
any way occupies the public attention is the com
/ ing struggle at Strasburg, between Mons. de
Bussiere, the government candidate, and Mons.
laboulaye. 1t is well known that Mons. de Bus
| sIere threw up his seat as he was blamed for not
voting the amendment asking for an extension OF
liberty. He is now going to try it again, and see
if his constituents think him still worthy of repre-
sentipg the Bas Rhn.
Mons. Laboulaye the opposition member, is q
man well known for his celebrated work Paris e,,
4 4Ameraqete, which eXtols the institutions of the
United States. There will be fight between
wealth and intellect for Mons. de Bussiere has a
long purse and no head, and Mons. Laboulaye has
a long head and very little purse if any, nous
| uefTons! Forgive me if / have been somewhat
lengthy on this subject that perhaps appears to
you of little interest, but the consequences of
| which may be fraught with danger for the present
! dynasty. Our attention has again been directed
from interior matters by the rnmor of war amongst
the sons of Sauerkraut, which have caused
.s GREAT FALL AT THE BoURsE.
ALI stock of every kind is going down with a run.
1t would really seem as if rogues were going to
fall out, but whether honest men will get their due
is another question. Hohenzellorn and Hapsburg
it is feared, cannot avoid coming to blows, as the
covetous Count Bismark, King Wihelm's Jack
Nasty, is determined not to let go his hold of the
duchfes of Schieswig Holstein, which Franz Joseph
helped him to conquer. Both Austria and Prussia
pretend to be most unwilling to go to war, but
are, nevertheless, very active in their arsenals
| and Will, in case of need, be ~
READY FOR THE COMBAT.
Vienese papers inform US that Marshal Bene-
deck has been named commander in chief of all
the Austrian forces. We hope, however, twill be
some time before he marches on Berlin
THE VOYAGE OF PRINCE NAPOLEON TO FLORENCE
Has given rise to much surmise. The Tuieries
would have US believe that Fl. l. H. is on a
tour of pleasure, but nobody believes it, as the
constant going and coming back from Italy can
be anything but pleasurable. The Emperor
sat closeted with his cousin for hours on the dav
previous to Prince Napoleon's departure. All
those who come in contact with the Emperor as.
sure us that his sole desire for the present is
peace. Should, however, war be inevitable, we
shall not be found unprepared.
THE CAMP AT GHALoNs
y
after the breaking up Of the same the greater part
of the troops viii be marched to the Rhenish
frontier.
A great many paftisans of the Orleans dynasty
crossed the channel the other day, in order to be
present at the funeral of the ex.Queen of the
French, which took place at Weybridge. Her late
Majesty was laid by the side of Louis Philippe, in
the vault Of the Catholic chapel belonging to Miss
Taylor.
WILL OF MARIE AMELIE.
can affirm with gertrude that the ex- Queen of
the French few days before her death implored
her sons and grandsons never to renounce their
right TO the French throne. 1t has been observed
that since Marie Amelie's death, there has been
much stir among the Orleanist party. However,
they must act with prudence, for there is no doubt
but that the first attempt any of Louis Phillippes
amily to disturb the peace in France would be
attended with very unpleasant consequences to
nose known to entertain any sympathy for their
cause.
me Holy week has given us a little respite from
he feyerish excitement OF Partisan Iife. We had,
20 be sure, several concerts spirtues, !" or sacred
concerts which, however, acted as narcotics after
ne noisy and exciting music we have had to listen
% during Lent. Both our equestrian circles have
'een turned into concert rooms, and the Cirque de
Imperative in the Champs Elyse6 now gives US 4
IS good and as well performed music as that of
ilrqae Napoleon on the boulevard du Temple.
H THE PROMENADE OF LoNGCHAMPs, -"
Where the fashionables annually meet in Holy .
Eeek to see and to be seen, was less brilliant this
ear than last; the weather was not genial enough
2 appear in anything but winter dresses. As soon
the sun shows himself we shall see all Paris and
is wife out in the Champs Elysee, and / daresay
l my next epistle shall be able to give you an
ccount of how our ladies dress for the edifcation
+ their sisters on the other side of the water.
hey will be surprised to see the new fashion no
onnet," as itmay be called, for what the fair sex
ear on the top of their head is only an apology
,r the same. 5Fs33 0 A@&4l'4 34@2& #
ON JUAN OR GIOVANNI AT THE FRENCH OPERA +
HOUSE. -,.,.4l.
Mozart,s famous Don Giovanni, so known to the |.
usical world, was on Monday last brought out at
he opera in the French language. 1t was per-
'rn1ed before an immense and brilliant audience, T
le Emperor and Empress being present. Every
ling went oil on ne pe,t naieur. It's bold step
give the Parisans an opera of Mozart's, for
hey have been much accustomed Of late to the
oisy school Of Verdi and Meyerbeer. Y viii IA II =
