FRENCH ORAToRs.-The France tells
some anecdotes of the principal orators in
the French Chamber, which. if not true,
are at least amusing. One day it says,
while NJ. Jules Favre was speaking. NJ.
Rouher fell asleep When the eloquent
radical leader ended his speech, NJ. Vuitry
walked his colleague, telling him be must
reply. What did he talk about?" re-
Joined NJ. Rouher. Nj. Vuitry having de-
scribed, in a few words, the subject of
debate, NJ. Rouher assembled the tribune,
and in speech of three-quarters of an hour,
triumphantly demolished the arguments Of
his opponent. When he returned to his
seat he laughingly reproached NJ. Vuitry
for having walked him from the pleasantest
nap he had enjoyed for long time. The
speeches of NJ. Berger are also conceived
on the spur of the moment, and he at
taches SO little value to them after they
have been delivered that he never corrects
the reports, as most Of the members do.
Once, on being urgently requested by TIE
head of the reporters to revise an impor-
tant speech which he had delivered that
evening, he replied Il read my own
speeches You might as well offer me
soup after coffee" NJ Theirs on the
other hand corrects the reports of his
speeches with great care. After an i'm
portant debate he usually passes the night
in the Office of the Moniteur, going over
the proofs word for word, and keeping
himself awake by drinking chocolate. M.
Olivier follows his example. NJ. Jules
Favre never corrects the reports of his
speeches, and NJ. Rouher has this done
by his secretary.
