THE STOLEN DOCUMENTS
IRON OUR own CORRESPONDENT
PARIS. Jan. 2S.-The discussion on the commercial
treaties drags its show length along, and We are
likely TO have enough Of it, without much more sub
staptal results than we had in the contested cleo
tions The Government will have it's own way-that
is Lous Napoleon who is to-day, rs fifteen years or
fifteen months ago. all the Government there is III
France. The debate dTags the more from the uhIor-
tunate habit the Chamber has of permitting discus
SONS upon all sorts of subjects to cut into the man
one and by dividing it into portions break up the
interest of it as well its continuity of impression
These interpretations. however, have been OF much
more interest to the general public than the debate
itself, which has, thus far, brought out no good
speakers except Messrs Simon and Theirs. The
questions asked by the Count Keratry-the same
who you may remember originally proposed public
demonstration on the 18th September against the
refusal to convene the Corps Legisatif-has been
throwing more stones into the Government windows,
metaphorically speaking, by his most embarrassing
questions about the national archives. He has
asked NJ Maurice Richard. the new Minister of
Fine Arts whether it is true that certain
letters and documents have been stolen
convey the wise it Call-frOm the Ar
ohiyes and NJ Maurice Richard. after much uneasy
wrgglng his seat has declared that if it has been
done, he will 10 it that it shall never be done
again. The answer showed more than anything he
has thus far been able do his entire fitness for the
position of Government Minister. He says with
every appearance of frankness and innocent good
will that no more shall be stolen, but he takes good
care not to promise that the things which have been
stolen shall be fetched back. The difficulty that
stood in the way of lis making any such promise,

Highness's pardon-the conveyers in this case are
none other than his most sacred Majesty, the En-
peror and his most sacred Majesty's Imperial
cousin, the Prince Jerome Napoleon. There are
three culprits but the third is Of less i'm

at least show of excuse for what he has done. The
articles stolen consist Of letters written by Napoleon
J. which compromise his character and prove that he

he has been lately proved to have and which Prince
Jerome could not bear the thought of ever seengput
into print. Too much of this, he thinks has been
done already and the Government of Napoleon Ill,
which pretends TO hold the memory of the great Ma
poleon in sort of veneratOn. has actually done
more by the authorized publication of is letters to
blacken his memory than all the democrats put to-

The other papers are documents relative to the
famous invasion of Boulogne being full report of
the trial and all the law papers which are necessary
TO establish the facts of this piece of treason beyond
suspicion of having been invented or dressed up by
the enemies OF the chief actor in it, His Majesty Ma
pOleOn Ill. a gentleman who has such holy horror
Of treason. In fact, this is the gentleman who has
stolen all these papers from the archives doubtless
with the excellent intention of preventing such
melancholy example of human weakness and would
be wckedness from being ever published in books,
and thus made familiar to French youth. FOrtu-
nately however have all the facts narrated with
the utmost minuteness and picturesqueness and set
forth in an Incompatible style in Kingakes History
