The Empress Eugene has a passion for
pretty faces, and greatly admires our
American girls. Here is what Paris cor
pondent says / was standing near an
American friend of mine at one of the re-
cent balls at the Tuileries, when the EN-
press, passing by, said to the gentleman in
question, Il don't see your niece here to-

time ago." The Ambassador was decidedly

dened to the temples. He had known the
Empress all her life, but it would have been
more gallant if he had not reminded her of
the days when she was young g-but hardly
more beautiful.
