NapOleon's Gala Drive-Pr0pOsed
Change of Residence.
Napoleon's gala drive created some dis
pleasure in court circles. The vehicle
used on that occasion was the Imperial
open carriage brought from Sedan, con-
tanning nine seats. As q delicate hint,
two of the Kings State carriages, with
two seats each, were sent for the future
use of the Emperor, who, understanding
fully the meaning of this polite attention,
has ever since kept within doors. Ac-
cording to his doctors, he is unwell, suf
fering from the draughts and cold of the
castle. A change of residence is pro-
posed, either to the Palace of ExPalatinate
Cassel or to Bellvue Castle, near Berlin,
occupied once by his uncle as a winter
residence.
