NAPOLEON AS An AUTuoR-HE Is SUED By
HIS PUBLIsnxR.-M. Plon, the wcllknown
pubIsher of the "Rue de id Gar dnc'ere,"

The suit brought by NJ. Plon is against
"l.ouis Charles Napoleon Bonapartc, for
merly Emperor of the French, and now re-
siding at ChiseIhurst, England" and the de-
mand is that that parsonage shall pay to his
prosecutor the SUM of 333, 800 francs and 20
ccntimcs. The claim H. to lie tried at the
First Chamber of the Civil Tribunal at the
opening Of the next term, and is for print
in. and delivering the small edition, so
called, Of the Life of Cesar The delivery in
question consisted in sending the gratuitous
copies to "frnctionaries," reviewers. and
other influential persons, most OF whom
for they were sent NIL over Europe-roundly
abused the poor Emperor's work, even when
they were not called upon as journalists to
express any public opinion. This, doubt
less, was partly in confirmation of the mana.
gers maxim that "orders always hiss" but
il really seems very hard on the unhappy
author, u heaping up, as 1t were, of his mis-
fortunes, that, having lost throne and trea-
sure, he should now he openly sued in Il
court of law to pay for the copies of his work
that were given forth to bring him con-
tumely. "Oh. that my enemy would write
