Tho French Feeling In Regard to
Napslcon's Death.
All French residents Of the city, ex-
cept a very small clique of Bonapart-
lists, speak Of the death of the ex-Em-
peror with qualification. The two
French dailies display a similar spirit.
The Courier DIES Etats Unis says: $50
soon as we received the tldlngs we VS.
tied the French residents Of this city,
whose opinions are worth much con-
sideration, and w conversed much OH
the subject OF his death, but on all
hands the subject was met with bitter
and contemptous smiles, which spoke
volumes of satisfaction aud disdain."
The Messenger remarks: "His princi.
pal merit during life was in being a
good comedian. The strangest thing
of all Is the existence Of a Bonapartist
party In France. Let us hope the
widow at Chiselhurst will have the
good taste not to encourage their con-
s~piracies In ~perverting her son, and
enticing him on in the path Of ruin
where these misled persons would con-
duct him."
