THE GEAR AND EUGENlE'S BOY,

tl"ndon Correspondence n. y. World.l
Nou already know that on Saturday
the Gar went to ChisClhurst and visit
ca TIL" Empress Eugcnic. This was a
rather significant event. 1t might
mean no more than that the Car, being.
gentleman. wished to bc polite to II
iauN VINO some years ago had extended
TO him magnificent hospitality; but, on
IN" other hand, il might be an intcn-
tionai manifestation of the belief of tho
Car that ere long tho Empress would
ne hNlng IN Paris again. 1t happened
that the Prince Imperial was not ut
Camden House when the Car arrived
there His Majesty expressed regret ut
this misfortune. The fact is that M
polcon ~ was at his military school at
oolwich, and had not asked for leave
Of absence. Tho Car said that he
wished to sec him, and the Empress
promised that his wish should be graf
fled. 50 yesterday, Sunday, tho
Prince came to town, and the Car re-
"civcd him at buckingham Palace.
They had Il long conversation. Who
shall say what passed between them:
When the Car last saw the Prince the
latter was u boy OF eleven Years, and
his father was believed to be the most
powerful OF European sovcreigns. Tho
boy is now Il man and his father sleeps
III the little chapel ut Chisclhurst.
There Is "A rumor that the Car WAS
greatly affected at this interview,
and the Prince went away with Il
strangely excited air. With Russia as
an ally Franco could easily gain her
revenge upon Germany. but what is
the Use of specializing upon such things:'
