A LOAN CONTRACTED BY THE COUNT DF PARIS on HIS
ESTATES IL FRANCE-PRoVIsION AGAINST A
BoNAPARTIST REsToRATIoN-THE LATE ATTACK
on THE GERMAN CHANCELLOR.
IFRoN An OCCASIONAL CORRESPONDENT OF THE rRprSr
PARIS, Aug. 1.-THE French papers continu-
ally anudo 10 loan Of two or three millions OF
francs which, they say. has been contracted by the
Count de the security Of his recently restored
estates at Ambose the Loire and Eu near Dieppe
The Bonapartist papers, with their usual maleyoence
are continually sneerng at the head OF the House of
Orleans for the contraction OF this lOan am assured
that he has really raised the OF three million of
francs from the Credit Foncier, giving mortgage az
security on his landed property The Count de Paris
very far indeed from being rich man. and the
Chateaux OF AmbOise and Of Eu OF which he was re-
stored in possession by vote OF the Assembly are In
urgent need of repair and In order to carry this out
Is necessary for their owner 70 raise large sum OF
ready money This the story told by friends Of the
Orleans family and there is to believe 1t TO
be strictly correct far 1t goes say so far as /,
goes do not think that the repairs are at all
likely absorb the three millions which have been bor
rowed The fact suspect is that the Count de Paris is
giving one proof Of the old proverb, "A scaded
dog fears cold water" Ii is not impossible but at the
same time not probable that there may be Bona
partist the throne Of France which one
very first would certainly be TO seize on all tangible
roperty Of the Orleans family after having previously
expelled its members from the soil OF France. IL is
against the possible results of Of Empire to
France that the Count de Paris endeavors guarantee
himself by contracting mortgage on his real property
Should that property be concaed by any future Gov
ernment IN France, he would only lose the
gn between the amount OF the raised and the nomi-
Nal value OF the property In other words instead Of
being robbed OF the whole OF bis property he would
only lose oDethird Of IT, the present loan
