A special correspondent Of the Figaro,
who lately made visit to Chiselhurst,
gives the following detAils concerning
the Prince Imperial:
The Prince is of average hight and
well looking; his teeth are extremely
fine and his month like that Of the Em-
press, while the remainder OF his face
resembles Lis fathers. On the upper
lip a small brown mustsche is beginning
to makeits appearance. His voice is
full, so'Lorous and well fitted to COM
mand.( To sum up, the Prince has all
the Ru-ce Of his age; he is gay, imagina.
tive aud French. Showing me small
piece OF furniture in which all his school
exeT cises we're place d. he said: / pre-
serve aud regard them with pleasure; do
you know why2 Because | am en-
clsnted at having them to do again.
Plis daily labor is something extraordi-
'lary for one of his age. Rising at day
break, he sets apart all the morning for
study. His professors are English, re.
siding in London He is now Of age To
be admitted to Oxford, but it was pre-.
terred that he should study at Chisel.
hurst the higher branches Of education.
After lunch the Prince rides out; be has
three saddle horses, and among them
Hero, the we'll known sorrel OF the En-
peror. eIometimes in fine weather he
walks o'it with the Empress Two OF
three tiDles a week he goes to London tc
take lessons in fencing. which is his
great amusement; he also practices al
home With Count Bassano. Without
being attach ed to the British army, be
occasionally takes part in the drill Of q
battery of artillery, 10 which some o
his Woolwich comrades belong; it is {
fete for them when he goes to Aldershot
II stated that the Prince said nothing
about France no one would believe me
But as my instructions are not to occupy
myself with politics, | am restrained
from giving an account of our converse
tion, which lasted nearly thirty.6ve min
ntes; / can on,y say that when left tn,
Prince l was absolutely charmed.
