PARIS, July 2sd, 1878.
Every great metropolis has, and has
had centre-a heart, the focus of life, of
character, and movement In Rome, the
Forum with its classic memories; in Lon :
don, Regent street; in New York, Broad
way; and 10 Paris modern Paris-the
Boulevards. Other points haYe been more
central and more fashionable in the Paris
of the past, for the Boulevards' interiors
were once exteTiors, and their history and
chronology is known. But the Palais
Royal, the Louvre, and other centres of
attraction have been eclipsed by these
Boulevards, which represent the type, the
essence of Paris life in all its originality
and piquancy. Formed in the seventeenth
century, the Boulevards were at FIRST the
bulwarks or ramparts of Paris, when the
nightingales frequented the groves re-
placed by the present Boulevards Hauss-
man and Malesherbes, and lovers strolled
iu the howery fields about the Chaussee
dAntin. They have many inter
esting historical associations. Mon
golfer, the inventor of balloons
lived in the Boulevard street Denis; the
assassin Fieschi pointed his internal ma
chine against Louis Philippe from No. sc
Boulevard du Temple, and the noted
beauty, Ninon de L'Enclos, lived on the
same Boulevard. No. %; while the wei
known Boulevard des Italiens, the zenitf
of Partisan animation in 1915. was inha
bited by the celebrated comedian Regnard
