to enliven the sp

THE LAST MOMENTS OF PRINCJE
j TALLEYRAND.
jTowards the middle of the day the Prince
began to grow more restless and feverish. J
could not resist the temptation of seeking
rejieF from the? attfledl air fof that close
chamhert and passed through to the draw
in rooha lll way vriily astounded at the
scqe which there met my eyes Neter
ahll I fprget the impressiou produced by the
transit! -a fioto that silent room th iV bed
of ! suffering to the crowded apartment
wtjere "troops of friends", all the elite ot
id society at f ans were assembled. 1 hejre
was a 4t not of busy politicians, with ribands
at iheiL button botes some with powder
edjheadg, some with bald heads gathered
around the blazing fire; their animated con
verpationalthough conducted in a low tone
by the good taste and feeling of him who
directed it, filled the apartment with its un
ceasing inurmut.' 1 observed, too, some of
the diplomatist's oddest j friends, who had
corpe hither from real and sincere attach
mept,'and who took no part in the eager de
bates of jthese political champions..
Lmoag others the Count De .M he whom
I-have never seen but as the prime wit of
all ioyous re-onions whose pungent Joke
ana biting, sarcasm have become the bores &,
twa-dJler, for they cling forever like burrs to
thole against whom the prince himself dared
not; upon all occasions, to measure himself
in me Keen SKirmtsn ot intellect, now ' sat
silent and sorrowful apart
from the rest, ap
parintly lost in thought,
nor heeding the
various details ot toe scene which was en
acting around htm, and which, had it been
elsewhere, wonld not have failed to call
forth soma of the sharp and hitler traits
i or wmcn oejs so murn treaded, in one
corner was seated a coterie of ladies, dis
eussng topics entirely foreign to the time
and place. Sometimes a low burst of licht
taugmer would issue1 from among them, id
spite of the reprimanding chut' which, up-
ma sjich occasions, rose from - the further
end pf the room, On a sofa near the win
do lay extended, at full length, the youth
ful apd Dutchess de V. with a bevy of young
beaux -all robber like and "jeune France,"
kneeling on the carpet besido her, or sit
ting low at her feet on the cushions of the
divaLJJ''- j '.. ; .!
'Niej scene was altogether one of other
tirnef, it seemed as though the lapse of
cntrieij might f be forgotten r and that
we ere 'carried back at a bound to days of
Louis Quatorze, and to the death bed of

in the drawing room, whispeied a few words
in his earl. He arose instantly and entered

which mpeded his sight, and gazed around;

From my profession, and the circumstan

en to my lot to be witness of more than one
death scene, but never in any case did the
sentiments displayed at that awful hour ap
pear so tit erly consistent with the character
borne by any individual during life, as the
cafeofjtbe Prince de Talleyrand. He saw
death app oach neither with shrinking nor
with fear, nor yet with any affectation of
gcbrn cr .of defiance, but rather with cool
and steady courage, as a well-matched hon
orable foe1 with whom he bad wrestled long
and bravely, and to whom, now tfjat he was
fairly vanquished, be deemed it no shame
to yield, nor blushed to lay.down bis arms

Paris March S I .
ARE WE TO HAVE A REVOLUT10:
, OR A GOVERNMENT ?
The following very interesting convcr -tibn
passed between one of ihe leading c';
tors in the revolution of July, 1830, t:
mj self, yesterday afternoon. The indif it! :1
in question took VTer? leading part in t!
revision of the charter, is a cool, calm.lo;
headed man, without passion sod with ' :
prejudice I met him yesterday at a rettdt--vousiof
politicians and authors. 1 ti '
the questions, and he replid as follows :
Q,. Well, and what do you think of p I
that is passing ? You have seen wither:
accuracy and have predicted events as th.
have taken place. What is your 'opinion ?
Are we to have a ministry, or a: revolu
tion ? ? ;'. "
A Both. You will have a ministry f r
the moment but a revolution for tho fu
ture. . . ' i, : .. . ! '
Q But what do you mean by a rcvc!
tion?
A.' Why, I mean, that Louis Philip
must abdicate, or his throne will be dec! tr
ed vacant, and ! do not .think that his j-::
wil) stand a better chance than himself Wc
may take the Count do Pans, bul not t!.
Duke of Orleans. .-.--v '. ,-v m
w ' "--
. Q, But why should you lake the' 'Count
de Parisian infant with all ihe trouble
expense of a monarchy, without the ur.it
and force of one. ;
A. Because we have not yet got over r .:r
apprehensions of a republic ; I speak of ll.a
mass of the people and provided we h:vc
a nominal monarchy, that will be suiacicnt
to satisfy he timid. '
Q. And if to-morrow you could Iiavo
your Count de Paris, would you bo saiij-
tied? . iyj--y-i
A. Yes, I think we should for a time; frr
webhould have a total revision of all our
electoral system, and this is the secret of &!!.
We ; want a government of the majority.
At present we should be . satisfied with a
parliamentary majority. What we rni-t
require later I cannot tell, but the hi,
thing we require is a monarchy.
Q Bat surely, when you come to find
out that a regency is asexpensite as a mon
archy, and open to more intrigues, you wiil
be for getting rid of that also, and corcir.j
to a republic? - , " j
A. That. is possible but for the moment
the programme is a nominal monarchy, sr.;I
a parliamentary majority. Out electoral
system is radically bad, that it must 1 3
changed. The country feels this. It istf.3
only thing ithhorougbly understands. .With
Louis Philippe or the Duke of Orleans, via
shall not get the electoral system we re
quire, and therefore wc want a nomin si co-
narchy. ';V'-l'';
Q. And if you had jour Count de Puiz
as the nominal monarchy, arid your electo
ral system wholly changed so ss to let in Mi. z
capacities,' as y ou call them, would 'you 13
satisfied theu? - v.
A. In all cases we must have war. Tl : 1
is' indispensable. ' If Louis , Philippe 1:1
made war five years ago, he would not hats
been in these embarrassments now. War
is essential to us. We shall tear each ctl cr
to pieces some of these days if we do net
have war. We are all sick of each ether.
Our public men do not inspire us with con
fidence. We must war, to bring forth rcr?
men and new, energies. With war, we sbcuM
see a new generation of men entirely, and
the country would have chiefs in whom ilz
would trust. If any man of genius and
courage should rise up in the midst of the: 2
events, who Would ciy Cross the Alps la
Italy! 'Cross the Rhine to Germany! 1.2
would have 500.000 men at his back ta cr.
hour's time. We must have war. !
Q, Do you think Louis Napoleon h:3
any chance, of success in sucb anevent?
A His chances are excellent on account
of the name he bears. You must remem
ber that the army is all Bonapartist bow
officers and men, to ibe last, demand war ,
and the name of Napoleon would be etcry
thins for them. We do not want liberty ia
France we, want equality.
Q. What an avowal ! So, after a revo
lution of 50 years.vou do not want liberty I
A. No : and never dii. D not deccna
yourself. The more revolutionary we shculd
become, the less we should giro cf hbcrtj
to private citizens. v , T
