AD INTERVIEW DETWEDD NAPOLEO 111. AND ODILON DARNCOL ITYol,lBlated from tho'foriO, 4440.1 In the year 1849 the Print& PreSldea sent his adjutant, Edgar Ney;'ite'L the then Prime, Minister of the French Republic, Odilon Barrot. Dleywas the bearer of a letter and of a casket. The latter contained the grand ,cordon of the Order of the te.gion of Honor. The' Prime Minister °wet), the casket, and , gale • it , back. The.leiter , coutained the' following 4,4 Political differences of oiduion. induce me to partwith your. colleagues. I belleye that you are so'closely connected With; 'theta that I am aMid you will follow them. It is, there fore; with the -utmost regret that 'r take leave ; of you." ; , • , , And then— This 4.and then" was the ,brolteu egg from , which flowed the " Personal- Power" which prevailed for twenty years since: :Odilon .Barrot Was bed-ridden.. We do not trelleve that he rose, la genuine' xiconvaleseent, Tt611.1 his sick 'bed. 7 7 he Emperor Napoleon llierbird had itivited Emile ollivier to germ' a rudiment4ty Ministry. In so doing, ,tbe Emperor bad:returned to the year 1849. tile ollivier, whoni the perfornianee of . his 'task greatly embarrassed, informed his sovereign lit the obStacles he encountered, in his path. ' ‘ '. — And thus it happened that--Which is en tirely .unknown up to the present day the, Emperor wrote to the young Pitt of the situa- lion : • • "I have some reason to hope that considera tions of patriotism would induce M. Odilon 413tirrot to return to the management of public Oflairs.' $o I Wistiyou would visit him in my Mun. lf he should declare ready to accept., time portfolio of Justice, I should regard it as a great'deed, and as a genuine service rendered to France. . NAroir.EoN." Emile 011ivier, after receiving this Imperial letter, wrote a note to M. Odilon Barrot, the Vadat statesman, Minister and orator, and 'eotoinissioned'hiS friend and adviser, M, Man rice,Richard, to, convey it.to him. He aakedin it, that, hI. Odilon Barrot should grafit • him an interview, in order to consult with him on pub lic:questions of the highest importance. M. Odilon Barrot accepted the interview re quested by M. Emile-011ivier, not, however, as preliminary to a' ministerial engagement, but in ,order tO • hav'e . au opportunity to express his views concerning the .great and vital interests of his native country. The interview between the two political celebrities took place. On that occasion 31. 011ivier offered the portfolio of Justice to 31. Odilon Barrot. • ,Vould Id. Callon Barrot have accepted that portfolio •if it had been offered to him in another form? For our part, we believe that be, the old parliamentary Minister and Consti tutionalist, would have done so if the Emperor himself had tendered it to him. _ In short, they agreed in reference to one point, that is to say, on the necessity of the ' Government returning to the old parliamentary rigimm -- 0111vier, who had received full powers-- from his sovereip,lhe Emperor, was reluctant oh account of an exalted position that. would have. allowed M. Odilon Barrot to meddle with the consultations of the rising statesmen in re gard to the'new policy of the GoVernment. And then M. Odilon Barrot declined again; basing his 'refusal—what a diplomat this old lion of 1849 is !--Lon hiS affvanced age. The EMperor, however, insisted on it that M. Odilon Barrot should he won over to the :New Era ; he regretted the failure of the efforts " that had been made to that effect up to that time, and expressed the desire to have an in terview with him, after they had not met fw so many sears past. So M. Emile 011ivier wrote another note to M. Odilon Barrot, of which M. Alaurice Was again the hearer, and, in consequence, the old Prime Minister of 1849 consented to go to the Tuileries. The' inter view, it was arranged, was to take place on Wednesday last. Now the new • Ministers are still so inexperienced in the performance of their duties that they forgot that there was a Cabinet meeting on that day. In consequence of that the interview between Odilon Barrot and Napoleon the Third tivus postponed to Friday, the 7th of January, at two in the after noon. On the day appointed, M. Emile 011ivier called for M. Odilon Barrot at his residence and took him to the palace of the Tuileries. The Emperor Napoleon received the man who had been, his Minister of,Justice during the times of the Republic, and whom he had not semi for twenty years. M. Emile 011ivier ushered his illustrious pre decessor into the Imperial Cabinet and W 4.3 present at the whole interview. The Emperor, dressed in his frock coat, which was buttoned up to the throat, smilingly went to meet his ex- Minister, 'and held out both bands to him. "Oh, good day, my dear M. Barrot," I , e said, "how glad I am to meet you again!" "1 am very much obliged to you," replied his guest. " You have not changed ; let rue tell yo; that you look exceedingly well," coutinu Emperor napoleon. "Sire, you, too, look very well, and y t w have not, seen one another since the yea "Yes. yes; 'and twenty years have Fused since that time." "Twenty years! Still that space of tint cannot but leave its traces.r And thus the theme of conversation had been found. The Emperor took Odilon Barrot by thci hand, conducted - film to the green-baize writing-table, motioned him to take a seas at, his right hand side, and beckoned to his new Minister of Justice to sit down on the right of M. Odilon Barrot. The illustrious Men conversed • without any restraint whatever. The Sovereign had given place tothe interesting conversationalist, ankl, to judge front his conduct, to the iutimato and sincere friend: Napoleon ILL repeated to Odilon Barrot the oiler that be shoiald accept one of the highest dignities of the Empire, and he assured his ex-Miuister that be had unreservedly entered upon path of constitutional parliamentarisin. -*Yes; the path of 1849—:," replied Odilon Barrot. - "Why, I could not help myself at that time. bad enemies." *'Sire! The Chief of a State never has ene rniesl he has only opponents. lie delivers his enemies into the hands of Justice, or what is still better, to public Opinion. It is precisely be cause Charles X. treated his opponents as ad versaries that be—" "Yes,' yea," said the Emperor; "bat L had -.friends, , :"Ab;it was they, perhaps, that did the gisiat est injury to the Empire," replied Odilon • Bar rot. "A sovereign should always lean only on the, right of the honest people. Where did your system lead to? Why, Sire, it led your • Prefects to certify to the fact that you had three million five hundred thousand eumniei, in France!" • , - And thus the conversation proceeded in a serious, but sympathetie tone, while the Emperor, never temoVitiglis thigers from pia mustache, lent a willing 'ear to what his old 4-Miriistor said to him, and Emile 011ivior added every now and then a ,word to the con versation. Thie conversation lasted an hour and a lietlt and at the close of the interview, the . Emperor ausgired his old friend with great' Warmth that, he was ex meth ugly glad to have met him again, and he hoped the interview would not be the last they low(' havo - rait at youridisPosal, Sire," replied °till , • B arr ot, as be sow) b&mret the Eiliporor. g , Well, then, it' yon do not want to neeomi-3 A member of the Cabi net, pray accept the pis:- , , tion or:PiOnuratotta s tuidal at,4iho SOprerue' Court.

' He was scarcely seventeen whett,in 1832, be Went to the United States, where Ile remained at Point Breeze, New Jer sey, in the house,- of his uncle, Joseph Bona parte, ex-King of Spain. Here he became ac quainted with General Santander, of Colombia, South America, who persuaded him to take part in the sanguinary disturbances, to this day the opprobriuni of most of the South Amer ican States. He gave the new recruit a major's commission in some cavalry regiment. Prince Pierre soon became satiated with this blood and crime stained antvcby, and returned' to Italy. Like all of the 'younger members of, the - Bonaparte:family (the' eldest brother of the French Emperor regnant was kiled in an in surrection in the States of the Legation in 1E33), Prince. Pierre was soon steeped to the lips in' political conspiracies for the overthrow of the Pope's temporal power. It was notlong . before he became so active a earbonctro (so these conspirators were called) that he received ordeis to leave the States of the Legation.. This was iri 1536, when lie consequently was just turned 21. He refused to obey the oriler. A strong detachment of the Pontifical -army was sent to execute the order of extrusion. Prince Pierre resisted. Arms were used on both sideS.' Prince Pierre killed the captain in com mand, Captain Castellacci, a highly esteemed man, wounded two soldiers, and was so severely wounded himself as easily to be made prisoner. He remained some years confined in San Angelo 'Castle. He says he bore this captivity 4, with the disdain a miserable court cannot but in - spire to a man who has blood in his veins." At; AIN 1N THE I.7NITED STATES. The first use he made of his liberty was to return to the United States. It was, however, a mere flying visit; he quickly returned to Europe, made a brief visit to England, and was next heard of in the lonian Lslands. One day he determined to go shooting:in Greece. You know it is so near that the lonian Islands horsemen not unfrequentt, at low tide, came from tke main to these islands and return the Same day. Prince Pierre hired a boat which could be impelled by oars or by sails, and went, to Greece. A customs officer, a sort of tide waiter, named Pallikares, attempted to search the boat, as was his duty: AxtreitEt; NalinErt. Prince Pierre haughtily ordered him off. Palkkates'refused to go. Prince Pierre shot him down: Pallikares's age (he was a • gray beard and a grandfather), and the general es teem in which he N% as held, roused to it 'very high pitch the indignation of the Greeks at this brutal, unprovoked murder, and the =lmo tion on shore hecome'so great, Prince Pierre saw his only safety lay in flight, and he re turned as fast as his boat could go to the lonian Islands. The English authorities no sooner were made acquainted with the dastardly act than they ordered Prince Pierre to quit the islands, and took measures (which were suc cessful) to obtain a Sum of money for Path ' •kares's lantilv -from the -assassi friends: -:11e. returned to Western Etirope, and after making inefectual attempts to otaain service 'under Mehemet Ali and a commission in the French Foreign -Legion, he wandered about England, Belgium, Holland and Germany until the revo littien of 1848 gave all adventurers who could pietend to be Frenchmen a chance to better their condition. sTriJ, ER During his stay in Belgium, another 'san guinary episode (recline(' in his career. 'it is shimmed in a good deal of obscurity ; the only clear circumstance in it is that he assassinated. somebody ; one story goes that the person as sassinated was a poacher, another that a game keeper irritated the Prince and was shot down. He returned to Paris in 1848, and obtained a commission as major in the Foreign ~J.,egion. He .was ordered to Attica, where the legion serves, but did not remain there long: At !the siege of Zaatcha be was about to lead his soldiers to the assault of a redoubt, when the colonel of the regiment gave him a severe scolding about some order which he bad misinterpreted. Prince Pierre, without saying a word, turned his horse around, rode back to camp, packed his clothes anti pro- . ceeded tO Paris. Had his reputation for courage not been well established, this reckless ness would have been attended with awkward consequences. His first visit in Paris was paid the Minister of .War (General P. llatitpoul), who Was amazed to see him, and the following Aityhis . eeruniissiOn was cancelled. This event . gave Ilse to some in the Coiistiti eiif Assembly..,.. . course of, the debate the Ninister of War speaking of his courage said a skirmish hail taken place, before the as sault of Zaatcha was ordered,. and the Prince Pierre had • HILLER AN ABAD ivith his own hand, which was to be expected from a man who bore the name of o' Bona patte."

He lived sometimes in Corsica and . sometimes at Auteuil. He rarely went to the Tuileries ; for, while receiving honors and money froin the Emperor, he pretended to be wounded by the confiscation of the public liberties. , • PRINCE PIERRE: 7 a PERSONAL APPEARANCE. His bead is relatively small for his body. It seems formed of unusually strong bones. It is almost round, inclined to be bald, for the brown hair is sparse; it is smooth and well arranged. There is a slight depression a little above each temple between the eyebrows, which gives the face rather a singular expression. His eyebrows are arched, but, without shading the eye, which seems -Ana& of Polished brOwn agate. It is small, bright; but not intellectual; the left eye has a very slight tendency to squint. The lower eyelid is swollen and furrowed .by small veins--Lthe eyelid of a man of ungovernable temper. His nose is fat rather than! nervous. His mouth and lower jaw are . hidden by a moustache and an immense beard. The diameters of his , face at the cheek-bone and at the chin are the same. His cheeks are heavy, fat, and pale. His ears seem glued to the head. He has an unusually short neck. PRINCE PIERRE'S AUTEUIL MUSE Ilishouse at Auteuil orimbelen,ged to Mmo..- Helvetins,. and was the. rendezVous of the ' brilliant society " of the Encyclopedia" of the eighteenth century. Dr. Franklin was a frequent guest there, and a tradition is current here that he was more intimate with Mme. Delvetius than good morals would warrant. It is at this place Mme. Heivetius entertained Napoleon on his return frOm Egypt, and - showed him over the grounds,saying "If you knew. the happiness to found in the possession' of two acres, you would never seek to be master of the world." The house is a plain mansion, Whose great luxury is its size and 'numerous windows, which afford a plenty of light and air. The first floor is reached by some twenty steps,, which usher the visitor into the Salle d'Arine:y, or fencing-room, ' which in a sort of ante chamber to the drawing-room. It is quite bare of furniture; at one end is a very valuable collec tion of arms of every age and every nation of the world. The drawing-room is a large square room with wooden wainscoting carved and painted gray. The wooden wainscot covers all sides of the room •except one end, which is adorned with mirrors divided into panels, simulating doers: Opposite the chimney-piece is a large, photograph of the Emperor, the only picture in'the room. "That," said Prince Pierre to a visitor who expressed a surprise' that he should have no other ornament in his drawing-room, "That is the bead of our family—nobody should dispute place with:it ; this is the reason why I allow no other picture on my drawing-room walls.", The clock and candelabra on the chimney are very valuable specimens of the art of the first Empire. On the chimney-piece there is a beautiful model, in gold, of Napoleon's tomb in the Invalides ; on a consale there is a bust of the Empress. The furniture is of red vel vet. 'ln the middle of the room is a table: opposite the tire-place, and leaning against the wall, is a sofa; arm-chairs are scat tered about the room. There are three"doors in the drawing-room—one leading into the fencing-room, another into the billiard-rOom, - and a ''third (immediately opposite the latter) opening into Prince Pierre's bedchamber, which is at tbe. same time his studio and li brary: This bedchamber is as !WIZ as the fencing-room. and drawing-room both to gether.. At the furthest end are wardrcibes , tilled with Prince Pierre's clothes and linen. In the middle is a large, wide, old-fashioned bed, without curtains; the walls are..covered . by shelves- filled'with books' ' in a corner of the chamber is a .wash-stand; the chimney- ,- piece is one of thoseold-fashioned stone ones, wide . 'and deep enough to burn a cord of wood at a time. Near the window overlooking the grounds is an irn inense table, as wide as the room itself, cov ered with books, maps, papers, plans, ,mathe matical instruments, letters, etc. On the op posite side of the drawing-room is the billiard teem, which is reached by a door in the corriei . of the wall, so that a person leaving the draw ing-room is almoSt , obliged to go down , the right side of the biiliard,room, as the table is towards the latter's left-hand side. The Prin cess's rooms aro on the second floor of the house. She has quitted the house and taken refuge , in Paris: She received hundreds et' anonyMous letters daily menacing her children , with death.—;-N. Y:)Vorld. HARDWARE, &C.

Henry interest:, the musical composer, asked me to write a song for him, leaving the subject.to my OWn selection, in a walk, on the battery at New York, the sight of vessels in the harbor dashing through the sparkling waters in, the morning sunlight, suggested the "Life on the Ocean Wave." had finished it before my, Walk Was completed, I showed it to a friend, himself a 'song:-Writer; whose`setiticlem was that " it was a.

All the pub lic institutiona were visited, and, wilt* the ex. ception of the Almshouse, they were found to be in good order.

They have not the necessary apart ments to keep the convalescents from the in curable patients ; and from thislault their re covery is greatly retarded. We would recom mend that the necessary enlargements tie coin- menced as soon as possible, that " thii worthy charity may be placed hi such a position as to reflect credit on our city. "As to the condition of the other depart ments; •we found them to be greatly over crowded,and we could see that the faults elm - Mg to our notice—such as lack of proper sanitary measures;ill-made bread, want of proper dis cipline, and 'the employment of the pauper's and their general appearance—were occasioned by incompetency of the executive head.

"We regret to find that those -sinks of iniquity, called concert saloons, are on the in creasy. We attribute them as the cause for many of the bills which have been presented to us. At all of these places the law of Selling liquor to minors is constantly being violated; and we would suggest that hereafter all such licenses should be withheld, as it is impossible to remedy the evil but by cutting away the roots by so doing much would be done for morality, and many cases of larceny, embez zlement and drunkenness he scopped. In connection with this we Would mention the inewase of unlicensed dram-shops, and would suggest that the High Constable and his subor- dinates exercise a more stria:attCntiori to this growing evil, as we find that this matter has been neglected." the ,lbmitear_ was the official . organ. a critic 'in cohitnns ' quoted one day a modern Alexandrine line.
