our cotintryman Governor Everett.,
CR.
I ,had arrived at St. Cloud an invited
guest to dinner: Our partroriginally con
sisted of four Americans—the Minister,
Governor Everett, of Boston„Mr.
of Philadelphia, and the Legation.-

his name,,,l may nention - an incident con
cerning his invitation, which, proVes the
kind consideration of the
,Royal Family,
Not knowing his
,isidence :with certainty,
two notes had beet.addiesied to him, one
at PariS, ancianotler at ',Versailles, and each
had been sent by a special messenger; so
as to exclude-the possibility of any mistake.
The rest of our party had .agreed to• meet ,
in-the court of .ths•Chateau at the hour in
-dicated, which •was six-o'clock.. As. roy-,
alty must not be intruded upon before its
own time, so it mist not be kept waiting
after -the time . ' has arrived. Puncteialify,
-therefore, •which is always a virtue,' he
donics here a ditty of propriety, , As the
minister- was . af• Versailles, - and -Governor.

entered

. after' saluting the
cumpany, and conversing with the Anieri
can guests, took her seat—in - a - 110 7)f
cove, opening into a eallerry, which sur-
Mounts the court, and, commands a full
view of the Magnificent environs. The
minister soon -arrived, and then different
Members or the Royal Pamily, who were
followed by the Ring. The manners and
address of Louif! Phillippe are preposses
sing, and he has tharea§e - and self•possei r
sion which an- early knowledge of the
world and a participation in society never
lan tl givu. -
Although sixty-eight years of age,. his
appearance is firm, and his step elastic;
and-he-has a perfect command'of -himself;
'which enables him to-confrol his emotion,
.and to conceal from the world-whatever

and he `became quite particular in his at

that he knew the high consideration which
. this distinguished gentleman enjoys in our
-country, and he had too moth - sagacity not
to discover, after a very short interco u rse,
that his reputation was most justly found
ed. I more than °ace during the evening
felt proud-Of this representative of.Amari
