The gossip of the Legitimist circles appreciated those favours with smiling indulgence. He was the man who had been so distressed and frightened by Doña Rita’s first visit to Tolosa. He had an extreme regard for his wife. And in that sphere of clashing arms and unceasing intrigue nobody would have smiled then at his agitation if the man himself hadn’t been somewhat grotesque.
Legitimist under the empire, a parliamentarian tinder the legitimist regime, republican under the constitutional monarchy, defending Christianity when France was philosophical, and taking a distaste for religion as soon as it became once more a serious power, the secret of these endless contradictions in him was simply the desire to reign alone like the sun a devouring thirst for applause, an incurable and insatiable vanity, which, with the true, fierce instinct of tyranny, would endure no brother near the throne.
"We will wish the young lady no such dreary fate," laughed Anthony. "Fortunately for her, she is not troubled by your scruples." "How do you know she is n't?" asked Susanna. "We can safely take it for granted," said he. "Besides, you have told me so yourself." "I have told you so ?" she puzzled. "You have told me that there is but one legitimist in Sampaolo.
Hector and Ajax, in that disguise, were as great favourites as Horatius on the Bridge, or the younger Tarquin. Scott, by the way, must have made one a furious and consistent Legitimist. In reading the "Lays of Ancient Rome," my sympathies were with the expelled kings, at least with him who fought so well at Lake Regillus: "Titus, the youngest Tarquin, Too good for such a breed."

Thus, in politics, here is M. de Sombreterre, who is a Legitimist; M. Vallin, an Orleanist; M. Patissot and myself, Republicans; we all have very different principles, and yet we agree very well because we have them." But M. Rade exclaimed: "I also have principles, gentlemen, very distinct ones." M. Patissot raised his head and coldly asked: "It would please me greatly to know them, monsieur."
He bent low; he timidly apologized; he offered to appoint any Ministry whatever at the behest of the parliamentary majority; he even implored the Orleanist and Legitimist party leaders the Thiers, Berryers, Broglies, Moles, in short, the so-called burgraves to take hold of the helm of State in person. The party of Order did not know how to utilize this opportunity, that was never to return.
I am answerable only for Legitimist voters; I have secured Madame de Watteville, and that means all the aristocracy of Besancon. Amedee de Soulas and Vauchelles, who will both vote for you, have won over the young men; Madame de Watteville will get the old ones. As to my electors, they are infallible." "And who on earth has gained over Madame de Chavoncourt?" asked Savarus.
And his neighbor, a Legitimist also, replied, "He reminds me of the Duc d'Angoulême." What a contrast to Tamisier! Tamisier, frank, earnest confident, although a mere Captain of Artillery, had the bearing of a General.
My father looked at me, shook his head, and twirled his long grey moustache. "Bonapartist or Legitimist, again I say what doth he here?" muttered he presently, more to himself than to me. "If Legitimist, why not with his King? If Bonapartist then he is his King's prisoner; not ours. It passeth my comprehension how we should hold him at Bruehl."
Before daylight, immediately after the arrest of the Questors MM. Baze and Leflô, M. de Panat, the only Questor who remained free, having been spared or disdained as a Legitimist, awoke M. Dupin and begged him to summon immediately the Representatives from their own homes. M. Dupin returned this unprecedented answer, "I do not see any urgency."
