I have tried it and have seen the effect. But I am letting you into all Delsarte's most innermost secrets. PARIS, July, 1865. DEAR M., You must forgive me if I have not written lately; but we have been on a visit to the Duke and Duchess de Persigny for the past week.

His music is being very much played now "Fra Diavolo" and "Dieu et la Bayadere," and others of his operas. His music is like himself fine and dainty, and full of esprit; his name is Daniel Francois Esprit. M. de Persigny said, "Madame Moulton desires to know you, Monsieur Auber."
In May, 1851, Persigny had again sought to win Changarnier over to the "coup," and the "Miessager de l'Assemblee" newspaper had published this conversation. At every parliamentary storm, the Bonapartist papers threatened a "coup," and the nearer the crisis approached, all the louder grew their tone.
There is a letter from Jecker to Conti, in which he says that De Morny had promised him to get the Mexican Government to pay his claims on condition of receiving 30 per cent. of profits. A letter signed Persigny complains that an employé in the Cabinet Noir is in want, and ought to be given money to prevent his letting out secrets.
Major Parquin, who had been one of the Strasburg conspirators, was particularly unmanageable; and late in the afternoon he insisted on going ashore to buy some cigars, saying that those on board were detestable. In vain Persigny and Orsi, who in the prince's absence considered themselves to be in command, assured him that to land was impossible; Parquin would not recognize their authority.
