The door fell with a crash; the soldiers poured in, and the female assassin was secured and disarmed. Eager to unravel the mystery, the police officer tore the mask from the face of the unknown, and recognized in the wild and inflamed features of the assassin of the Rue La Harpe, the Rue Richelieu, and the Boulevard des Italiens, his sister, Maria Lacour!
"And, if he were established on the Boulevard des Italiens," remarks M. Joyeuse thoughtfully, and he is launched forth! riding his chimera till it is brought to the ground suddenly with a gesture and these words uttered sadly: "Closed on account of bankruptcy."
Neither the Camusots nor the Popinots had sent him notice of Cecile's wedding. On the Boulevard des Italiens Pons saw M. Cardot coming towards them.
Naldi to let me buy it." In 1828 the principal members of the operatic company at the Italiens were Malibran, Sontag, Donzelli, Zuchelli, and Graziani. Malibran sang in "Otello," "Matilda di Shabran," "La Cenerentola," and "La Gazza Ladra." Jealous as she was by temperament, she always wept when Madamoiselle Sontag achieved a great success, saying, naively, "Why does she sing so divinely?"
She looked at him, understanding that he was speaking to her, as there was no one else there. For the third time the man said: "Vaugirard!" Then she asked: "Where are we?" He answered gruffly: "We're at Vaugirard, of course! I have been yelling it for the last half hour!" "Is it far from the Boulevard?" she said. "Which boulevard?" "The Boulevard des Italiens."

Talma, Mademoiselle Duchesnoir, Mademoiselle Mars, triumphed at the Francais; Mademoiselle Georges, at the Odeon; Nourrit, Levasseur, Madame Damoreau, Taglioni, at the Opera; Sontag, Pasta, Malibran, and Rubini at the Italiens. The Viscount de la Rochefoucauld wished in every way to raise the moral level of the theatre.
The light shone upon the playbills on an adjacent wall; the theatres were open. I looked at the trees as I passed. They were playing Hernani at the Theatre des Italiens, with a new tenor named Guasco. The Place de la Bastille was frequented, as usual, by goers and comers, the most peaceable folk in the world.
The struggles of the poor student in Paris, if skilfully drawn, would furnish a most dramatic picture of modern civilization. In vain Mme. de Beauseant looked at Eugene as if asking him to speak; the student was tongue-tied in the Vicomte's presence. "Are you going to take me to the Italiens this evening?" the Vicomtesse asked her husband.
"There is no help for it, I suppose, Hal, is there?" he said. Dartmouth looked back at him with a smile, and a good deal of affection in his eyes. "No, old fellow," he replied; "I am afraid there is not. But they are rarely as bad as this last. And thank you for coming." They went out together and walked to the Café Anglais on the Boulevard des Italiens.
