It would be a pity if this name were lost.

At the same time as this placard appeared the protest of M. Daru, as follows:--

"I approve of the proceedings of the National a.s.sembly at the Mairie of the Tenth Arrondiss.e.m.e.nt on the 2d of December, 1851, in which I was hindered from partic.i.p.ating by force.

"DARU."

Some of these members of the Consultative Committee came from Mazas or from Mount Valerien. They had been detained in a cell for four-and-twenty hours, and then released. It may be seen that these legislators bore little malice to the man who had made them undergo this disagreeable taste of the law.

Many of the personages comprised in this menagerie possessed no other renown but the outcry caused by their debts, clamoring around them.

Such a one had been twice declared bankrupt, but this extenuating circ.u.mstance was added, "not under his own name:" Another who belonged to a literary or scientific circle was reputed to have sold his vote. A third, who was handsome, elegant, fas.h.i.+onable, dandified, polished, gilded, embroidered, owed his prosperity to a connection which indicated a filthiness of soul.
