PARIS, June 17th. Whatever interest in-politics remains in Paris- "this week is centered on the election in Charente, ¡which will take place on Sunday next, for by the result of that election will be made clear how matters stand with Boulanger. He will stand or fall with Deroulede, whom he has described as his candidate: "To vole for Paul Deroulede is to vote for me." If Deroulede is beaten, a3 the chance appears at present to be, Boulanger, who has been sinking dreadfully of late, will fall like f.ucifer. If, on the other hand, the patriotic candidate beats the Government, we may look out for squalls. The Government is straining every pve to effect the defeat of Deroulede. His election, it is considered, would be practically a challenge in Germany, as Deroulede is the ayowed champion of la revanche, and the sad event which has just taken place in Berlin will reler it extremely dangerous to provoke Ger miany, "The election of Deroulede coinciding❘ with the accession of Prince William to the throne, would Billy the thesof were the

The Louvre scanial is greatly interesting the American colony, among the members of which Herrat was well known and much liked.

He loathes everything common, frequents only the best society, in variably shows himself at all fashionable' out- donr gatherings such as races, and growls at any one who, not being well dressed, ventures to approach him.
