They enter the Tuileries. The Emperor of the French expressed his keen appreciation of the objects of their grand and adventurous tour. With respectful earnestness he asked many questions in regard to it; especially in relation to political developments. In reply to a question by the American in reference to the assumptions of his own dynasty, he asseverated that it was a Napoleonic conception, maxim and design, “that the virtues and rights of the people could and should be asserted under the one-man _representative_ power--that Imperialism and Republicanism could be identicalized in and under governmental action. That no other kind of government either suited or would satisfy the French.

Before it the American was irresistibly affected by the awe, wonder and curiosity, which may be felt for the majesty of mind. The travellers now proceed to Bordeaux; where, seated in a _salon_, and the American being thirsty, the best brandy and claret are set before them. They taste them with relish, and discuss their merits. Suddenly the Disembodied exclaims, “Day is approaching, I must return to my body. Let us fly.”
