Diary of the Besieged Resident in Paris

CHAPTER I
43/56

_Figaro_ announces that Villemessant has returned.
We are given a dozen paragraphs about this humbug of humbugs, his uniform, &c., &c.

I do not think that he will be either killed or wounded.

The latest telegram from the outer world announces that "Sir Campbell"-- medecin Anglais--has arrived at Dieppe with despatches to the Ministers of Foreign Affairs and of Marine.
11 A.M.
Paris very quiet and very despondent.

Few soldiers about.

The Line is reviled, the Mobile extolled.
