Diary of the Besieged Resident in Paris

CHAPTER IV
32/32

M.de Rohan, "delegate of the democracy of England," has written a long letter to M.
Jules Favre informing him that a friend who has arrived from London (!) has brought news of an immense meeting which has been held in favour of France, and that this meeting represents the opinion of the whole of England.

M.Jules Favre, in his reply, expresses his sincere thanks "for the sentiments which have been so nobly expressed in the name of the English nation." The correspondence occupies two columns in the _Journal Officiel_.

M.de Rohan's residence in England is, I should imagine, in the vicinity of Tooley-street.
_October 3rd._ The _Journal Officiel_ contains a decree ordering the statue of Strasburg, on the Place de la Concorde, to be replaced by one in bronze.
No war news..
