FROM OUR PARIS CORRESPONDENT
Paris January 5 1S52.
France hnjtisl pronounced by the voices
tif seven and n halt millions of its adult men
thit it desires for legislator and ruler the
Prince Tenuis Nvrot.Eo.- Roxm-aute. The
Uitory of iho world cannot sjiow so remark-
able: an instancy of a great people solemnly
ucchiring ils own incompetence to self-gov
ernment and invoking a master. No argu-
ment no sophistry no perhaps and nuts and
if can put away ormaterially invalidate the
great fact that hy the choice of a latn m:i
joiity of its adult men France has accepted
in full and fair view of all the past in full
view ton of the future the rule almost un
limited in degree of mm of the prince pre-
tenders to the crown. Our judgment of the
means hy which the successful candidate for
absolute power has compassed his ends and
induced this overwhelming popular expression
in his favor may he unaltered; impartial con-
temporaries and history will judge them se-
veielv; yet our duty and that of all foreign
nations is now plain. France has pardoned
those means and accepted their results.
The whole world must acknowledge Louis
Nnpolcnn Bonaparte as the legitimate chief
of a friendly nation without alluding except
as they may affect our appreciation of him as
a man" to the various arts and enforcements
efficacious donlitless to some extent by
which ho attained this eminent station.
France has never possessed a ruler of more
legitimate power than Louis Napoleon at this
moment.
The Te Dcum celebrated at Xolrc Dame
last Thursday was the most magnificent affair
of the sort that has been witnessed in Paris
since the fall of the Empire of which it was
intended as was evident Ironi all the arrange-
ments to recall the remembrance. I enclose
the following long account of the ceremo
ny
The ceremony ns ordered by the Presi-
drnt nl the Republic ot returning thanks to
llenvcn for the success of his late election
was celebrated yesterday at the Cathedral of
Notre Dame with mol imposing magniiiccnce.
The weather was not by any means propitious
for the occasion as from a sharp frost which
had taken place the cold was exceedingly
severe and thick fog during the whole day
but particular in the morning enveloped Pa-
ris. Notwithstanding this drawback a con-
stfcrnblc number of persons had already col-
lected in tho neighborhood of the cathedral
as early as nine o'clock although none were
permitted to approach the building itself un-
less provided with a ticket of admission.
Immediately in Iront of the sacred edifice
workmen were to be seen completing the
preparations for the external ornamentation.
Some were laying down the painted basem*nts
of the gigantic flag-staffs from which were
floating vast streamers of tn-colored silk; oth-
ers were covering the ground with sand to
prevent accidents from the slippery state of
tho pavement; and others again were remo-
ving from covered wagons stools benches
nnofotlier articles required for the accommo-
dation within all was bustle.butwilhout con-
fusion. The appearance of the open spr.ee in front
of the cathedral or parvis. as it is technical-
lv designated was exceedingly striking.
Along the street in front tri-colorcd Hags
were streaming from lofty masts; further
down on the open space itself more elevated
flag-staffs bore still longer streamers ; whilst
close to the entrance the tri-colorcd Hags
were intermingled with others of green silk
inL-lnrl nvnr with silver stars green be-
cprt
ng the color of Prince Louis Napoleon as it
md been formerly of the Emperor his uncle.
i
had
Snrinwinn' from the fretwork of the old cathe
dral itself and immediately over the grand
entrance was stretched forth a huge velarium
of crimson velvet ornamented with gold em-
broidery under which th President of the
Republic was to alight from his carriage on
his arrival.
At each side of this immense awning float-
ed green flags bearing the letters L. N. with-
in a laurel wreath Beyond them at each
aide trophies were erected with a shield ia
the centre also bearing the same initials the
whole surmounted by a faisccau of triicolor-
ed flags artistically arranged; still further on
at each corner of the front of the building
were to be seen lofty hangings of crimson
velvet to match the canopy in the centre.--In
tho recess of the grand portal were sus-
pended pieces of ancient tapestry admirably
executed representing subjects chosen from
the sacred scriptures. As these works of
art bore in their wrought bordering the cross
and arms of the See of Paris namely the
Virgin overcoming the Hydra of Doubt and
Anarchy it is to be presumed that thoy ali
belong to the cathedral itself. The facade
above the grand portal wa3 also hung with
draperies of crimson velvet and gold tho
whole bcinn profusely sprinkled over with
golden stars; over the largo rose-window of
the centre was to oe seen in gigantic cnar-
acters the number "7500000" to signify
the amount of support which France has just
given to Louis Napoleon; and on each side
a little bcIowwere placed painted panals rep-
resenting on the right Charlemagne and St.
Louis and on the left Louis XIV. and Napo
leon. A great number of f mailer flags rep-
resenting the colors of the Departments al
so floated from various parts of the Place be-
low. Half-past nine had been appointed as tho
hour for opening the doors to the public and
it was ordered hat the ministers the diplo
matic corps the marshals and the officers of
the stair should enter by tlie grand portal in
the centre whilst the two lesser entrances at
the sides should be appropriated to the pub
lie. The central entrance iu conformity
with this arrangement was duly thrown open
al the appointed hour but the persons who
arrived withjtickets for the Iaternal doors had
to wait upwards of half an hour in the midst
of a bitter frost and a fog so denso that it
would not have disgraced the good city of
London on one of her worst days of Novem-
ber exhalation. At last however tho side
doors turned slowly on their hinges to admit
the impatient crowd.and the slight which then
presented itself served to dissipate the slight
discontent which the unexpected penance at
the door outside had generated in the minds
of those kept waiting. The first thing which
struck every spectator on entering was the
extraordinary blaze of light that met the eye
from every point. Nothing in lact could be
more bnlliantly beautiful than the manner in
which the old cathedral was lighted up ev-
ery lino of the admirable tracery of ils archi-
tecture being distinctly visible as well as the
minutest details of the temporary adornment
ndoptcd for the occasion. Afler the specta-.
tor had time to recover from the first move
ment of surprise at the unexpected scene be-
fore him ha could perceive in descending
from his general survey to -an 'examination of
the particulars that the whole of the pillars-
f the centre aisle ware encircled with crim-
son velvet terminated by a binding of gold
embroidery immediately below iho capitals:
between every two pillars was suspended a
beautiful chandelier of cut glass from iho
centre of each arch; down tho contrn nislo
three ranges of chandeliers of infinitely lar-
ger size though not of more beautiful form
or more exquisite proportion hung from the
fretted roof by ropes of grpnt thickness but
which apnoared above scarcely thicker than
whipcord so great was tho distance from the
spectator to the points winch they descended
from. There were twenty-seven in all of
these chandeliers the nine forming the cen-
tral line being of somen hat larger size thnti
the eighteen lateral ono and not being al-
lowed to descend altogether so low ns the
others prevented the monotony which would
otherwise have weakened the effect. The
part of the sacred edifice which the eye of the
spectator could freely wander over termina
ted at the iron railing wlucn separates ine
choir from the rest of the centre aisle. At
that point n lofty screen was erected effec-
tually cutting oir one part of the church from
the rest so that of the four parts of the Greek
cross which constitute the church the eas-
tern one bore no ostensible part in the cere-
mony. It was however most usefully occu-
pied as in it wcro placed the orchestra and
singers who were to perform the pieces of
music appointed for the day. Rut though the
screen in question thus rendered the choir
completely isolated from the crowd it only
did so below; for above over tho screen the
blaze of light from innumerable wax tapers
almost caused the eye to ache when it first
sent its gaze in their direction. After a lime
however this extreme brilliancy t.vlcd awny
for as the day advanced the fog entered the
cathedral and to a certain extent clouded the
immense glare of light which at first appear-
ed so remarkable In nddttion to all these
lights smaller chandeliers were to he seen
above at the back of the tribunes which were
erected for the public high up between the
pillars; and at the same height gilt bronze
J SCOnccs were affixed to each side of the pil
lars: nil addina to the general illumination.
In the aisle below nlso lofty candelabra of
gilt bronze were placed containing each n-
bout two dozen of branches. The whole
number of wax-light employed in the vari-
ous parts of the edifice was upwards of D3-
000. The manner in which the sacred buil-
ding was arranged lor the ceremony was
alike striking and convenient. The cen-
tre aisle was alone used on the occasion
the side aisles being merely employed a
passages to the tribunes. Those tribunes
were erected in the centre aisle up to the
pillars already described as covered with
crimson velvet: the tribunes on the right
were reserved for the public in general
and those on the left for the mayors delc-
rates of the departments the consuls and
a portion of the public functionaries.
The transepts were converted into im-
mense amphitheatres of seats (il such a
term can be applied) the right being ap
propriated to the bar the diplomatic body
the institute the municipal bodies of the
banlieue the conseils of prud'hommes.and
the left to the ministers the prelect of the
Seine the prefect of police.and their fmic
tionaries the academic body the juges de
paix.&c The lower part of the central
aisle was exclusively occupied by the offi-
cers of the staff and those from the differ-
ent regiments of Paris and its vicinity to
whom invitations had been sent to attend.
This portion of the spectators at last be-
came so numerous and predominant that
it was impossible not to conceive the idea
that some great military spectacle was
about to be presented
In front of the screen before the choir
was erected the altar covered with white
brocade embroidered with gold. At some
distance from it but in advance of all oth-
er seats was placed the President's chair
having in front of it a pric dieu covered
with a cushion of crimson velvet both of
a very simple character. Behind him
were scats for the Marshals of France and
for the officers of the President's house
hold. The clergy were assigned seats on
the right just below the benches appro
priated to the members of the Court of
Cassation and ot the other law courts.
The whole of the centre aisle was thickly
carpeted and that space in Iront of the.
altar was covered over with one which
had issued from the Gobelins manufacto-
ry and was alike remarkable for its im-
niciisa size and its wonderful workman-
ship. Abouthalf-past ten the various tribunes
were nearly all filled; and at eleven eve-
ry place was occupied. The cold was at
this period so severe thar.notwithstanding
the immense amount of heat which the
vast number of lights must have emitted
most persons were heard to complain that
their feet were bcnumbled. The number
of ladies present was not by any means
great decidedly much less than the fair-
er portion of the creation are generally
seen at public spectacles in France.
One of the peculiarities of the decora-
tion was the prevalence of the cipher L.
N. in ever' part of the cathedral. It was
to be seen on every pillar; on the front of
the tribunes above; and on a series of cir-
cular compartments or shields to be seen
at each side down the centre aisle; it was
also to be perceived in immense charac-
ters on the highest part of the immense
canopy of crimson velvet which surmoun-
ted the altar and advanced over part of
the space between the transepts. Every
where the initials of Louis Napoleon met
the eye.
In speaking of the altar we omitted to
say that over it but under the canopy just
mentioned a lofty shrine was erected in
the Byzantine style overshadowing and
as it were protecting what the altar sup-
ported namely a piece of the true cross
contained in a silver gilt pix of exquisite
workmanship. The various ornaments of
the altar were all of silver gilt and must
have been of great value both intrinsical-
ly and as works of art; the candlesticks
(fourteen in number and all from four to
five feet high) were not only of silverbut
most admirably executed.
About a quarter past eleven o'clock the
Ministers arrived and at once took their
places on the left; and immediately after
a considerable number of general officers
were seen advancing to their places.
Amongst the first was General de lallan-
ciere an old cavalry officer of the Empe
ror in whose service he lost his left arm;
then Generals Lebreton Cornemusc.Car-
relet Levasacur D'ulac.Forct and a crowd
of others; also Admirals Roussin and Mac-
Jiau entered about this time. '.Much in
forest was excited bv the :ippcainnee of
Marshals Excelmans and Jerome Bona
parte the ex-King of WesMihaUn who en
tered together the uncle of the President
following his less aged fellow-soldier.
They both took their seats eldsc behind
the President's chair of Slate. Near them
were afterwards to tie seen Marshals
lleille Vaillanl and Ilarispe.
A little later bean to arrive the Am-
bassadors of the foreign Powers. They
came as was befitting -so imposing a ccr-
ctnonv. in grand official costume. One of
the latent of thi"-e liiuh functionaries who
arrived was the Marquis l Normuniiy
and his appearance eau-ed a certain -cn-sation
in consequence of one of the gen-
tlemen in his suite wearing a e . rlet iint-
lonn. At an earlier pint of the da an-
other officer had entered ilro-ed in a sim
ilar manner. The corps diploniatifjuc was
exceedingly numerous and nniongsf them
was Mr. Rive the Minister of the Repub-
lic of the United .States of America. The
Pope's Nuncio was also present in full
sacerdotal dress.
It was very nearly twelve o'clock when
the Archbi.shop of Paris and the elergv
moved down the aisle to receive the Pres-
ident of the Republic. Only one bi.-hop
was present duringthe day with t lip Arch-
bishop nunelv the Bishop of St. Flour;
the rest of the sacerdotal corteire In ing
composed of canons and cures of the Iio-ce-e
of Paris all attired in splendid can-
onicals. Just as the body arrived :iT the
grand entrance the drums beat to arms
the bourdon or great bell of A'otrc Dame
pealed forth and Louis Xapoleon de-ctli
del from his cirriae.
The Pre-ident had loft the Elysee at
half past eleven in a handsome carriage
drawn by two hor.-c- Two servants sat
on the box and two footmen stood behind
in the Napoleon livery of green and gold.
This carriage was preceded by a company
of guides two squadrons of lancers and a
squadron of mounted republican guaid
and followed by a party of the 7th lancers.
The Presidents orderly officers and a nu-
merous suite accompanied the carriage.-
The Prince was greeted as he passed a-
long with great applause not only by the
crowd who lined the way but by the
troops who were drawn up on each side
of the way all along the quays to Notre
Dame.
Tiie President on alighting from his
carriage was received by the Archbishop
who tendered to him the holv relic already
alluded to the mor.-el of the true cross to
kiss next presented to him the holy water
and then led back the pioeesion to the
altar. The Prince followed iminediateh
behind the clergyh.vinir on his riirht hand
General de St. Ainaud. the MmNrcr of
War and on his left General Mamma.
Commander-in-Chief of the army of Paris.
The Pre.-ident. the moment he began to
pass up the aisle was received with loud
shouts of '"Vive Napoleon!" and the same
shouts greeted him all the wav as he au-
vanced. Louis Napoleon acknowledged
the reception by slightly bowins: to each
Mile lie looked in excellent health and
on this oeeaMon hail departed from the
attire in which he has hitherto appeared
at public ceremonies hauig put off the
uniform of the National Guard and as-
sumed that of a general in tin- armv but
still wearing his crachnt of the Legion of
Honor and the red ribbon as Grand Cor-
don of that Order. The s-prctators rose
fiicn lie appeared with his plendid staff
anil stood uncovered military and all. du-
ring his passage from the grand entrance
to the chair of state. It may be well as
a faithful historian to state that some
cries of "Vive l'Empercur!"' accompanied
the otherwise universal one of ''Vive Na-
poleon!" The Prince at once proceeded to his
scat the organ the orchestra and the
singers thundering forth at the moment
the Oitind ATarch of Lesuerr. composed
of the Emperors coronation. Next came
the Vh'iit and the Te Dcum. and the Urbs
Acfln ofthe same compo-er. Afterwards
were executed the Smiclus compost d by
M. Adam the Doniinus libirtnit no? of
the mass of the Holy Ghost of LeMiotir
and the Dominc salvum fac nostrum iV
polioncm and all in most admirable style.
The Archbishop then gave the benedic-
tion and the ceremony terminated hav-
ing lasted exactly one hour. The clergy
then as before led the way. and the
Prince departed as he had entered sup-
ported on each side as before by General
Magnan and General de St. Arnand. As
he departed the orchestra played a march
the bourdon again boomed forth the can-
non of the Invalides thundered fiom their
iron throats and lastly the vast multitude
in the cathedral raised the shout '"Vive
Napoleon!"' so loud and so sustained that
no one who heard it vill easily efface the
sound from his memory.
The Prince then entered his carriage
and taking the rue d'ArcoIe. the quai Na-
poleon the pout St. Michel and thequais
on the right bank of the Seine proceeded
to the Tuileries. The troops still lined
the whole way on both sides and the re-
ception given to him outride was again
just as warm as that which had greeted
him on luscomimr. On the place due Car-
rousal in particular the reception given
by the crowd was of the most enthusiastic
kind the acclamations being of the loud-
est description.

Will effectually retain and radically cure every

jections found in every other Tius3. It is also en
tirely mtiuicnl irom any heretolore in use both in
ioim ana pnncipio oi action ana is in accordance
with ihe principles of Surgery and Anatomy. The
prcssnro is more natural being comparatively light
iu bad ruptures and can be regulated and brought
to bear direetly over tho Hernia openings thcieby
affording security at all times even under tho most
violent cxulcise. By its uj when fitted by tbe
proprietor or a skilful Surgeon tho wearer is pla-
ced beyond the danger of Strangulation or any
other painful or dangerous symptoms which is not
unfrequcnt in Ihe use of other Trusses. It is a very
common practice for neisons afflicted with Hernia
lo select a Truss and apply it to themselves. It is
a bad and dangerous practice which cannot bo seen
only by those who understand Anatomy and are
familiar with the nature of Ruptures. Let it bo re
membered that the best Trus3 may be injurious if
it does not suit the form of Rupture applied to and
is not properly filled. Therefote I have concluded
to form NO AGENCIES but to sell and apply
iho Truss ONLY at my Offico
