Napoleon III Declared to Have Had Genuine Regard for the Humbler of His Subjects. The friendly feeling of Napoleon III for the tollers Is dwelt upon by Agnes Carey In her "An Empress ln Exile," In the Century, magazine, and she gives tis her authorlly Empress Eu genie, wife of the last of the em perors. "Whatever his fallings to ward her hnd been," the nutlior says, "she professed a warm admiration of bis love of bard work, his pluck and his great kindness of heart and Miniiglilfiilness for every one. The emperor genuinely loved the poor and humble among his subjects, with no thought of policy. He wus too good and generous for his people's under stainllrig. Hnd he been tyrannical mid made use of them and trampled them down like some other sovereigns, they would hnve behaved better to ward him. she (Eugenie) snld. "Napoleon was a dreamer and spent much of his time to the serious thinking out of schemes for the bene fit of his people, and all mankind. His life's ambition wns to better their lot. He had great mngnetlsm, espe cially with the working clnsses. The empress charmed every stranger, but the emperor was really more personal ly and deeply loved by his entourage than was his consort."
