introduction

THREE:He was deeply in love with Mme. d��Harvelay, whose husband was the banker and intimate friend of M. de Vergennes, then Foreign Minister. Mme. d��Harvelay, who returned his passion and carried on a secret liaison with him, used her influence with her husband to induce M. de Vergennes to push him on. The husband, who was fascinated by Calonne and did not know or suspect what was going on, was persuaded by his wife one day to write a confidential letter to Vergennes on the subject of the general alarm then beginning to be felt about the disastrous state of the finances and the peril threatening the Monarchy itself, in which he declared Calonne to be the only man who could save the situation. The Court was then at Fontainebleau, and it was contrived that this letter should be shown to the King in the evening, after he had retired to supper with his family.

THREE:��You astonish me!�� said the Baronne, when the affair was explained to her; ��for at St. Petersburg we were told about it by one of your countrymen, M. L��, who said he knew you very well, and was present at the supper.��AS M. Ars��ne Houssaye truly remarks, the French Revolution was not made by the people. They imagine that they made it, but the real authors were Voltaire, Condorcet, Chamfort, the two Mirabeau, La Fayette and his friends, Necker, Talleyrand, Barras, Saint-Just, &c., nearly all gentlemen, mostly nobles; by Philippe-��galit��, Duke of Orl��ans and prince of the blood; by Louis XVI. himself.

FORE:��Ah! Madame l��Etiquette,�� cried Marie Antoinette, laughing, ��God made patience the virtue of kings.��There was at Versailles a certain Laboull��, coiffeur to Louis XV., and to Marie Antoinette when the Dauphine. He invented a perfume which he called eau Antoinette, and which was so much in vogue that he opened a perfume shop at Versailles, which was patronised by Louis XVI. and Marie Antoinette when they came to the throne. He married, and the Queen was very kind to his wife, whom she used to employ in her various charities; and was devoted to her.

THREE:Weeks passed away and still no one came from the Duc d��Orl��ans; Mme. de Genlis wrote several times, and he always begged her to wait a few days longer.
