After taking a cup of chocolate, I made my way to Me Célin's, where I found everyone in good health... Finally I went to the President's, who is doing very well but was at the hearing.... I didn't leave the Faubourg Saint-Germain today... It is said that Madame de Serre is very ill and that her illness immediately followed the attack of General DONNADIEU (who died on June 18, 1849)... In addition, it is said that little will be done this year in the House, and that the major part of the Budget will be pawed over in the meantime. It is said that the old Ministry and even the new ministers no longer agree with the ultras... The Affaire des Journées de Juin (1848) is over, 9 have been acquitted. Only Fayole and Adam were fined and placed under surveillance. It seems that the August Conspiracy case has been adjourned... Farewell my good and tender friend..."
