Mr. Labouchere, upon his part, also regarded this co lossal purchase as a thing apart, which did not at all belong to the range of business undertaken by the firm, and which bore upon its face the character of a private speculation of Mr. Parish. After Mr. Labouchere had propounded several questions, touch ing the negotiation conducted at Havana, he informed me that he had to bring the business to a conclusion with Count Mollien, and would introduce me to the latter. This he did. The Count, who... wore spectacles, eyed me over them while Mr. Labouchere was talking to him, and at length addressed me with some flatter ing words upon my success. A few days later, Mr. Labouchere informed me that he had concluded the affair with the Minister. " I have been obliged to make a bungling job of it, " were his words, "and share the profits; but you have not been forgotten, you shall get your portion. " Sure enough, I some weeks after wards received a notification from the Minister, that, in accord ance with the Imperial order, the sum of 45, 817 francs was at my disposal, as an acknowledgment of the service I had rendered the Public Treasury.
