fending Paris, with a dying soldier beside him, in reference to
the fact that the marshal distinguished himself in the defence of
the capital in 1814.

Opposite the monument of Moncey the Avenue de Clichy ascends to
the N., and farther on bends to the left, while the Avenue de St. Ouen
turns a little to the right. To the left of the latter is the little Square
des Epinettes (Pl B. 16). with monuments to Marie Deraismes (d. 1828-941, who
championed the emancipation of women, by E. Barrias, and to Jean Leclaire
(1801-72), by Dalou and Formigé. Leclaire, a large manufacturer of paints,
was the lirst to introduce the profit-sharing system with his workmen, in
the interest of wh se health he eliminated the poisonous white lead from his
preparations and substituted zinc-white. —Clichy [39,521 inhab.) and St. Ouen
(35,436 inhab.jare uninteresting. The chateau of St. Ouen, where Louis XVIII.
signed his famous declaration of 2nd May, 1814, no longer exists, being
replaced by a modern pavilion, and the park is now a Racecourse.

A little bejond the Place de Clichy, to the left of the Rue de Clichy,
is the Square Vintimille (Pl. B, 17), with a" bronze Statue of Berlioz (1803-1869),
by Alf. Lenoir.

The outer boulevards (Boulevards des Batignolles and de Courcelles)
lead on to the W. to (1/2; M.) the Pare Monceau (p. 217) and (1 M.) the
Arc de Triomphe de l'Etoile (p. 75).

In the Boulevard des Batignolles stands the College Chaptal, a handsome
building in stone and coloured bricks, erected in 1866-72 by Train.

9. Western Quarters, to the N. of the Champs-Elysées.

Stations of the Métropolitain: Place de l'Etoile (Pl. B, 12; 7) and Parc
Monceau (Boul. de Courcelles; Pl. B, 15); see Appendix p. 37.

The Boulevard Haussmann (Pl. B. 18, 15 ; II), the prolongation
of which on the E.. from the Rue Taitbout to the Rue Drouot (about
300 yds.), will eventually connect it with the Grands Boulevards, is
one of the imposing modern thoroughfares of Paris. In conjunction
with the Avenue de Friedland (p. 76), by which it is continued to the
(13/4 M) Arc de Triomphe de l'Etoile, it forms a noble street about
2 M. in length, and is the most direct route from the north-central
part of the city to the Bois de Boulogne. It owes its name to Baron
Haussmann (p. xxvii).

The Chapelle Expiatoire, in a square on the right,
by the Rue Pasquier, was erected in 1820-26, from designs by Percier
and Fontaine, to the memory of Louis XVI. and Marie Antoinette,
on the site of the old cemetery of the Madeleine, where their re-
mains lay from 1793 to 1815, when they were removed to the royal
vault at St. Denis. The Swiss guards massacred on August 10th were
also buried there.

The chapel, which it is proposed to pull down and which is now closed
to the public, contains two groups in marble. That on the right, by
Bosio. represents Louis XVI. and an angel who addresses him with the
words, 'Fils de St. Louis, montez ou ciel!' Below is inscribed the king's
will. The group on the left, by Cortot. represents the Queen supported
by Religion, a figure which bears the features of Madame Elizabeth, the
king's sister, who was guillotined on 12tb May, 1794. Inscribed on the
monument is the last letter addressed by the queen to her sister-in-law
(comp. p. 178). — Over the portal is an allegorical relief by Lemaire, re-
ferring to the removal of the ashes to St. Denis.
