Excerpt from book: ROUTE III. Distance 6£ Miles. Starting from the Place de la Madeleine, the Rue Duphot leads to the Rue Cambon-No. 49 was the residence of Casimir P£rier, statesman and banker. A writer in " Blackwood's Magazine" (1838) calls him "the conqueror of the revolution of 1830. He found it arbitrary, he made it legal; he found it warlike, he made it pacific; he found it destructive, he made it conservative; he found it tumultuous and anarchist, he reduced it to order and obedience." From the same source we take the following graphic description of his person and disposition: " Casimir Perier was very tall and well-made. His face was manly and regular, and there was a penetration and finesse in his features which often contrasted well with his imposing energy. His air, his manner, were prompt, and even imperious, and he would say, smiling, when speaking of the efforts made by his political opponents to compel him to yield, ' Why expect me to give up the game with the cards that I hold? '. He was by no means a pleasant companion or adapted to the politeness or courtesies of life. Rigorous towards others and severe towards himself, though he loved few, he hated none He had, however, some tenderly attached friends; in his family he was gay in his conversation and lively in his sallies." So far the English writer. Guizot says: " His physiognomy, his gait, his attitude, his look, his accents-everything in hispersonal attributes impressed this conviction [' that he was always seriously in earnest.'] . In private conversation he listened coldly, argued little, and nearly always evinced himself determined beforehand. In the tribune he was not often either eloquent or dexterous; but ironically effective and powerful" ("Memoirs").
