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 Prier, statesman and banker. A writer in " Blackwood's Magazine" (1838) calls him "the conqueror of the revolution of 1830.

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"). At his death, in 1832, Perier was fifty-fiv...
