Thanks all - VERY much appreciated. (Must admit, it was the "In Our Time" Podcast that got me thinking).

in this last pict the caption says "Machine Gun Company"????  maybe Mitrailleuses?..that's very strange

Italwars,
the "armeé des Vosges" (commanded by Garibaldi) among other formations had a battery of machine guns volunteers (1 batterie de mitrailleuses de volontaires).

No they were not able.
The mitrailleuses were a military secret to the point that the funds for the development came from the emperor's personal finances and not those of the ministry.
The main consequence was that no one (not even regular) was trained in advance.
