PARIS, TUESDAY, 630 r m.
Public attention to day was exclusively taken up
with the schism that has broken out in the ranks of
the majority, and the bold stand taken by the presi-
dent of the republic on the sentiments expressed in
his letter to M. Edgar Ney. Louis Napoleon was
much annoyed, it seems, at the manner in which he
was alighted in M. Thiers' report. His displeasure
found vent in a letter to M. Odilon Blunt, in which
he informed that minister that the sentiments ex-
' pressed in his letter, and the policy it advised, were
those on which the Roman affairs must be solved, and
which alone aoreared to him compatible with the in-
terests, the honour, and the dignity of Prance.
A ministerial council met later. and it was
decided that the government would follow exclusively
the policy laid down in the letter of the presid-nt on
the affairs of Rome. Upon this vigorous resolution
being made known to M. Da Fallon:, he immediately
sett in his resignation, and it is said that General
Runtimes, did the same. It seems that when M
Barret was beard before the committee he admitted
that the letter of the president was not considered as
a diplomatic act, and the other ministers did the
same. This confirmed the committee in its resolution
not to mention the letter. Now, however, that the
ministry have adhered to the policy ocietained in it,
their position beanies eseeserbateeeteas. liwasemnp.
they will have an opportunity of explaining when
the debate comes on, which it is expected to do to-
morrow.
Efrotte, of course, were made by the divers parties
in the field to push matters on to an immediate solu-
tion, and the president was urged by his more imme-
diate advisers to publish in the Monitsur his letter to
M. Odilon Barret. Several influential members of
the majority were, however, unanimius in thinking,
and, among the rest, M. Leon Faucher advised, that
there should be no publication of the kind. The
Monitear this morning accordingly contained no letter
and no manifesto. Those of the majority who are not
personally attached to M. Thiers will endeavour now
to soften the shock given by the firm conduct of Louis
Napoleon. They will not, of course, vote in a
manner hostile to him. MM. Dufaure and °Non
Barret will, therefore, probably weather the storm.
The question naturally comes as to who will succeed
M. de Moon and Gourd Rulhitres. It is gene-
rally thought that M. Fresseau will be put into the
post of the former. Bone well-informed people,
however, think that the president will s.nd for M. de
Coroelles and General Lamoriciere.
Tee press this morning generally are very cautions
in giving the news of a breach between the ministry
and the majority. The Debate merely quotes the
Petrie, whilst the Constilutionnel, M. Thiers' organ,
is quite silent on the whole subject. The Dix De-
ceinbre, keeping up its tone of yesterday, says that
the president has done too much to conciliate the ma-
jority. As for the organs of the majority itself, th• y
are rabid, and the "(aural& Nationale has nought in
perspective but ruin and destruction. The conclu-
sion of that journal's attic!e is quite amusing :
" With the policy of the president's letter, it says,
the Pope cannot re-enter Rome; the Austriens ad-
vance, supported by the Russians. The English
betray us, and war is general."
The sitting of the Assembly to-day passed off with-
out any direct allusions to the subject that has
occupied all minds to-day. The subject of debate was
the dowry of the Duchess of Orleans.
Yesterday the general discussion had been closed,
and on the first article being brought forward, de-
claring that the minister of finance was authorised
to pay the 300,000 fr. demaeded, M. Mauguin pre-
sented an amendment to the following effect : "
Ne-
vertheless the payment cannot be effected, except on
the express demand of the Duchess of Orleans. Im-
mediately after the payment, the minister of finance
shall take measures to have himself reimbursed
out of the property cf the late king, Louis Philippe,
the real debtor." M. Maugain having asked that an
opportunity should be afforded him to support the
proposition thus made, the discussion was adjourned
to this day.
It was reopened by M. Pascal Daprat, who opposed
the motion, saying that all republicans would vote
against it ; because first of all it was not due, and
secisadly,l it would be a check to the republican'.
M. Victor Lefranc said he would vote for the dowry
beams he thought it due, bat he did not wish it to
be said that for that reason he was not a republican.
Bethought that the payment ot the dowry would be
but fulfilling engagements taken before! the country.
M. Michel de Bourges then got up, and comment-el
on some expre:sions made use of yesterday by M.
Lacrosse. This minister had said that not to pay
would be iniquitous. M. Michel de Bourgee con-
tended that the dowry was not due, and that those
who advocated its payment outraged the revolution
and the principles of equity and right. He had again
read the matrimonial convention that morning, and
be defied his honourable adversaries to cite a single
weed in it that interested France. He appealed to
their good faith : was there 'l,in the treaty of the
7th May a single feature of what usually constituted
international treaties? France had not been a
party to the contarct. If she war, it should be
respected. It was the father who stipulred, as
the head of the family, and not the nation.
He contracted a pommel and not a national en-
gagement. There existed no civil tie. M. Michel de
Bourges next examined the influence of revolutions
upon the engagements of nations. It was, he said.
subordinate to the nature of those revolutions, and he
could not be induced to believe that a republic was
bound to execute contracts concluded by its proscribed
royal oppressors. In conclusion he maintained that
the dowry was not a debt of the state ; that it was a
debt of the father of a family, whose property, amount-
ing to 160,000,000 f., was amply sufficient to pay
a dowry of 300,000 f. per annum. M. Michel, then,
turning to the right, said —" I hare told you, gentle-
men, everything I had to say. As to my friends above,"
pointing to the Montagne, ' I tell them that if we
were the sons of our fathers, no minister would have
dared to deposit such a project of law on this tri-
bune." (Loud applause cn the left and murmurs on
the right.)
M. Mauguio, who followed, also contended that the
marriage contract was not a law of the state; that it
had not been communicated to the Clambers, nor
even inserted in the Moniteur, and that there existed
me act to oblige France to pay the dowry of the
duchess. It was due from the property of the ex-
royal family. The right of the duchess, moreover, if
she ever possessed any, was destroyed by the re-
velation, which had deprived her of her title of
pima royal.
The general dimwits was then closed, and the
prettiest read the Ist Article of the bill as follows:
the mildew et deem b authorised in conslisuce with
Ome odds ef the dons ,et the 25th October,p 1848, to pay
is lisa Deviser el Oebese, during the yew 1849, tee dowry
411111,000 t , which bad bee* granted her by the 4th article
Odes law of the 7th of May, 1837.
Nobody having asked to speak on the article, and
upwards_ of 20 members having called for a division,
ballot took place, which gave the following result :
For the article .. .. 423
Against.it .. • .. .. 134
Majority in its fa.vour —239
The article was accordingly adopted.
The amendment of M. %again was afterwards
put to the vote, and rejected by a considerable ma-
jority.
The second article of the bill was next adopted,
without any opposition, and the entire bill was ulti-
mately voted by 421 to 176.
The Assembly next passed a law visiting with fine
and imprisonment whoever should use a past office
stamp that had already served, and then adjourned.
The Five par Cents. fell yesterday evening in the
Passage de l'Opera to 87.9, and this morning to 88.49.
P.S. It is affirmed at the latest sonat that N. de
Fallow has not resigned. If this be trus, it is, how,

The court rawaisembltd yesterday at half-past ten.
It was erowded. Oa entering, the accused saluted their
relatives and friends.
The president observed that. as the accused refuted to
answer, he, in the exercise of his discretionary power, would
order the Interrogatories of the ptinners by the mumbling
magistrates to be read.
The registrar than read the ioterrogatory of the tressed
Chipron. When he bad concluded,
The President said—lt results from this, that you, CM-
peon were a member of tl'er Committee of Twenty-Five,

Chiron 'remained seated, and took no notice, as if the
president had not spoken to him.
The procurzur-general then told the accused that he
would read the rpen found in his residence. He then read
a letter signed the Abbe Idowlouis, awl dated the 17th
April ;it concluded with these word., addressed to the re-
presentatives : " Put on your scarfs, descend to the street,
and tell the people that Insurrection is the most sated of
duties." He also read the following
" Every ci:isen whose candidateshiP for the national repre-
sentation !,
is brought bilore the Democratic Socialist Com-
mines of elections for the department of the Seine declares
to the people, by the fact of his candidateship, that he
adheres without restriction or reservation of any kind to the
five following propositions:
" 1. The republic is above all right cf maj Jetties. 2. If the
constitution be violated the representatives of the people
must give to the people the example of resistance by arms
(il !main armee). 3. The people are identified with
each other (song aolidaires) like indisituals. The use of
force by France against the Maly of nations is a crime, a
violation of the constitution. France owes amour to the
nationalities which combat tyranny ; she may sow grant it
immediataly.--4th The right of labour is the first of all
rights, it is the right of existence. The hardest of all tyran-
nies is the tyranny of capital. The national representation
can and is bound to follow up the abolition of this tyranny.
6. The repeal of the minis:dor the emigrants is a just, useful,
and possible innate.
"Everyeitisen, whose candidate ship for the national repro.

mittee of elections for the department of the Seine, declares

Ma.' 1. He deviate publicly and beforehand in the hands of the
committee from all candid'', eship in the department of the
Seine in the caveat of his not being placed in the number of
andidates proposed to the people by the committee.
" 2. If the candidate be the object of a double election for
the National Assembly, be consents that his right of option
shell be exercised by the committee."
The following is a letter addressed to the president of the
lls%ocratic Socialist Committee:
" Citizen President,—l beg of you to cause my resignation
as a member of the executive committee to be accepted by
the democratic socialist committe—lte, because after having
voted a principal enmgetieally supported, then abandoned
by Citizen Metier himself, this first decision hal been an-
nulled, and thus obstacles have been thrown in the way of
the democratic and socialist elections. 2ndly, because the
Cit:sen Mather has of his own suthority, and in spite of my
protest and that of other members of the executive committee
who bad not beamednuled by him, struck out the words
d main arstre, by the committee ; and because, not-
withstanding the violation of this vote, the committee paved
to the order of the day. If my resignation had not been re-
solved upon already several days ago, I should fine as a last
reason that concerning the abortive meeting of the soldiers. It
I withdraw from the executive committee, I do not remain
the less energetically devoted to the support of the list which
the committee stall adopt. Salut fraternel.

Theis papers were placed before Chipron to see if he re-
cognised them, but he refused to look at them and to answer
any question.
The interrogatory of Andre was next read, and the presi-
dent told him that he was accused of having belonged to the
Committee of Twenty--flue, of having taken port in the de-
monstration of 13th June. The form of the oath imposed on
socialist democrats was, the president added, found at his re-
sidence, as also the manuscript of the manifesto to the people
published in the democratic journals.
Andre said he had intimated that he woo prepared to give,
explanations, but, as the other accused had decided that they
would not do so until after the examination of witnesses, he
I must canto= to their decision, although it rendered his Nits-
, ation more difficult, so he had refrained from giving them to
the examining magistrate in order to present them to the
High Court. With respect to the papers presented, he made
no difficulty about recognising them.
The Procur.ar-General then proceeded to read documents
conuectid with the charge against Andre. Amongst them
was a manifesto found in manuscript at the residence of the
prisoner, and a form of oath which was taken by the er
vial of
democrats, which ran as follows: " I swear never to admit
any other form of government than that of the republic con-
stituted on true democratic principles. I swear death
and hatred to all kings. I swear that if ever a pretender,
whoever he may be, shall appear on the frontier, not to lay
down the musket of the soldier or the poinard of the avenger
of the people until the lest scion of the cursed race shall have
been exterminated. I swear to fight against and to destroy
tyranny under whatever form it may present itself. I swear,
at the risk of my fortune and of my life, to remain faithful to
the republican motto, ' Liberty. equality, and fraternity.' I
swear to devote myself to the abolition of monopoly and of
privilege. I swear to labour unceasing/1y for the realisation
of the principle of fraternity, to the amelioration of the ma-
terial happiness and the intellectual and moral development
of all my brethren, hitherto deprived of their rights es men
and as citizens. I swear to appear at the first signal for the
threats a democratic principles, if ever they should be
threatened. I swear, while respecting family rights and
property according to actual wants, to combat to ths death
the ideas and prejudices on which despotism has been
founded. I swear to labour with all my power and with
all my energy to propagate democratic principles, not
only In France but in the whole world. I swear to use
all my efforts to introduce energetic honest, and devoted

The interrogatory*, Lane*, editor .1 the Potpie, was
next read.
The president observed that the facts al eke interrogatory
might be summed up as follows:—That he formed part of
the meeting which took plain ea the mooning of the 11th
June in the ogees of the Dimocraila Peeffigese ; and, after-
wards, that which was held on the evening et the Name day,

The Procureur General said that he would here read to the
jury the placard which had bean stock up in different plaits,
and a fragment of which had been found in the of of Le
People. It was as follows:
" TO THE PIOPLE—TO THE lIATIONLL GUARD-- TO THE

"The constitution has been violated. The people are
thing in its defence.
" The Mountain hat its post. To arms ! To arms !

" Given at the Coneervateire des Arts et Modem, on the
13th June, at two o'clock."
(Signed by Ledru-Rollin, Landolphe, Heitman., end
othirs )
The placard we+ handed to the jury ; it was printed in large
letters.
The interrogatory of Bureau was then read, but that ac-
meetingsde no observation. It referred to the different
which had been in the offices of the Dimocratie
Paei fique.
The iaterrogatory of Paya having been reed, the president
said, that it appeared therefrom that the seethed was the
cotrespcndent of several democratic journal., to which he
had addressed articles, showing his knowledge of the events
that were in preparation.
Pays him asked that, if he had believed that he was to be
detained after the manner in which he had be en arrested, he
should not have replied at all. Having had to do with an
intelligent magistrate, he had believed that he would not
have been detained for articles published in different jour-
nals, which there was nothing to prove had been written
by him. Be had protested, and still protested, against the
trap into which he had fallen. He then entered, at length,
into ,:planation* of no general Wheat, and concluded by
saying that he would further explain himself at a subse-
quent period.
The IrroeureurD,nerrl observed, that as the accused bad
frequently referred to his arrest, be would state that he had
been as rested in virtue of a regular warrant.
Pays said that the procurear-general had evidently not
sinfully read the papers in the ease. He then entered into
explenations to show that he had teen arrested without
warrant, end that he was then told that he would he imme-
diately set at liberty as it was only required to confront him
with some one. Ili had, however, been kept in custody.
The Procureur-General observed **he had been muted ,
on a warrant of the prefect of police.
Pays denied this, and the president said the matter could
not be entered in* then.
Tke clerk next read the interrogatory of Sergeant Cow
missaire, and the president said it appeared that the accused

that he had formed part of the column which proceeded to

The Procaine-General maid he had written for it, bat the
jury would easily understand that he could not be in pages-
'ion of a document seized ab road by foreign authorities.
From the interrogatory of Sachet, which was nest read, it
appeared that that accused was en Jane 13 at the Conserva-
toire, that he afterwards went to the stair's of the 6th arron-
dissement, and, showing his representative's scarf, demanded
to see Colonel Faultier, in the name of LedrulLollin and
Oninard. His intention, it was added, was to induce Forel-
tier to march with his legion to the Conservatoire, where the
new government woo sitting.
At tl is stage the sitting was adjourned, and remained sus-
pended for some time. When the emut reassembled,
The President announced that another accused, named
Bellbird, had given himself up, and that he would be
interrogated.
The accused, having been brought in. declared his name to
be Alexis Maillard, his age thirty, a clerk by proration, and
his residence Paris.
The President asked if he accepted the case in the state in
which it was?
The Accused said he would do what his co-accused had
done. lie added that his advocate was M. Madier de

Idenitjau.
The President asked him if he had not been a member of
the Committee of 25?
The Accused unwired that, hung adopted the 'yam of
his cc-accused, he would reply after hearing the witnesses.
From his interrogatory, which was then read, it appeared
that he had been a member of the Committee of 2.5, and
that two papers had been forted at his lodgiege, one the
macuscript of the Adders' to the People, published on the
11th June, the other a letter from Boutin, announcing that
he had rested for the meeting of the 11th the riding-school of
Peltier.
The Procurear-General said, that among the objects seized
at the Coaaervatoirs was a pencil-r se, which the accused
Sachet had recognised as his.
Sachet stated that this wss a mistake ; the answer
by another scatted bad been erroneously ricribed to him. made
The Frocunur-Oeneral observed that a stick and a smell

minister bad violated the law. The minister answered
that he could not dismiss masters till he had persons
fit to take their places, and that for the present there
were no such persons to be had. After a rather ani-
mated discussion, the Chamber passed to the order of
the day, thus approving the minister's conduct.
By a royal decree of the 6th the bank of Genoa is
authorised to make a further issue of 100 fr. bank- I
notes, to the amount of one million of francs.
TUSCANY.—Tbe Legge of Turin of the 12th quotes
the following correspondence from Florence:—"A
profound mystery envelopes the grand duke's joinery
to Vienna. It is currently asserted, however, that les
has obtained from the emperor the limitation of the
Austrian troops in Tuscany to 10,000 men. The 09-
copation is to last ten years ; the number of troops is
to diminish from year to year, till it is reduced to
5.000, who will stay in Tuscany till the expiration of
the 10 years. The Tuscan finances are in a very bad
state ; Floreree alone owes four millions of francs, and
the municipality has signified to government that
unless the latter comes to its aid it will resign. The
oast of military supplies is excessive. The loan of 25
millions, said to be concluded, will be insufficient to
cover the actual arrears. Priests and absolutists are
gaining ground daily ; the laws of Peter Leopold,
which curtailed the privileges of the clergy, are be-
come a dead letter. Frays still continue to take place
between the people and the Austrian soldiers, and
are often Wended with bloodshed."
I ROMAN STATES.—From Roman correspondence
of the 7th, in the Statute, of Florence, we learn that
the rumour of the return of the Pope was gaining
ground, owing to the arrival of a courier from Portia.
It was also said that a commission of ;finances bad
been named, composed of Messrs. Gelb, Torlonis,
Commandant Feoli, and Chev. Bighetti end Miughi.
The Nationale of Turin of the 12th states that Gari-
baldi has left the island of Sautes Maddalena for
Gibraltar, whence be will eail for London. It is be-
lieved he intends proceeding to New York.
NAPLES.—The Debate publishes the following
from Naples, under date of October 9 : " Warrants
have been issued in all directions, and arrests have
been making for the last three weeks. Oat of the 120
members who composed the Elective Chamber, about
80 have left the kingdom, or have been detained, and
it is stated that orders have been given to arrest all
the ethers. M. Cagnazzi, a man ninety years of age,
who was president of the Assembly by seniority, is
concealing himself; M. Ruggiero, member of the
Chamber of Peers, who was named minister of finance
after the 15th of May, and who remained in that past
until August last, when the Furtunato cabinet Nate
into office, has been obliged to take to flight. M.
Conforte, minister of the interior of the progresista
cabinet of April 3, 1848, is the object of similar pro-
ceedings, and has fled, as well as M. Imbriania, a dis-
tinguished author, and also a member of that cabinet.
Less fortunate, and relying. on his innocence, M.
Scralaga, their colleague in the department of
public works, and an enlightened liberal, has been
hrown into prison, with the Marquis Dragonetti,
minister of foreign affairs in the same cabinet.
The president of that ministry, M. Carlo Troia,
is with great difficulty protected by his bro-
ther, a man of completely opposite opinions,
and who forms part of the present cabinet.
It must alio be observed that all the men of the
ultra party, and who are really dangerous for the
security of the country, have quitted the kingdom for
more than a year, The Prince de San Giacomo, de-
puty of the right, and chamberlain and personal
friend of the king, had been inscribed on the lists for
prosecution, and only owes his liberty to the direct in-
tervention of his majesty. The Cour Royale has just
been constituted into an exceptional tribunal. In pre-
sence of aU these facts, it is vainly asked what can be
the object of King Ferdinand in authorising, not the
ministers, for they have taken no part in the
affair, but the director of the police to adopt
such measures. Is it to put to flight enlightened and
moderate liberalism, and to suppress a constitution,
which, for the last 18 months, has been as if it never
existed ? Is it to strike terror into the public mind,
in order to render it afterwards more tensible of the
benefits of an amnesty ? Or is it the commencement'
of rigours which will end in sanguinary executions?
All these suppositions suggest themselves to the
minds of the people ; for my part, being an impartial
spectator of pasung events, I cannot find any plausible
)xplanation of a measure of which neither the cause
or the object can be seen."
