We read in the Union: "The presentation of Louis
Napoleon as a candidate for the National Assembly
is a new danger for the republic; for the partisans of
the heir of the Bonapartes are resolved to bring him
forward also as a candidate foe the presidency. The
National Assembly, when it has admitted him as a
representative, cannot vote any exclusion against him.
Therefore we are not surprised at hearing it said that
the presents of Louis Napoleon in the Assembly. may
induce the government to propose that the election of
the president of the republic should be made by the
Assembly itstlf. Thus, the name of Napoleon once
again comes forth as fatal to the republican 'system.
We know not what chances of success Luis Napoleon
may have, but it appears to be evident that the
executive government intends to suppress them."
An envoy (M. Gelesco) has arrived fro n Wallachia
to solicit the support of France, in consequence of the
recent events which have taken place in that country,
and especially in consequence of the desigos imputed
to the Emperor Nicholas.
The proposition to augment the salary of the Pre-
sident of the Assembly, has been unfavourably
received in the Committee of Aectouuts, and has con-
sequently been withdrawn from the orders of the day
in the Assembly. Murmurs have been already heard
at the appearance of luxury and aristocratic preten-
sion which M. Meerut has manifested at the fetes
and balls which he has given, and the inconsistency of
such proceedings with republican frugality and sim-
plicity are severely animadverted on. It is presumed.
as no increase of salary will be allowed, and as each
displays, moreover, instead of attracting approbation,
bring down censure, they will be discontinued hence-
forward. *
Some difference', which bare come to light today,
among the moderate party, as to the candidates to be
supported for the vacant seats in the Assembly, hive
revived the hopes of the Red Republic, the partisans
of which affirm that all the chances are now
in their favour. They rely especially on the slicers
of Prince Louis Napoleon, whom they seem to have
adopted. It is hoped, however, that the .egitimist

by no means certain, however, that they will do so,
since many of them hink that the surest road to the
re-establishment of a monarchy is through the Re-
publique Rouge_.
The Msembl y today has been occupied chiefly
with the :question of the press, on which it seems
that the government, in a cabinet council had this
morning, has again changed Its opinion.
The project of the committee as now proposed,
stipulates that the grants of journals charged with
any offence may be brought directly before the cotot
of anises, and tried in forty-eight hours, and that on
conviction they may be liable to temporary 'warn-
rion. A minority in the committee, however, main-
tained that the public safety requited, that the present
arbitrary regime should be still au-tamed.
The Minister of Justice propos d to adopt the de-
cree, but with most important modifications ; be re-
quired that the power of suspension should be vested
in the chief of the executive, bat to be exerted under
his responsibility.
M. Victor Hugo and M. St. Gaudens demende I the
complete ornancapation of the press, and trthemently
condemned the present !system.
M. Jolts Fevre justified the government, but de-
manded that the cabinet should declare explicitly that
the sacrifice of tint liberty of the press was indispens-
able. He di mended that the thief of then executive
should, on this subject, adopt one or oth of two
courses : either to leave the control of the pores to the
ordinary tribunals, or frankly, end without hvisorisy,
to demand that its freedom should be suspend d.

M. Crespel de Latouche then demanded that the

proposition before its amendment in the coalmine..
This was rejected, by a majority of 457 to 278, and
the Assembly then passed to the debate on the con-
stitution.
