PARIS, TORADAT. 5 P.M.
The president bas been closeted with his new
minivera for some hoots this morning, and has, it is
said, given them to understand that he is de-
tetm.n d both to reign and govern for the future, and
that in,m dice dismissal will be the result of any pre-
sumiru ius protest cy any of the ministers. It is slid
thit the president, in order to test the complacency of
the Cumber to is fullest extent, will at once pro-
pee* the abolition of the tax on drinks, and some
other =testate, of a similar nature, and that if they
shoel• presume to differ from him on those subject.,
he will at once make au appeal to the country, which
said country, in its present forlorn condition, would
probably re-elect him, by a majority certainly far
less considerable than that on which he rode to his
first position.
The disMssal of M. Ferdinand Barrot, and the sub-
stitution of M. Leon Faucher, a man of far su-
perior capabilities and character, is again much
talked of this seenioon ; and the Opinion
Publicise says: "The Prince de la Moscow&
is still sp..krn of for the portfolio of foreign
affairs in case M. de Itayneval should refuse to t•ke
It. One of the ministers under the Constituent As-
sembly contested the poesibility of this nomination,
saying that having placed at the time before the Pre-
sident of the Republic certain socialist intrigues of M.
do le Motcowa, he had received u answer 'Never
will I employ hat man: This reason appeared of
little consequence to his bearers, as, in the present
time, the wind and men's minds change often enough
in the course of a few months. The impossible of
yesterday is the possible of to-day." But I think it
`highly improbable that the prince would now venture
to thrust a person of this desairion into a post of
each prominence. Still there is every probability
that M. de Rayneval will indignantly refuse to enter
much a cabinet, and the portfolio will have to go
begging.
As wee expected, the Moniker of this day pub-
lishes a decree by the President of theßepublic, dated
the 4th, appointing General Baragusy d'Hilliers eons-
marider-in-chief of the army of expedition of the
Mediterranean, in place of M. d'Hautpoul, now
minister of war.

Yesterday the new council of ministers met for the
third time at the Palace of the Epee, under the pre-
sidentship of M. Louis Napoleon. The sitting lasted
from haP-past ten to two.
The Constifutionnel says "It is known that the
French government had given to oar fleet orders to
wend to the Levant. But, if we are well informed,
the cmciliatory spirit of all the cabinets on this ques-
tion hes led to such a sheathe' that our fleet is on
the point of receiving another destination."
M. Biness, the minister of public works, yesterday
received the epeplost;es of his department and the chefs
do service of the Poets et Chunks and Mines. The
minister remir.ded them of the words of the President
of thr Re public, " It is necessary to substitute acts fur
wards." "It is necessary," said the minister, " that
Istneeketh business should be despatched more
promptly, and that the administrative centralisation,
against which such objections have been raised in
consequence of the delay which takes place in the
transaction of basin's, should no killer be the sub-
ject of complaint, and for that reason it is necessary
that every one shall perform his duties with the
utmost possible devotednes4."
The committee of the budget has adjourned all de-
liberation relative to financial measures until it has
received explanations from the new minister concern-
ing the ways and means which he intends ng
to make up the deficiency of the tressuryinrelan-
while the committee is ocarpied with a new exami-
tion of the budget of expenses.
The proceedings in the Chamber this afternoon
have been uninteresting, and confined to matters of a
local interest.
