the sittillg of the Awesibly opined to-day amid
all the manifestations of excitement *seal on great
debates. The tribunes were crammed. All the
ministers appeared on their benches. The debate was
not resumed befonsa quarter to three.
Col. Vandrey first ascended the tribune, and de-
dared that the assertions of M. de Luteyrie were
false and calumnious, as far as he was concerned.

M. Lemulier said that the document read by 1L de
Lasteyrie touching the organisrion of the society of
the, Din-Deceenbre had never emanated from that
bod
Nl..Plandin, member of the minority of the com-
mittee, attacked the report. He maintained that the
President had made proper nye of a cinetitntional
right in dismissing Genzral Chargsrnier; and at-
tacked the chiefs of the majority for their visits to
Claremont and Wiesbaden.

M. Leo de Lablrde and M. Thiers demanded to
'peak. The latter insisted on answering immediately,
amid cries of "Order;" "1..-,t the speaker in the
tribune go on;" "Hinder him." M. Plandin, resuming,
remarked the presence of three delegatrs from the
court of Wisbeden in the Committee of Permanence

( M d. Berryer, Leo de Laborde, and Larochejacquelin).
He justilltd the suppres,ion of the command of the
aamy of Paris, citing the words of General Cavaignac,
and wondering the measure had not been taken
long before. Did they want a mayor of the
palace ? It would be a bad inauguration of the
republic to instal a faineant President. The successes
even obtained by the cabinet, owing to the interven-
tion of General Changarnier, were so humiliating as
to resemble checks rather than successes. He ended
with condemning the resolution of the committee.
M. Berryer a'nended the tribune.
M. Thiess demanded to speak; on which M. Ber-
ryer descended, and both members quitted the
Assembly together. The sitting thereupon was
suspended. . . .

-
After some time M. Berryer occupied the tribune.
He should explain himself on his conduct in par-
ticular, and state the motives which determiced him
to vote against the government. He reminded
the house of the *mimic:in caused in the
Assembly under the former government, by
the dismissal of a chef de ,n (M. Drouyn de
Lhuys). Ile regarded the dismissal of Gen. Chan-
gamier as a change of policy, which might be attended
with the most fatal results. He saw great danger in
the rupture of the majority, to whose union the return
of prosperity had been owing. lie considered the
poeltion of the country as a troosition, and the me,-
sage itself spoke of it in this light. There were in
that Chamber a c ‘nsiderable number of royalists, and
he was • royalist himself. (Long interruption.)
He had been monarchist during 5E3 years; nor had
he changed in assuming the mandate of a representa-
tive. Nevertheless he had rallied with all his strength
to the majority in order t save the country. He
demanded that the ties of the majority should now be
strengthened by a common reso!ntion. (Berryer's ,
speech was thought ineffective, and below the mark.)
M. Lamartine now amended the tribune. He de-
clared that he would stand by the flag of the republic.
Having blamed the committee for reviving the dis-
putes of the recess, after a message which was as
by the most thorough-goirg republicans, M. de
Lamartine was met by an emphatic " No," from M.
Charras. M. Cnarras, having been called to order,
was supported by the Mountain es masse, whom M.
Dopin called collectively to order. " Give your names
(he said) to the Monileur, and the country will judge
you." M. Lamartine continued his panegyric of the
republic, and maintaiaed that it was the partisans of
M. de Itemusat's proposition who did their best to
crush the parliamentary system.
M. Lamartine was left speaking when our report
closed.

The debate would be adjourned to to-morrow. The
most important speech of the dry seemed to be M.
Flendin'e.

Four new orders of the day have been distributed ;
one, by M. Sainte Dense, is a simple declaration of
want of confidence; the o'her, by M. Adelswaerd,
would p-onJucce a new act of adhesion to the
republic ; a third confines itself to the expression of
regret for General Cnaogarnier ; the fourth is an
accusation against the President and the ministry.
The ministry are exerting themselves to rally their
partisans._

tion of the electorate el Hesse by the Bavarian troops
is about auddealy td take place. An order to this
effect was issyesterday by Prince Thurn and

The following is at abstract of the Saxon Memo-
randum presented to the commission on trade, naviga-
tion, Sce., referred to in yesterday's Express:
The necessity of this inquiry will be evident when one
reflecx on the real cause of the prevailing discontent with
the einstitutios of the confederation—the discontent not
merely of doctrinists, republicans, and social demncrats, but
of a crest part of the people. It has often and justly been
said, that the retrograde chareeter of the confederation con-
sists leis in its forms than in its deficiencies with reference to
material interests. If it be asked in what these deficienus
tontist, every one will answer g lly herein; that during
se long a series of years there has been on common lege•la-
tion on commercial matters, in poet-office and railway repute.
Sons, with respect to corn, weights, and measures dm., that
transit by land and by water has been impeded by many heavy
haulms, and that the foreign inter's'. of Germany have been
loft almost totally without protection. • • • It has
been before shown that the threatened levelling system of
the National Assembly has provoked the opposition of many
particular interests—the opposition between agriculture and
industry, between half and complete maoufactorles, between
combination vied free labour. But at this moment we should
give occasion to new divisions if we remained passive, and
there are many facilities at present for procuring union.
The assembly of the representatives of all the German
governments is one of these. Then there are, is:,
the happy success of the post and telegraph admi-
nistration; dod, the communication by railway; 3rd,
the Ulundi% tariff, that has so materially favoured
commerce on the Mine an 1 on the Elbe; end finally and
chiefly the manifest disposition of the three priocipal popu-
lations to approximate to each other, a disposition psi*
openly expreesed, and partly to be int reed from the grimmer.
gist relations to each other. • • • This great German
Zollverein, alter an existence of 17 years, is on the eve of 're-
newal of its contracx, and also of • greater or less retinal
reorganisation At best it is not to be expected that on
this occasion again its action will be prolonged without
alteration. Nevertheless, this alteration will not spring from
• general discontent at its working, and far less will it aim
at its dissolu'ion. • • • • Toe Saxon government
holds the mast favourable position for a disinterested
cousideratioa cf We subject. No conatry would
feel more ly than Saxony the consequences of any false
steps that may be taken with respect to it. The antagonism
between agriculture and manufactures and factory interests,
widely separated from each other, which t rest separately on
the coast leads of South Germany, exist together on a email
theatre in Saxony. The same may be said touching com-
mercial and factory interests, the first of which is so coo-
spicuously represented by the side of the other is Leipsie.
• • • Waco we look to Austria, we shall tidd the
government there inclined to an approximation; nay,
more—to a (lidded adoption of our Z illverein. Aid in
the north attempts have been made lately to intro-
duce changes which, had they succeeded, would have
made many near approaches to our system. There are
many reasons why tae north should warmly enter in•ci
our union, especially as by the junction of Austria to it, an
immense market would be opened to northern commit ref.
• • • But what is principally to be done ? What can be
done ? How far can the deli 'tuitions of the Conference
promote this object? • • • It mey be thought that the
sicepti et measure would be the dissolution of all Zsllyereins
now existing in Germany, on the understanding that a new
Vadin, including all the German states, should be estab-
lished. But it would be diftletilt to get the consent of all the
states to this : besides, it would be in the first instance, not
to approach but to remove away from the o`jrct aimed at.
Toe great advantage of the already existing union of so
many etat,s of different interests would be sacrificed,
and it would ha difficult when they were cite scattered,
to bring them egaiu together in terms so mutually beneficial.
• • • The only practical mode of proceeding is to extend
and carry out the Verdian on its existing principles. The
present alliances should be carefully maintained, but prepa-
lions should b made for mutual approzimatiens of different
systems, sod for the amalgamation of all of them in one. • •
Toe conferences may, therefore, determine to let in the place
of the 19. h article of the Diet Act and the Gith article of the
Vienna concluding act resolutions very specifically expressed,
somewhat to the followieg effect:
. . .

" All the German government' pledge thenvelves to use
all their etforts to firing about a union of all the 0 man
states by • commas legislation in all customs and commercial
matters, by tne similar establishment of commercial institu-
tions, and oy free interne' transit, with a view to the lurther
development and mutual approximations of already existing
alliances." . .

" For this purview plenipotentiaries will be. as soon as pos-
sible, appointed. in order to came to resoluqoas on the tot
lowing points —On approximations to the tariff (A nnisikrwsg

Finally. On the formation of a standing committee for

plete union, and for the preparation and establishment of a

To-day a sitting of the bank took place. The bank
advanced to the government 900,000 gulden in state-
paper money. It is highly probable that the old
beak ec,orr will be re-elected. The dividends
amount to 33 gulden ; 2,136,000 remain as a reserve
fund.
