tickAlle Nationale of this morning says
We th it right to call the most serious attention.
Abe government 'o the quec ion of food. The information
ieh we recei‘e from some del artmenta with respect to the
rot is not very favourable, and it is not among ourneigh-
sr that we could hope to tied resources to make up the
sufficiency of our supply of corn. We every day see in the
4lish journals the expression of the fears caused by the
yew in the potatoes, and distinctly declare that Ireland

,e. At our gate* Be.gium has just prorogued to 31st De-
ber the free entry ot wheat, rye, barley, buckwheat, In-
,. cora, been', vetches, peas, oats, fecula of potatoes, pots-
'Ariel, dried, secedes,
salted meat, and there is even a
000 question of prohibiting the exportation of grain. In
ostriceof these symptoms and warnings, there would be
ogbisg worse then negligence in not endeavouring to
ogil France against the consequences of a possible insufli-
fey el the horses'. The government must obtain an exact
oat of what our agricultural departments will • livid,
allot expose itself to the reproaches which were made two

The approaching election for the department of the

*, baring been annulled by the Assembly, is much
lied of. The legitimists are very numerous in

*pedcat La Chapelle have made serious complaints

stbe republic, a lainst which they exclaim violently.
telegraghic despatch, as to a demonstration of
border at Lyons, was received to-day, which is con-
eared to be somewhat grave, since it occasioned a
avocation of a council of ministers fcr to-day.
The entire parties of the Rue de Poitiers, a great
Ft of that of the Institute, and some members of the
naion of the l'slais Royale, have resolved to vote
the dissolution of the lissembly after passing the
so of the constitution.
lbw's just heard that the Committee on the Colonies
sd Justice, which have been engaged to-day on the
!Nation as to the transportation of the insurgents to
,feria, have determined on that colony. The oom-
ore under the presidence of the Minister of Marine
slso decided in the same manner.
Oa receiving the deputation of the journalists yes-
es*, General Cavaignac spoke unreservedly of the
Mrs which the threatened outbreak of the legiti-
sists excited in hie mind. He spoke of entire bee-
line of the national guard which were ready to
illy round that cause, but declared that he
weld use all the powers with which he
we invested to establish the republic. " I
el not," said he, " a republican of the eve, and I
ins faithfully served Louts Philippe. If I said the
witrary, all my acts would belie my words. But I
Ore accepted the present minion, and I will, with-
out weakness, fulfil it"
