himself personally alluded to ben roes and said that thi
i attacks of DI. Hugo made ao mpulsion upon him.) But he
woull combat with all his m4ht the pretensions of the
Jesuitical party, which sought support from Voltairians,
who laughed at then, and from beakers, mostly Join, whom
that partly would willingly °email to the dunes. H. did
not, however, fear them. The Jesul'e were like night birds
who attempted to fly in noonday. (Lauttliter.) Id. Victor
Hugo, in eundasion, declared that all thetaorts of that party
would be unavailable to destroy the human mind, which wen
as subtle se light, and as inacessaible as the sun.
M. Hugo, having descended from the tribune, was Bur
rounded sad complimented by his friends of the Mountain.
Mier a short interruption,
M. BATOTI rose to develop an amendment to the ant
article. " Conformably," be said, to the principle of liberty,
equality, and fraternity, the feadamental basis of our repub-
lican constitution of 148,—conformably to the very essence
of universal suffrage, which implies the liberty of the press
and speeeb,—in virtue of the 9th article of the constitution,
which proclaims that liberty by declaring that citisene pos-
sess the right of manifesting their opinions by means of the
press or otherwise, and that the exercise of that right has no
other limits than the rights or liberty of othen and public
security; whereas that right, Was guarantied, cannot be
curtailed by restrictions on the liberty of the press, I propose
to the Assembly to vote the following counter-project
The decree of the 9th of Argue, 1848, and the Artie. 8
of the law of the 27th of July, 1849, are abrogsvd. From
the let of April, 1850, the conionnensent of newspapers is
abolished." _ _

A division on this amendment having been called for,
there appeared—for the amendment, 197; again it, 438.
The amendment was accordingly declared to be rejected.
The Assembly next rejected an amendment of M. Funny,
who proposed that, until the promulgation of the organics
law of the preel, the cautionnement of the journals and
periodical publications should remain u it stood fixed by
the law of the 9th of August, 1848.
M. Cumuli/Limn subsequently moved that every journal
should appear with the signature and under the personal
responsibility of the chief editor.—liejeeted.
The result of the sitting was the adoption of the
first four paragraphs of the Ist article of the law,
and the reference of the remainder to the committee.
Three or four amendnients,of no interest, were succes-
sively rejected; and the eitting broke up without fur-
ther incident.
In the course of the debate, M. Rouher, having oc-
cupied the tribune to speak against en amendment
proposed by M. de la Rochette, wu received with tre-
mendous uproar by the Mountain. For a quarter of
an hoar such a noise wumado that the minister could
not be heard. At length, after several energetic at-
tempts of the President to restore order, the greater
put of the Mountain retired from the Assembly, and
M. Rmher was allowed to speak.
M. Fould stated in the committee on the press law
that he was ready to abandon the fiscal provisions of
the law in exchange for a tax upon paper, which
would be certainly far more profitable to the treasury.
The committee of initiative has declared against
taking into consideration the motion of M. Caatillon,
in favour of drawbacks on French wines and spirits.
The Journ,.l de Rouen states that the new electoral
lists contain for that town, up to the present time,
only 8,300 electors. In 1848 there were there for the
first election 27,919 electors, and 1849, 23,842. The
diminution in the first numba is now 19,619.

The police have commenced a campaign against
semnambulism, under which title a swarm of charla-
tans swindle the simple public. Yon cannot take up
a paper without finding advertisements with respect to
the extra-lucidity of half a dczen damsels, who pro-
fees the power of curing all diseases, indicating the
whereabouts of stolen goods, and diving into past,
present, and future for the solution of all riddles and
riddance of all ills. M. Carlier, it seems, is about to
open a general battue on these Caseandras, and sweep
them, bag and baggage, out of Paris.
The report of M. Berryer on the budget of expen-
diture for 1851 was distributed yesterday in the As-
sembly, and it is supposed it will be put on the order
of the day for Monday. The committee have not in-
troduced any important modification in the project of
government, founded as it is on the bases of the budget
of 1850. The report commences with the ministry
of the marine, in which important reforms are con-
sidered necessary. I extract from the report a
portion relative to the ministry of war and the
effective of the army for 1831: "The state of our
colonies and of the increase of military forces in some
countries of Europe, the necessity of maintaining
order and security in Paris and the departments,
render necessary the maintenance of the army in
nearly the same force as at the time of the vote of the
former budget. In the first instance, the minister
proposed to fix this at 384,240 men and 85,706 horses.
This has since been increased by the augmentation of
the gendarmerie mobile by 1,683 men, and in his rec-
tified project of budget the minister demands the
creation of 461 new brigades of horse and foot
gendarmerie.
The steam-frigate Mogador is arrived at Toulon
from Naples, bringing despatches and discharged sea-
men. The French neat shows no signs of stirring
from the bay, although the admiral had received
despatches by the Grondeur. It is repotted that
French mediation has been accepted by England in
the Neapolitan affair. Ships from Toulon and Mar-
seilles are subjected to a quarantine on the Italian
coast. At Naples this quarantine is of eight days.
The steamer Dauphin, from Civita Vecchia brings no
news. The state of things at Rome was dismal. No
terra is assigned to the stay of the French troops,
which are concentrated at Rome and Civita Vecchia.
It was thought that sooner or later the Austrians
would occupy the whole country.
Young Walker has been examined by several phy-
sicians, who have pronounced an opinion in common
that he labours under mental alienation. It is sup-
posed that he will be sent to the hospital of Bicetre.

PRUSSIA.

BERLIN, JrLY 7.
The ratifications of the peace with Denmark were
exchanged last night. The Landeeverwaltung in
Flensburg ceases to exist at once. No parties are
pleased with the treaty except the duchies. The
press of Berlin is very bitter in its attacks on the go-
vernment.
The army of the duchies will amount to 40,000
men. The head-quarters are to be removed to
I Rendsburg.
The melancholy news of Sir R. Peel's death has
arrived. His death is generally felt as a great
European lose.
