H. Odilon Barrot dime to-morrow at the Elyse..
In the Assembly the order of the day called to the
discussion of the demand to authorise the_prouestion
of two representatives, MM. Idiot and Rout, for a
slanderous libel on the council-general of the Nievre.
The committee wee in favour of taking the proposi-
tion into consideration. M. Corns opposed die -pro-
motion in the name of the independence of the na-
tional representation. M. Emile Leroaz, the:reporter,
observed that the prosecution had a serious character,
which did not permit the Assembly to refuse the au-
thorisation, without compromising its dignity by pro-
tecting representatives, and establishing a privilege
not extended to any other class of accused persons.
M. (kemieux opposed the bill. The Assembly, on
being consulted, authorised, by a vote by aerie et lea,
the prosecution of MM. Idiot and Roust. M.
Miot said "there was yesterday among us only a pri-
mmer. To-morrow there will be a corpse." This
phrase was an allusion to the death of Malardier,
which M. Cremieux had announced u probable ac-
cording to letters from La Nievre. The house then
proaeeded to discuss the mortgege-system. In the
course of the sitting M. Fould, Minister of Finance,
presented a bill opening an extraordinary credit of
941,000 fr. for the packet-boat service of the Mediter-
ranean.
The bill relative to the completion of the Western
Railway was yesterday distributed to the Assembly.

The Lyons journals state that manufac*urinie opera-
tions, which had been very dull indeed during the
month of October and part of that of November, have
recently become active, owing chiefly to large orders

CASSEL, Dao.

The Elector's government ham, we hear, ampreard
itself strongly opposed to any Pension troops remain-
ing in Cassel. One of the state council of the party
of Hassenpflug has demanded that compensation
should be required foe damages done, and the ex-
penses oocasioaed by the Prussian troops in Haas ;
and was answered by another member of the council,
that the Premium had injured no one', property, but
had conducted themselves in a most praiseworthy
manner. The former city commandant, General von
Storcb, arrived here on the 6th, from Wilhelmsbad.
The ministerial envoys from that place have returned.
From these circuinstanom it is presumed that the re-
turn of the Elector will not be long delayed. It
seems to be determined that liassenpflog is to go as
envoy to Vienna.

HUNFRLD, Dn. 8.
Things seem to be, though slowly, reaching their
term. It is expected that the Prussians will, to-
morrow, evacuate Hersfeld, and that on the following
days the troops of the Diet will take possession of
that place, from thence to advance to Cassel. To-
day several Austrian corps, infantry, cavalry, and
artillery, marched through the town, in the direction
of Ziegenhain and Marbourg.
