leilasLog iseseastiosal policy, in fact, carried on
~y is nothing but a game of chess,
into which line cannot be introduced. The only way
of obtaining it is by introducing the popular element,
and taking the management of the government out
of the bands of the merely scientific. Although
no one cabinet will then resist, one people may maim
head against the rest of the world. France did this
in 1792. And Germany could very well do it to-
morrow. But no court can do it; none can ever de-
cide it bat the unanimous voice of a free people.
There is, however, great inconvenience rn the em-
, ploy of the ppeler element. Its power, indeed, is
irresistible; it carries everything before its mar ar-
mies as, aristocracies can withstand its onset. Bat
it knows maiden to stop, nes how to stop. It cannot
consolidate, ear organism, nor defend. Beams itself
distracts, good fortune divides it. Both Germany and
France know too well how Vainly it lives, and how
miserably it expires.

fore concentrated in the idea that moderato *Wain

path of policy had met with signal success in Ragland,
and that success has raised the country to the greatest

world ever saw united. France was following in the

irruption, now of absolutism, now of democracy.
lint on the whole it is and was evident, that the
only poselliki government for France or for England,
is seek eseigmealse Marren extreme principles as
eireameleems may suppeter permit.
But whilst the west of Europe was thus irrevo-
cably pledged to the principle of moderate freedom,
or other ekes of constitutiocaliem, the east sets up
more prominently than seer the principle of 'ba-
ntam. Russia and Austria have sworn alliance upon
its altar. In face of both of them arose a country
North Germany, anxious to assimilate itself to the
west, and to heist the standard of constitutionalism.
If England and Ernes had one duty or interest, it
was to swearer such an effort, and to uphold Prus-
sia in making it. The court and statesmee 1 Pra-

FRANCE. .-• •
PARIS, W3DXZSDAT EVENING.
- The President's message was terminated on Mon-
day 'night, and relented yesterday laming .to the
council of ministers. It contains nothing that can is
the least contribute to disturb the sudden amity which
has been contracted between the powers so lately
arrayed in extreme opposition and flashing recipro-
' ealteflance. No allusion is made to the prolongation
of the President's powers; bat the message is, like
dint trf the chief magistrate of the United States, a
developed statement of the condition of the country
in relation to those measures which are destined to
occupy the session. It is needless for me to repeat
that the passive and humiliating part which has been
forced upon the President in hoe of the gross affront
inflicted upon him by Gene* Chnneartlier an only
be accepted in order to gale time. No minister can at
present be found who will undertake the responsibility
of oonntersigning an ordinance dismissing that power-
ful chief from his post. That the same soreness still
exists on the subject of the famous order of the day is
evident from the tone of the Bonapartist pees., which
does not cease to assail the commander-6941134d of the
army of Paris with virulent abuse. We may there-
fore conclude that the present truce will be abruptly
broken as soon as some weapon of firm tamper enough
to strike with effect an be found; in other words,
until a cabinet can be formed that is prepared to face
the consequences of dismissing Chaegarnier. To-
morrow the Committee of Permanence will hold their
ordinary sitting, in order to decide upon the course
to be taken in relation to the President's attitude
during the latter part of the recess, and in what
form, or whether at all, a manifestation of the
Assembly's displeasure at his tampering with
the discipline of the army, and changing the
commands in order to favour views of private ambi-
tion, ought to be brought forward. It seems highly
probable that the Committee of Permanence will take
advantage of the acceptant). of General Changer-
nier's order of the day by the Elysee to back oat of
their previous hostile position against the govern-
ment, and to suspend all further proceedings upon
this subject. Foe this purpose a resolution will be
framed declaring the satisfaction of the Committee
with the complete vindication of the law and the
roles of the military service, the authority of which
had been impaired by recent proceedings, through
the government's sanction of the general-in-chiefs
order of the day. The committee and their chief
struck the last blow, and there they will stop till
fresh provocation comes from the other side.
Yesterday the President gave a dinner to the ge-
nerals of the army of Paris, at which General Chan-
garnier was present. The recent conflict was too
fresh is all minds for anything like festivity to pre-
vail. The dinner was grave and silent, and the
champagne failed to promote conviviality.
Au article in the Mondeur do Soir, ingned by M.
Belniontel, a personal friend of the President, and
criticising very sharply General Changarnier's order
of the day, has drawn much attention. The Pays of
to-day contains the following passage :" If General
Changarnier persist in refusing all explanation (with
regard to the tone adopted by his partisans in the
press) we shall be obliged to share an opinion, which
is becoming very general, of his perfect nullity, his
intractable character, and his inmate vanity."

We fled the following in the Gazette! de- France :
It it affirmed that, in consmasses of the good dadentand-
ing which now appears to exist between the President of the
Republic and General Champrnier, fresh steps have beau
taken to induce General Naamayer to accept the command
of the 14th sad 16th military divisions, and it is hoped that
ha may be induoed We revoke the refaiel which he had elven
before the order of the day of General Cheaternier had been
steepled at the Elyse*.

The ensemble of the great municipal and depart-
mental law ham been voted at the first reading
by the Council of State. The
.provision which
conferred the investiture of municipal magistrates
on the executive power, and the indication of
candidates ,on the municipal council bad been
previously rejected by a slight majodty. On
the other hand, the Council of State has decided
that the removal of theme magistrates should continual
to take place only by virtue of its own decision. M.
Baroche struggled in vain to oppose this provision
and obtain for the government the power of removing,
as well as appointing mayors.
A new ballot will take place about the middle of
the month for the election of a member of the Aca-
demy. There will be a smart contest between MM.
de Montalembeet, Alfred de Mueset, and Nisard.
There was a retrograde movement to-day in the
Funds, which cannot be attributed to any political
reasoo. The Fives closed at 92.75, with a fall of 35
centimes on yesterday. The Threes fell 40 centimes,
dosing at 67.60.
The article of the Assent:6r Nationale to-day in reply
to that of the Monitore du Bnir, attacking Gen. Chan-
garnier, has drawn the following official communicstion,
from the government, which will be inserted in the
Assemblee's number of to-morrow : " The .Assemblie
Nationale, in its number of the 6th, makes the Pre-
sident of the Republic responsible fur the polemics of
the Moniteur the Etoir. The government is entirely
foreign to such polemics. The Moniteur du E.`oir can-
not be styled the organ of the Elyse., it being
notorious that its administration is the same as that
of the Assembli• Nationale."
The English mail arrived late this morning in con-
acquaint) of a collision between the merchandise and

There milkers to be at present no doubt of the re-
turn of General Lahitte, as the government has re-
ceived the following telegraphic despatch :
