OUR PARIS LETTER,

(mow ova owx

PARIS, Pin Evzxzu.

The Gaitlois, whose connexion with the govern-
ment is not doubtful, comes out to-night with
the following terrible paragraph to frighten the
lieges:
LATEST.

The following is understood to be the substance of what
passed at the ministerial council yesterday :—The go-
veroment has proofs in hand of tlio widow. of •
wet con/piracy, employing all possible means to op-
pose the Empire, and calling to its aid every ele-
ment of disorder and bostility ; the press, public
ni hinge, manifestations; making use for its work of old
parties, old rancour, newly-fledged him:allow. sad, in •
wad, labouring with the avowed object of overturning
the exi-ting order of things. The public subscription was
but a ',strut sad a set crerity; then was • real
plot, the jrincipal leaden of which are known,
the accomplices aninasksid, and the manosuvree of which
are found out. The law of public safety will be imme-
(lately enforced with all its enmity; the government has
resolved to show itself most energetic. It will not shrink
before the threats of its adversaries. It will prove to
hostile parties that it is sins& and to its friends
that it watches over public tranquility. The
preen will not be elected by eweptional severity
unless it lends deaf to excite dangerous passions
It will remain fres to discuss with that calm liberty which
hada great Wawa and psis questions, theorise and
acts without provoking ageism storms.
_ _

AM this proves what I have long told you, that
the most authorised organs of the government
now-a-days are the Cesiegnaes who are always
preaching a coup d'ael. We have already got all
the way back from January 19, 1887, to 1858,
and the very worst times of the Empire
when General &Timm* was Minister of
the Interior. In to night's Payi Paul de
Cassagnac vomits forth a torrent of
Billingsgate against Berryer. whom he call, a
wretched, used-up old man, whose talent went
long ago, and who has now lost all moral sense.
M. Paul de Cassagnao regrets that the customs in
tome countries of antiquity of killing off useless
old men cannot be applied to M. Berryer's case,
and he announces that, for his own part, he shall
no longer salute him.
The Sixth Correctional Chamber was beseiged at
an early hour this morning by people anxious to
hear the trial of the dvenir National, Bevel:,
Tribune, and Revue Politique. As I anticipated,
the application to postpone the trial of
the 2 ribune on account of the absence
of M. Jules Fevre was refused. Thereupon
M. Durot, the manager of the Tribune, " made
default." It was soon evident, from the course
of the examination of the accused by the president,

M. Vivien, that his efforts were directed to con-
nect the announcement of a subscription for a
monument to M. Baudin with the demonstration
made around his grave on All Souls' Day. M.
Quentin, the editor of the R. rail, denied the ac-
curacy of the report of a speech over the grave
uh:ch was put into his mouth by the police. M.
Peyret, of the ifeenir National, was not at the
metery at all, and his offence consisted
simply in the publication of the subeerip-
tie n list. The witnesses were all police spies,
ho were sent to the cemetery dressed, some as
workmen, some as students, and some as com-
mercial clerks. One of these witnesses provoked
great laughter by the brutally unconscious way
in which he spoke slightingly, as he supposed his
duty required, of Oodefroi Caveigneo's tomb as that
of "le @icor (Univac." I understand that
Creanisux made an extremely eloquent and cowls-
goose speech for the defence. At an unusually
late hour the hearing was adjourned till to-
morrow.

In the midst of a long list of subscriptions is. the
Temps to the Baudin monument of not mote than
2fr., Ur., or Sir. there appears one of 200 fr. from
M. Henri Rochefort, editor of the Lantana,.

N. Louis Blanc writes to the Temps from
Brighton that be joins heart and soul in the
Bandies subscription, and puts down his name for
20fr.
M. Marie having been asked to adhere to the
legal opinion given by MM. Cremieux and others,
writes to the Annie National that he thinks it
were lost labour to prove the affirmative of a ques-
tion on which no sane mind Gan entertain a doubt.
To ask a tribunal to condom the subeeribers

to the Bat dm monument is to call upon it to sanc-
tion the doctrine tbet ossespiraoy again it 14w is
paercd and holy whenever it is successful. Ile
cannot bolivne that Fseace has yet fallen so low al
torsobssi[♦ to this ruling ; be will not condom:4m3
to argue, but a 1 peals •to the country.
no news to-day of the

mural interest is tams is sad. The following
