FRANCE.

The Senates-Consulte of the 4th November is much
disoussed and much speculated upon in political
circles. It appears certain that some members of
that body desire that, in order to avoid all discussion,
one sole article to the following effect shall be sub-
mitted to the people :
" The French Empire shall be hereditary ,in the direct
line, iu the family of Louis Napoleon. In the event of
Louis Napoleon having no male issue he shall have the
right to name his successor. Lout)) Napoleon shall be em-
powered to introduce in the Constitution the modifica-
tions he may think necessary, with the view of harmon-
izing the new powers of State with the new regime."
Several new names will be shortly added to the
Pares C4nscripti. One general and one admiral are
spoken of, but the hesitation is as to the choice of
persons ; the other names are those that, with one ex-
ception, have been spoken of already several times—M.
de St. Georges, director of the National Printing-office;
M. Berger, Prefect of the Seine ; M. Moreau,
Prefect of the Seine-et-Oise ; and M. de Suleau,
of the Boucher-du-Rhcne.

A number of Senators have already arrived in
Paris. It is believed that the important session of
of the 4th will not last snore than eight days. AP
the documents relative to the coronation of Kings,
and of the Emperor Napoleon in particular, are being
collected in the national and other public libraries by
the employes of the Ministry of the Interior.
The Prince President, it would appear, has some
intention of paying a visit to the northern and
western departments of France previous to the pro-
clamation of the Empire.
The Chamber of Commerce of Brest has presented
an address to the President, thanking him for the
creation of that establishment.
It is expected that Abd-el-Kader will pay a visit
to Paris the moment be Is allowed to quit the Chateau
of Amboise. His joy is said to be extreme at his
approechingWration, end he has promised to pay
another visit to France in a year or two. It is be-
lieved that the Turkish Minister, Prince Callimaki,
knew nothing whatever of the President's intention
to release the Emir.
It is stated that the reduction of the number of
regiments of mounted ehasseurs of the army to twelve,
and that of the hussars to eight, has been decided on.
The two regiments that will be suppressed, the 15th
of the former and the 9mh of the latter, will form the
two regiments of guides to ho created for the special
service of the new Emperor.
A letter from Marseilles of the 20th inst. states
that M. Durand, the commissary of police of that
town, accompanied by another officer, had arrested
25 operatives, forming a secret society. These men
had assembled the previous day in a lone house in
the valley of Anderre, where they indulged in
drinking to excess. They had exhausted the demo-
cratic vocabularly in shouting such phrases as " Vine
/a Republique Sociale !" "Vine la guillotine !" "A bas
les riches !" " Au feu les praes !" and thf.se aspira-
tions were varied by couplets from the Carmagnole,
and other favourites of the Montagnard musicians
They were but the prelude to a sieenificant ceremony
which followed the dessert. A representation of a
gallows was raised by them, and hailed with cries of
*4 The gallows is erected ; the gallows fur ever !"
They neet carried their fraternal theories into effect
by plundering the neighbouring orchards and vine-
yards.
