The Constitutionnel contains a long article by M.
Vaabiv, headed La Bourgeoisie et le Suffrage
Universal." The writer seeks to demonstrate the
evils to which the bourgeoisie has given rise in the
State by its systematic resistance to authority. Thus
it committed two revolutions; one in 1830, with the
cry ofi-" Vive la Charte !" the other in 1848.. with
cos 10 ancient times, but under reigns when the
the, cry of "IT iv" la Ileforuker.and this at periods

resPeefive Governments made every effort to give to
the boUrgeoisie and beneficial participation in
-poWer. 13y this suicidal conduct,' he contknds, the
Vourgeoisie has wrought its own poiitical downfall,
malirug itself subservient tO the masses whom it in-
cited against VERON recommends the
hourgeoisielo make au littetnot_to recover its position
by imitating -the con'duct of the same clasS in
England, respecting t-,uthority itself, and exercising

for bread, to the observance of the laws 1114
ie,oittitionF. Universal suffrage has created avower
welch, if exercised in a, spirit of hostility to the
bourgeoisie would,overpower it, but if the bourgeoisie
on the other- band, co-ooerate with the govern-
tricot to keep the exvreit-e, of universal suffrage within
reasonable limits, and Ln the other bandtexert itself to
conciliate, enlighten, and instruct the productive
classes, with i view to the passession of thejust in-
fluence to which it is entitled, it must become povrer-
ful, and remain so by causing its power to be
respected. There is much truth ill M. VERON'S
description of the class with whom he expostulates.
He says :—. •
"In France, as in Eteanil, the bourgeoisieds now at
the tead of our manufactories, our banking houses, and
our commtroial wholesale and retail establishments; it
supplies with :members our public atheinistratiens, our'
academies,, our clergy, our army, and our magistrature.
In all the elections it has its weight-rand irrespected.
It owes its •cohquests, its importance, and its bonours to
ha ardour-fox indastayits application, its intelligence,
its probity, and its hp.gts of order and ebenottty:'
France, however, the bourgeoisie does not, as in England,
obey with fervour the instincts of its religious senti-
ments; on; the contrary, it is opposed to all govern-
ment, and sets itself up in conflict against all kind of
authority."
The Public says :—" The grand,review which was
to take place on the 15th of April for the distribution
' of colours to the army is postponed to the Ist of
May. The whole of the army of Paris will be pre-
sent, as well as the National Guards, mounted and on
foot, and the guides."
The new standing orders cf the Corps Legialatif
are being drawn up in 'the office of the secretary of
the Presidency ; and are to be printed as soon as
possible, and distributed to all the members. The
old regulations consisted of 131 articles. The new
ones will not contain any relative to Parliamentary
initiative, to the right of interpellation, to the exami-
nation of petitions, or to speeches delivered from the
tribune—none of which will henceforth exist.
The Gazette de Lyon says :—" Several 'journals
have announced that the ROHAN family does not in-
tend to support the demand for restitution made
against.,the ORLEANS family by the old companions
in arms of the Prince DE CONDE and by the poor
children: of the Vendeans. We are able to contra-
, diet that assertion."

rose to 101 f. 10c., and fell subsequently to 1001. 70c.,
