the attacks made by M. ODILON BARROT on the As-
sembly, calls up,in M. ODILON BARROT to resign
at once, as it is evil.rt that he has lost the confidence
of the PRESIDENT, and that he never possissFed that of
the Assembly. It is clear that tho Ministry is in a
very feeble condition, that the PRESIDENT begins to
perceive that it is intended by the Ministers and their
reactionary supporters to make of him a planche
Napolionienne, and that he is by no means inclined to
be the mere RICHARD CROAIIVELL that the would-be
Monks imagined him to be.
The Siecle has formally withdrawn its support
from the Cabinet. Until recently, this journal was
the recognised organ of M. ODILON BARROT, and was
edited by M. LEON FAUCHER, the Minister of the
Interior. It declares there is no hope for the present
Cabinet unless it forms a coalition with the moderate
Republicans, who acknowledge General CAVAIGNAC
as their leader.

M. LEDRULIN, and 46 other members of the
party of the National Assembly called the M,,untain,
have addressed a collective letter to the llioniteur,
stating that they abstained from taking any part in
the vote for the Vice-Presidency of the Republic.
The National states that General CAVAIGNAC and
his friends voted for M. VIVIEN as Vice-President.
The following semi-official communication appeared
in the Patrie of Saturday evening :—" The amnesty
question has for several days been made a pretext by
several journals for directing insults and calumniei
against the PRESIDENT of the Republic. We shall
not take any further notice of these insults, nor
answer the calumnies, but leave it to the good
sense of the public to do justice upon them. There
is, however, an assertion which must not remain
uncontradicted, and upon which these journals
have principally dwelt. According to them, the
PRESIDENT of the Republic has promised to
grant the amnesty. The PRESIDENT of the Republic
has not entered into any such engagement. Several
times, it is true, in conversation upon this subject, he
has expressed his wish to see realised the desire he
expressed in his manifesto, and which has always
been in his heart, to grant the amnesty as soon as
circumstances would permit, but he has never given
any positive pledge that it should be done."
The Corsaire says--" To-morrow MM. JULES
FAVRE and BILLAULT are to join in interrogating the
Government as to its intended foreign policy. It
appears that the object of these two representatives is
tc:i bring to a conclusion the dicta laid down by M.
EMILE GIRARDIN, of no intervention, under any
pretext whatever; and an immediate reduction of the
budget to 1,300,000,000 f. MM. ODILON BARROT
and General RULHIERES will reply by simply moving
the order of the day. If this motion be rejected, the
Cabinet will immediately retire."
Orders have been given by the Minister of the
Marine for the suppression of one day's work in the
week in all the naval arsenals. This is fixed for
Saturday, as being partly occupied with the pay of
the men. It was at first intended to discharge a part
of the men ; but it was afterwards thought better to
make the reduction weigh equally, and comparatively,
lightly upon all.
Mademoiselle A. BLANQUI was arrested on Satur-
day, charged with having aided BARTHELEMY and
LECAMBRE to escape from prison.
With regard to the Italian question the National
has the following :
" We have received letters from Turin most worthy
of credit which throw new light upon the situation of
affairs at Rome. The Sardinian Government has pro-
tested energetically a4ainst the intervention off.red by
Spain, alleging that to the native Catholic Italian princes
alone belongs the right of intervention in the Roman
question. The King of Sardinia having proposed his
pacific, and, if necessary, armed mediation, takes away
from all foreign Courts the pretext of intervention.
But there is a circumstance which greatly enlarges the
question. The Pope, far from accepting the conclusions
of the Sardinian Cabinet, and trusting little to the *lli-
caciousness of intervention by Spain, has demanded that
of Austria. This determination of Pius IX. has pro-
voked the warmest remonstrances of the Sardinian Am-
bassador, in which he has been, it is said, sustained by
the French Ambassador. The question is then clearly
posed, shall we allow the Austrian Government to do-
minate
at Rome?"
