called out, 46 Mr. Alderman Boydell,-shall I
help ye] to -a plate of turtle, or a slice of the
haunch, I am within the reach of both, Sir ?"
" Neither one nor t'other, I thank Yon; Sir,"
replied the. Alderman : 66 I. think I shall 'dine
upon the beans and bacon, which are at this end
of the 'table."—" Mr: Alderman. Maeauley,"
continued the Chamberlain, which .would you
choose, Sir, venison or, turtle ?''=66 Sir, I will
not trouble you for either;_ furl belleve.l shall
follow the example' of mi.brother Boyd-ell, and
dine on beans and bacon," was the Tep4.- On
this second refusal, the old Chamberlaiturose
from his seat, and with every mark of. astdiiish-
went in his countenance,. curled Op'the.‘'cOrners
of his mouth, cast his!eyes round the tali and in
a voice as loud, and 'articulate. as he. Was able,
called " Silence ! " which being obtainedi he
thus addressed'the Chief MW-iistrate, ?Who sat in
the Chair : " Lord Mayor,:the wicked have
accused us of intemperance,:anqranded us with
the imputation of ghttiongrthat they-May be
put to open shame, and their pane tongues be
from this 'day utterly Silenced; f humbly move,
that your Lordship command the proper officer
to record it on .our annals that turn Aldermen of
the City of London prefer beans and' bacon to
either turtle-soup or venison!" ' i•

• ciumßEß OF DEPUTIES,' JAN. 23.
The Keeper of the Seals, and-the Ministers of
the Interior, Foreign" Affairs, and Finance, were
present when the debate on the project concern-
ing the offences of the press began.
M. Reveliere, whose turn it was, according to
the ordeir in which the names had been inscribed,
to speak, addressed the Chamber in favour of
the project.

General Sebastiani.—Before entering on the'
discussion of the question, I must take the liberty
to request that the Ministers will place the
Chamber in a fixed position. We have two law
projects before us—one presented by the Minis--
try, the other by the Committee: It is time that
the Ministers shonld inform us which of these
two,
,projects they mean to support.- (A general
Movement in the Chamber.)
M. Peyronnet rose.—The Chamber must have
plreagy.anticipated that I do not rise to speak
. for the purpose of answering. the call of the lion.
Deputy.. An occasion will doubtless arise when
'Ministers' will have an opportunity of 'explaining
their opinions on . the amendments of the Corn
_mate but this is not the 'time, •,The qnestion
.which has been put is out, and: it would be con.
trary, to. the practice of the Chamber; and, incon-
:siitent with our position, tozreply.'z-(Laughter.)
---Our wishes and opinions are not equivocal,
, but they cannot now be Aated.
de Girardin.—But you are a. Member of
the Committee ? • :
• Other voices.--And in- that COmmittee 'the
jury has been unanimously suppressed.7---(Bgi7
tation.)
T.
Sebastiani said, that as the Ministers, per:-
Sisted in leaving the Chamber in uncertainty, he
should enter on the disCussidn of the project.
• He argued that it had not been.brought forward
for tire preservation of order.- Bad that been
• the object of the measure, it would only be ne-
cessary for the Chamber to consider' it as a penal
• law; This was not a question raised for general,
but for party interests. No excess of the press
has ever compromised public'order. What re-
cent excess is complained of AS a ground for this
law None.- But a party is beginning to rule,
whieh:is very weak in the nation, and it feels
that4the existence of its power is incompatible
• with 'the liberty of the press. They therefore
intended to'clestroy it at once.—(Bravos, on the
' left:')'=-The 'voice -of the public, were it allowed
'• torie'heard'in 'public affairs, might wrest power
fronit• the'hatids of this insignificant party. When
society is 'detaChed from its government, it still
possesses an 'influence on public affairs through
the press, and 'die institution of juries. Hence it,
• 'is desired that the press should he subjugated,
and the jury abolished. Then :the ruling party
will be' free, for they will no longer in any way
come in contact with the 'people.
- General Partonneaux supported the project..
He declared that he loved liberty and , detested
despotism., against which no ,voice was raised
.'wh'et" it`distribtited rank, honours, and fortune.
..General•Fey.—l. That is not true.
• •M. Payee de Vandmuvre opposed the • pre-
ject,: and more. pahicularly the Amendments of
the Committee.. Ile desired the Chamber to
recollect: how the excess ,of despotism had ob-
liged a neighbouring,•peo.ple to have recourse
to fciace.
