is the new phase at which we cuts r. What is this
pulley to be? The Message describes i s expressly. This
rze.grnneme is altoeether in the name, of Napokon. Every-
bed !mews whet this name signifies for the deeaceraey.
All that is tidde.l. is het the ordicery comer:on-piece,
which all p )wers employ alike. And what is to be the
ceeeditioe of the reeliz vien of the prof-ere:nine? The
manifesto tells au', too: it is the du-ability of power
which contributes powerfully to the general stability. Is
this condition referable to the imperfccaons (j.t is consti-
tution alluded to in the Message?"
The Siecle, which is generally considered as the
organ of M. DUFAURE and the tiers parti, supports
the PRESIDENT. It says—
" We received the Message of the President of the
Republic as we have received the letter of the 18th
August with sympathy, with reserve, with the ardent
desire to see the acts of power become conformable
with its words. Truly, if we had not been in the habit
of looking to statesmen rather than to form, to action
more than to principle, we might congratulate ourselves
for the political line so closely traced out by the Presi-
dent of the Republic, as very nearly that which we our-
selves so perseveringly advocated. It is wise to wait
to-day as on the 18th August, the President of the Re-
public appears to seiv with a true inetinct the real
necessities of our time—he appears to have broken, in
fine with those old parties so fall of selfishness, and so
little animated with the spirit of our new iustiturions.
He sees that he has been used as a tool and an instrnment,
and instead of being able to accomplish, as he desired, a
fusion of interests, he has only arrived at a neutralism
E. of forces."

A supplement to the Moniteur was published yes-
terday officially declaring the dismissal of the
ODILLON BARROT Cabinet, and the appointment of
ti-eir successors. Paris was in a state of great ex-
citement during the whole of yesterday.
The Moniteur contains the following:—
" Several journals have given different venions of a
collision of which the small colony of Nors-E6 has re-
cently been the theatre. The following are the official
details which the Government has just received of this
unfortunate affair. The abolition of slavery had caused
groat irritation among the Sakalave proprietors residing
at Nora-F6 Soon after the promulgation of the decree
of emancipation they abandoned the French establi:h-
went and retired es masse to the main land of Mada-
gascar. The Commandant of Mazotte, hearing of
this sudden emigration, went among these men, over
whom he had somo influence. He could not succeed
in bringing them back to our territory, but he
at least thought that he had appeased their anger,
as they all protested their pacific disposition. Captain
Despointes, commanding the naval station of Reunion,
who visited them some time after, received similar assu-
rances ; but after the sailing of the Reine Blanche their
attitude soon changed. They commenced by making
nocturnal incursions on our establishment, and then at-
tempted some acts of incendiarism; &ter which they
assassinated two European dealers, MM. Labaville and
Wilder. Captain Marchatese, of the Marines, who
commanded in the island, apprehended that he should
soon have to repel a serious attack, and concentrated his
forces on the Plateau of Helleville, which he put in a
state of defence. On the 16th of June he was informed
that the Sakalaves had landed to the number of 4,000. H.,
sent out a detachment to reconnoitre, composed of 100
Malgach militia, 20 Native infantry, and one corporal
and one soldier (whites), under the command of Lieu-
tenant Cottey, of the Marines. This little force fell into
an ambush, in the midst of the main body of the enemy.
At the first fire the Malgachcs took to flight.
Lieutenant Cottey and the corporal perished in boldly
defending their lives, and the other white and five
men of the African company fell wounded beside
their officer. Emboldened by this sucess, the Sake-
laves
came the next day to nearly within cannon
shot reach of Ilelleville, set fire to the sur-
rounding villages, and commenced the siege of the
Plateau. They were there repulsed on all sides, and
hastily embarked for the main land. On hearing of
these events the Commissary-General of the Isle de la
Reunion end the Commandant of the squadron, took
measures to secure our possession at Nurs h 6 from
further eggression. Captain Despointes went himself
with the Reine Blanche and the steam-corvette Cassini,
with a reinforcement of infantry and artillery, and other
forces were taken there by the Oise corvette. It may be,
therefore, calculated on, that any further hostilities on
the part of the Sakalaves will have either been prevented
or repressed."
Yesterday being All Saints Day the Bourse was
shut.
The Presse makes no comment on the PRESIDENT'S
Message, p estibly in consequence of the absence of
M. DE GIILARDIN in London.
The funds are quoted at the Passage de l'Opera at
87:. 25c., so that the fall of If. has not in the
slightest degree recovered.
