As our readers are all interested in the pro.
ceedings of the new House of Commons, and
many of them have expressed a wish to know the
very earliest period at which any deliberate plan
can be brought forward for alleviating the alarm-
ing distress now prevailing throughout the entire
country, the following Parliamentary prospectus
may be found useful. In making the statement,
the plan suggested by a general correspondent
of the newspapers is not taken into account, as
our object is simply to calculate the time re-
quired for the commencement of real business,
without reference to a prorogation or any con-
test for the Speakership. The Houses meet on

The Paris Journals of Saturday have all been
received, but they are more than usually
barren of news of the slightest political
interest. The dissolution of the National
Guards of Toulouse hardly attracted any
notice. The National is the only journal
which denounces the conduct of the Govern-
ment in adopting such an extreme measure. We
quote its leading observations :
" The Government has thrown off the mask. Its
Commissioner at Toulouse had entered into negotiation
with the Municipal Council of Toulouse, and affected in
his language and behaviour, an appearance of peace and
conciliation ; but this was only to put to sleep the just
resentment of the citizens, and to deceive the pub-
lie. He was in the mean time preparing a sort of coup-
d'etat against the city of Toulouse. Whilst the public
mind in that place is still affected at the scenes of
which it has been the theatre, new elements of discord
and agitation are introduced. Although it is now
evident to every honest man that the illegal, in-
tolerable, and anti-municipal circular of M. Ha-
mann, and the conduct of M. lfahul, were the
cause of all the evil, and that, without the devoted-
ness of the Municipal Council and the intervention
of the National Guard, Toulouse would have become a
prey to all the horrors of civil war, a Royal Ordonnance
dissolves the Municipality and the National Guard, which
had rendered such incontestible services to public order.
We do not know to what immediate consequences this
iniquitous and impolitic dissolution may lead, as regards
the city of Toulouse, but it cannot fail to impose upon
those who signed it a grave responsibility. The mea-
sure was dictated by that spirit of hostility with which
the Government is animated against all those institutions
which are based upon the suffrage of citizens."
The Quotidienne pronounces the fetes of July
a failure. It would be strange indeed to find one
of the leading Carlist organs satisfied with them.
It cannot be denied, however, that there is much
truth in the following picture of the existing
state of things in France :
The parasites of the present system flatter themselvps.
