THE FRENCH REPUBLIC.

OPERATIVES.

We have received the Paris journals of yesterday.
The Ordre announces the final failure of the fusionist
scheme. It says—
" The conversations turned yesterday at the Assembly,
and indeed out of it also, on a piece of news to which certain
persons appeared to attach an undue importance. Three im-
portant members of the Legitimatist party, namely, MM.
Berryer, Benoist-d'Azy, and de St. Priest, in an intention
which cannot but be praiseworthy, and which does not need
to be mentioned, proceeded to Claremont to visit the august
relict of King Louis Philippe. The Queen had with her only
two of her sons, the Duke de Nemours and the Prince de
Joinville. The Duke d'Aumale recently took his departure
for Naples, and the Duchess of Orleans is in Scotland, with
her children. The three representatives of the Right, as
may be well supposed, received from the Royal Family
the reception due to their character and position. The
motive which induced them to proceed to England is a clear
proof of how much men's minds have become calmed down,
and of the oblivion of many old grievances and prejudices
which have so essentially contributed to the divisions of our
common country. It is that, above all, which ought to strike
public opinion. It would be, in our opinion, a grave error to
seek any other result in this unexpected visit. Without
having received on this subject any confidence, and without
having need of it, we affirm that the only answer which
could have been made to questions of a delicate nature is
this—that the house of Orleans remains united in the de-
termination to respect all the decisions come to freely by
France, and never to voluntarily separate from her right and
her fortune."

The Univers, which was founded by Queen AMELIE, as
the organ of the Parti-Pretre, and which is therefore likely
to be well informed on such a subject, declares that M.
BERRYER was distinctly told that, before he could be
listene3 to, he must publicly retract the vote he had
given against M. CRETON'S motion for the recal of the
Orleans family to France.
Thu Presse says—
" The unsuccessful attempt made at Claremont by MM.
Berryer, Benoist-d'Azy, and de St. Priest, is a mortal blow
given to the fusion, and from which it will not recover. It
is the disavowal of the policy adopted by M. Guizot, and
sustained by the Assembles Nationale. The journey of the
above-named gentleman was yesterday the theme of every
conversation in the Legislative Assembly. A melancholy
prologue to the wretched farce of the revision I"
The Council of state has decided, by a majority of

18 to 9, that any excitement, on the part of the PRESI-
DENT of the Republic, to the violation of Article 45 of
the Constitution (the article which renders him incapable
of being re-elected), might render him liable to im-
peachment.
The NatiJnal says:—" There was much talk at the
Assembly yesterday of a visit made a few days since by
M. DE FALLOUX to M. BONAPARTE. At this interview,
the ex-Minister of the elect of the 10th December is
said to have promised in the most formal manner to
spare no effort to induce the Legitimatist party to give a
vote coute qui coute, which might lead M. BONAPARTE
to a re-election, or to a prolongation of powers. It is
added that M. DE FALLOUX is said to have declared
that, compelled to renounce the idea of seeing the rising
of the star of Legitimacy, and deeply convinced that
M. 13ONAPARTE was the man who best represented his
political and religious opinions, he thought he should
render the best service to the cause of Catholicism and
of counter-revolution by devoting himself completely to
the Elysian policy."
Although there was not much :business transacted at
the Bourse, Government Stuck recovered in some mea-
sure from the depression. The Five per Cents. opened
at 93f. 800., fell to 93f. 70c., rose subsequently to 931.
95e., and closed at 93f. 80c. for the end of the month.;

PORTUGAL.
RESIGNATION OF THE MINISTRY.

Accounts from Lisbon of the 6th have been received.
In consequence of the intrigues of the courtiers who
support the CABRALS, the Marquis of LOULE, and SellhOTS
LotniE and PERTANA. have been compelled to resign
their portfolios. The Duke of SALDANIIA had pre-
viously explained to them the difficulties by which ho
was hampered in consequence of the Cabralite intriguers,
The following have been mentioned as likely to enter the
Cabinet:—RODßlGO DA FONSECA MAGALHAES, FONTES
PERREIRA DE MELLO, GARRETT, and FERRAO. The
latter, a friend and partisan of JOZE CABRAL, and iden-
tified with the Bank. GARRETT, an excellent poet and
literary character, put forward by BAnAs DE Luz.
FONTES PERREIRA DE MELLO, a deputy in the late Op-
position, but looked on as in some way adhering to the
tobacco contract. RODRIGO has already been in office, and
is well known.

GERMANY.
The Weiner Zeitung, of the Bth, states that the rail-
way treaty between Austria and Bavaria is concluded,
though not yet ratified. By this treaty it is stipulated
that the whole line, extending from Inspruck via Kuff-
stein and Salzburg to Munich, shall be completed on the
Ist of March, 1856, at latest.
Official intelligence from Frankfort states that nearly
all the German Governments are unanimous upon the
promulgation of a universal press law for the entire ter-
ritory of the Germanic Confederation. The national
representative system of the individual states is now to
be discussed. There is no doubt that the electoral law
of 1848 will be modified.

[PRICE SDO

MR. VETO AND THE NORWICH

An occurrence of a most pleasing character, and one
which must be alike gratifying to all the parties con-
cerned, took place yesterday at North Woolwich. Wo
refer to a dinner given by S. M. Peto, Esq., to upwards
of 250 operatives of Norwich, who have recently come
up from that city, accompanied by their wives, to visit
the Great InduP•rial Exhibition. The facts which led
to this festival are these:—Prior to the opening of the
Great Exhibition a large number of the operatives
evinced a desire to form themselves into a club, and to
contribute a portion of their wages per week, so as to
form a fund to defray the expenses of their fare to and
from London, so as to enable,ethem to view the
,Crystal
Palace and its wonders. A number of the,Wealthier in-
habitants of Norwich wishing to forward suciaeta desir-
able movement, took the matter up, and contributed
most liberally to the fund. Mr. Sultzer and the
Sheriff of Norwich undertook the duty of col-
lecting further subscriptions, and so successful were
their efforts that a short time ago it was announced to
the members of the club that the sum realized would be
sufficient to defray their expenses to and from Norwich
to London, and provide them with lodgings and a.break-
fast during five days, without trenching upon the money
they bad Subscribed, which it was at once resolved
should be returned to them. Amongst those who had
contributed most liberally was Mr. Pete. The Eastern
Counties Railway Company also acted with the greatest
liberality, and made the requisite arrangements for the
comfortable conveyance of the club. On Monday morning
the members, with their wives, started from Norwich by a
special train, and through the exertions of Mr. Roney
they were brought to the Bishopsgate station sufficiently
early—having performed the journey in six hours and
a half—to allow of their visiting the Zoological Gardens
in the afternoon, the greater part of one day which
would otherwise have been lost. Mr. Sultzer had pre-
viously been to London and secured lodgings for the
whole party, and during the week they havo visited the
Exhibition and other objects of interest in London.
Mr. Peto having been made acquainted with the visit,
that gentleman having always evinced the deepest in-
interest in the welfare of the labouring classes, and taken
every opportunity of promoting the prosperity of a city
with which he is so intimately connected, at once offered
to treat the men to a dinner. It is needless to say the
offer was at once accepted, rind'yesterdav the dinner;took
place at the Royal Pavilion Hotel, North Woolwich, at
the terminus cf the North Woolwich branch of the
Eastern Counties Railway.

The party was conveyed there by the railway com-
pany, and arrived about eleven o'clock. Mr. Peto had
previously obtained the permission of the proper autho-
rities for them to visit the public works at Woolwich,
and shortly after their arrival they formed into proces-
sion end, accompanied by a band of music and banners,
they visited the Arsenal, the Dockyard, &c.
Shortly before five o'clock the party returned to the
Pavilion Hotel, when dinner was served. Mr. Pete
presided, and was surrounded by the Mayor and Sheriff
of Norwich, Mr. Geach, M.P. for Coventry, Mr. Kin-
nard, Mr. Sultzer, Mr.J.O.Teylor, and Mr. Roney (who
by his exertions contributed greatly to the comfort of
the men).
After the removal of the cloth, the President proposed
the usual loyal and patriotic toaste, which were re-
sponded to enthusiastically. The wives of the workmen,
who had dined in a room below stairs, were then intro-
duced, and took their seats by the sides of their husbands
amidst much applause; and a very excellent dessert
having been placed upon the table,
The PRESIDENT roes, and in highly complimentary
terms, proposed the health of the Mayor of Norwich.—
(Drank with loud cheers.)
The MAYOR of Nonwecia, who was evidently not in
robust health, briefly responded to the toast.
The PRESIDENT next gave the health of the Sheriff of
Norwich, Edward Blakeley, Esq.' one of tlie , distiu
guished exhibitors in the Great Exhibition.---t(Drank
with applause.)
The SHERIFF of NORWICH responded to the toast.
Ho said they had all met round that festive
board, gratified), with the attention which had
been bestowed upon them, and by the hospitality
that had been exhibited towards them. The pleasure
which they experienced upon that occasion was one
which they had not expected a few weeks back. The
object of himself and his fellow-citizens in visiting the
Exhibition was to improve themselves. The citizens of
Norwich had hear 4 of the wonders which were to be seen
at the Exhibition, and of the noble illustrations of hu-
man skill and human progress which it afforded, and
they came forward in a manner which did; them credit
and formed themselves into an association, each patting
by a portion of his earnings in order that they might be
enabled to see the wonders which this great Exposition
contained. He had had the honour of going round the
Exhibition with his neighbours—the artizans of Nor-
wich—and he could not but be delighted with the excel-
lent remarks which they made touching the manufac-
tures of this and other countries. lie felt that
the Queen and Prince Albert intended that
this Exhibition would have the effect of ad-
vancing the people of this country, and they would not be
disappointed. When the proposal was first mentioned
to him ho had hailed it with delight, because ho be-
lieved that this country would stand well with the na-
tions of the world; and he felt likewise that Norwich,
which had stood in a prominent position for centuries
as regarded its manufactures, would not allow itself to
be beaten in this contest of love and of noble emulation.
Although he was proud of his country, and proud of
the city of Norwich, he could yet admire the produc-
tions of other countries, and much ho found amongst
them to admire; but he believed that with the spirit of
union which they found to exist that day England need
not tear as to the result cf the contest. England never
feared foreign nations in war, and she need not fear
them in this contest of peace.--(Loud cheers.)
EDWARD WILLETT, Esq., an extensive manufacturer,
of Norwich, in eulogistic terms proposed the health of
the President, S. M. Peto, Esq., which was drank with
three times three, and one cheer more, reiterated again
and again.
The PRESIDENT on rising to respond to the
toast was loudly cheered. When silence had been
obtained ho Laid—that he could not but feel highly gra-
tified by the manner in which his good and long-tried
friend Mr. Willett had proposed his health, and the
warm and affectiorate manner in which the company
had received it. He should not occupy their time by
speaking of himself, but would for a few minutes refer
to one or two points to which he was anxious to draw
their attention. A great moral lesson he considered
was to be learnt from the Exhibition which they had had
the opportunity of viewing. In the first place it should
teach them ever to depend upon themselves. To him
the greatest glory of the Exhibition was that it had not
been supported by the Government as such—that, it did
not depend for its success upon the Load cheers—b)utwtrherate
it had emanated from the people._(
the Exhibition simply a pattern of that which,,,t
t
seen in a neighbouring country every five years heev had
should
have taken little interest in it; bat the firs timee
heard it mentioned, which was by the Piince Consort,
on an occasion when he attended the distribution of the
prizes awarded by the Society of Arts, his heart
thrilled with pleaaure, and especially that the proposi-
tion should come from the Consort of their beloved So-
vereign. He felt that .as it was to be thrown upon the
sympathies of the nation, it never could fail.—(Cheers.)
How it had succeeded they could all feel better than ho
could express. He had gone day after day into the
transept, and ho had watched the effect which the first
view of it presented upon people who had not seen it be-
fore, and the wonder and amazement which they dis-
played had rejoiced him. He could not but feel that
this was an era in our history, and a glorious era in
the annals of cur country.— (Cheers.) It would show
to foreign nations that our beloved Queen trusted not in
the protection of her army or in the strength of her
military power, but that she felt her throne was most
secure in the sympathies and affections of her people,
and that the people themselves were happy in the sym-
pathy and loving affection of their Queen.—(Loud
cheers.) While they were thus bound together by the
strong bond of mutual sympathy and regard—the
Crown with the people and the people with the Crowu—
, the people respecting the institutions of their
country, although desiring that their country should
progress onward with that steady movement which had
developed her powers, and enabled her to attain her
present eminence—n path which had placed her in the
glorious position which she now enjoyed—they would
show to the nations of the earth that, not in the rapid
change, not in violent revolution, but cf onward pro-
gress—steady, practical progress—they trusted for the
permanence of their institutions, the security and the
happiness of their homes, and the advancement of their
posterity.—(Loud cheers.) He need not point out to
them that which they must themselves have observed in
the Exhibition. On viewing the manufactures of Nor-
wich they found that they were marked with the names
of the respective firms from which they had come, and
some of the members of these firms they had the plea-
sure of seeing in the room ;—these it was seen was the
result of individual exertion; but on looking at the con-
tributions of other countries, what did they find? Go
to Russia, they had rich china emanating from the Em-
peror—splendid malachite doors emanating fd"Thaat
prince. Go to France, and they
nearly all her wealth had been sent by thofannisthhof
Commerce. They had not yet learnt that happy
honoured the indi-
vidual G-
overnment—while self-reliance—that independence hfhgo
the people
to preserve. their which was our source of prosperity; for while h people
of England loved their Queen and
they desired
was yet another lessen to be
insti-
tutions, they desired to depend upon themselves.—
that the foun-
dation cheers.) There
and that was
learnt
o f their
r Exhibition,
prosperity—that which made their
country so great—was their manufactures and their
commerce. His worthy friend the Sheriff of Norwich
had stated, that they did not fear the competition of the
world,
he (Mr. Peto) felt sure that after having
seen c
had seen, and admired the works of other
al
nthdey
countries as they deserved—having examined them with
the critical eye of the practical designer and workman,
they would return home with tastes improved, and with
a determination to excel anything they had hitherto pro-
duced. And he was equally aura of this, that notwithatund-
