OPINIONS OF THE PARISIAN JOURNALS
ON THE NEW MINISTRY.

The Journal des Debats says—‘‘ The Ministers who

have retired carry with them the esteem and regret of all
men who are devoted to the Monarchy of July. The poli-
tical principle of March 13th never had in the country
more sincere, faithful, or noble representatives. However
great may be our surprise at seeing the names of their suc-
cessors, we shall wait for their acts, in order to judge whe-
ther the system is in danger. It is the system that we
have always defended, and will ever defend."
The Constitutionnel considers it a fortunate circumstance
for the new Ministers to have to follow such men as have

just gone out of office. Public opinion will not overlook
the efforts they may make to repair all the evil done by
their predecessors. They will have many wounds to close,
many ill traditions to efface, many pernicious habits to root
up ; but if they come to affairs with upright intentions, and
a decided and enlightened will to do good, it will be easy
for them to do good, for the support of public opinion will
not fail them, if they cause the Government, that has
gone far in the path of the restoration, to retrace its steps,

and take the address of the Chamber of Deputies for their
programme. We are happy in being able to praise the first
act of the new Ministry—the convocation of the Chambers

for December Ist. It shows that the Cabinet, so far from

Fearing opinion expressed in the most elevated and legal
Form, hastens to meet it, and act under its eyes. It is

said to be the intention of the Ministry to present a law
for an amnesty, at the opening of the session. In declar-

ing a fortnight ago that such would be the only proper way
of inaugurating this great act, at once royal and national,
we little thought that our dearest hope was so near being

_______
The Temps says, " We sincerely congratulate Royalty
For having resisted. intrigues, and for having driven back
to their primitive nullity the men who dared to demand of
their monarch All or nothing.' The Government has at

length got rid of the Doctrinaires, and if eight days of
manoeuvres and struggles have been required for their com-
plete destruction, the country will not regret the interreg-
num, during which they have entirely unmasked themselves
and have carried away their system with themselves. An
Administration is formed in conformity with the Address of
the Chambers, and which will seek its force in the support
of Parliament. Thus the change is complete, the system
and the men are fallen together, and this double result is
more important than is generally supposed. As to the
choice of persons, we think it might have been better ; but
we will not insist on this point, fearing that our regrets
might have been considered as the echo of personal rivality.
The presence of M. Persil in the Cabinet is doubtless an
inconvenience. We did him justice in the contest upon
the question of persons, where alone he showed himself
an honest and disinterested man ; but he who has
prosecuted the press with so much fury, will feel the
necessity of availing himself of the speedy meeting of
the Chambers, to open the Session with a Bill of am-
nesty. On this condition only can he obtain a favourable ver-
dict in the judgment which public opinion will pass upon
him. The Duke de Bassano is a great name—a celebrity
of the empire. The new Ministry will be the restoration
of the Revolution of July. M. Passy is the most real, the
most precious acquisition obtained by the Government in
this ministerial revolution. The high capacity which he is
universally known to possess, the lucidity of his intellect,
and the precision of his ideas, have given him great parlia-
mentary influence, and attach administrative and political
value to his name. The new War Minister, General
Bernard, is an upright man, and of American virtue.
The canals, the iron railways, the strategic roads, and the
" liberty of the press, which be has seen upon so large a
scale in the other hemisphere, will not claim his support
in vain. No person contests the ability, the diplomatic
perspicacity of M. Bresson. M. Charles Dupin is a
scientific speciality, perhaps a little too productive. As
to M. Teste, he is an eloquent speaker. We have
not forgotten his useful labours on bankruptcies, and
on mortgages. He has given hopes to liberty, although
lie has not yet shown himself to be its decided cham-
pion. In conclusion, what is to be thought of this
Ministry ? that it is without force, without the power
of originating measures, that it has not the capacity of
moving spontaneously and energetically. It is evident that
composed as it is almost entirely of new men, and being the
sudden result of a victory on the part of public opinion, it
will find itself rather drawn by that opinion than capable of
leading it. As soon, therefore, as the Chamber has assem-
bled, it should strengthen its bonds with it. We congratu-
late ourselves that the Cabinet contains no traces of those
tendencies to the Restoration, so explicitly proscribed by the
Address. No vestige remains of the aristocratic system,
which is buried with the Doctrinaires. Democracy has
evidently presided at its choice, which is a return towards
the Revolution of July that we are delighted to discover.
Such was the tendency of the Address ; such ought to be,
such will be the motto of the Ministry—Moderation, pro-
bity, and laboriousn application."
The Journal du commerce has the following :—" The
Ministry of the Duke de Bassano, which appears to have
been formed in haste, does not, at the first view, present
an aspect of strength or consistence. Its chief merit is its
being completely purified from all Doctrinary elements ;
but the name of M. Persil gives little confidence to those
who wish to see the commencement of a new era of me-

deration and clemency, which was the point • from which
the formation of the new Cabinet arose. We have no
disposition to judge the organization of the new Cabinet
cx abrupt°. It suffices that we can discover in it an opi-
nion totally distinct from that of October 2, an opinion
more in accordance with the revolution of July, and pro-
bably less hostile to the progress of society, to induce us to
wait, with a favourable disposition, the programme of the
new Administration, and judge it conscientiously by its
acts. The first act we know, that which has called toge-
ther the Chambers a month earlier, is an honourable and
patriotic measure ; and we are thereby warranted in be-
lieving that it is the intention of the new Cabinet to make
its first appearance before the Chambers with a proposition
for an amnesty, in order to mark distinctly its separation
from the Ministry, which has been brought to such a
deplorable end, and thus signalize its views as to making
reparation."
The Courrier Francais says :—" There is a problem
which nobody would have ventured to propose for solution,

from a belief tliat it was impossible, namely—to put an
end to the turpitude of the last eight days by a denouement
still mere deplorable. Yet this has happened. After so
many unavailing efforts to construct a Ministry, nothing
was required but to bring forth something that was not a
Ministry. This condition is accomplished. A Doctrinary
Cabinet would have been odious, but it would have been
significant. Yet the present Cabinet has not that advan-
tage. It is a fortuitous assemblage of names, bound by no
common principle—men strangers to each other by the
acts of their past life, and some are wholly strangers to the
Chambers ; others have no parliamentary importance • and
while a Minister of Foreign Affairs is sought from Berlin,
on a presumption that his sentiments are perfectly in unison
with his colleagues, whom he has never known, Public In-
struction, the lowest of the ministerial departments, is
obliged to be left unprovided for. So fearful was the Go-
vernment of not being able to do anything, that it hastened
to announce the work even in its unfinished state, in order
that it might be said something at least was done. Is it
the Empire, is it the Tiers-Parti, is it the influence of M.
de Talleyrand, that is personified in this Ministry ? No :
it is the Court, the Court alone, which has constructed it.
It represents nothing but the preponderance of the Court :
it is an emanation of the Camarilla. Assuredly never was
a Ministry conceived under more unfavourable auspices.
It brings at its birth but one advantage—the bad reputa-
tion of its predecessors. It can no longer be said that
Government is the object of malevolent attacks—it now
vilifies itself."
The National observes, that the first astonishment at
the composition of the new Cabinet havinc, subsided, con-
jectures have begun. Among many that have been in cir-
culation, it will mention one—namely, that which attributes
to the Duke of Orleans and M. Dupin the formation of a
Ministry borrowed from all epochs and all the shades of
Ministerial possibilities. It is said that the Duke de Bas-
sano's policy is the restoration of the Revolution of July ;
and to give success to this candid hope, he has placed it
under the patronage of the Duke of Orleans. The exist-
ence of this Ministry is already threatened. Wagers have
been laid on 'Change that it will not last a week. The
early convocation of the Chambers, the events which are
preparing in Spain, the crisis in the Levant, and the em-
barrassments of the Commercial Inquiry, are certainly
more than enough to put a Ministry to the proof. For
ourselves, we can only see in this an incontestible proof of
the complete declension of an august personage, and a pre-
sage of the nascent greatness of a young prince.
The Quotidie'zne maintains that the new Ministry has
been entirely formed by Louis Philippe—that it is his own
creation, the work of his own hands—and that it is worthy
of note, as it gives the exact measure of the personal un-
derstanding and political capacity of the King, who did it
in a fit of anger on finding himself seriously compromise&
by the Doctrinaires, whose intrigues exposed, even to the
most short-sighted, the real state of his power, and there-
fore he was obliged to put an end to this interregnum, the
consequences of which, morally speaking, had become
alarming. " Persons (it adds) acquainted with the occur-
rences tat have passed, and how they have passed, assert
that he will never pardon the Doctrinaires for having re-
duced him to the necessity of forming a Ministry in despair,
and covering by an act of spite an anarchy in the Govern-
ment of which there has been no example withiu the last
twenty-five years,
