SITTING OF DF.C. 4.

M. Dupin, ten., took his seat at 20 minutes past one,
at which hour there were not 20 deputies in the Chamber.
During the reading of the proces verbal M. Eusebe
Salverte ascended the steps leading to the President's
chair, and held a long conversation with N. Dupin, in
which the latter appeared to be remonstrating with him
with considerable energy. _ _

After the proces verbal had been adopted, the President
read the following answer given by the King to the ad.
dress of the Chamber :

in a mass to felicitate me, affect me very deeply. Sur-
rounded by five sons, whom I will leave after me to France
to defend her, I fear very little the criminal attempts of
factions. All my wishes are for the liberty, prosperity,
and glory of France. Those wishes are also yours. It
is with perfect sincerity that my Government labours to
accomplish those objects, and it is only by your aid that it
can so labour with effect. lam truly happy to find tha'
you concur in those views. That concurrence is the
surest proof that they have their origin in wisdom. The
harmony which happily exists between the different
branches of the State will secure the preservation of order
and the laws, impart an irresistible impulse to our prospe-
rity, and inspire Europe with that sense of security which
is the basis of general peace. We shall soon see our
soldiers, our children, return with honour to their country,
and bring back from the banks of the Scheldt a new
pledge of the preservation of peace. That day, which we
await with impatience, and which cannot be remote, will
give the surest and most splendid demonstration of the
wisdom of the system which we support together with so
much perseverance. I thank you once more for the aid
you grant to my Government, is assisting me to accom-
plish the wishes of France and secure her destinies."
After the address was read, M. Dupin quitted the chair,
which was occupied by M. Etienne, one of the Vice-Presi-
dents. Messrs. Thiers, Humann, and Barthe were on the
Ministers' bench.

M. Alex. Gouin brought forward a proposition for an
extension of the sinking fund. The Chamber decided that
he should be heard in support of it, after M. Devaux's pro-
position on the responsibility of Ministers.
General Demarcay was then called to the tribune to de-
velop the proposition which he had, brought forward in a

preceding sitting. It consists in appointing a sepasti
Committee to examine each part of the budget, instead
referring the whole to one committee, as beretofore....4
course which he conceived would tend materially to further
the minute and correct examination of the accounts of the
different branches of the Admini.tration.

The Minister of Finances and M Pelet de la Loa re or
posed the proposition, as likely, to create confusioo
in the accounts of the different bepartidefit§, and give rig°
to delay in examining the budget than to produce MI
useful effect.

M. de Tracy supported the views of General Dernarcsio
and urged the necessity of a reore severe and accurate es'
mination of the public accounts.

AFFAIR OF HONOUR BETWEEN MRA
O'CONNELL AND MR. BLENNERHASSETI

TR:A LEE, DEC. I.—A meeting took place yesterd_All
morning, between A. Blennerhassett, Esq., of Bally
and M. O'Connell, Esq., M.P. The circumetaneee
it 1;
far as they have transpired, are as follow :—Thullt
evening, Mr. M. O'Connell drove to Mr. Blennerhasseti-t
residence (Mrs. B. being that day confined). Mr. .13.,11.°„;
having been at home, he left a letter desiring to see 1/5
on particular business. Mr. Blennerhassett, knowing g";
Mr. O'Connell could have no business with him eaceP
to insult him, thought the less delay the better, and
mediately apprised him that he would be at Benner
Hotel at eight that evening. At the appointed boa ,
O'Connell called, with two friends ; and, having enter'h
the room where Mr. Blennerhassett was seated, said
understood that Mr. Blennerhassett had been canvacil7,'
voters in favour of Sir E. Denny, who had promised 'di;
(Mr. O'C.) their support, and that no other gentlennol
Kerry would do so. Mr. Blennerhaasett replied, thsidi
had canvassed voters who had promised to support if
M. O'Connell, under the impression that Sir E. _
at
would not be a candidate, and that nothing should Prevltt
him from continuing to canvass them. Mr. Blennerbew-,
proceeded to say that Mr. M. O'Connell and his poi!!
held out threats, and tried to intimidate voters that.
(Mr. B.) had promised to protect, and he was deterrelnr;
to aff.rd them protection so long as be lived. He said
knew Mr. O'Connell's object was to insult him, and is ~,
visit had made Mrs. B. acquainted with his intentions, ",..
(Mr. B.) was ready to meet Mr. M. O'Connell ;
two minutes in the long room of the hotel. Mr'
O'Connell appeared very much agitated, and left the o°l,
without saying anything more. In about two hours site
however, he returned, and said to Mr. Blennerbasse_..,4tt''
" I stated before that you were the only gentleman in _.
that would act as you have done-4 now say no g;1
denten would do so." Mr. Blennerhaasett innvet
ately referred Mr. O'Connell to a friend, and the P.re"
minaries being arranged, the parties met at nine
and after exchanging three shots without effect, the eri°4,
pals were taken off the ground by their friends. 'he
Blennerhaasett was accompanied to the ground by
leading gentry of the county, all of whom noncl!rd
praising the promptitude and steadiness which be ell°
throughout the transaction. Sir Edward Denny's 1110
for the borough is certain, and unleas the great intiss
nt
enact the part of a well-bred dog, and walk quiedlf„g
of the county, he will be turned out. The great Jew-st
interests in the county have called on Mr. Blennerhstc_ej
to come forward as a candidate, but this he has dechw;
doing. Kerry will, however, return a Conservaties.
