PARIS, OCT. 31.
The Moniteur, in itsbulletin of to-day, makes the
following announcement :

" The controversy now being carried on between
several journals might have the effect of leading the
public to form wrong ideas respecting the policy of
the Emperor in regard to certain changes to be
effected in the internal constitution of the Empire.
" The contents of certain newspapers would suf-
fice to show that the Government remains free from
all responsibility (solidarite) on account of publica-
tions which are only self-inspired, and engage no
other responsibility but their own.

" In order to at once cut short all false commen-
taries, we call attention to the fact that the Moni-
teur is the sole organ of the policy of the Govern-
ment, and that no semi-official journal exists in
France."

TURIN, OCT. 30.

of the Church, but will take severe measures if
the clergy continue to attack the laws and insti-
tutions of the country and endeavour to disturb
public order."
