THE FRENCH REPUBLIC.

We have received the Paris journals of yesterday.
These journals all comment upon the dismissal of
General NEUMAYER, and upon the proceedings on
Tuesday of the Council of Permanence. The Bulletin
de Paris thus reports the proceedings of the Com-
mittee of Permanence :

"The members of the committee present were very
numerous; M. Mol6, who has returned to Paris from
Champlatreux, was in attendance, as well as M. Odilon
Barrot. The discussions were very animated, but at-
tended with no result, owing, it is said, to the concilia-
tory disposition of some of the influential members of
the committee. The question of the immediate convoca-
tion of the Assembly was rejected, as was expected.
The Minister of War had not been requested to attend."
The Committee took its tone from General CHAN-
GARNIER, who proposed that, as the regular sitting
would take place on Thursday, the Minister of War
should be summoned for that day, and asked whether
the appointment of General NEUMAYER to the com-
mand at Rennes was to be considered as a reward or
as a punishment; if as a reward, he was to be
asked for what action the reward had been
conferred; and if as a punishment, what crime
the General had committed ? It is said
that a midnight meeting of the Society of the 10th
December was held on Monday night, at which the
most outrageous propositions were brought forward.
A plan wa., it is said, proposed to get rid of the
leaders of the Assembly, and to reduce to practice
M. Romtne's theory of Csesarism. The Minister of
the Interior, M. BAROCHE, is summoned to give ex-
planations on the subject, and will be asked
whether he is prepared to dissolve the society. The
Bulletin de Paris gives the following, which may be
considered as the official version of the causes which
led to the removal of General NEUMAYER
" The incident which led to the late act of the Presi-
dential power as far as regards the commandant of the
Ist military division was as follows:—' The post of
honour called that of l'Echelle, at the Tuileries, was
occupied by the National Guards. The day before yes-
terday, at the moment of relieving guard, and when the
chief of the post, belonging to the 10th legion, was ready
to give up the place to some of the same force, he saw
come to replace him a company of the Gendarmerie
Mobile, to whom the post of honour of the Echelle had
been assigned. This change could not have taken place
without an order emanating from the staff of the Ist
military
division, and without the responsibility of Gen.
Neumayer being directly engaged in it. It is stated that
the National Guards were much excited by the circum-
stance; that the news of the suppression of one of its
posts of honour had produced a very sad effect on the
different legions, and that there was even a question of
making an energetic remonstrance on the subject at the
Elys63. It is added that the President of the Republic
was completely a stranger to the measure, and that, in
order to offer to the National Guard a fresh proof of his
sincere regard for that force, he decided, although with
regret, to remove the person who had signed the order
for thus displacing the National Guard.'
The same journal states that the Council of Minis-
ters decided unanimously, with the exception of M.
BINEAU, that General NEUMAYER should be appointed
to a superior post.
It is said that when General CHANGARNIER, on
Sunday, asked the PRESIDENT the reason for the re-
moval of General NEUMAYER, the PRESIDENT replied
it was because the troops under his command at Sa-
tory had not cried Vive le President, on which
General CHANGARNIER called his aides-de-camp
to witness the expression of the PRESIDENT, and de-
clared that he considered the removal of General
NEUMAYER as a personal offence to himself.
MM. THIERS, MOLE, and ODILON BARROT have
called on General CHANGARNIER, but have not been
at the Elysee.

The Union and the Assemblee Nationale say that
General NEUMAYER has declined accepting the com-
mand of the 14th and 15th divisions (Rennes and
Nantes), to which he was appointed by the decree
inserted in the Moniteur.

In commenting on these differences the Siecle says
it " cannot blame the PRESIDENT for making use of
the rights which belong to him. even though it should
be to show to the host of the Tuileries that the head
of the Executive Government is at present at the
Elyt6e."
The National expresses itself as follows
Up to this time the Elystis has the beat of the mat-
ter. It has shown resolution, and General Changarnier
has received two checks. Is the chance about to turn?
We know not. The Elyse°, like all people ill-accus-
tomed to conquer, perhaps exaggerates its first success,
and thinks itself master and able to dictate laws.
Yesterday, at three o'clock, it was beaten, and it
required an heroic charge of the council to restore
the advantage to it. To crush General Changarnier
is not difficult; but behind him is the Assembly. Is it
also sure of beating them? The majority, it is true,
docilely voted the dotation. That is some sort of a
pledge, but it must not be too much calculated on. How-
ever this may be, the state of affairs is entangled, a con-
flict is probable, and did we not always reckon on the
God of uncertainty, we would bet that the comedy would
soon receive a tragical denouement. For our parts, as
Republic Ans, what occasion have we- to meddle with
all this? We are not consulted, and our opinion
is not asked. It will be necessary to call France
to the contract: then, but then alone, she will speak, and
then will be seen the value of those calculations of the
ante-chamber, and those intrigues of the palace before
the loudly-expressed will of the nation."
The Moniteur publishes a report addressed to the
Minister of Agriculture and Commerce by M.
PATEN, a member of the Institute, who was commis-
sioned by the Government to visit the manufacturing
establishments near Dublin for carbonizing the turf
raised from the Bog of Allen, and converting it into a
valuable manure. The report approvQs highly of
the system introduced into Ireland, and adds that it
may be applied with great advantage to France,
where there exists several thousand hectares of bog.
