THE FRENCH REPUBLIC

We have received the Paris journals of yesterday.
The appointment of.the new Legitimatist Committee
has put both Bunapartists and Orleanists on the qui
vice. The Bonapartist Poevoir has the following on
the subject :
".Great rumour among the representatives of the fusion
—we mean the in'rigue! A sort of manifesto of the
Count do Chanibprd, in the shape of a letter, addressed
to M. Berryer, is, it said, about to be published. M. de
Chambord desires, it appears, to efface as much as pos-
sible the impression unfavourable to his interests which
was caused by the circular of M. Bard temy. We are
assured that M. de Chambord his joined to the public
part of his message confidential instructions, from which
the Legitimatists will derive their rule of conduct, not only
as regards general policy, but also with respect to cer-
tain particular questions. Among other things M. de
;;Chtsinbord foresees the case in which the Ministry will
present a demand for a credit for the extraordinary ex-
penses for the Presidency, and he proscribes the absolute
rejecion of it. But what. is most curious is thst, it ap-
pears, the present chief of the night has not all the con-
fidence of the Court of Frohsdoif. The event t f the
message being kept from over prudence has been fore-
men, end another Legitimatist notability, General do Sa;nt
Priest, has received a copy of it as a precaution. Every-
thing, then, causes it to be presumed that the public will
be made acquainted with the document. For our own
put, we shall read it with satisfaction; we are anxious
to know what are the intentions of his Majesty Henry V.
with respect to his faithful Eubjects."
The Orleanists have determined to set up an Oppo-
sition CommWte, of which Marshals SOULT and GE-
RARD, and MM. DUPIN, GUIZOT. and A[OISTALIV.ET,
and possibly P.I. THIERS, will be members. It is
considered probable that Count MOLE will give up
his project of forming a fusion club, es many leeen
of both parties bare declared against a fusion, in
which casts be would probably join the Orleanist
Committee ; the Count DE MONTALEMBERT and seve-
ral other leaders have left Count MOLE'S club. The
Legititnatiat Union has the following on the nomina-
tion of the Legitimatist Committee
In respect, to this subject, we repeat that our politi-
cal friends do not coesti' ute either a directing commit-
tee or a ministry, d that the herds of mutual esteem
and great confor-nifty of principles alone form these
me: tinge, at which their line of conduct on particular
questions is deliberated upon, reserving to all a perfect
independence of iudgrnent and action."
