teur du Soir inserted as a first pAragraph, and the Patrie
as a communicated article." [ Clic Opinion Publique is
here in error—the Petrie did not give it with the word
communiqué attached to it.] "We have still by us the
envelope of the communication, with the seal of the
Foreign office, and bearing the imprint as coming from
the Cabinet of the Ministry, and it was impossible for
us to state an article as extracted from the Napoleon, of
the existence of which we were not aware, which was
transmitted to us by the Cabinet. A verbal request did
not appear to us, therefore, sufficient, and we are not
called on to repair the blunders which are committed
in Paris."

Another Legitimatist organ, the Union, also received
the note. It says—
" This note, which was given in two of the evening
journals, was forwarded to us under the corer of the
Ministry of Foreig❑ Affairs with the word communique
In the evening a person who declared himself to be an
employe of the Cabinet, came and informed us that the
note had been sent without the consent of the ➢linister,
and that we were requested to consider the note as not
having been sent."

It is supposed that the Cabinet will have a good
majority, as Count MOLE and the Duc DE BROGLIE
are working to counteract the influence of M. TRIERS.
It is, however, very evident that the great and com-
pact majority of which the reactionaries were wont to
boast is completely broken up.
A new weekly journal, entitled the Napoleon, and
said to be the official organ of the PRESIDENT of the
Republic, appeared on Sunday. From it we ex-
tract the following remarkable paragraph :
" In consequence of the smallness of the majority
by which some recent measures of the Government
have been carried certain journals, with regard to
whose intentions we may be permitted to doubt,
advise the Ministers to retire. They contend, arguing
from certain customs of the past, that after expe-
riencing such checks, Ministers who have any feelings
of self-respect can no longer continue in the direc-
tion of affairs.

" These journals are ignorant, or:reign:tobe ignorant
of what must be henceforth the position of the re-
sponsible Chief of the Executive Power. In the new
order of things, so long as the Ministers have the
confidence of the President, they experience no
check. Once for all we warn the obstinate defenders
of the old constitutional routine, that the chief of the
state will retain his Ministry in spite of all jealous
attacks and that the deplorable fact of Ministerial
instability will no longer be reproduced at the bidding
of Parliamentary ambition."
It is said that Marshal MARMONT arrived in Paris
on Sunday.
General TITTE is about to proceed from Brest, on
a tour of inspection, to the French colonies in the
West Indies, and on the West Coast of Africa.
The .11foniteur publishes a decree, appointing M.
PAUL DE BOURGOING Ambassador to the Court of
Spain.
It is said that some grave disorders have broken
out in a regiment of cavalry at Valenciennes.
General LATOESTINE has been dispatched from Paris
to make an inquiry into the circumstances at-
tending it.
One of the editors of the Reforme, a Russian, who
has resided in France for many years, has been ordered
to quit Paris in 48 hours.
The Assembly met yesterday, at three o'clock.
M. Baroche, Vice President, took the chair.
After the Secretary had read the minutes of the pre.
ceding sitting,
M. Laussat ascended the tribune, and complained of
an omission in the report. On Saturday, when M. Thiers
defied any Member of the Assembly to proolaim himself
the partisan of the treaty concluded by Admiral Le
Predour, he had risen and declared that he was ready to
accept it. The fact, he thought, should have been no-
ticed by the secretary.
A ballot next commenced for the election of the
President of the Assembly, which gave the following
result:—
Voters ...
Absolute majority ...

... 595
... 298
Votes.
... 377
... 156

M. Dupin obtained ...
M. Michel de Bourgea
M. Dufaure ... ...
M. Odillon Barrot ...
M. Darn ... ...

M. Dupin having obtained more than the required
majority, was proclaimed President for the three en-
suing months.
The Assembly next resumed the adjourned discussion
on the affairs of the River Plate.

M. Granier moved the following amendment:—" The
Legislative Assembly invites the President of the Re-
public to give notice to • the Government of Monte
Video of the cessation of the treaty of the 12th June,
1848, and to inform it that, three months after that
notification, the subsidy shall cease to be paid by France.
The Legislative Assembly, moreover, invites the Presi-
dent of the Republic to adopt the measures necessary
for the efficacious protection of our countrymen and of
French interests on the banks of the River Plate."

M. Granier developed his amendment amidst the noise
of private conversation.
The amendment was next put from the chair, and
rejected.
Another amendment was presented by M. de Rance
to this effect—" Whereas the treaty of Admiral Le
Predour has not been submitted to • the ratification of
the National Assembly; whereas the Government de-
clares that it intend: to continue the negotiations, with
a view to guarantee the honour and interests of the Re-
pu lie, and that in all cases our countrymen shall be
seriously protected against the contingencies which
might menace them on the banks of La Plata, the As-
sembly passes to the order of the day."
Several other amendments were next read by the
President, but the Assembly having decided that the
discussion should open first on that of M. de Rana, the
latter rose and said that the speech delivered by M.
Rouher on Saturday clearly indicated the intentions of
the Government. The Minister had formally declared
against the ratification of the treaty and the abandon-
ment of Monte Video, and the Assembly he trusted
would see the necessity of leaving the Cabinet its full
liberty of action.
M. Daru, in the name of the Committee, declared
against the amendment and all the others, and called on

anybody, even at the risk of its members being charged
with personal ambition, as asserted in two semi-official
the sacrifice beenifi Thecethoe
journals.
Here the Minister for Foreign Affairs rose and stated
that the article alluded to had emanated from his mi-
nistry, but without his knowledge or participation.
The moment he heard of its existence he hastened to
disown it.
M. Darn again insisted on the adoption of the resolu-
tion of the Committee, which requires the executive
power to support the negotiations it intended to open by
a force sufficient to insure their success, and protect the
French residents at Monte Video.
The Minister of Justice, in the name of the Cabinet,
adhered to the amendment of M. de Rano& Twenty
Members having demanded for a division, a ballot com-
menced, which was still proceeding at post hour.
M. Francisque Bouvet had presented the following
amendment :
" The National Assembly, anxious to prove to the
world that the French Republic places right and intelli-
gence above measures of action, particularly in the case
of a rival inferior in power, decrees—' The executive
power is invited to propose to the Governments of
Great Britain and the United States, to regulate, in
conjunction with France, the affairs of the Plata.
The three powers shall send to the spot each three
commissioners, invested with full powers to adjust,
agreeably to the law of nations and the rules of equity,
the pending differences between the different states of
that part of the American continent. With a view to
ensure their mutual independence, and the peace claimed
by the wants of trade, the National Assembly moreover
invites the executive power to send without delay a
sufficient force to protect our countrymen, and to act in
the name of France alone, in the event of the refusal of
Great Britain and the United States to join in a com-
mon intervention.'"
The Mountain also proposed an amendment, signed
by Messrs. Cholat, Jules Fevre, and Duch. It was as
follows:
" Art. 1. Previous to all negotiation the French En-
voy shall order General Oribe to raise the siege of Monte
Video and remove his camp to the right bank of the
river Santa Lucia.
" Art. 2. Should General Oribe refuse to accede to
those preliminaries, the French negotiator is authorized
to employ force to relieve Monte Video and cause the
independence of the Republic of the Uruguay to be
respected."
The National Assembly afterwards adopted the
amendment of M. de Ranch, by a majority of 338 to 300.
The first article of the Bill, granting an extraordinary
credit of 1,800,000 f. to the Government, to pay the
subsidy due to Monte Video was afterwards voted, as
well as the two remaining articles, without any dis-
cussion. The whole Bill was next adopted by 496 to 88.
General Bedeau was re-elected Vice-President by
382 votes. M. Leon Faucher obtained 66, and M.
GithY 12.
