CHAMBER OF DEPUTIES, Nov. 10.

The order of the day was the continuation of the discussion relative
to the press. Yesterday Al. Benjamin Constant proposed to grant a
delay of two months to the new papers, in order that they may furnish
their,eattlionnextext. After some preliminary discussion, M. Lafitts,
Ali:lister of the Finances, spoke as follows
One of the most remarkable characters of the representative go-
vernment into oblige every man to come forth and speak candidly in
presence of the country, so as to let his intentions, conduct, and ma
tires be known by all. It is also one of the most distinguishing cha-
racteristics of our times to be able, as was the case yesterday, to think
differently and act differently, without losing any title to both esteem
and consideration. Yesterday, some explanations were given—
but no attack wsa made. Truth gained by discussion, and
yet the lenient disposition of each :man to his neighbour did
not give way to sentiments of rancour. Ourselves members
of the late administration, we must afford some explanations concerning
our line of conduct : we shall be concise and clear. Our differences of
opinion arose not, as might have been supposed, from a system of anar-
chy, and from a system of preservation. No, gentlemen, this was not
the case. Every member of the council was perfectly aware that order
ought to be the constant companion of liberty,—that the rigorous exc.
cution of the laws is indispensable until they are reformed. Every one
was alive to the experience of 1789,—every one knew that the revolu-
tion of 1830 ought not to IF beyond certain limits,—that Europe was
to be forced to conciliation by the alliance on our pan of dignity and.
moderation. We all agreed on these different points, because the mem
ben of the council werefall men of sense and prudence. But in our opi.
nions on the manner of appreciating and directing the revolution of 11130,
we did not think that it was so soon to degenerate into anarchy, that
it became necessary to take precautions against its result, and
show towards it any feeling of distrust and hostility. But, except
this general disposition, no fundamental difference of system divided the
members of the late Cabinet. In this situation of affairs the reins
of power tempted no one. At a later period numerous competitors will
struggle to seise them, for we hope that France will soon enjoy profound
peace and tranquillity. But at present it is rather a source of fear than
pleasure to govern. Each party offered to maintain the direction of
affairs. We perfectly agreed on the basis of the system,--we only dif.
freed in the more or less confidence entertained on each side. Both en-
deavoured to seise the government. I repeat that every one pressed
on to sine it, but we were told also, gentlemen, that the best
condition, the best title to power, was confidence in the revolution.
Perhaps their opinion was the best—perhaps it would have been
better, in order to direct and understand it well, it would
have been better not to entertain any apprehension against
it. Perhaps the feeling of order and justice, which are the true
maxims of a government, might have become more popular under the
influence of certain names than of others. We are not, certainly pre-
sumptuous enough to think that ours were those names, but we have
been obliged to think It, since we have been called to the direction of at.
fairs, being repeatedly told that we could do more good than others.
We regretted sincerely that such should be the case, but we have re.
:mined near the Mil/like true and faithful subjects. Notwithstanding
our conviction of the contrary,, it was said that we alone could ensure
the triumph of order ; we have been forced to try our strength at
our own risk and peril. Well, gen apemen, we accept this. perilous
situation : we shall fulfil It with courage and resolution. Order and li-
berty will certainly triumph ; the laws shall be executed; they shall
never cease to be executed until they are legally reformed by your de-
cision, and, when you shall deem it necessary. We shall accomplish the ,
duty which has been imposed on us. The best guarantees we can offer
are the confidence of the King, our own union, and the support dell
good citizens. (Marks of adhesion.) We particularly reckon upon your
support, gentlemen, because you are awa re that it is not sufficient to
wish that the Government be strong and firm, it is nnees••ey to join
your efforts, by giving the support of the national representatives.—
Gentlemen, 1 felt It necessary to enter into these brief explanations in
the mane don' colleagues. I hope that they will be sufficient to jrnify
as far as an equitable reserve will allow, the part which each of us has
acted in the late events."

The question wu then put relative to the whole of the law.

Number of votes, 237. For the law, 142. Agsbut, 92.

A very ardent discussion then took place relative to the ladepemlettoe
of the members of the Chamber, in consequence of M. Lameth having
been summoned before a tribunal, without affording any motive foe the
summons.
