coming election. Beginning with the Min
isters OF the moment, do not know single
partisan Of Louis Bonaparte whose attach

IN the National Assembly or out Of it. When
he was chosen, the Monarchists Intentional
ly deceived the peasants by promises which
he could no keep. They have aimed to

ception, universal as il was The Club of
the Rue de Poitiers is for Monarchical re-
storation, and even for the restoration Of
Henry v. There is no doubt on this sub
ject; Henry V. is all the nearer to be putting
upon us because Napoleon cannot last. II
is to be seen, however, whether some new
and terrible catastrophe of violence will not
come in to derange the plans of the intrigu-
ers. For me the most serious indication
consists in the fact that the French nation,
the most frank, the most free and active in
its character, is embarrassed, mired in this
sink OF political corruption. In one way or
another, it cannot be long before we escape
from so unnatural situation
Beside these plots and intrigues, there is
nothing but Socialism, which has become for
the masses what it has from the first been
for its apostles, a religion. Do not suppose
that the sole organs Of Socialism are the
People ana the Democratic Pacifque, nor
yet the Reforme, which commences to stam-
mer out the new doctrines. A new party
has arisen in the bosom Of the Moderates,
of which Messrs. Bllault, Dufaure, (men
of the first talents and highest charactsr,)
and the Club Of the Palais National are the
Political Representatives. This party has

The Democratic party is now organizing
its central committee for the election. Each
of the fourte m ACCOMPLISHMENTS Of the Seine

examination Of the candidates and the form

pie Since the beginning Of the present
week, the labors oil the committee have been
going in with more activity than anything
else in our internal politics
Socialism begins to gain all over the coun-
try. The proposition to repay to the smaller
land-hoders the indemnity of thousand
millions OF francs granted to the refugees of
the old Revolution has been brought forward
just at the right time to cross the intrigues Of
the Legitimates, whose power lies chiefly
among our peasants.

Proudhon has just been condemned by

The universal opinion was that above all
things the enterprise ought not to suffer in

and act accordingly, and at any rate can
assure you that the Bank will 90 on. It's
now organizing seventeen new Industrial
Associations.
