Gil OF State when there appeared-for referring it,
SUI; against it, 3O3; majority against the Church
party 4. During the discussion a disagreeabe in
cident occurred. Owing to some marks of impa-
tence expressed loudly in the gallery set apart for

Assembly considered it his duty to order the at
PENDANTS to instantly close the gallery and the edi
tors were obliged to withdraw. The following pro-
test has, in consequence, been published in the Paris
Journalist

OF transition than any thing cse and il Is now said
that there are 50 many questions which they
cannot agree, that their DAYS are counted For
instance, M Fould Is represented advocating
the paramount necessity of retaining in the budget
of receipts the impost liquors. While the ma lori
ty Of the cabinet, and the President himself are
disposed to abandon il concession to the rural
districts so many persons, however, are interested
in attacking ministry which is yet in its infancy,
that all specuations such subject should be re-
ceived with good deal of reserve"
