Though nothing of much Importance has taken
place in our capital, since my last letter to the
Herald, there many odd items which, when
looked at with magnifying glass, reveal to the
eyes of an observer an immense danger for the fu-
ture Of our government The stormy debates of
the Legislative Assembly, the whereabouts of the
President, the shameful revelations Of states
mems bargains, everything shows that our epoch is
similar to that of the Roman empire, and that, in-
stead Of being in progress, we a decline.
The sentence against M. FORBADE, the publisher
of the Messenger de ASSembiee, has been the cause
of much scandal, account of the publication of
certain documents trusted into the hands of this
gentlemen, which he published for his defence.
Among the individuals named by Nj. earlier, in
his written notes, was certain Mr.. L., repre-
sentative, who was only mentioned by his initial,
and that very thing exacted much in luiry in the
Legislative Assembly. NM. Lemallier and La
RABBIT, two Of its members, who had taken for them
the accusation of Mr.. earlier, have begun a law
suit against the Chief Of Police, and no one can
tell what will be the issue of all this hubbub
Though NJ. earlier has called the documents
trusted to M. FORBADE a series of notes infO,nees
some jokers asserted that it really entire list
Of notes informess. Every one thinks tina. the be-
tTayal Of NJ. FORBADE will force NJ. earlier to send
in his resignation
The law on the National Guard was voted on
Friday last, by 429 votes against 235, despite the
violent struggle Of the In ountaneers It is certain
that with the new law the National Guard is nearly
subdued to the wishes Of the government and this,
Of course, was not to be accepted cooy by the red
republican party. Nj. Changarnier, who took
principal part in this violent debate, uttered the
wisest speech ever made in the Assembly, and was
much appreciated by all those who were present.
Another law, which had for object to prorogate
the powers OF the general councils of the munich
Iality, was also voted ON Saturday last, against the
wishes ofthe left of the Assembly. And here it ia
well to remark, that whenever there is a law which
has for its object TO render the country peace
full, the montsgnards have always objection
against il.
The debates Of yesterday assumed also one of
the most violent character. The pretext Of this
political tempest, war the demand made by the 20.
vernment to confer upon the Project of Lyons, the
same powers which are given to the Project Of
Police Of Paris. To the quiet speeches of NJ Barot
and Leon Faucher, the " mountaineer," NJ. Pei
lester responded with much violence, and made
bold glorlncatlOn OF Inc instruction, which has
placed the right of the musket side to side will
the right to labor. Unfortunately for the dignity
Of the Chamber, NJ. Faucher replied to the orator,
that his speech was abominable, and then the up
rear began. Never, even in the bloodest days Of
the National Convention Of 1873, anything as I'M
Parliamentary had taken place. Despite the scene
Of passion, the law voted, and the sitting ended
amidst the shouts Of the whole Assembly.
The revision of the constitution still agitates the
whole country and in the fear that the vote will not
be promptly answered TO BY the National Assembly,
understand that plot has been made to entice
every county in France Tin which there are $3.50
70 send delegates to Paris in order TO impose upon
the Assembly decisive order. These delegates
would take to the speaker petition which would
leave 10 our represents ton but two to settle
the question: either to defer tine prorogaton ofpower
to the President, or to jump out by the windows.
his lot must only be considered as one of the
means thought Of by the partizans Of the Elysee;
and il is said that the military reviews in the Ccsa
rian style will be still employed by the President.
The hrst OF these Iaisdes will take place on Satur
day Lext, in the champ dc Mars; the second
Tuesday, 9th inst; the third on Thursday, 18th;
and the last, (not the least, Ierhaps) on Saturday
18th, at Versailles, where all the troops residing In
ersaiilos ard st. Cermain will be reyie wed in the
most gorgeous style Well What Of it This
may do, and cause some excitement, but | do not
think it will amount 20 much
In the meantime the newspapers belonging to the
ultra republican party, have published reports that

The news received from Portugal is not Of much

AS for the Spanish Senate, which, in its sitting OF
June 10Th, spoke Of interfering with Portugal, it
must remember the well known motto, mind
your own business" The Portuguese government
was bargaining for q loan with the bsuk but there
were many objections made to the proposal by the
directors Of that institution.
