lowing ministry: Fould, Finances: Baroche,
Foreign Affairs; Rouher, Justice: Chasseloupe
Iaubat, Marine Leon Faucher, Interior; Buffet,
Commerce; Crouseilhes, Public Instruction.
Magne and Random retain the Ministry of Pub.
lie Works and War. Ia the Assembly, M Leon
Faucher made vague declaration, which was
received with an icy silence. Saint Beuve pro-
posed the renovation of the vote of structure of
the 18th January. The order of the day, pure
and simple, was, however, adopted by 327
against 275. II does not appear from this that
the new cabinet has any decided policy, or that
it would be likely to be permanent The AS
| semby, by passing to the order of the day, de.
clared its want of confidence in that ministry.
A telegraphic despatch gives this account OF
the affair:
M Leon Faucher, Minister of the Interior,
read the ministerial programme, which is very
short.
NJ. st. Beuve moved that the Assembly adopt
an order of the day, in the following terms:
The Assembly persists in its order of the day
| Of the 18th of January, which is in the terms
| following:
The Assembly declares its want of confidence
in the ministry, and passes to the order of the
day. The order of the day, pure and simple,
having been demanded, a division took place,
when there appeared for the order of the day,
pure and simple, BIT, against il 275; majority
| for the order, l02
The Morning Post gives the numbers as fol-
lows: For the motion 327, against 275 MAORI
| ty in favor Of the order, 81.
| TIE Daily Neios also reports the majority
as 81.
The new ministry is already threatened with
opposition by the journals of the monarchst
party.

The following is literal translation of the
French protest against the admission of the non.
German States of Austria into the Bund Of the
date of the 23d February:
| To NJ d. ANDRE, Envoy AT DREsDEs.-The
government of the republic had entertained the
hope that your friendly and moderate represen-
tatons against the incorporation of all the Aus.
TRAN provinces into the German Bund world
have been taken into serious consideration. The
last intelligence, however, which we have re-
, ceived from many quarters, as also the direct
communications we have received from the i'm
perial government, give rise to the apprehension
that there is purpose to proceed further, and
that under the specious pretext Of increasing
the efficiency Of the confederation against revo.
luton, il has been determined to substitute for
the confederation created by the Vienna treaty,
in order to preserve a balance Of power in Eu-
rope, another and very different confederation,
whereby that balance viii be entirely destroyed.
The government of the republic being deter
mined beforehand not to accept Of such an in
novation, feels itself bound to declare that If II
should be effected without its consent, and
without that Of all the parties to the federal act
Of Vienna, il will see therein fragrant violation
of treaties.
Your object In making this declaration will
be to free the government Of the republic from
the responsibility of the dangers to which such
measure would expose the peace Of Germany,
and probably Of all Europe, earlier perhaps than
may be supposed. At time when social order
is threatened by so many perils, we could not,
without deep pain, see those who are most
Thoroughly convinced of the necessity Of unit
ing all governments, set insurmonntable OBJ
stacles in the way Of this union, and break down
the barrier which the respect for international
rights still opposes to the desperate attempts Of
the enemies Of order and Of peace.
The Austrian government has imposed an in
come tax on the Bombnrdo- Venetian Provinces.
