The following is the Report made to the French
Senate in the name of the Commission charged to
examine the proposition relative to modification
Of the Constitution as to reestabish the French
Empire:
MEssIEuRs LES SENATEURs: France, attentive and
excited, now demands from you great political act-to
put end to her anxeties and to her future.
But this act however serious it may be- does not meet
pense the wisdom of legislators You know the wishes
expressed by the Councils General the Councils Of Aron
basement and the addresses of the Of France
wishes fer stability in the government of Louis Napo
leon and for return political form which has struck
the world by the majesty Of its power and by the wisdom
of its laws You have heard that immense petition Of
whole people rushing the steps of its berator and
those enthusiastic cries. which may almost call Pile
bscite by anticipation, proceeding from the hearts of
thousands Of agrcuursts and workmen manufacturers
and tradesmen Such manifestations simplify the task
Of statesmen. There circumstances in which fatal
necessities prevent the frmes legislator from acting in
accordance with public opinion and with his
there are others where he requires long consideration
in order to solve questions which the country has not
sufficiently decided You gentlemen, are not exposed
either this constraint this embarrassment The
national will presses and duplicates you and your
allied experience tells you that in yielding to her enrea
ties you win contribute replace France in the paths
which suitable her interests to her grandeur and
to the imperious necessities of her situation All this
is in fact explained by the events which take place be-
fore you.
After great political agtatons it always happens that
nations throw themselves with joy into the Of the
strong whom Providence sends to them. 1t the
fatigue OF civil which made monarch of the Con-
queror Of Actium il the horror Of revolutionary
cesses, much as the glory Of Marengo, which raised
the imperial throne In the midst of the recent dangers
of the country, this strong showed himself on the
10th Of December, 1S48, and the I'd Of December,
1851, and France confded to him her standard which

and by his prudence, the has shown himself equal
to the task 1t is because, when nation feels herself
tormented by the agtations Of stormy Government
necessary reaction leads towards him who best

Louis Napoleon, therefore, is in this wonderful situa
on that he alone holds in his hands these nestmable
gifts He has, in the eyes Of France, his immense
vices the magic Of his popularity, the souvenirs of his
race the mpersbable remembrance Of order Of organza
on and Of herosm which make the hearts Of all French
beat He again revyes in the eyes of Europe the
rumphs for which his history is rich, but for claiming
down the political and social tempests, for endowing
France with the conquests Of peace and for strengthen

home and abroad IL is to him that is attached f

December 90 when the moderation Of noble character
prevented its being demanded. But now the public

stnct in order to fix the character Of It. After the bitter
which put the heir to at the head Of the
Republic Il was evident that France still democratic
from her habits ceased to be monarchical in her
