The utmost uncertainty is now felt about the re.
suit OF the vote which will take place on Saturday
and Sunday next no one can tell what will be
the result of the balloting though everybody knows
what compression is used to fer,e the voters to
decide in favor Of the only candidate, Louis Napo-
leon. Nothing, in my opinion, is more amusing
than to read the newspapers, written under the
command Of the Eysee, which say in the most bonn
bsst.c language that the nation at liberty to do
what they may be pleased to do-to name or not,
Louis Napoleon. Sc, SC y and, in the meantime,
no newspaper is allowed to discuss the matter, to
approve or disapprove the value of the hero put
on the shield, as the only standard by which
France can be saved from socialism, blood and
plumber. Never, think, among people who had
conquered the right to vote, has similar position
occurred in the world.
The Consultative Committee has definitely been
constituted: but any who will compare the first
list with the one which is now publicly avowed
will see that great number Of the names which
had been first printed, lave now disappe ared from
the list The names of Messrs. Leon Faucher,
Suchet, Duke Of Alpuieys, aud others, who have
protested agans. the publication Of their names
members OF such committee, have finally been
erased. And when one sees TO what subteIfuges
the President had had recourse to make France be.
lieve that he supported Nv men of honor and
standing, how could OF sense and probty
vote in favor OF renegade and traitor of man
who has dared to annihilate by a pronunciamen.o
all the liberties which had been conquered by SO
much bloodshed, in 1893, $780, and ISIS!
Despite all these reasons not to vote ia favor OF
Louis Napoleon, We see the clergy of France, to
whom the Idiufe President has surrendered the
Church of the Pantheon and other little rig hts, in
order to obtain their good favors, advise by public
letters, their .'steep' to decide in favor Of the
t'wolf" The Bishop of Chartres has given the
example, ard no doubt it will be followed by many

possible. Is not this a meritorious act, deserving
much appreciation, nc. only on account of its
novelty, but also of its being oropos!
Well, man who must be elected, per tas dm ntaS,
must make some concession, and obtain as many
friends possible in all the ranks Of society This
was the cause, Sun day last of the charming re-
ception given by Louis Napoleon to the men and
ing bouquets and their hands full Of spec shes, to
have peep at the hero who had delivered
France from its ruin. Never was the President
more afable to the ladies Of that society lie even
consented to kiss Of the pretty girls of the
people, and the whole company retired in the
utmost delight.

The best proof of what say may be found in the
dismissal Of General Chadeysson, a noble and
