liberal tendencies, when the legislative body inter-
preted them by the expression Of its desires Your
Majesty, assured OF our cooperation, did not hesi-
tate, with abnegation without precedent in his
tory, to lay down the bases of the Parliamentary
constitution Of the empire But, faithful to the
great principle on which your Government is based
you would not consent, without the
direct participation of the people, TO
the introduction OF so considerable modidca-
tion in the power which you derive from their
free will. Assembled in its voting places, after
twenty years reign, 1t has, in It's iul independence
and under conditions which testify to the progress
and the virility Of public life, affirmed its appro-
baton with unanmity the force OF which no one
dare gainsay In acclaiming by more than seven
millions of suffrages the new form OF the empire,
the country, which has an instructive knowledge OF
what is for its interest and grandeur, says to you
'Sre France is with y0u; march with confidence in
the path whicn leads to all feasible progress and
found liberty upon the basis of respect for the laws
and constitution France places the cause OF liberty
under the protection OF your dynasty, and OF the
great bodies of the State "
In reference to this harangue, the Emperor replied
at some length but his speech has already appeared
in our columns, having been received by Atlantic
Cable on the very day of its delivery.

1t alleged that by the passage OF the Tenure-0f

NAMED in the ONCE for two months and received
the emOluments thereof, in which consisted the
breach OF the bond. The defense pleaded that Mr..
Flanagan regularly in office until the regular
appointment of his successor and that he rendered
services earning the moneys received by him.
The Judge said he deemed 1t necessary to have
the official correspondence upon the subject OF the
ofce after the passage OF the act above mentioned,
and was OF opinion that this matter should have
been referred to the Auditor OF the Treasury, Al
all events, he postponed the case until the 10th
