PARIS. Jan. 16.
In the Corps Legislatif yesterday Mr.. kera-
tro moved that the debate on the as
signment of Deputy Rochefort be postponed
until the oath inst. Mr.. Olivier opposed the
motion, and the Chamber decided that the
debate should commence Tomorrow, accord
ing to the original proposition of the Ministry
by vote of 80 to 10. The Seine official jour
mails assert that a majority in both chambers
will support the Ministry in the prosecution of
Rochefort. Several deputies have received
anonymous letters menacing them with per-
sonal violence in case the Chambers author
ICED the prosecution. The Liberal journals
also threaten serious disorders should Roche
fort be condemned.

other letters containing money have for long
time been missing, and efforts diligently made
to discover the guilty parties. The case was

that they shall be represented in bulk at
the State convention which convenes at Lew

huge sides at the prospect of making raid
upon the larders of the hotels in Lewiston

of going whose weight for various reasons

their strength before passing over them, in
the true elephant style. We opine that most

allow him to expand. We give the names of
