VERSAILLES, June 15.-The only certain
feature OF French politics Ia uncertainty All you can
calculate upon tomorrow something very different
from what you see to-day. Less than week ago the
Orleans Princes we're looked upon the personal enc
mics Of NJ Theirs who confessed that he only inHu
enced by a of being himself overhrown in case he
refused TO let return France. The Chief of the
Executive yielded before the menaces of the Legtimst
and Fusionist sections Of the Chamber. But ne
more than yielded; he became the almost low
ing patron OF the Of his old master; he
received them, far the resources of the Preec-
ture admitted, in manner becoming their royal birth
he encouraged place TO go and pay court to
them and when the Princes to political soiree at
the Prefecture the mot Gordre given for nobody to
sit down in their presence What is the consequence OF
this apparently obsequous desire to please the Assemby
The majority which seemed menacing in its unity last
week is split up into its original elements The Legiti
mss are furious seeing that the Of Louis Philippe
are fair way to become the rallying point of party
and beginning to reconsider the policy OF waving
their right to regenerae France of the Count de
ChambOrd. The danger of mOnarchical coup d6tat is
for the moment STAYED Off The review TO be held IN cell
ebraton the conquest of the Commune, Ii is calculated
will create further diversion. And So If the law OF
blind caprice which generally determines great events
in this country do not prevail the time will slip round
when the elections by reinforcing the moderate
party, may place NJ Theirs firmly in the executive
saddle.

The Orleans Princes have not yet sent in their resg
nations to the Assembly though it is certain that they
promised they would last Wednesday. Possibly the |
ilustriOus statesman, to whom the pledge was given,
may have agreed with them to cancel 1t. However, |

selves forward Assembly The Prince de Join
VILE who is incapacitated by deafness from taking
part in debate has hear already left Versailles for
Randan, the seat OF his aunt, Madame Adelaide, in
Auvergne; and the Duke dAumale has returned to
Tyickenham. The only member of the family remain
ing in Versailles is the Duke de Chartres 1t will be
membered that he was decorated the recOmmenda-

from him first idea of European royalty and wonld
give reader obedience to him than to some general,
who in their estimation is only pale copy of the great
French Emir 1t not that the Orleans Princes are
going 10 live at ST. German enIaye, in house hired for
them by the faithful NJ Bocher The Duke dAumae has
given orders to agent at Chanty to make ready his
chateau there for the reception Of himself and his

Trochu is the Parliamentary hero Of the hour. NJ
heard yesterday to express wish that there
were a dozen Trochus in the Chamber. With handful
OF such prolix and entertaining speakers he said he
could put off constituent questions and the execution OF
the Republic to the Greek Kalends. Edmond About
treats the recital which the Assembly listened yester
day and the day before with rap attention as eeton
in two parts Those who read the second partthat Of

planned it away yesterday very skilfuly The regime
of the bitters was meant for the Assembly, and went
down without a grimace being made. Then Trochu raj
lied nearly all generals 10 his side by judicious dis
trbution of sweets. He attered, defended and placed
them on pedestals Ducrot, Bourbah, Chaoaud-Latour
