Message OF Presidenl Thlers.


VERSAILLES, December 1.-THE mes,
sage of Thiers was read In the Assembly
to-day and received. II announces that
the British government has been notified
of the intention Of France TO abrogatG the
treaty Of commerce and stipulated the
time, but France will not discontinue me-
gOtiatiOns for q Encouragement Of her
commercial relations with Great Britain.
Tho deputies arc warned never To
forget TO what depths OIL wretchednesg
tho Empire had led the country. France
should now look for complete re.
organization to God and to time.
1t was her policy To endure a dig.
nifed peace. Should war occur, despite
her determination 10 remain at peace, 1t
should not be her deed, France must re-
sumo the position TO Which she was sub
iected, not only for her own good, but for
tho interest Of all nations.
France sympathiZCs with the Pope In
the maintenance olhiS spiritual independ.
ence, and will In the case Of need give the
Holy Father vigorous support. Tho
utmost Cordiality Is manifested toward
Austria, for whose prosperity fervent hope
Is expressed. The relations of France
with Russia, says the President, are those
Of reciprocal interest. ThiCrs deplorcs
the Indebtedness Of the country, but
says It Is due to tho Vaccinations
Of Emperor Napoleon. Tho President
advocates the establishment of general
compulsory military service in war time,
and proposes the limitation of the annual
contingent TO 10000 men In time of peace.
The message concludes with an expression
Of confidence in the patriotism of the As.
sembly.

The wharton Poisoning Case.

ANNAPOLIS, Mn, December 7.-Tho
first witness called in the Wharton case
to-day was Mrs. Hutton. She detailed
the circumstances connected with Mrs.
Mharton's making milk punch of which

Winn, who attended Ketcham during his
sickness, testified To the lact connected
with his illness, aud stated that Mrs. Hut
ton gave the bottle 10 him when he
entered the house, which Mrs. Whar.
ton said was found in Ketcham's
bed. This bottle, the doctor thought,
had contained laudanum. Mrs. Wharton
was anxious that this fact should not bo
made known, fearing that II might give
rise to the impression that the General
had administered tue laudannm himself.
The doctor told Mrs. Wharton that he
was glad to find this bottle, rs It might
explain the condition in which he found
tho General and for the other reason
that if he had taken nothing else he might
recover, MS there was no evidence of q
dangerous amount Of opium having been
taken, Being puzzled about the Con
erals condition, witness remarked 10

They then applied ligaturGs above and

gan and contents and opened them, but
found nothing noteworthy. Tho points
OF congestion, heart and lungs were not
examined. Then the stomach was
placed in glass jar and taken to Pro-
