PARIS, Jan. 21.-M Theirs, in accordance
with previous intimatOnS, sent TO the assembly,
yesterday, his formal resignation as president of
the republic. Ii was accompanied with an an
nouncement that all The ministers also rendered
their designations. Great excitement prevailed
in the chambers on reading these communica-
lions. Ayote was adopted almost unanimously,
only six members dissenting, appealing to the
patriotism Of the president, refusing TO accept
his resignation, and passing to the consideration
of the orders of the day. A deputation was APP
pointed to announce to Theirs the action of the
assembly. A deputy subsequently moved that
a committee Of the assembly should be appoint
ed to endeavor to effect a compromise with the
executive, and, in case of failure, to consider
and report to the assembly forthwith what
measures should be taken under the crcum.
stances. All the parliamentary clubs sent dep
utationS to Theirs to disSuade him from his pur-
pose. The deputies of the right centre held a
meeting and adopted a resolution declaring that
the tariff was solely a question Of inauce, not
of politics; and that in voting against the pro-
posal to tax raw materials they had no intention
OF expressing want of confidence in the gov
eminent.
THEIRS WITHDRAwS HIS RESIGNATION.
Ldter.-Ehe deputaIIon appointed by the as.
sembly waTed on President Theirs and informed
him of the vote by which the chamber refused
to accept his resignation. Theirs, in response,
consented TO remain in the service Of the cham
Der and of the country. 1t is probable that the
present ministry will remain in office
THE CAUSE OF THE EXCITEMENT.
The decision OF tue assembly provides that Il
TAX on raw material shall lie imposed as a last
extremity to which the government is compelled
to resort when all other methods Of taxation
fail TO produce revenue necessary for its eX-
penscs The committee Of fifteen appointed by
the assembly will begin their labOrs without de-
lay, and make complete and thoroughly ex-
haustive examination Of the tariff. At the con-
cluson of therlabOrs they will submit their re-
port to the assembly, which will again consider
the subject, probably during the present ses-
sion. The effect which the rejection OF Thiers's
project Of taxation may ultimately produce is
vet uncertain 1t is stated reliably, however,
that THEIRS, although exhibiting much temper
on the subject, is unlikely to revive it as a cab
net question.
THEIRS RISES TO EXPLAIN-A SPOILED CHILD
ON HIS DIGNITY.
President THEIRS, yesterday, in reply to the
deputatiOn from the assembly which called to
notify him of the refusal to accept his resIna
zion, said he was worn out and discouraged He
could not change his opinions, and he believed
conflicts similar to the present one were likely
10 occur between the legislative and the execu-
tive departments when the military and educa-
lional bulls came before the assembly. Theirs
further SAID that, while, for the present, he con-
scented to withdraw his resignation, the end was
inevitable, and, sooner or later, he would be
compelled 10 retire from the presidency Of the
republic.
THE VOICE OF THE ARMY.
MacMdhon also called upon Tniers yesterday,
and appealed to him, on behalf Of the army, to
withdraw his resignation. The marshal said
the army would obey the orders of the assem-
bly,, but would not be controlled by a dictator
ship, which was likely to follow the uncond-
tional retirement of the president.
THE MINISTERS ALSO REMAIN.
The members Of the ministry, at the earnest
solicitation Of Theirs, have resumed their port
