FRANCE.

PARIS, November 22.-Thiers will at
tend meeting to-day of the committee
of the National Assembly, appointed to
prepare a reply to his message at the
opening of the Assembly. The COM
mittee in their address will demand of
the President the appointment of re-
sponsible ministry; that he shall not
participate in the debates in the Assem-
bly,, and that he shall communicate
with that body by message only. These
points will be strongly contested by the
adherents of Thiers when the reply is
presented to the Assembly.
President Thiers to-day told several of
his friends who called upon him, that he
would make all reasonable concessions
to secure harmony in the government,
but that it was impossible for him to re-
linquish his well-known convictions.
The President this morning received a
deputation from the party of the Left
Center in the Assembly, consisting of
M. NJ. Casin1ir, Perrir, Labaulaye and
Picard, to whom he said he was with
them in opinion, but the first question
to be settled was now between himself
and the committee appointed by the
Assembly to draw up reply to his
message.

AMES.
Mississippi Registrars do the Amiable for
Ames-He SWears Well, and
Votes.

The Natchez Courier says that Gene
raj Ames, United States Senator, so
called, and Ben Buffers sOn-in-law Of a
fact, applied last Saturday to the Board
of Registration of Adams county to be
registered As voter in the county. Mr..
r. T. Rose, the Conservative member of
the Board, refused to register him, or to
be in any way d party to its being done,
and very properly left his seat on the
Board while the other two members Of
the Board-Messrs. Alexander and Fitz-
hugh-were performing the act. Ames
took the prescribed oath, swearing that
ne had resided in the State of Mis-
si-sippi SIX months, and in the
county Of Adams one month, and
his certificate was issued to him.
The truth is that Ames has never in all
his life been fifteen days altogether in
the county Of Adams; that he never
was assessed I'm il until a short time ago,
when he procured himself to be assessed
upon his poll and a watch, and paid the
taxes thereon. We are not lawyer,
and do not therefore know what it takes
To constitute a residence of one month in
the county, but taking a matter Of fact
view Of the question, we should regard
it as exceedingly doubtful if any man of
-crupulOus conscience could swear that
he had resided in a county one month
when he had never been in its bOunda-
rie- fifteen days altogether in all hislife.
But General Ames did swear this, and
we hope the Grand Jury VIII take the
matter under consideration.

ST. LOUIS, November 22.-Reliable
advices from the Chickasaw Nation says
that the Legislature of that nation,
which has just adjourned, passed a reso-
luton requesting President Grant TO car
ry into effect that part of the treaty of
1866, between the United States and the
Choctaws and Chickasaws, which pro-
vides that when the Indians deserve it,
lands heretofore held in common may
be divided among the individual mem
bers Of the tribes. This is considered by
those best informed regarding matters
in the Indian Territory as the most ad-
vanced step toward civilization that
has ever been known by any Of the In
dian tribes, and 1t is thought by q great
many that should the government not
insist on any Territorial organization
other than that now existing, many Of
the tribes will follow the example Of the
Chickasaws
