PARIS, Nov. 4.-The Lett at "A meeting to-day
resolved to introduce an amendment 60 the motion
for the prolongation of President McMahon's term
Of Office. requiring n definite recognition of The
Republic. The Extremist and some OF the Depu-
ties of the Centre are In favor Of referring the
motion to the Committee on Constitutional Laws.
The Bonapartists to-day held a caucus. They re-
solved TO Introduce n motion in tha~Assembly Tor n
plebiscite for n form of Government. They de-
cided not 10 make an alliance with the Right "
Left. NJ. Casimir informed the Deputies al the
Centre, at their meeting tonight, that the Right
was DESTROYS of coming to some understanding
with them In regard To the prolongation OF Me
Mahons powers. and granting dictatorial powers
to his Government, for which n motion would be
introduced in the Assembly tomorrow. In reply
TO his propositions, the Left Centre resolved to
demand in the Assembly that the question of the
organization Of the Republic be Immediately placed
on the list Of standing orders.
The Orleans Princes have reiterated verbally
the assurances that they will not compete with
formal declaration that they will not accept n
Lieutcnancy in the kingdom, and this they do To
avoid all appearance OF competing with the Count
de Chambord. All factions of the Right have CON
sequently agreed To move for a prolongation ei
President McMahons powers. There h q differ
ence of opinion as to the length OF time. some
favor making Mcmahon President for life, and
others for extending his term six or ten years.
All are determined TO continue the existence Of
the'present Assembly. and a motion probably will
be introduced postponing its dissolution three
years. 1t Is rumored that an attempt will be made
TO arIR the Government with dictatorial powers
similar 10 those granted in 1852, and TO Introduce
a bill prohibiting elections for vacancies In the
Assembly until the electoral law is amended. The
Left have resolved to demand immediate elections
to oil the vacant seats. II Is stated that McMa-
hons forthcoming message TO the Assembly will
ask for an extension OF his term OF Office for so
long a time as may be required TO strengthen the
authority OF the Government, in order 70 imbuc
the nation with confidence.
PARIS, Nov. 5.-The National Assembly met TO-
day at Versailles. President Mcmahon sent a
message to the Assembly which was read soon
after the reopening. The message begins with
congratulations on the Liberation OF the territory
and the maintenance OF order. and continues ms
follows " Europe is assured that we are FIRMLY
resolved TO preserve peace, therefore without fear
she sees rs take possession OF our territory. The
administration has always acted In the conserva-
tive spirit which animates the great majority OF
the Assembly, from which i never depart. The
agitation OF the public mind is redoubled. Our
assembling is reproached because IL has 10 discuss
constitutional bills, which necessarily involve the
question of a form of Government. l had neither
TO intervene in these discussions, nor TO forestall
your decision but merely to conllne the latter
within legal limits, and i provided that the latter
should be respected. Your power therefore ~
intact. Nothing can impede 1t. You may think
that in the present situation, with party feeling so
strong, the establishment Of any definite form OF
Government presents serious difficulties, and that
il would be more prudent to maintain the present
legislation. even il ii 50 permit me TO be elected
again TO an honor which | did not seek. To tell
you frankly my opinion, in order to thoroughly
insure public peace the Government lacks two
things--essential conditions TO its efficiency. IL
has neither sufficient vitality nor authority. IL can
do nothing durable if the rights OF the Govern
ment are daily questioned, with It's powers liable
10 be changed at any moment. IL can secure
peace to-day. but not safety tomorrow. Great
undertakings are impossible industry laDguishes.
We are unable to restore confidence abroad, which
is all necessary TO the restoration OF the greatness
of our nation. Our Government lacks authority,
for il is unable 30 obtain obedience from Its own
agents, or to repress the excuses OF the Journals
which are cOrrupting the public mind. You Will
consider these dangers, and create a strong, dura-
BILE Executive, which can energeticnlly defend
society.
