TIE FRENCH ASSEMBLY. As the French
Assembly is about to meet, and will be one of
the most important it may be, in the history OF
Frauce, calculation of the strength of the diff
tereut parties made by that usually well-im-
formed paper, the Courier des Flats Unis, may
throw some light on passing events. There is
the Moderate Right, the Centre Right, the
Extreme Right, and the Bonapartists, who
seek and appeal to the people. TO the Left
appertain three eroups--the Republicans, who
are simply for Republic under whatever form;
the Republican Left and the Centre Left. The
first series ofgroups comprises three hundred
and eighty members. These may possibly vote
for a monarchy except the thirty. eight Bona
partists, who will resist unless plebisclte is
taken. The Left can bring into opposition
about three hundred and thirty-seven deputies,
and may be reinforced by OBJECTIONS FROM the
ranks of its opponents. The most eminent
orators and leaders Of popular opinion are to be
found, as is well known. among the members
of the Left.

some of our contemporaries who were once de-

zalre was resumed at no n to day. The atteu-
dance Was larger than on any day sluce The

his cxamlnatnn Of the accused, stating hat he
should consider the prisoners responsibility
commenced with August II. He, however,
put several questions in regard to events before
that date
In reply to questions concerning the disaster
at turbach, Bazllna said he had no knowledge
that orders were given TO Generals direct. Hc
was present at council of war held by thc EN-
peror on the 9th of August. 1t was then re-
solved that his army should be brought 10 the
walls of hlelZ, and a movement In that dlrec-
ton began on the 18th. After reaching the
city he received 10 orders to- obtain more am
uun,.inn Tcegraphic dispatches were read
showing that Bazaiue ln:eudcd to couneract the
flank movement of The Germans, but the Em-
peror prevented him from carrying out his
plans.
The Marshall in answer to further questions,
especially concerning the 18th of August, stated
hat he agreed with tn Emperor to march to
Verduu, bur the delay was caused by battle,
and he was otherwise hindered lie was un-
aware the Emperor Intended to depart from
Metz -5
He declared positively that the Emperor left
no special order. II was we'll understood, how
ever that in he event of strong resistance,
The army was to remain at Metz few days, at
least, and not 60 beyond Verduu in any case.
After the battle Of the 10th, Leboeuf aud Can
robert agreed with him that it was impossible
to advance. Responsible officers informed him

that he gave Canrobert all the aid asked at ST.
