In the assembly In addition to last

IN. Lambert DIST. Croix, supported

submitted bill providing that Me-
Mahon's powers be confined within
the title of president of the republic;
that second chamber be Organized;
that the right to dissolve both cham
beers be conferred on Mcmahon, and
that his successor be appointed by the
two chambers In convention. This
bill was referred TO q committee OF
thirty, together with that of the left
center"
The Times correspondent adds that
the exact result Of the sitting Is that
the committee Of thirty now have re-
> ceived an imperative mandate, forcing
them to promptly organize either the
septennat, without proclaiming the re-
public or constitution, or declare for a
definite republic under the presidency
of Mcmahon. 1t is probable that the
, commission will organize septennat,
and the assembly will ratify its decis-
ion; otherwise the majority hitherto
5 with the government will shift to the
left which, in all probability, would
cause Mcmahon to resign.
t It's not unlikely that, in consequence
5 of yesterdays proceedings, some of the
ministers will resign, but there will
} be no absolute ministerial crisis.
