NJ Rouher continued the speech which he be-
gan yesterday, contestlng the right OF the Assem-
bly, to annul an election upon mere documentary
evidence. He took occasion TO declare, on his
honor and conscience, that In denying the exist
enee of the "Committee from Appeal TO the Peo-
plen he referred exclusively to the Central Com
uittee having branches in all the departments.
He alluded TO report OF the PIefect OF Police
protesting to expose an extensive Bonapartist
organization, and avowed that he desired TO work
upon the hatred and dread Of Bonapartism In
some quarters, state OF feeling which had been
created in order 70 bring about the union OF par
ties which established the Republic. He wished
TO defend tue dead Emperor against caumny.
The Legitmists and Orleanist after 1880 and 1S4s,
In the same way sought TO defend their respective

TIE GRAND RIGHT OF THE BoNAPARTIsTs-To HOPE.
NJ. Rouher, resumng, denied that the Bonapart-
lists had tried to corrupt the army or had In
trlgued with the Socialists and Communists.
Addressing the Left he said :-"Your object Is
TO obtain renewal Of the vote overthrowing the
Empire. We will give you no pretext toI such a
step. We will respect the republican constitu-
ton. But the Republic is the result OF an
ephemerai compromise OF radicals and Orlean-
lists. The legirimists centre their hopes on the
revision OF the constitution. The Bonapartists
exercise the same right to hope"
