PARIS. September 25.-The BonapHrt-
i,t council which met in secret session at
Arcncnberg. Switzerland, at the chateau
of EX-Emprcss Eugene, for the purpose
of determining the future policy Of the
party, resulted N the following party
programmes The Prince Imperial shall
undertake in person the exclusive dircc-
tion Of the lmpcrialist policy. The
Empress. who is unpopular with large
section Of the party on account OF her
pronounced ltramontanism, has abd-
Gated the regency and leaves the young
Prince to bcguided by councils more IN
accordance with the prevailing sentl-
meut of the party. The Prince Imperial
will be guided wholly by NJ. Roucher,
thus restoring him to prominence in the
party which is steadfastly opposed to all
concessions to the Constitutional party
and di-approved Of the Iiberaiized policy
Of VI. Emile Olivier previous to the war
ofls7O. Should the party succeed in
restoring the Empire this choice Of r
leader leaves no doubt as to It's character.
1t will be- dcspotic IN the full sense OF the
term ard the Council at Arenenberg has
decided on the constitution of 1852 in all
il. vigor as one of their choice. The policy
agreed upon ss the best calculated to ad-
vance the interests OF the party in the
present assembly is the continuous de-
maud for IA pleb,cite which they think
aattar the masses by appearing to leave
the final decision - 10 the form OF gov
crnmcnt in the peoples hands. They
will also demand a revision Of the con-
stitution in accorda' ce with article :, Of
the constitution OF February %.
