unanimity upon this question. There is no
act of any government since the creation Of
the world that will compare in sublimity with
this act if it shall be passed. and to take this
sacred document, this majestic declaration Of
the people, and plaster it over with the crimes
that may be charged against an individual, is
to blur the grace and glow Of clemency-to
take the nose from the face for the thread OF
god-like act, and stick blister there. lap
plause.
Mr. Speaker, when the people of other
States shall come here during the present
year to witness the achievements Of our re-
publican government after the expiration OF
century, remembering, as they do. even bet.
ter than ourselves the events of our great
war, our highest trium ph will be to let them
hear the shouts of the whole people in JOY
GUS congratulations upon this grave act Of
peace, and oblivion to all classes and persons
for all crimes connected with the late war.

ton is averted. The Council will reconvene

port OF law, order and good government at
| the coming general election, and hopes the
country will secure the necessary repose after
being torn and distracted by agitation, dis
cord and misfortune. He says it is known
that he did not desire his present power; but,
having been invested with it, France could
rely on his exercising it without weakness.
De hopes God will aid him, and that if he
receives the support of the nation that he will
not fail in the fulflment Of his mission.
PROCLAMATION.
PARIS, Jan. 13.-Frenchmen, for the first
time in five years you are called upon to par
ticipate in general election Five years ago
you desired order and peace. and at the price
of the most cruel sacrifices, and after the
greatest trials, you obtained them. You still
desire order and peace. The Senators and
Deputies you are about to elect must CO.
operate with the President Of the Republic to
maintain them. We must apply with COM
mon accord and sincerity the constitutional
laws, the revision whereof alone, until 1880,
have the right to propose.
After SO much agitation, discord and mis-
fortune repose is necessary for the country,
and think her institutions ought not to be
revised before they are honestly tried; but to
try them as the salvation of France requires,
1t IS indispensable that the conservative and
truly liberal policy which always intended
to pursue should prevail to uphold it. I ap-
peal for union among those who place the de-
tense of social order, respect for law and
patriotic devotion above their recollections |
aspirations or party engagements. l invite |
them to rally around my government.
1t is necessary that the sacred rights which |
survive all governmental changes, and the |
legitimate interests which every administra-
ton is bound to protect, should enjoy full |
security under strong and resp cted govern
ment. 1t Is necessary not only to disarm
those who might disturb the security now,
but to discourage those who threaten its
future by the propagation of anti-social and
neither sought nor desired the power 1 am
invested with; but she may rely upon my ex-
srcising it without weakness. in order to
ulfill to the end the mission intrusted to me-
hope God will aid me, and that the support
# the nation will not fail

President of the French Republic.
