~ VERSAILLES, March 14.-The mil is e
terial statement was read simultaneous
ly in the senate and chamber of deputies
to-day, by M. Dufsure in the former,
and Due De Cszes in the latter. The
document opens with the following dec
laration: The republican government,
which was already founded, has been
completed by the election OF two great
Assem- blies. Universal suffrage has ssne-
toned the great constitutional results
accomplished by the late assembly.
Power cannot have q higher origin.
Never was a government more legiti-
| mately established. The statement re-
itsTates the presidential proclamation OF
January 18th, maintaining that existing
institutions ought not to be revised
until honestly tried, and continues:
"Ihtss wise words will be our constant
rule, The greatness and future of the
country depend upon loyal practice OF
| the constitutional laws. We shall in
| our relations with you and in the prep
arStion of future laws be faithful to the
liberal, conservative spirit which in
spired them. We shall insist upon fidel-
! ity on the part of our subordinates, and
| the public functionaries will second our
views by making the republic understood
| and appreciated. We shall tell them the
republic, more than any other form of
| government, must rest upon the sacred
| laws OF religion, morality, family rights,
respect for the inviolability OF property,
and upon labor encouraged and honored.
Lastly, it must respect those warlike
| adventures in which the governments
| have frequently engaged. The budget
will be balanced without increased tax
alton, but will insure the reimburse
| ment of the debt due the bank Of France,
| Our relations with foreign powers con-
tinue amicable and pacific. France has
Joined in the efforts for the pacification
OF the insurgent provinces Of Turkey
We shall retain the hope that an agree
ment of the great powers Jointly Affirm
Tag their respect for the treaties and st
tachment for peace will bear fruit
No power could view the termination o
civil war in Spain with more satisfsc
ton than France. This pacidcation o.
the public mind Of both extrem
tiles OF Europe and the arden
desire for peace animAtlDg al
the peoples and the governments, viii
favor the prosecution of the pending
commercial negotiations. The Rp
preaching expiration Of the Commercial
treaties compels US to lay down new
economical regime. We shall seek b.
preserving wise policy in free trade I,
aveid perturbing the industry" Th,
statement refers to the necessit.
Ct completing the reorganization
of the army and keeping psc
with other powers in nsva
construction. In regard to internal ad
minisIation, 1t Gays the government
while seeking to reconcile importan
and Justly demanded liberties with tn
necessary prerogstives Of executive pow
er, will submit propositions in legGrd t
the granting OF degrees for superior edu
cation, and in regard to the compositiO
Of municipalities.
The statement continues as folloWs
"1t is not without emotion that we ap
proaeh the first session OF legislator
under q constitutional republic. w
foresee possible difficulties, but hop
they will be overcome through you
confidence in ths superior loyal wisdom
Of the president, through our constar
agreement with the second chamber
and through q general and passioDat
desire to have France again rer
dered great by liberty order an
peace" The Republicans general
