The French AssembIy.

LONDON, November 3.-The Stand.
ards Paris correspondent says NJ. Gsti-
means bill for the cessation of the prose-
cution against communists, was INTRO
duced in the Chamber of Deputies yes
terday by NJ. Lisbonne. Alter debate,
and during which Du Fsrve opposed and
Gambetts supported the measure, the
House by an overwhelming majority de-
ciied to proceed to debate on the clauses
of the bill. The correspondent remarks
that the defeat of NJ. DuFarve ought to
show the government the necessity of
dong something in the matter.
The Times published letter from
Paris on the subject, of which the fol-
lowing is the substance: NJ. Gatinean's
proposition is that no new prosecutions
for participation IN the commune be
begun and the old prosecutions
be quashed, except those directed
against the iDstigators or principals in
assassinations, incondIsrism or robbery.
and that all trials of parties in contuma-
cy be before the court OF assizes, instead
of military tribunals, rs heretofore. This
provision would prolong the trials ten
wears, as between 1900 and 1900 cases
remain to be heard, while the assizes
could only try 800 or 400 yearly. On
June 28th, President Nc Mahon, yielding
to the Cabinets desire to quiet the sgita-
tion on this subject, published letter in
the Official Journal ordering that no
more prosecutors be instituted, except
for contumacy. This was meant TO be
compensation to the Extreme Left for
the rejection of general ami esty.
Gstinesns proposition would permit all
selEexiled Communist leaders to return
to France in safety.
The Cabinet has determined mot
10 accept any larger measure Of
amnesty than that conceded in the Pres
idents letter leaving individual cases
subject to executive clemency. If the
cabinet now accepts the passage OF
Gsutenesn's motion by the lower House,
even though certain of its defeat in the
Senate, it joins in an aggressive
and distrustful vote against President
Mac Mshon. If the measure is adopted
by combination of the left and right
the cabinets majority is destroyed, and
either way the cabinet must resign.
The Paris dispatch to the daily News
says, yesterdays proceedings in the
Chamber of Deputies are equivalent
10 the adoption Of tho Gstimean bill
in principle. The debate was
adjourned till tomorrow The Chamber
will probably pass the bill, in an amend
ed shape, against the wishes of the min
istry, and the Senate will reject il. This
will probably be the commencement OF a
ierious conflict

THE EASTERN WAR.
The Policy OF France.

PARIS, November Sin the Cham
DER of Deputies to-day, Duke De
Cszes, minister of fereign affairs, made
statement in regard to the policy OF the
French Government in the East. He
dwelt principally on the country's need
of peace, and concluded as follows: Ii,
contrary to the expectations Of the Gov
ernment, complications should arise, We
shall never ask you to compromise the
honor and safety Of France IN the struggle
which does not involve her essential
interests; thus having used our best en-
deavors 70 maintain the peace of Europe,
we shall at least be sure Of being able to
maintain 1t for ourselves.

LONDON, November 3-The Marquis
of Harrington, in addressing public
meeting at Keighly, yesterday, said
that however much he might question
the policy of some of the government
measures relative to the eastern question,
he was not prepared to say that the OBJ
iects the government had aimed at had
been such as would generally commend
themselves to the good opn ion of the
English people.

MEETING ArMARTIS's FERRY.

The Democrats at Martins Ferry are
wide awake and determined. They had
a magnificent meeting last night. The
men were out with their torches and
paraded the streets ofthe town ,at an early
hour in the evening, and were joined at
about 81 o'clock BY fire squad from
Wheeling. The public hall was lit up
for the speaking, but when the crowd
gathered it was found that the hall would
not hold the half of the enthusiastic De-
mocrscy assembled. An adjournment
was had to public square where a
stand had been erected, when Hon. W..
L. HEARN, of Wheeling, introduced to
the vast audience Hon. Z. b. EsHELMAN,
of Wooster, who proceeded to address the
people in most effective manner. Mr.,
EsHELMAN is a PLAIN, incislve and et-
fective speaker; and his talk to our
neighbors over the river last night did
good A fuller report of the meeting
will be found in our local columns.
