The French Senate.
The Times Paris telegram says: 1t seems
quite certain the Senate in no case will con-
tain purely ministerial majority as Buffet
understands the term. The Cabinet could
only find majority by the support Of four
anti-republlcan groups, including the IRE
ccncilables, BOnapartists and ultra le-
gitimists, OF by the union of the moderate
left with the ministerialists Buffet
must renounce the least cooperation from
the moderate left, the Leon Say and
Feray incident has placed an impossible
barrier between the left centre and him.
n. Buffet, then, can only govern with the
four groups of the right. He reeolutely
pushes the moderate left toward the
Of the Bonapartis,s Of all shades, being
forced at the same time to reckon on
the support of the legitmists. Such
combination would be the signal for
the most disastrous complications. If
France is ready 70 be saved, another
policy must prevail; policy liberal, mod
crate, and firm against all violence and
agitation. This policy is only possible with
and honest ideas of President MacMahon
will suffice to reassure France, and we may
be certain that the next session will open
under q Cabinet realizing the promise of
Lille and eummoning around It the mod
crate men of all parties"

The Misforrunes Of the Direct Cable.
The Times, in its financial article, pub
fishes the following letter, and says, in
reference to the frequent ruptures Of the
Direct Cable Company's wires: at is hardly
possible to believe malicious conduct of
the kind pointed out could be adopted for
any save the most sinister purposes, and,
for the sake of all concerned it is hoped
the fullest investigation may be made As
to the delay which occurred IN making the
successive breakages known, we are in
formed that on this last occasion the com.
pany sent word to the Stock Exchange be-
fore eleven o'clock in the morning: go the
responsibility OF keeping back the an
nouncement does not rest with it."
