city, closed Sunday evening, when protracted
meeting was held in City Hall, some $500 per-

increasing interest every evening during the
week, the several clergymen of the city and re-
formed men being the speakers. City Hall

sired to attend these meetings during the sew
eral evenings of the doctors sojourn here, and

day throughout his stay. Never was a com.

THE FRENCH CABINET.

A Crisis Imminent,
PARIS, Jan. 1O.-A ministerial crisis is i'm
minent. A cabinet council was held last night.
Comments of the Journal DIES Debats
Speaking of the crisis in the French Cabinet.
the journal deS DebatS says: The ministry was
never completely homogeneous, although it had
the appearance of concord maintained by mu-
tual concessions. Since the opening of the
electoral period Disagreement has arisen be-
tween the ministers belonging to the Right and
and Left Centre, respecting political alliance,
and also on question whether the electoral
candidate should be patronized by the govern
ment.
The Debats further alIudes to the aggressive
tone adopted by some Of the journals towards
certain members of the cabinet, and to the inn
proper manner in which the President is brought
into the controversy for party purposes

is canvassing in Charente in concert with Col.
Kochereau Defueh, late member of the Assem-
biz from Observation-Disclosures a most decided
opponent to the ministry. Yesterday Say had
two audiences with MacMahon. The Moniteur
says that he spoke to the President about the
assaults upon him by the newspapers, which
the LIE Soleil intimidated certain officials en-
couraged. The principal offender is the Figaro
which yesterday affirmed that Buffet had or
dered the project at Seine-et-Ose to vigorously
oppose the senatorial list, upon which Leon Say
says that his name appeared. The Figaro also
published long aud bitter diatribe against M.
Say, of which the following is au extract: '.For
his candidacy on that list he knows the govern
ment blame him. yet he remains. He knows
the head of the state rebukes his conduct and
he remains. Disowned, condemned and reject
ed by his colleagues, he still remains. What
ever is said or done he drinks off every cup and

The Berlin despatch to the News says it is

blessed tand is the only one on earth
where our people have never suffered any
