The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1876-01-20

A remarkable crisis has occurred in the
French Cabinet. Say, Dufaure and Wallen
have resigned. lie Temps gives the follow
ing account of the crisis in the ministry:
NJ. Leon Say, Minister of Finance, in con-
junction with N. N. Ferry and Boucher,
who, like the Minister, are candidates for
the Assembly from the Department of Seur-
at-Oise, issued a joint manifesto to the cleo
tors. President MacMahon, who did not
consider the manifesto sufficiently con-
sentative, on Saturday summoned NJ.
Say and requested him to withdraw his
name from it. The latter asked time to re-
fleet. At a second interview, the President
said the dissension in the Cabinet was be-
coming patent. The name of the Minister
of Finance figured on the list of candidates
hostile to the government. NJ. Buffet con-
sidered the homogeneousness of the Cabinet
irreparably compromised, consequently NJ.
Says withdrawal was necessary. NJ. Say
thereupon said, "You ask me to resign?"
The President intimated that he did. NJ.
Say reminded MacMahon that several times
previously he had offered to resign, and on
~ remained at the earnest request of the
Executive. He concluded by offering his
resignation, which was accepted.
President MacMahon presidediatth the meet
ing of the French Cabinet on the 18th JAN
uary. Leon Say will retire from the ministry.
The other members will probably remain.
NJ. Paul De C~assagnac, in an article in
Paris La Pays, violently opposes NJ. Olli-
vier as candidate for the Department of
Var. He says NJ. Olivier shows a lack of
moral sense in putting forward his discred-
tied personality, and his presence in the
Assembly would be a calamity to the Impe-
rial cause.
A telegram from Vienna says the Porte
intends to ~confine reforms proposed by Eu-
ropean powers to Herzegovina, thus avoid.
ing trouble with the incensed Mohommedan
majority in Bosnia.
A Berlin special says the government has
determined to liberate Cardinal Ledochow-
ski Internationally, at the expiration of his
term of Imprisonment; but he will be closely
watched, and again arraigned if he attempts
to exercise his especial functions, or other.
