day, the Marquis Of Frsnclieu moved hie
interT rotation in regard to the sinterpella.
ton OF the constitution and the circular Of
the late minister. Ricsrd, to the prefects;
the stigmatizing as factious the hopes Of the
mOnsrchiste
Dufaure replied that the circular meant
that members of political parties might
retain hopes, and even labor for their
realization, but government officials were
formally prohibited from adopting such
attitude. He stated that both Cham.
bers, united in Congress, could alone
decide upon the interpolation of the
constitution. It would be dangerous to
place an Interpretation upon the consti.
tuition now, as revision was impossible until
1880, and the new Parliament, which will
be elected before then, might interpret the
constitution differently. N. Dufsure con-
cluded: II therefore say in reply to the in.
terpellation, let us respect the fidelity OF
our opponents to their convictions and
hopes, but combat all cOnspiraciee."
