The Cabinet Meeti0G-1ts Significance.
LONDON, January 13-The Paris CORE
spondent of the Times says: In the cabine
meeting yesterday, Dufsure protestes
against Bullets proposed programme, ant
positively refused to sign it. Presidcn
4acNahOn interviewed, and proposed b
alone should sign the programme. He up
terminate the crisis. The ministers accord
ingly agreed that the prOclamatio of thu
President be published to-day, and thai
each minister shall, as formerly, follow biz
own line of policy. but all shall rally around
the Marshal and give him their cooperation
After decision was arrived at semi Of6cia
announcement was published that n. Buffet
would countersign the proclamation re-
affirming the progrs of February IL
vinces every one that the crisis continues
If the entire Cabinet had, % agreed to, kept
silence and allowed MacMshon to epeak
alone, Buffet would have undergone . de.
feat, as Leon Says resignation, which he
provoked, could not he accepted.
Buffet, by countersgning the proclama-
ton, gains a double result. He puts him
dent, and Pledges the cabinet collectively
to the policy set forth in the proclamation.
This means that Say and Dufaure can
only retsin cfice because they have sac
riAced their wills and ideas to those of NJ.
Buffet.
Say and Dufaure doubtless yielded be-
cause they felt that prolongation OF the
crisis was perilous. The peril, however,
has simply changed shape. By means OF
the Cabinet, enters the electoral arena and
indorses Buffet's policy, which seems des-
tined to defeat.
The principal feature of the programme
is to oppose as enemies of order those who
demand revision OF the constitution before
1880 or attack the prerOgative of the Piesi-
dent.
The Sultan's Dissemination.
A special dispatch from Berlin to the
Times eays Turkish representatives declare
that any Intervention incompatible with
the dignity or independence Of the Porte
will be rejected.
1t in expected that England will advise
the Porte to consider Count Andrassy's
go, the rebels will be likely to derive greater
advantages than ever frcm the countenance
of the Montenegrins and Dalmatians.

She has six feet Ct water in her hold.
A Sensation.
The Pail Mall Gazettc's Paris special says
Marshal MacMshOn's proclamation caused
great sensation. The Liberals blame what
they call MacMahon's interference, and I'D.
prehensions of q recall of the Assembly are
oppressed. The fate of the ministry has
NOT yet been decided. Further announce
ments BY the official journal arc expected
tomorrow.
Csntributsrs to the Centennial.
The Islegroph's Paris special says the
Ministry OF Public Works will send to the
Philadelphia exhibition plans of the recent

Gil will send models of equares and public
buildings which figured at the Vienna or.
hibition.
BERLIN, January l3.-The Prince Impe-
rial will not visit Philadelphia. Among
other reaeons, the condition of the Empe-
ror's health renders the absence of his beir
inadmissable.
Placing the Porto in Extremis.
II is reported the Austrian ambassador
at CcEstsniinople will deliver Count An.
drassy's note supported by the powers,
which, it is thought. will render the Porte's
refusal difficult.

MacN1ahon's Election ProclamatioB.
PARIS, January 13.-FrenchmeD-For the |
FIRST time in tive years you are called upon |
to participate in q general election. Five
years ago you desired order and peace and |
ct the price of the most cruel eacrifcee, and
after the greatest trials you obtained them. |
You still desire order and peace. The Sem |
ators and deputies you are about to elect |
must co operate with the President of the |
republic to maintain them. We must sp- |
DIV with common accord and sincerity the |
constitutional laws, the revision whereof l |
sione, until 1880, have the right to propose. |
After 90 much agitation, discord and mis- |
fortune, repose is necessary for tho coun. |
Try, and think her Institutions ought not !
