ANOTHER DISSOLUTION FEARED-THE sTTUA-
TION At PRESENT.
LONDON, December ga special to the
Times from Paris says all the political tiz-
zing and ostensible negotiations, which
have been going on for some days past
simply conceal plan OF campaign. Tor the
execution OF which it was necessary to!pre-
pare public opinion. This plan Is no other
than fixed idea OF d second dissolution,
President MacMahon summoned the Duke
D'Audruff Parquier, and NM. Greyy
and Dufaure to the Elysee, but did
not enter on the question OF a new
Cabinet with any Of them. He mere
Iy spoke generally, neither side formu-
Iating any proposals. Then he saw
Senator DuClurc, who had no mission or
official status, and asked him what the Lett
demanded. NJ. Duclurc thinking to bring
about a compromise, wrote note express
ing his views OF what bis party mig INT exact.
OF course. like man bargaining, he asked
much in the hope OF obtaining little. In
mcdiately the Right UNANIMOUSLY cry out:
"You see what the Left demand! A coup
detat against the Sennte-the dishonor
OF the Marshal. 1t is impossible to
come to an understanding with them"
Next day, when everybody believes nego-
tistions about to begin, an official note an
nouuces that they are broken of; that the
President cannot yield to the demands OF
the Left, and disarm himself and the Sen
ate. In other words, advantage is taken OF
the individual, unofficial, and confidential
act Of a senator in order to strike with Ill
disguised enthusiasm into the patch OF
second dissolution. The Chamber having
furnished no prctcxt one is sought for out
side, and when it is believed to have been
found this note Is issued as the first warn
ing of the battle in which 1t is desired
to engage. The scheme is transparent.
After the overwhelming contradiction
given to the vote by last nights proceed
| ings in the Chamber. what will the Presl-
| dent do? That is difficult TO say. 1t Is ter
ribie to contemplate dissolution involving
an illegal collection OF taxes, and 1t Is pain
full to see the Marshal hemmed in between
violence and dissolution; but, judging by
the past, it is to be feared his prompters will
select that course which Is most dreaded
by moderate men.
