The political situation in France is
still threatening. 1t is said Mcmahon
Will ask the Senate to Endorse another
dissolution of the Chamber of Depu-
ties. Such a step us this, in the face
OF the plain expression of popular will
given at the recent elections, would
seriously endanger the public peace.
IT President Mcmahon can not recon
clie himself to governmental policy
in harmony with the views of the
people of Franee, he should resign in
order that a successor may be chosen
who is less stubborn aud imperious.

A SENATORIAL STRUGGLE.

II Al Iu6 -DdtIOilal CdplLdI VIC pas
week has been marked by an extra
ordinarxstrnggle for political suprem
acy in the Senate. Strengthened by
the votes of Senators Davis of Hi
uois, Conoyer of Florida and Patter
son of South Carolina, the death o.
Morton and the absence of Sharon OF
Nevada, the Democrats in the Sepate
made determined and nearly sue
i.cessfd1 effort to take tile case Of But
Ter of South Carolina out of the hands
of the Privileges and Elections Com
mittee and seat the claimant. The
first part of the programme was ae-
complislied on Tuesday, by vote OF
% to 81, after continuous session of
twenty eight hours, which was occu-
pied by the Republicans in filibuster-
ing and dilatory motions, their object
being to consume Tuesdays session,
prevent vote until Wednesday, and
thus delay the consideration of mo-
ton to admit Butler until the latter
day, when the Kellogg case would
have preference over all other bust
ness. These tactics were successful,
and when Mr.. Thurman followed the
adoption of the resolution discharging
the committee with motion to ad-
NIT Mr.. Butler to a seat, objection to
it's consideration was made and the
matter went over according to the
rules. aa sz as
A motion to take up the Kellogg
case prevailed and the Louisiana con-
test is now under consideration. The
vote on this motion was tie, which
the Vice President decided in the af-

the Republicans, and is expected to

Kellogg, aud it was even anticipated
that he would be seated yesterday or
to- day. The chances of Mr.. Eustis
for the short term are believed to be.
