ton.
Duke D'Audiflret PAsquier, President
Of the Senate, told President Mcmahon
on Wednesday that he himself would take
the tribune against such proposal.
Il Is believed that the new Ministry
will include Leon Say, Minister Of Fl.
nance; De Marcie, Minister Of the Iute-
riOr; Christophle, Minister OF Public
Works; Debort, Minister Of Commerce;
Waddington, Minister OF Public Instruc-
tion, and BSrdoux, Minister OF Justice.
The Republican papers generally ex-
press distrust Of President McMahOn and
doubt the efficiency Of the projected COM
promise unless sound guarantees be con-
ceded.
The Constitutional and Soliel rejoice that
the principles Of the government by ma
jorities have triumphed.
President MCMahon has finally con-
ceded 10 DuFavre the full liberty OF form
ing new Cabinet. The new ministry
will therefore be homogeneous. This
excludes Preaident McMahon's reserva.
tiOn that he may have the choice of
Ministers OF War, Marine and Foreign
Affairs.

istiC practices are bold and defiant in the

follows;

ristiC Alteration constantly taught and
Practiced, yet Bishop after Bishop
preached in that church, and celebrated
at that altar, and not a whisper Of objec.
tion was heard in either House OF the
General Convention; nay, even the 'Pas.

ter touching anything that might affect
the RituaIists." Further, DR.. Hopkins
declares that the unanimity by which the
change Of the churCh'A name was defeated
was "ot that kind which Is 10 tremendous
as to mean nothing" and that the fact
that the Pastoral Letter waa issued sim.
ply to the "The American Church" shows
that the ritualists "have already secured
the solid adhesion Of the whole House Of
