A dispatch from Paris says :-"All the nc
gotiations which have been going 90 conceal o
plan of campaign Tor the execution OF which 1t
was necessary TO prepare public opinion. This
plap is no ether than fixed Idea oil second
dissolu,ioc. President MacMahon summoned
the Duke d Audiffret Pasquier and NJ NJ. Grevy
on the question Of @ new Cabinet with any OF
them. Then hc saw Senator Duelelc, and
asked him what the Left demanded. NJ. Du.
c!erc, thiok!ng TO bglog about q COMPROMISE,
wrote a note expressing his views If what his
parry might exact He asked much 10 the
hope OF obtaining little. Immediately the hight
unanimously cry out, You sec what the Lett
demaud--a coup G'etat against the Senate, the
dishonor cf The Marshal. 1t is impossible to
come 70 ali understanding with them Next
day, whcu every body believes negotiations
about TO begin, an official note announces that
they are troken eff; that the President cannot
WELD TO tie demand of the Left ard dlsavow
himself aud The Senate. IN other words, ad.
vantage is taken of the individual unofficial and
almost confidential act of q Senator in order to
strike with ii! disguised enthusiasm into The
path Of second dissolution. The Chamber
having furnished 40 pretcXt, one Is sought 1oT
outside, and nilon il is believed to have been
found this note is issued is The first warulug oil
the battles in which it is dcsircd to engage. Tic

ing contradictions .lrGn 10 the note by last night
proceedings il t;.c Chamber, what will the
President do? That is difficult to say. 1t i
terrible 90 contemplate dissolution involving
40 illegal collection of taxes, and it is painful tc
sec the Marshal i,rulned in between violence
and dissolution. But Judging by the past, it Is
to be feared his prompieIs will select thai
COURSE which il mcst dreaded by moderate
mcr."
