EEANCE.
PARIS, Nov. l3.-There is much anxiety
in consequence of the violent terms in
which the motion for inquiry into the cleo
ton censures of the cabinet.
All the great powers have advised Pres
ident MacMahon to be conciliatory
The Moniteur publishes the following:
1t is said that President MacMahon has
declared that be had only to give sign
and the Bonapartists would immediately
furnish him with the elements necessary
for forming vigorous ministry, but he did
not intend to govern by that means He
would not become an accomphce of under
hand intrigues. He meant to select a
ministry from the constitutional groups
| If the coDciliatory attempt failed he would
resign. President MacMahon has not yet
| opened negotiations for the formation of
the cabinet, but has already selected men
whom he considers capable of fulfilling his
programme.
PARIS, Nov 13.-TAe violent terms of
yesterdays resolution for an inquiry into

does not seem inclined TO yield and nobody
expects 1t to. 1t is a problem how much
the couusels OF moderation which are
coming from every court in Europe, will
do towards weakening the executive will.
