The French Coup D'Etat.

A Paris corres pondent thus CONSTITUTES
he motives of Mac Mahon il the dismiss
al of his cabinet:
"The singular semi. official notice pub.
lished u few hours after the dismissal OF
the ministry, to the effect that The Mar
sosl means peace and is determined to
suppress ulLramontat demonstrations,
Tets the people to asking what Mac
Mahon really means. Among those
who hoped tAat be had inteu ded coup
detat there is now suspicion that he
Intended only coup dc tete; but
OF this We can only jude by
the logic of facts. In the first
place the ministry is Enthusiastically
one of reaction. Whatever may be
the Presidents personal views, doubtless
the men at the head of the Cabinet will
drive him TO acts which will end in revo-
luton, and, pr, baby, in civil war. 1t Is
necessary TO recollect that we have here
constitutional ruler dlsmissing his Csbi-
net, not because majority opposed it in
the Chamber, bat because Of the majority
sympathizingwi with and supporting 1t. In
other words the Marshal has taken issue
with the nation under the most absurd
pretence that he alone Understands and re-
presents its interests. The constitution OF q
Ministry Thoroughly resctonsry renders
inevitable therefore, the following chain
o. evidence: The prorogstion of the
Chambers for month is to give the new
Ministry time to organize but on the
Legislatures reassembling the Ministry
will meet TN exsspersted Chamber and
be beaten by overwhelming msjorities on
the first measures presented. Then will
follow q dissolution, and general
election in three months, which
will be too short time for the
ministerial agents to control the re-
turns. The next Chamber will con-
sequeHtly be more Republican
tnan the pr, sent one and stronger in the
support OF their indignant constituencies.
Tue faction in power, defeated and hu-
inflated in every contest with the ma
jori,y will certainly push the Marshal TO
q coup d'etaL Everything will then
depend upon tie old soldiers sense OF
honor and patriotism. do not believe
he wants to play the part OF Monck;
he certainly has not the stuff IN him to
play the part OF a Cromwell.
