LONDON, Dec /, 1879.
A despatch from Paris to the Standard says:-
''The resolution of the republicans to submit
programme to the Ministers for their acceptance
is generally considered O friendly notice to
quit. M. Waddington, President of the Council
and Minister of Foreign Affairs, will be out of
Office very early next year, and perhaps sooner,
and M. Gambetta, President of the Chamber of
Deputies, will then have an opportunity of in
augurating parliamentary government under
o republican regime. At the third sitting of
the bureaux of the four groups of the Left ON
Sunday the following points, which the
Cabinet will be questioned, were settled,
namely:-The modification of the principle of
judicial irremovability; the transfer Of
the gendarnerie from the War Min
istry to that of the Interior, and tho
immediate dismissal Of rcactionary forces
Later dispatches affirm that the burcaux of
the Left have agreed upon the following points
as the main part of their political programme
Liberty of meeting and lawful association; lib
erty of the press, and gratuitous secular
compulsory education. Tho parliamentary
situation appears less strained. MN.
Spuller, Brisson and Floquet declare that
they would not accept portfolios in new Min
istry. 1t is generally believed that when N.
Baudry d'Asson interpellates the government OIL
Tuesday, the government will make declara-
tions which will lead to vote of confidence,
and end the crisis by consolidating tho Min
istry. The Standards Paris despatch says
the Journal des Debats declares that the Min
istry cannot possibly entertain the scheme for
framing q programme for their acceptance.
[Paris has for weeks been full of rumors that
nj. Waddington had resigned the Presidency of
the Council Tho facts seem to be these M.
Waddington has twice rendered his resignation
to M. Grevy On the first occasion it was ex-
planned that when NJ. Dufaure followed the for
tunes of Marshal MacMahon M. Waddington
accepted office at the instance Of the new Presi
dent, feeling the necessity of proving to the
world that the policy of France was unchanged
both Mt home and abroad. This he had done.
The Cabinets~pf Europe were satisfied that the
watchword Of the now French administration
was peace. NJ. Grevy, however, refused to ac-
cept NJ. waddington's resignation because he

the latter again demanded that he be allowed
to retire. The President said that such retire
mcnt would have the appearance Of a fight and
that he would himself be deprecated in the
ewes of Europe if, after six months' tenure of
office, he were forced to ochange his government.
Whereupon nj. Waddington gave way, and it is
now almost certain that he will stand or fall
with his Cabinet.l

GERMANY AND THE VATICAN.
The Nc,cs Berlin despatch says :-"Prince

LONDON, Dec. /, 1870.
The storm continues to rage with unabated
fury over the whole United Kingdom. The wind
blows with the force Of strong gale at Holy
head while at all the other western coast sta
tions it is reported as very strong. At Aber-
deem much fresh snow fell since last
night, and it is beginning to drift greatly.
The increasing snow on the tracks causes the
trains from the North and South to arrive late
The snow ploughs are being sent along the lines,
but, notwithstanding their use, the snow is &C
cumulating rapidly. A very heavy frost was
experienced at Glasgow last night and the
snow is still falling at intervals. The tempera-
ture is now eleven degrees below freez-
ing point. The Clyde is frozen, and
the side ice is being broken by barges
for the purpose Of facilitating traffic.
At Macduff the snow storm continues raging to-
night, the weather is very cold and all outdoor
labor has to be suspended. 1t is evident from
the reports received at the Central Meteorologi-
cal Office in London that the storm predicted
by the HERALD Weather Bureau in o cable sent

it must be borne in mind that what has most
contributed to keep the demagogic spirit down
has been the alliance between these three mill
tary empires. The two emperors remembered
this in time, and the Czar ia no more inclined to
isolate himself from his two allies than they are
disposed to break with him. The visit of the
Czarewitch to Vienna and Berlin is the counter
part of Prince Bismarck's visit to Vienna. The
one was connected with the Panslavist danger,
the other is due to the demagogic peril. Rus
sia," concludes the Cosstitutoanei, treasured
so far as England is concerned, will easily come
to terms on the other points of the Eastern
question. She will keep down the Panslavist
party and move in harmony with Austria and
Germany. The Austro-German entente will
continue, but will become Professionally object
less Meanwhile, the triple alliance is being
renewed, if not between the Chsncellors, at
least between the soveregns who at present
represent and personify in marked degree
their governments and their peoples" The
Nord, writing on the same subject OBJ
serves:-"All the speculations of the press
on the AustroGerman entente proceeded
from the fiction that Russia was en-
deavoring to annul the Berlin Treaty, ard
wanted to dispute with Austria the position
which she derives from this treaty in the East.
Bnt after the visit of the Czarewitch to the
courts of Vienna and Berlin this fiction will, We
hope, detinitively melt away, at least in infuen-
tial regions. This is what constitutes the essen
tial character of the event, what makes it i'm
portant, and what allows one to fOresee that its
result will be to cOnsecrate once more the rela-
tons of cordial friendship between the three
Powers. None Of these governments has any,
thing to dsavow, withdraw or sacrifice, and
their rapprochenent is due to tho fact that there
is no disagreement between the real motives of
the Austro-German entente and the views of
Russia."1
