LONDON, March ~, 1879.
The agitation for the impeachment Of the Do
Broglie Ministry is gradually subsiding. The
Paris correspondent Of the Standard says:-
1.-The impeachment motion is likely to have
result which its authors do not contemplate
namely, the beginning Of crusade to put down
noisy demagogues who aim ut rendering govern
ment impossible under every regime and who are
now adopting, against tho Republic, manGuvrcs
to which they rcsortcd against the En-
pire and monarchy Of July. The feeling
of irritation is general throughout the
country against these mischievous fanatics,
who, whenever things happen to be settling
down and tho chambers seem to be ON the point
of directing their attention to the business of
the nation, start an Interpolation defiAmatory
attack against some Minister, or motion for the
Impeachment of former Ministers, or a resolution
for the rehabilitation Of tho Commune. The
time and temper of the country, as well as of
the House, require protection against these in
cendiaries and if the government shrinks from
taking measures to render them innocuous tho
country will get tired of the government. The
unanimous outcry is We have had too much
Of oil this We want to be let alone and have no
more playing Mt the 1903 Committee of Public
Safety aud the Reign Of Tcrlorv"
The republican papers which support impcach-
mcnt are the Rappei, the Rtcolution Francsisc,
the Marseais, the L0nterssc, the Petit Parishes,
the Eceaememf and the Petite RGpubLi1mc Fso,s-
caisc. Those which oppose it arc tho Temps,
the Steele, the Pressc, the Libcr1. tho -yanonaL
the Xir6 Steele, the FTusco, the RtpssLiiqxc
EIuacaisc and the Journal des Dftuts II
will he observed that M. Gambetta's two papers
take different sides, and that the Steele, edited
by III. Brisson, tho author of the impeachment
report, il opposed to the measure, on the ground
that it would involve Q Ministerial crisis
The end of the agitation ie probably fore
sha4iowod by the Paris correspondent of tho
Times, who says:-'"rhe order of tho
day shelving the impeachment scheme,
in order to secure the support Of the
majority Of tho republicans, must be couchcd in
such terms that the dc Broglic and Rochcbouct
cahinets while cscaping the Judgment of any
formal tribunal, will be none the less con.
dcmnc.l. Such AN order of tho day, though tho
Right could not vote for it, would receive tho
support OF large majority Of tho republicans
and would be adopted. Such will doubtless DC
the issue of the debate" The Tines Paris cor
respondent telegraphs follows :"A number
Of the Deputies of the Left Will of course only
vote against impeachment on condition that its
rejection shall be effected by passing the order
of the day SO couched that no member of the
Right could agree to 1t. Avery large majority
will certainly support such an order of the day"
A despatch from Paris says that meeting to-
day of 100 members of the republican Left de
clarcd almost unanimously against impeach-
mcnt, but another meeting. of seventy members
of the republican union resolved with only
three dsscntcnts to support it.
