Report of the French Impeachment
Commission.
VERSAILLES, March 14-The report of the
electoral commission in favor of the impeach-
ment OF DeBroglie came up for discussion IN
the chamber of deputies to-day. Before the
session OF the chamber began, the bureau OF
the left met and settled the terms of order
and the day to be moved if the Impeachment
was negatived, fixing a stigma upon the
members of the DeBroglie and Rochebourt
ministries. When the chamber met there
was unanimous attendance of the deputies
and senators.
Deputy Lengle submitted resolution for
a commission to inquire into the causes of the
huctuation of the price Of the FIVE per cent.
rentes between February 22d and February
9th, when rumOrs Of their conversion were
current, and demanded urgency upon It,
Urgency was defeated BY vote of 323 to
134.
The report of the electoral commission was
then submitted, and Renault assembled the
tribune to oppose the impeachment. Bosom
followed Renault in favor of Impeachment.
He stated that documents existed against the
ministry OF thesixeenth of May which were
not inserted IN report because they were
only discussed on Tuesday. He charged the
DeBroglie and Rochebourt cabinets with pre-
pairing for a coup d'etdt, and concluded by
moving the impeachment of the members of
that ministry.
NJ. Waddington, president of the council,
said the present ministry, on its accession to
office, f0uGd two burning questions. One,
amnesty, was happily settled, and he hoped
to days proceedings would dispose of the
other. Blossoms report would remain in his
tory as evidence of the guilt of the incrimi-
mated ministers. Their otfense was great,
but their prosecution would produce an agi-
tation difficult to allay. The country was
tired of purely political questions. The gov
eminent asked the chamber to place on its
order of the day the important bills upon
public works, instruction, the army, and
tariffs. France thirsted after order as well
as liberty. In conclusion, NJ. Waddington
stated that if the chamber prom unced
against the views of the government, the
latter would retire from office.
M. Brissol quoted the order of the day ad-
dressed last December to the commanders of
the several army corps, at a time when
France was perfectly quiet, making arrange
ments for an increase of the garrison of Paris
by twenty-five regiments.
NJ. Eloquent replied to Waddington.
Lepere, minister of the interior. followed,
mainly repeating Waddington's argument.
Nader DeMontjan strongly advocated i'm
parchment. A vote was then taken and
the amendment was rejected by vote of 3l7
to 159.
NJ. Rameau proposed as the order OF
the day that the DeBroglie and ROchebourS
cabinets, by their culpable schemes, betrayed
the government they should have served.
The chamber accordingly delivers them over
to the judgment Of the nation, and orders
that the foregoing resolution be placarded in
every commune in France.
NJ. Ciemenceau moved the order of the
day pure and simple, which was rejected.
Rameau's ord. OF the day was then passed
by vote of 30 yeas to l54 nays.
None of the iucriminated members were
present during the proceedings.
