The Manifesto of the Count of Paris Causes
Much Excitement in the Capital.
PARIS, June 25.-Much excitement has been
caused by the manifesto of the Count of Paris
on his departure from France. Newspapers con-
tanning the manifesto selling on the streets in
large numbers. The document has made
great impression. The French Radical press re-
fer to the Count of Paris's manifesto as proof
OF the dangerous character of the man as a resi-
dent of the republic They say the manifesto
completely unmasks his real character as con-
spirator.
Three of the state councillors have resigned
because of the expulsion of the princes.
The bill expelling the princes reads as follows:
'.Artiele l. The territory of the republic is
interdicted to the heads of the families which
have reigned over France and to their heirs in
the order of primogeniture.
Art 2. The government is authorized to ex-
pei by decree the other members of these fami-
lies.
art. 8. Those of them who. in violation of
the interdiction, shall be found in France Age-
ria, the colonies. shall be punished by i'm
prisonment of from two to five years. AT the
expiration of the term of punishment they shall
be conducted to the frontier.
Art The members of families which have
reigned over France shall he excluded from all
pOlltlcal functions"
The Expnlsions Cause Uneasiness in Paris.
Cable Special.
The expulsion of the French princes by the
republic has caused much uueasness in Paris.
1t is feared that serious trouble may result from
the bitter feeling engendered. The better class
Of people severely condemn the issue of the do
cree 9gainst the heads of the old monarchical and
imperial families. They regard this step as an
evidence of weakness on the part of the govern
ment and dread the effect of its confession on
the uneasy spirits who are always ready for rev.
olution. They hold, too, that the expulsion
of the princes has given undue prom
to them and their political
position, which will tend TO unite the
monarchical and imperial interests in common
hostility to the republic, and has even aroused
a keen sympathy among great number of
Frenchmen with the princes who would other
wise have remained in seclusion. The wide
spread influence of this measure is already seen
in the immediate disturbance which it has made
in diplomatic circles, and in the stand which it
has obliged some of the most able statesmen
and former friends of the government to take on
the side of the princes In addition to the resig
nations which have already been offered to the
government many more are expected, and th 9
men of culture and social position display an in-
clination, as rule, to withdraw from all partici
patton IN its affairs This is likely to
be serious blow to the republic, particularly in
its intercourse with other countries. This dis
position is manifested not only by the represent
atiyes of France at the foreign courts, including
NJ WaGdington, ambassador at St. James, but
by the best class Of those who hold Offices in
France. NJ. Garnet, a member of the Council of
State. and Colonel Bellevoi, the commander of
the Duo de Chartress old regiment of chasseurs,
have resigned. Several of the persons arrested
yesterday, for exhibiting their sympathy with
the departing exiles, were released at night, it
not being thought expedient to hold them. in
view of the dangerous temper Of the people.
LIE Cri du Peuple, the violent Radical newspaper,
to-day demands new measure for the immedi-
ate expulsion from France OF all other royal
ists Phis is the legitimate result of yesterdays
decree, but would be perilous step to take.
