On the whole, however, they indicate grest distrust and timidity. Nospprehensions arc ex. premeé of any immediate convulsion im timancial cr trading affairs; but there is an evident belief that @ long period of uncertainty has now to be passed through, and that every means should be taken 60 @« to be prepared against even the most extraordinary possibilities. The Dalance of opinion seems to be that Louis Napoleon may succeed for the time in maintaining his position; but that, as everything must continue to depend wpen the troops, the revival of commercial confidence fe cut of the question. The unexpected rise which took piece im the price of the renies, and whieh carried ‘them to the point at which they stood before the vicla- tice of the constitution, is eccounted for by the state. ment that large purchases were made for the purpose ‘It ie also ead that the brokers forced most of their cliente to clore their sccounte; and as these parties had Deen generally rellers, there was consequently « large amount bought beek. It appears that the price of gold st Paris, which = few days back was at par, was 8 per mille (atout te, 6d. per £100) premium. It may, there fore, be presumed that rome anxiety existed to obtain it for the purpose of hoarding. For the same reason short bible cn London have also risen. Several cffices ef papers heve been occupied militarily; among these are the Nutional, Opinion Publique, Messager Bepubique, Ordre, and vénement, which papers are eus- pended. ‘The coly papers published fo Paris op the 4th of De- cember, were— La Patric, Le Juurnel des Uetats, Le Con stitutionnel, L’ Univers, La Gazette de Prone, La Gazette Tritunav, Le Droit, L’Assemblie Nationale M.

He abolishes the Council of State, &c. I prefer, however, to give you the text of these documents. They are as follow:— APPEAL TO THE PEOPLE. Frenchmen—The P ogee situation cannot last much longer, Each ds: situation of the country becomes worse. The Assembly, which ought to he the firmest sup: porter of order, has become the theatre of plo*s. The pa- tristism of 300 of is members could not arrest its fatal tendencies. In place of laws for the general in- terest of the people, it was forging arms for civil war It attacked the pone Tad ye teem the 5 it encouraged every € $ gered one se Francee 1 have’ disslved it, anf make the whole people judge between me and it. The constitutien, as ood know, bad been made with the object of weakening fcreband the powers you iptrusted to me. Six millions of votes were @ striking protest against it; and yet I have faithfully observed it. Provocations, calumnies, out. rages, found me passive. But now that the fundamental part is no longer respected by those who incessantly in- voke it. and the men who have already destro; two monarchies wish to tie up my hands in order to over- throw the republic, my duty is to beiiie their perfidious rojects, to maintain the republic, and to eave the coun- By by 8p ig to the Sieren aoe of the only sovereign I recognise in Franoe—the people. I, then, make a loyal sppeal to the entire nation; end Inay to you, if you wish to continue this state of dle quietude and malaise that degrades you and endangers the future, choose another person in my place, tor I no longer with for a place which is powerless for good, but which makes me responsible for acts that I cannot hinder, and chains me to the helm when 1 see the vessel rushing into the abyss. If, on the contrary, you have still confidence in me, «ive me the means of accomplish. ing the grand mission I hold from you. That ion consists in closing the era of revolution. in satisfying the legitimate wants of the people, and in protecting inet subversive passions. It:consists to create institutions which survive men, and which are the foundation on which something durable is based. Persuaded that the instability cf power, that the pre ponderance of @ single Assembly, are the permanent causes of trouble and discord, I submit to your sufrages the fundamental basis of @ :onstitution which the As- rembliee will develope hereafter:— 1. Are ible chief, named for ten years. }. The Ministers dependent on the Executive alone. 8. A Council of State formed of the most di uish- ed men, preparing the laws and maintaining the discus- sion before the legislative corps. 4. A legislative corps, discussing and voting the laws pamed by ‘univereal suffrage, without the scrutin de liste which falrifies the tion. 5. A second Assembly, formed of all the illustrious persone cf the nation; @ preponderating power, guar- dian of the fundamental pect aua of publi: liberty. ‘Thi eystem, created by the First Consul in the begin- ning of the present century, bas already given to France repore and poms it guarantees them still. Such is my profound conviction Ifyou partake it, declare so by your suffrages. If, on the contrary, you prefer » go- vernment without force, monarchical or republican, bot rowed from some chtmer'cal future, reply in the negative. Thugs, then, for the first time since 1604 you vote with complete knowledge of the fact, and knowing for whom and for what you vote. If Ido not obtain the majority of the votes, I shall summons new Assembly, and lay down before it the mission I have received from you. But if you believe that the cause of which my mame is the symbol—that is, France regenerated by the revolution of 89, and or- geuized by the Emperor—is etill yours, preclaim it to be fo by ratifying the powers I demandof you. Then France and Europe will be preserved from saarchy, ob- stacler will be reinoved, rivalries will have disappeared. for al} will respect, im the will of the people, the decree of Providence.
