The first portion of the Jocument was listened to in profound silence, but wien it became evident that in order to place the acts of tne present administration in a more brilliant light ne was dis- posed to indiscriminately blame~ the imperial gov- ernment there appeared numerous signs of disap- probation. At the end of the session I heard re- Publican and conservative members strongly depre- cating the language wich the President 1atroduced in blaming the Jate administration for the purpose ot contrasting 1¢ with what nad been done by lus (M, Thiers’) government, especially when, aliuding to the appolutmenis of Prefects and ower provin- Clal ofcers, the President observed that the govern ment Oilicers in the provinces had been chosen with- out regard to party spirit, and that genius, ‘ability and talent only had been consulted in making the selections among public officers, At this there was @n outburst Gf disapproval which seemed not a lutle to astonish M. Theirs, The interraption which he met was repeated when he again alluded to the errors comnutied by tne late Imperai government, aud spoke of them as the consequences of personal rule, The loud and numerous cries of “Ol! oh 1? Plainly denoted that the contrast between the late ang the present administration is not considered to exist to that extent waich M.
