The following ts a translation of the manifesto:— To THE LLBCTORS OF THE NINIH ARRONDISSEMENT :— My Deaw ELectons—be Chamber of Deputies, elected in February, 1876, was in May, 1877, devounced to France by tue Executive power, coudemoed by the Senate and sept back to the country, its sole and definitive judge. Its right of legite imate defence bas therefore begun, and I now, on bebaif of my colleagues and myself, exert that right of defence of which no authority As for could, or doubtless would, limit the exercives. myselt, I took so slight a part 1m the labors of the dis- solved Chamber that [ think myself abie to be an tm- partial wituess ag to that which tt accomplished, and 1 do not hesitate to say with its illustrious President, M. Grévy, that it has not ceased for a moment by its Prudence, its moderation and its patriotism to deserve well of France. ‘Two Ministries have, it 1s true,’suc- cumbed since {+ assembled, but was it by its own act or by that of the powers to who presence it was placed? ‘The first of those ministries succumbed before the Senate, as its honorable leader, M. Dutaure, bas declared ; tbe second belore the rupture Vetween the Executive and tue natioual representa tion—a startling rupturo which tool: place on May 16 last, wholly unexpected and hitherto very incompletely explained. Let us seek this expianution in the facts shemselves, briefly but sincerely explained. When this Chamber (tie Ost elected since the institution of the Re+ public) assembled at Versailles, some appreheusion might bave been conceived in view of the multitude and eravity of the questions which were avout to be sub- mitted to deputies for the most part new, and as yet little accustomed to the practice of public alfuirs, Lt might have been icared, in tact, WHAT ARK THE PACTS? 1. That in presence of (ue evormous charges be- queatbed to the Republic by former governmeuts, the difficulty of coutrouting tuose cuurges might Oring lorth projects of taxation conirary to true faancial principles. 2 That the necessity of responding to the simulta- Deeus armamoent solall the European nations might juduce modes of recruiting ijurious to Lue good con- sUtution of the army. & That tue political manitestions of certain pre- lates toward neignboring States, and certain preien- Bions of the clergy, irreconcilable with tue old princi+ pies of the Frouch Church, migot provoke discus. sions which would be uslortunate for the good rela- tions betweeu Cuurch and Stat 4. Chat amid the geueral excite: Europe by the events in the Eust, the Frenen tribune, 80 loud-Voiced unuer the monarchy, mignt be. o less so under the Republic, and that there mogbt result therefrom fresh diiticuities tor the preservation o! the peace. Finally, that the attitude of the majority of the Senate toward the Chamber of Deputies, 118 disposition To agsume in ali things the reverse of (ie Known opiD- jous of the elective Cuumber; its olt-maatiested pret. erence ior the monarchical form of government; aud, finally, its claim effectually to imterneddie in the voting of ine Budgel—migut cause (he vreak.og out of Hangerous co. flicts between the public autnorities The most sombre proghostics were upon this point circulated iu all quarters As for myself, if L was not 80 prompt to foresee cooflicis whicn L was far irom desiring 1 was nevertheless nob exempt from all fear. With regard to army, it was proposed to reduce the tluary service from’ five years to three years, and this Chamber, ent produced in ‘Which bas been accused of tending loward the abolition | of permanent armies, formed a commission which Fejected the proposal ulmost before it was presenied. With respect to the ecviesiastical affairs, the public Worsbip estimates, by # singular concurrence oi circum slunces, Were discussed ul the very moment wen public Opimion Was most exciied by the charges of some Of the preinies, Well, these estim «| lett our bands iereased by several hundred thousand | francs; bo proposal threatening the Concoruat was re- ceived, aud the cuarges ia question, deplored by all euliguteved Vatoolics, incurred ouly the very mile gated censure ot an order of the day, But, 14 18 said, it would nave been better not to bave mentioned them, That is true, but in order that they shouid not have been memtioned, it Would bave been necessury not to make them. THR TROUBLES OF PRIESTCRAPT. And further, if after the frst charge ihe pons of our Prelaies baa Stopped! But wu second, more violent, followed the first; a third was in preparacion, and ib Was absviutely necessary Lo siop a disorder oi language dangerous to the quietude of men’s minds at home und to peace abroud., Despite these ieidents, we repeat that the public Worsutp esumates were not reduceu, Lut jucreased; the Voncordut rem .iued uuussulied, und all Geploravid discussion upon the subject wus avoided or thrust aside, With regard .o exterual affairs, ail ine tribunes of Europe resounded with it simulianeously ; ju Berlin, Viewna, Rowe, Loudon, Belgrade, Bucharest, Albeus, there nave been incessuas discussions upon The Eastern question, Every one spoke, even dipio- Matists, who are customarily silent, and who chose the bupks of the Bosphrous irom wuieo to make their voices heard. Europe bas been abie to fee if this was to the advantage of Paris alone held her tongue, aod in our Chamber of Deputies, wich, beiug young, might have oven curt. ous, there was but ove thou they greatly admired the skit of our d.pivmacy, but iu order not to udd new incitem uts to che univ agitation. There existed one iast suoject of unuappy Giseuseioo Which it Was best to avoid—vie, that which concerns the relations of the Chamvers 10 each other. In tact, On seeing the Senate engi Lo viect candidates the most nutorivusiy bostily Lo the Republic, ud willingly receiving proposals (ue most opposed to the feelings of the Cuamver of Depurts, there would nave been no cause for asiouisuiment Lad (hat Coamber made use of reprisals, in particulir oo the occasion of (he amendments maue by the senate im (he budget. On the gonteary, what nappenea? The Senate made seven ameudments in ibe vudgot. in England the House of Commons has ever admitwed the aucbority 01 (he House of Lords in tue matter of fivance; and if the jaiter puis forth in this matter A uselul ea, i 18 DOL permitted to produce it under the form of an ameodiment; belore ad- mituung it (bey wait for tuis Wea to come back through the House of Commons, i nis iact was known to all; it was stated by eloquent voices. Nevertheless, atthe instunce of M, Jule mon, the rgutor tne Senate, although very coutestabie aud very much co tested, Was adinitted, and out of seven ameucments five were sunctioued by the Chamver of De- puties, Tbs, it Will be said, Was vecause Lhe Benue was right. Let it be so; but im tbat cuse it was at least uecessary to recygnize in the Chumber of Deputies the merit of condemuing | and we wiil wax any o0e baving in bis Leurt of Justice, whether the Senate, treated with ‘ence by the elective Chomber, vas suitevly uoq fteelf im strikeug it With dissulution, For tie rest let us wait for some days lurtuer; the Juagment of tue Senate, which condemned the Chamver, will soon ve j Im ite turn by tbe coantry, our supreme and ‘ulate Judge tn all tuings MISUSA OF EPITHETS.

Under Cbarloa X., uuder Lows Paoilippe, unuer Napoleon 11,, people exclaimed ‘Let us resist!’ Waat was asked fur under Charles X,¥ Chat it should be recognized that the King could do nothing without the Chamuer, that ig to say, without the country, Resistance was made to 1 famous ordinauces. Franco did uot perish; it 43 the royalty of Cuurios X, which perishea, and all the parliamentary principles wer: con- sesrated at ouge by the charter uf 1830, France gul- fered, o0 doubt, but she soou Hourisued again, and ber prosperity seemed as thouxh it vugot to last # long while Uubappily, one point bad been moglected, Tue suilrage was too restricted. ‘two hunured thousand represented 37,000,000 of Froacnmen. he fact struck every ove, and it was said that 200,000 ctti- Zeus could not pretend to be the wuvie of Brauce A modest reform was asked for, which would have givea 30,000 or 40,000 electors more.

But ac leugth she saved herself; and, after having at- tempted 10 recreate an absolute Monarchy, she Las es+ tablisued tae Republic. France has not perished; but three régimes wave perished, and Franes bas been cruelly tried, to arcive at length, in three steps, at the mouern democratic form. She has uoceasingly ae- veloped herself, while remaining tho grandest spec- tacle afforded now to the terror, now to the admira- ton, of the world, and always to its imitation.
