THE ISSN PRANGR MacMahon Hurries to Versailles to Meet His Enemies, RESOLVED NOT TO YIELD. All Sections of the Right Offer Their Support. RUMORED HINT FROM GERMANY. The Orleanists Will Probably Steer a Middle Course, GRANT AT THE OPERA. [BY CABLE TO THE HERALD.) Pants, Nov. 9, 1877, The reception of ex-President Grant at the Italian Opera last night is the universal subject of discussion among the American colony in Paris to-day. Besides the Ameri- can escutcheons and flags mentioned in yesterday’s despatches as decorating the fagade of the theatre the city of Paris lent its collection of American flowers and plants to decorate the passage of honor where the President of the Republic usually enters. EXCEPTIONAL HONORS FOR GRANT. General Grant was received there by M. Escudier, the Director of the Opera, with all the honors. On the General’s entrance to the box the orchestra struck up ‘Hail Co- lumbia,” and the crowded and brilliant Budience rose to their feet. Generals Noyes and Torbert and their wives occupied separate boxes, ° BETWEEN THE ACTS, Between the acts General Grant smoked a eigar and afterward promenaded in the foyer, accompanied by M. Escudier. The crowds regarded him with interest, but were too well bred to follow him or impede his move- ments in any way. The famous Tamberlik took the part of Manrico in the opera of “Trovatore,” Little is left of the voice of the once great singer. GRAVITY OP THE SITUATION. The gravity of the political crisis here is becoming more apparent as the determina- tion of the Marshal to yield nothing to the republican majority in the Chamber mani- fests itself, ‘The republicans insist on a republican Cabinet; the Marshal, though willing apparently to tako a ‘‘moderate con- servative” one, will have nothing to do with “radicalism,” by which term he designates even the most moderate shade of republi- canism, THE MARSHAL'S REASONING. By some peculiar process of reasoning he has arrived at the conclusion that the mem- bers of the three coalesced monarchical par= ties—who each wish to overturn the Repub- lic, but who have each n different candidate for the throne—represent the cause of “order,” and that those who favor the con- tinuance of the existing republican form of government are advocates of ‘‘disorder and anarchy.” Any concession to the republican majority in the Chamber of Deputies, thore- fore, would be considered by him as a dero- liction of duty. MACMAHON ARRIVES AT VERSAILLES. On Wednesday last the Marshal-Presi- dent had a long private conference with his old friend Marshal Canrobert, and it is be- lieved that the result of the interview may have an important bearing on the action of the chief of the State during the present crisis, Soon after the interview the Presi- dent, dressed en bourgeois, arrived in Ver- sailles aud appeared unexpectedly in the private office of the Prefect. GOING TO MEET THE ENEMY. The reason of this sudden and unexpected trip to Versailles soon became apparent. The Marshal had been informed that the republican members of the Senate intended to make an interpellation, which he re- garded as the commencement of a vigorous attack on himself and his Cabinet. While awailing the arrival of the ministers he con- versed with the Prefect, and the conversa- tion naturally turned upon the subject which filled his own mind. SIGNIFICANT WORDS, ‘Vous @tes bien ici,” he commenced; “il faut y rester” (‘You are comfortable here; you shall remain”), % “Count upon mo,” he continued. “Imuy become a hostage to the Left, but as for being its servant—never.” THE TERMS OF THE RIGHT. ‘the Right of the Senate, under the leadership of Baron de Larienty, has as- sured tho Marshal of its support on the sole condition, it is supposed, of a change in the personnel of the Ministry. It is be- lieved that the Marshal will consent to part with the present Ministry on condition that a bill of indemnity for all acts committed in furtherance of their policy since the 16th of May shall be passed, 1 AM HERY AND MEAN TO sTay, In short, MacMahon entertains projects which he will not be diverted from by any action of the majority in the Chamber. He will neither quit power nor will he abandon 4] The attitude of the Orleans Princes now engrosses NEW YORK ae rene: SATURDAY, his friends—and among the latter are num- bered all the anti-republican prefects and sub-prefects whose removal is demanded by the Left. RUMORED HINT FROM GERMANY. A ramor is whispered around on the boulevards this evening to the effect that a note from Germany has been received at the Foreign Office urging the Marshal ‘to remain in power and advising him to select a Cabinet which shall be nattier radical nor clerical. fi CONSERVATIVE UNION. Yesterday evening after the adjournment of the Senate all the factions of the conser- vative party held a meeting at the house of Baron de Larienty to discuss the situation and adopt some joint plan of action. meeting selected five delegates to proceed to the Elysée and acquaint the Marshal of the result, The delegates were Marshal Canrobert, Count Daru, the Marquis d’Es- penilles, Baron de Larienty and M. Bocher. COUNT UPON ME. These gentlemen were charged to assure the Marshal of the support of all sections of the conservative party without distinction. The Marshal replied that they could count upon him ard that he would accept the programme formulated—namely, ‘The de- fence of the country and of society.” CONFLICTING REPORTS, All sorts of rumors ere in circulation. The greater part of yesterday morning's papers pub- lished @ report that on’ Thursday, alter the sitting of ‘the Chambers, the Duke de Broghe and his colleagues definitively resigned their portfolios; Later on a contradiction was given tothe report. Other reports said that the Ministry woutd appear before the Chamber of Deputies prepared to answer tor their acts, BONAPARTISTS AND THE MARSHAL. Apumber of delegates of the Bonapartist party waited upon President MacMahon yesterday and assured him of their devotedness. They say that the President received them very cordially. WORK OF THE CHAMBER, All the members of the Cabinet wero present at to-day's sitting of the Chamber of Deputies, which, however, was uneventful. The Chamber confirmed the elections of a suMcient number of Deputies to, form a quoram. 'PACTICS OF THE PARTIES, It is reported that the Right intend to interpel- late the Cabinet to-morrow in order to give it an opportunity of defending its system of , official cCandidatures. The Lelt, however, seem resolved to take no part in the de- bate, not wishing to facilitate the Cab- inet’s retirement before the reassembling of the Senate, as it 1s said that in that event it would be replaced by a tresh conservative Cabinet. There is so far no indication that the Senate will en- courage the ‘conflict desired by the Ministry. ‘THE ORLEANISTS HOLD THR KEY. M. Bocher, a leading Orleantst, who represented the" constitutionalists in the deputation of Members of the Right which waited upon President MacMahon on Thursday mght and promised fim their support, writes that the object Of the constitutionalists was to ex- plain that their refusal to support the Ministry did not imply hostility to President MacMahon. attention, as they can dispose of twenty-one hesl- tating votes in the Senate. | ORLEANISTS’ MOTIVES. It is generally believed that the recent articles in the Solei?, recommending MacMahon to pursue @ conciliatory policy, were the direct expression of the views of all the Princes, These utter- ances were dictated by the interests of liberal France on the one hand, and on the other by the fear of exile, which would be the ingvitable result of either a Bonapartist or an extreme radical suc. cess. A PROBABLE MINISTRY. It is said that President MaeMahon has received atthe ElysGe General Vinoy and Senators D’An- digue, Clément, De Montcolger, Velsol and Brame, who, it is believed, wiliform part of a new Cabinet of resistance. NO SECOND DISSOLUTION. It is also reported that at a meeting of forty constitutionalists of the Senate, including the leaders of the Orleanists, a majority voted that the party should not sanction a new dissotution of the Chamber of Deputies, if it was demanded, nor support the present ministers, SAMOAN A NEW VERSION OF THE AMERICAN CONSUL’s TROUBLES, Sax Fraxcrsco, Nov. 9, 1877, A correspondent of the Chronicle, writing from Samoa, gives another version of vome recent events there, already mentioned, Ho states that Mr, Griffin, the Americaa Consul, took forcible possession of the property of G.

The Russians lost a large quantity of arms and ammunition, but only a few prisoners. ‘TURKISH OFFICIAL REPORT. - The following despatch, dated Erzeroum, noon, yesterday, has been:received at Con- stantinople from Ghazi Mouklitar!—“At four o'clock this morning the Russians at- tacked our fortified positions at Azizie. Our troops, fighting with grent valor, repulsed them and pursued them four or five miles from Erzeroum. The Russians were totally defeated. Our trenches are filled with their dead.” A CRITICAL CONDITION, Earlier advices received at Constautinople show that before this success the situation at Erzeroum was very critical. The inhab- itants demanded that the authorities should capitulate, the expected reinforcements not having arrived, as communication with Tre- bizond was difficult.
