Wo have veen spectatgrs of w new sceno parliament. A member of the ministry cuffed a deputy 1 .do not know now the affair will oud, but this 13 how it began: About a fortnight ago M. Rochefort published 1t I'lntransigeant, a series of articles entitled: *I'e Golden Book of Cons! ' The article made cer- n accusations against Mr. Const miu ister of the interior, and coupled his namo with the Viol affaire—a young girl—in 1850, and charged positively that ho was the pro prietor of & house of bad repute in Toulaise, M. Constans did not reply whic must be said, had a bad effect even upon bis own fol lowers. [Copyrighted 187 by s Words Resented by Blows, At the session today MM. le Sennene and Laurs,, Boulangist desircd 1o question th government upon What measures were to be taken against the journal which made the ac cusation. The object was to put M, Constans on the defensive, M. de Freycinet, minister of war, replicd that the government had 1o desire to adver- tise the articles from the floor of the house. M. Laur mountcd the tribuiie and said that not to reply was to trample on the rights of the minority, but that the nation would be the judge of those despicable men. “The moment these words were uttered M Constans jumped to his feet. M. de F'rey- cinet noticed him but did not divine his intention. M. Coustaus quickly threw off bis overcoat. M. Ktienne, colonial secrotary, svizod bimn by the arm, but the angry winis. ter, frecing himsol( from the grasp, leaped toward the tribune and dealt M. Laur a couple of sounding whacks on the ear. The wholo chamber rose in excitoment, President Floquet rang his bell for order, Other Encounters Followed. According to the rules the session ended when violence was done within the precincts of Parliament, but everywhere the membors angrily disputed with'cach other. M. Del pech, & republican, and M. Castelin, a Bou- langist, had hot words and came to blows, Tho deputios struggled out into tho lobbies, and there more hoxing matches took place. 1t was one of the most scandalcus scenes ever witnessed and lasted nearly one hour. According to the rules, when one member strikes another, 1he ageressor is liavle to ex- pulsion, but M. Constans is not a deputy, hut a senator, aud thercfore cannot be expelled from the Chamber. Parliamentary experts areat their wits' end 1 bis case, Apologized to the Ch At half-past 6 tho session was reopened and all was quiet. M. Constans took tue speaker's stand and said that he was very wuch grieved. For seventeer years he had had the honor of representing tho people in the Chamber or the Senate, and he had never done anything to necossitate his beiny called to order. But on this occasion he had yielded t5 a just feeling of indiguation. e hud been unavle to master his emotions and thereforo he begged to tender his apologies to his colieagues. His speech was loudly applauded by the greater part of tho houso, "The provious question was then put and carried by 434 to 44 votes. What Will the End Be? This torminated the parliamentary ceedings, but what M. Constans and cont Carnot will do is now the ton. If M. Laur should challenge M. Constans the latier will fight the deputy, notwithstanding the law forbids a 'min- ister to fight a ducl. But if M. Lour brings M. Constans bsfore the courts for the assault be will be obliged to resign, Also, this may be tho end of the affair. Yet M. Uonstans is put in a very delicats and ailicult situation, and his influence is diminished vecause of the shameful scene of today. If he was not guilty he ought to have prosecuted M. Rochefort in the courts. It is wuch more dignificd for a_man who has tho honor of being a ministerof France to cudure insults than to strike the insulter, Dispatches from Rome say that the pope is suffering from influenza. 1t is added that in consequence thers is considerable auxioty manifested at the vatican, Jacques St. Wungarian Riots. Buna Pestir, Jua, 19%.—A political meeting was bield in & small town in the southeastern part of Hungary on Sunday, which in o sbort time degenerated into a free fight in which all sorts of weapous wore used.
