The debate in the French Chamber of Deputies, on the - result
of which the existence of the TRIERS Ministry depended, com- menced on Tuesday, and was not terminated when the letters and papers were despatched from Paris on Wednesday afternoon. So much interest had seldom been excited in the French metropolis by a Parliamentary awl p,trt■- conflict. :It appeared:-to be the general impression, that a delcat of Ministers--would lea to conse. quences for more serious than an ordinary "Ministerial crisis." The King, it is said, was very uneasy, though prepared to adopt a policy of repression, and engage Conservative Ministers should TIIIERS be beaten. Timms himself opened the debate on Tues- day : he spoke calmly and even tamely, but with much adroitness endeavoured to persuade fhe Chamber that his " intermediary" Cabinet was the only one practicable in the existing state of par- ties : he declared that he had refused to become President of the Council until he had received positive refusals from Marshal SOULT and the Duke DE BROGLIE to take that office.
It was generally believed that the Ministers would have a ma- jority of 20 or 25. The Duke Of ORLEANS supports TRIERS, and in some degree influenced the King to accept him as Premier.
