MADMAHON'S VIEWS ON THE SITUATION
PAR18, July 22nd, President MacMahon, in response to a de putation of members of the Assembly, who waited upon him, said he was not summoned to power in order to restore the Mouareby or Empire, and his acte proved that he would not participato in such enterprises. The law which created the Soptenuate still lose imposed upon him the task of constituting a definite Republic. M. Perier's bill offered him nothing, hit by isolation bid from the Conservative party, by whose aid he wished to gover, would deprive him of mtel; oonsequently the Ministers would deplore in bie name that ho rejected the project, In conclusion be expressed this opinion that a proclamation of the Republic might disturb the criler and peace, but if the laws he asked: for were voted the Septendste wonta become i
government calculated to inspire confidence and

It is now understood that tas Gorernment. to-morrow will demand of the assembly the adoption of laws referred to by the Trident viz Constitutiezol bill drawn up by the Com. mittee of Thirty, together with threuadditionul metemos proposed by the Minister of the Interior to the Committer on the 10th ins6.
