Aii important debate is expected in the French Senate to-day. An interpellation will be addressed by E, Aodfeau de Kerd nel "to -the Ministers as to how they have instructed officials to act with regard to the electoral inquiry voted by the Chamber of Deputies.

The conservative papers say this pro ceediugis designed to express the Senate's confidence in President MacMahon and en able the present Cabinet to honorably make way for a sincerely conservative, but more moderate Ministry. The organs of the Left consider that the proposed in terpellation conceals a snare and is danger ous and unconstitutional. .
