The new French ministry: M. Parieu (President of the Council), 1870. 'M. de Parieu, the new President of the Council of State, was Minister of Public Instruction from October, 1849, to February, 1851. In his administration of that department he was considered to have shown a leaning to the interests of the Church of Rome, to the detriment of the rights of the State. It is, perhaps, to that tendency that he owes the grand cross of St. Gregory, with which he is decorated. He is well known as a writer on political economy, and is a partisan of free trade'.
