"How true was the opinion of M. Dantès respecting the National Guard!" said Marrast.
"How true also respecting the workmen!" said Albert.
"How true respecting the Ministry!" said Ledru Rollin. "But where is M. Dantès? Why is he not here?"
At that moment the private door opened, and M. Dantès, Flocon and Lamartine entered.
"The news from the Chambers!" cried Marrast, as they approached.
"Three impeachments of the Ministry have been proposed," said Lamartine.
"By whom—by whom?" asked Louis Blanc. "By whom presented?"
"One by Odillon Barrot, one by Duvergier d'Hauranne and one by M. de Genoude, Deputy from Toulouse."
"And what said Guizot?" asked Marrast.
