Life

Emile Louis Gustave Deshayes de Marcère studied law, entered the judiciary in 1848 and became procurator in Saint-Pol-sur-Ternoise in 1861 , president of the court in Avesnes-le-Comte in 1863 and councilor at the Douai Court of Appeal in 1865 . In 1869 he first made himself known politically with a pamphlet against the Empire : La politique d'un provincial . Elected to the National Assembly in 1871 , he joined the Left Center and in 1874 defended the municipal freedoms skillfully and with dignity against Broglie's arbitrariness.

Re- elected to the Chamber of Deputies in 1876 , Marcère became Secretary General of Interior Minister Amable Ricard on March 9, 1876 after the formation of the new Dufaure Ministry, and after his early death on May 15, 1876, his successor. He immediately introduced a liberal municipal law that was supposed to restore the independence of the communities and was also adopted by the chambers in August 1876. However, he had to give way to Jules Simon on December 12, 1876 as a result of a cabinet crisis. In the second Dufaure Ministry from December 13, 1877 to March 4, 1879 he was again Minister of the Interior. On February 28, 1884, he became a senator for life. From 1892 to 1912 he was Mayor of Messei. There he died in 1918 at the age of 90.
