" 5. Those who are guiky of contravening these Ordinances, shall be :brought before the competent Authorities. - "By the Atha of Police, (Signed) "G. DICLAVAU, " Secretary General, L. de FOLYG BRIM" The prohibition to employ or fire off any fiue•arms or fireworks in the public streets, or witl,in houses, is c nsistent with a good police, because the use of these things may produce sericias accidents. We regret that imprudent or designing persoals haie supplied this pre text for the calumnies of the Ministerial Jou rnals;aud for the measures of the police. It will be asserted m vain, that in the publicklemonstrations ofjoydisplaied bycommand, the use of these noisy manifestations is tolerated; popu- L istr fetes Night to be distinguished by decency and order. We ask Mu.Delerrau, however, what he means by meetings, or mobs, and tumultuous cries? A multitude of citizens walking peaceably along the streets, enjoy ing the sight `of the illuminations, that announce a con sikuti. nal victory, and a great bent fit conferred on us by the S )vereign; these citizens, manifesting their sen timents by vies repeated, a thousand times, of Vive le Itoi , must they be chit,idered as forming part of these prohibited meetings?— f the prohibited mobs?--do they utter tumultuous cries? M. Delavau owes this explanation to the inhabitants of the capital. We know very well that he declared in the good times that the streets of this capital belonged to him, but we pretend to believe, that in this claim there is some exaggeration; we think that the population. of Paris have •a right to walk in the streets and to meet in public places t it s-ems to us that there is no crime unless these meetings assume a seditious character, and that public tranquil lity is disturbed. 'Noe la Charte was a tumultuous cry a few years ago; some persons were astrinishe.l at this, but what mould they have thought if it had been predicted, that the proscription Mould be extended to Five le Rol? This reminds us t) at the censor of M. Ti anchet cut out of our columns, without remorse, as seditious, every word which announced to Prince that, in t h e Dauphin it had -a Prince full of Undoes., and a generous protector of its liberties. The election of M. Royer-Collard to the Academie Fig:waist. was Accompanied by a circumstance which we ought to m4ke known. Several candidates who had offerect themselves, particularly MM. Charles Dupin, [Amin. Viennet Ancelot, and de Pungerville, on hear ing n the prewntation of the illustrious orator. hastened to withdraw• their claims, in ruder not to divide the votes. and produce that unanimity, almost without ex ample, which has placed M. Royer•Collard in the Aca demie. Nerber the Della nor the Gazette, nor the Journal de. Paris announces his appointment ; they ap. pear to take it for an illuminAtion. FROM THU COURIER FRANCAIS Or SATURDAY. PAM, APRIL 20. EXCESS OF 'PRUDENCE 1N THE KEEPER OF THE Sset.s.—The display of strength which took place yes: terday, only served to confirm the good-will of the Police. Paris had resumed its accustomed aspect ; these were no other assemblies than those which form them selves around the piquets, to ask the reason of this mi litary parade. All the pnislic places were occupied by an armed force; but more particularly at the Place Vendome, before the Hotel of the Keeper of the Seals, where two battalions were drawn up. When the sud den orders for the troops to proceed to this hotel were given, every one imagined that a serious disturbance had arisen in some part of Paris. The soldiers them sel►es expected a contest ; but they found the Place Vendome almost deserted, and perfectly quiet, and this quietness continired till midnight, when this useless toil ceased. But what occasion was there for two battalions to protect the Keeper of the Seals? If the Liberty of the Press had been destroyed, one would believe in the sudden discovery of some plot or conspiracy ; but these designs are never formed for publicity. He, however, did not trust to his ascendancy for repressing a tumult. He did not attribute to himself the imposing authority of that President Moll', who " coup d'seil de l'homme vertueux, Calmait Woo people emu les floss tumultueux." But if there was no Mote at the hotel, neither were there fortunately any tumul;uous people there. There was a numerous body of gendarmerie at the Place de l'Odeon while the Tartqffe was played. The people, forced to move on, the injury fell on the 'Lea surer of the Theatre, where there were very few people. WAS th;t military operation directe ' against the Tara. es §'?? 0:le would be tempted to think the contrary ; for one of the Soldiers being questioned on that subject, answered, " do you not know that this is the way to Nfontr"ug e r There is, then, a panic at Montrouge, AS well as at the house of the Keeper of the Seals? DIFFERVIT REPORTS CONES/MSG THa MINISTRY. We feel that rumours of all sorts will not he wanting in the present circumstances, partcularly after the ex plosion of public opini n against a Ministry which France has long repelled. It is by the public hatred itself and its efforts that the IMinistry would now form its d. fence. According to some persons, the first duty ..f Kings is to be deaf to the wishes of the people, and the more a Ministry has become odious, the more firm it should he. However the dismissal' of Co unt Peyronnet was simian of this evening ; bet that we dnn't believe, as it is a mere trick to give a turn to the public indignation. M. de Villele, in order to allay the storm, would be well enough disposed to sell a good many of his col leagues at a cheap rate, if he himself remained in 'place. Some of his confidants insinuate that he might be charged with pursing the Ministry according to his own will; but he his, as well as the Count de Peyromset, supported a law, the withdrawal of which is due only to the wisdom of the King, seconded by that of the Dauphin. The preparation of the remedy for so many. deceitful and absurd ineasuree cannot be entrusted' to the fatal adviser or the hypocritical panegyrist. A great fire, of which the cause is yet unknown, broke out on she 10th instant, at one o'clock in the day,- in the Commune of Landange, in the arrondissement de Sarebourg. Of 75 houses 23 were burned, with' the chuicb. The house of the Cure is one of them. BORDEAUX, Aram 17. Towards two o'clock in the morning of the 15th inst, the beautiful sugar-house of Messrs. S :ulie, Joneas, and Co. on the new road of Toulouse, Nos. 29. 30, and 31, became a prey to the flames. The sugars which had been already prepared or were still in progress of being ma ' nufactured in this vast establishment, supplied the fire with so active a food, that,all assistance became useless, unless it served to prevent the adjoining warehouses from the conflagration a ith which they were threat ened. The molasses ran out in prodigious masses on all sides; the devouring flame rose to.a vast height, and • Abe glare of the fire was perceptible at a great distance. It cannot be said even that the four walls remain stand ing; for the ruins which remain so, cannot be suffered to continue, for prudence requires that they should be demolished as speedily as possible. The Lieutenant. General, Commander of the Military Division, the Prefect, Mayor, and other public function aries,*arrived on the spot. When the disaster was at its height. Baron d'Haussez, impel;ed ti'y the ardour of his zeal, did not limit his exertions to encouraging the work. men by his presence, but was seen on the roof at the very moment when the upper stories commenced to give way, whilst he alone seemed inattentive to the imminent tisk he was running. The garrison, the firemen, the mounted and dismounted Islunicipal Guard. and thou. sands of citizens, rivalled each other in their effor:s to narrow the scene, and to prevent the calamity from spreading. The principal of the establishmenr,and all his workmen, rendered the greatest services. No aeci. dents happened ; it is supposed, however, that a horse in a stable opening into the street of St Jean must have perished. The books and papers Which were in the ,warehotise No. 29 were saved. Four plates which was filed over the door of No. 30, indicated that four kn. surance Companies had, to the thwack of 750,000frinct (31,7501.) insured the premikes. The total amount of the estimated loss is stated at different sums. • . LISBON, Aran. 7. EXTRACT OF A PRIVATE LETTER. It is with much pleasure I lease the rumours and odours of Lisbon, and transport myself to the other side of the river, to enjoy the freshness of the river breeze uncontaminated, and inhale the fragrance of the vines, the pomegranate trees, the roses, lavender, balm. and odoriferous plants innumerable, with which this country abounds. The sky for many days has not been obscured by the smallest cloud, the fields are coveted with verdure, such as is to be seen in England only in the month of July; the heat, though great, is not oppressive ; and every ob ject, putting the inhabitants and their houses out of the question, contributes to raise the mind to that SUPREME Bitrro,whn,of his infinite goodness,has provided so many enjoyments for his creatures. It is hardly possible to imagine a climate more delighful than is that of Lisbon at the present moment. The app-arance of the country, too, is enchanting. Many of the orange trees are still loaded with fruit, the vines are in full leaf, wheat, and rye, and barley, are in the ear, some trees are in fell blossom, -others have their fruit formed ; the porensi granite tree, is beginning to open its red, rich, luxu riant blossom ; convolvuluses, periwinkles, hawthorn, wild rose-bushes, poppies, and all tl u different tribes of shrubs and plants and herbs, are in the hey-day of sum. mer. What a contrast to turn from these to the inhabit eras and their houses I In the country scarcely a house is to be seen with a pane of glass in the v. inciuws ; the apartments are dirty, the inmates still more so, pettiest larly the women; a crazy•looking black table, a bed without curtains, and one or two chairs, are the only ar ticles of furniture. The women are all without caps, many of the children are half naked every thing, in fact, brings one in mind of the scenery in the south of Italy. In one respect the Portuguese, however, are superior. In no part of the world, perhaps, is the linen so white and clean, and when the men can take the trouble of shaving themselves, and putting on their holyday dothes, they need not be afraid of a comparisoa with any other people. The fields in general are divided with stone walls, covered over with white harcipl aster, and all the houses have the same white appearance. The roads, with the exception of the highways, appear to have been made by the autumn torrents. They are generally six feet be low the surface of the adjoining fields, and on each side aloes, wild pomegranate trees, fig trees, brambles, &C. are growing in luxuriance. Superstition, if one may judge from the appearance of some of the Churches, is mast powerful here. In the Cathedral I saw, at a mo derate ealtulation, about 10,060 little wafer figures, legs, arms, eyes, breasts of women, heads, built, goats, asks, ( 1 , 4 • rk ii r ( r. I 4 ' i 4 I i ~ i h
