The women are invited to :cake up tri-cotaured cockades, the only national colour. " Brave Citizens of Paris—Your conduct during these days of disaster is above all praise. While Charles X. abandoned 1114 ca pital, and gave you up to gendarmes and Swiss, you defended your homes with a courage truly heroic. Let us but persevere and redouble our artloui, let us but put forth a few more efforts, and your enemies will be overcome. A general panic has already taken possession of them. We have stopped the courier they had dis patched to Dijon for reinforcements, and to recommend the Duchess td'Angou!eme not to return. A provisional government is establish ed : three most honourable citizens have undertaken its important functions. These are Messrs. Lafayette, Choiseul, and Gerard, in whom you will find courage, firmness, and prudence. This day will put an end to all your anxieties , ._ and crown you with glory. July 29.

But some voices, few in number, it is true, pronounced the word Republic. This word can only sow discord among us: it is hailed by some generous but imprudent individuals, but we believe it to be thrown out by our enemies. How have the Bour bons ruined themselves? By carrying to the extreme their prin ciple of divine right, and of an authority superior to that of the nation. How was the revolution of 1789 thrown away. and how did it lead us to the imperial despotism ? By impelling the princi. plea of the national sovereignty to the republic and to anarchy. The Bourbons have forgotten the cruel lessons of the past. After a lapse of 40 years, the French people are obliged to r: peat the 14th July and the Ithli of August, not to make a revolution, but to pre serve what the revolution has produced. Let us not forget, then, as they have done, the lessons of the past. If the na tional cause suffers itself to be led sway by evil court aels, It will fall in the sequel, like the B mrbons, and like them by its own fault. If it be true that the elder branch of the Royal family has abdicated, the interest of the country is then to take for its first hereditary magistrate. and for its king, the Duke of Orleans, who fought Jemappes fur the revolution of 1789. Meantime the Duke of ( htleans, who arrived at Paris this morning, has accepted the office of Lieutenant-General of the kingdom, and displayed the national colours. Yesterday the Court had sent some troops to anest the Duke of Orleans at 11 . hen it was known that the Prince had set off during tfre night for Paris, a Royal ordi nance was immediately issued, declaring the Prince an outlaw, and ordering all subjects to fall upon him. Two great wants have long since distinguished the present era —the love of liberty, and the love of order. These two signs equally manifested themselves in the noble combats of the capital. The people remain faithful to them After having giver. its blood to liberty, it is ready to give it to order. There is a means to render ourtriumph w o r thy o f the civilization that produced it. Let us trust to history. It shows us in England that the substitution of the patriotic William, for the hypocritical Stuarts, secured both liberty and order. Every thing was easy tor the cause of the laws. Blood ceased to flow, resistance became im possible,—Europe: and Foreign Powers opened their negotiations and treaties with England, after it was regenerated. Yesterday morning (Friday) Charles X. and the Dauphin reviewed, near St. Cloud, the troops which were still round that place Both of them cried " the Charter for ever," and Charles X. announced that lie abdicated in favour of his son. An expressive silence met this tardy declaration. When Marshal Marmont appeared before the Dau phin, the Prince broke out into the most violent and contemptuous expressions. It is affirmed that he said, " You have treated us as you did others." The Marshal promised, even on the 29th, to hold out 15 days : he did not hold out 15 hours. The Marshal has not betrayed them. On the contrary, he caused the cannon to be pointed against the citizens with the bitterest hostility. It has been observed that the foreigners at Paris, Russians, English, and Germans, openly declared for the defenders of the Charter. They received them into their houses when they were wounded. They brought them provisions and refreshments. Thus all Europe has taken some share in the 'memorable day of the 29th of July. The Mi nisters hide themselves : each of them accuses his colleagues of the misfortune that has happened to them. (From the Courrier Francais of Saturday.) Pax's, JULY 30.—. Yesterday, the 29th, after the departure of the Royal Guard for Paris, part of the inhabitants of Versailles funned themselves into a national guard. They took possession of the barriers, and made the pages and the detachments of the Royal Guard and of the Guard du Corps that remained in the town lay down their arms. Yesterday evening the division of Bourdesoulle appeared at the iron grate of the avenue to Paris, desiring permission to re-enter Versailles, in order to return to its quarters ; but the National Guards posted there informed General Bourdesoulle that his troops could not return into the town, unless they laid down their arms as the others had done, and that, if they used force, they should be resisted. General Bourdeaoulle did not venture an attack, and his regiment bivou acked on the road. This morning, after some parleying, an a-. rangement was made, and the whole division entered amidst cries of " The Charter for ever." This division was composed of a bat talion of the Royal foot, of the gendarmerie of Paris, both home and foot, a regiment of grenadiers on horseback, of a company of horse artillery, and a regiment of cuirassiers. Sevres, ;from: the com mencement of the park of St. Cloud to the bridge, is occupied by battalions of the royal guard, of the artillery, and of the Swiss re giments. Two pieces of cannon are planted on the road to Versail les, and two others towards Paris; but these troops do not amount to 2,000 at most. The Duke of Angouleme on horseback, accom. panied by two superior officers of the Garde du Corps, walking on foot by the side of his horse, and followed by seven or eight (larder du Corps, passed through ie midst of the troops. The Swiss alone received him with cries of Vive le Roi ! There are about GOO wounded in the hospital of Beaujon. During the whole of the after noon the Swiss were going towards Neuilly, throwing away their arms, expressing the most poignant regret at having fought, and vowing that they would never fight again for the same cause. (From the Gute!te de France of Saturday, July 31.) " N. B. The Gazette declares that it confines itself to copying from the other Journals. The following is from the Journal du Commerce :—A letter from Toulon, of the 15th of July, has the following passages The amount of the treasure which has been found in the Cassauba is not positively known. Some make it 500 illations. some only 300, but these are only conjectures. The fact is, that Admiral Duperri• was amazed on entering the cellars: heaps oof gold and chests full of piasters occupied them. The Scipio, Vibe de Marseilles, and Nestor, all of the line, have been selected to carry Turks to Smyrna ; but as there are not so many as was expected, the latter will be exempt from this service.: The Trident, and three frigates, are to go and subdue Oran. M. de Bourinont is to set out for Toulon on the 25th of this month.' (From Le Globe.) PARIS, Just- 31.—The victory of Paris has proclaimed the Oscine vacant. Even though St. Cloud should attempt a last effort, and though the partisans of the cause which has been overthrown within our walls should once more endeavour to take the field and maintain civil war, we regard their defeat as certain. As constantly and as loyally as any one, we tried to prevent the last extremities; not that any allusion blinded us to the faults of the system now de strayed; but we knew at what price even the most speedy revolu tions are purchased. Besides, who could foresee the miracles that have been wrought within the last few day's ? All compromise is now impracticable. The link has been broken by those who had he greatest interest in strengthening pt. Vainly did we endeavour, e'en to the last day, to preserve and even to thicken the veil of con. stitutional fictions. These fictions are reasonable only in a certain degree. When he for whose advantage they are raised up re jects them, when he claims the right of exercising his own personal will, —he incurs the responsibility which he demands, and tails, of course, the accomplice of the crime of his ministers. All reconciliation, therefore, is inadmissible. Some good meaning men have tried to bring it about, but without success. Even were an amnesty of certain acts just and moral, they could not he forgotten : a barrier of blood would rise between the King and the people. Imagine a King guilty and humiliated, stained with French blood, and conquered—a King at once odious and degraded! No, too, he must depart ; he must bid an eternal adieu to France. The throne being vacant, a great question prams itself, viz, what will be the government of France? Only two forms of govern ment are possible--a republic or a monarchy. The republic has but one fault, which is, that it is not deemed possible in France. perhaps it may one day become possible; perhaps it is the de. tinitive government to which all nations are advancing ; but its time has not yet come. The heroes of the last few days exclaimed, Five la Chart-!" What was meant by that al which inspired such noble conduct? May the charter, developed and amended by victory, prove an equivalent for the republic to the cause of liberty. Supposing this point decided, the next question is, to ----r whom shall the throne be given ? The name of the Duke of Oileans presents itself. The necessity of speedily establishing a govern ment is universally felt. Ihe Duke of Orleans is among us, and his situation is such that he may be the means of pacifying France, and saving us from the hostility of the rest of Europe. He has as yet neither popularity nor power on his side. This is an advantage; for he cannot presume to dictate conditions to us, and must accept ours. These are circumstances which may turn the scale in his favour : but far more important than all this are the constitutional stipulations which would prece le his accession to the throne. These must be thought of before every thing, and their consideration will be the first duty of the Chamber of Deputies as soon as it shall be I I formed. We have learned by fatal experience the nature of a con. ceded charter. It is now for the nation to make concessions to its king. Besides the municipal Government which Paris has raised up, almost on the field of battle, :cards another great national power, the offspring of another victory, less heroic but not less glorious,— namely, the elections. It was to defend and support the votes of France that Paris gave her blood, and it is for having violated our electoral laws that Charles X. has lost his throne. It therefore na turally becomes the duty of the Chamber of Deputies to regulate the provisional Government. STATE. OF PARIS. The spirit of Paris is admirable. The whole population are re posing after their victory, cheerful, and ready for a new engage. ment. The streets, the quays, and the boulevards, arc unpaved here and there, and carefully barricaded. The balconies and ter►aces are filled with paving.stones. The citizens who were not at first fur nished with arms, have had time to procure them, and are eagerly inscribing their names in their respective mayoralties. These popular magistrates, installed by the constitutional committee, furnish them with cartridges. On the other hand the military Government is disbanding, and its troops fill the squares of the National Guard. Few citizens fail to answer the summons. A provisional camp is established at Vaugirard for enrolling the patriot volunteers. Tbus Paris is secure. Two hundred thousand men could not reconquer, it. What can our enemies do with afcw regiments, already incom plete by desertion, and who shudder at the idea of spilling the blood of their fellow-citizens ? The whole population is in the streets wearing the colours of the revolution. Tile victims of the glorious 27th, 28th, and 29th of July, are solemnly interred. The most at. tentive care is every where bestowed upon the wounded ; the coffee houses, restaurants, &c. arc ie-opened, and to-morrow business will be resumed in the shops. After to-night, illumination lamps will he substituted fut the street-lamps. which have been broken. This illumination will be at once a thiug of utility, a token of public rejoicing. In consequence of the interruption of business, a portion of the working class of people has suffered from the want of money. Ready assistance ties been every where afford. ed them ; provisions have been cordially offered and accepted,— However, we trn•t that this suspension of business will be of short duration. Our enemies out of the capital, probably report that Paris is in great disorder. They deceive France. Those men who conquered the Royal troops with such courage, respect persons and property. To-day, having received information that the pri soners of La Force were attempting to escape, they proceeded thither, commanded by M. Jovslin de la Lalle. The prisoners have been secured. The inhabitants of Paris are requested to make gutters in the streets to enable the water to run off, the stagnant water being dangerous during the present heat of the weather. This measure of salubrity may be taken without endangering the barricades. At the office of the Mao a subscription is opened for the benefit of those persons who were wounded on the glorious 27th, 28th, and 29th of July. ROUEN. We have this morning received the Journal of Rotten of the 28th of July. It contains a letter front M. E. Aroux, advocate, to t'. de Murat, which in terms of the most decided indignation de nies all the claims of the Prefect to the esteem and gratitude of his fellow-citizens. M. Aroux %rote almost under lock and key, and besieged by an armed force. It was wished to force an entrance into the printing-office of the journal, and to break the presses. The troops of the garrison, the gendarmes, and three commissaries of police were there. M. I'isinet courageously kept the doors closed. The locksmiths, to whom he read art. GO of the penal code, refused to do their office, as was the case in Paris when an attack was made on the presses of the Temps. But M. Mangin was not at Rouen to send for the locksmith of the galleys. Finally, the po pulation of the city came to the protection of property and of the law. The troops were finced to retire. The order of M. Mangin, who threatens to close the coffie-houses and reading-rooms where the non li - authorized journals arc taken in, has beer. posted up by direction of M. de Murat. It has been turned into ridicule. Neither the coffee-houses nor rending-rooms require any administrative autho rization, and they cannot be closed. A consultation, signed by the ! first advocates of Rouen, protest against the ottlinaneett, and the violotion of the property of the journal. At the bottom appear the names of AI AI. Daviel Hercel, Thiesse, Thil (deputy), Laois, Fercoq, Cheron, Bademer, Grainville, Duputy, Hebert, Senard, &c. Despatches from M. de Murat, stopped yesterday morn ing at the barriers of Perlis, onnounce that the troops under his command are surrounded by time population of Rouen and its neighbourhood. He solicits aid from the Government which no longer exists. The armed force hse doubtless capitulated; for, a letter of yesterday evening, which came to hand this morning, states that the National Guard has taken up arms and assembled on the Place de Cannes, preparing to depart fur Paris. It is said that deputations front Rouen have arrived in Paris. HAVRE. (Retract from a private letter.) The citizens of Have have been no less courageous than those of Rouen. The garrison has imitated their example. CA EN. AVe are assured that an engagement has taken place at Caen, and that the friends of liberty and the laws have had the advantage of the armee& force. The Globe has paid hs debt of blood to France. One of OUT co. adjourn, G. Farcy, was kilkti yesterday in the attack upon the Tuileries. This noble victim of a noble cause has prematurely gained the object of his existence ; but he has won by his coulage the glory winch lie expected to reap only by the labours of his mind. While the late patrioticstruggle was going on in Paris, some young men who wished to propagate the impulse beyond the capital, hur. ried to the communes in the neighbourhood of Paris, and circulated proclamations inviting the citizens to form themselves into national guards. Yesterday morning at half-past four the tocsin was sounded at Mont Rouge, Vaugirard, holy, and Vannes. At Versailles, at eleven in the morning, the generate was beat, and the guard-house forced to surrender arms. The National Guard immediately occu pied all the poste. At Sevres, in the face of the guard-houses and of the echool of St. Cyr, which guarded the bridge with artillery, the white flag was torn down from the park-gate, and the National Guard took up anus and occupied the posts. Even at Boulogne. a commune bounded by St. Cloud and the Bois de Boulogne, procla mations have been read, and the people are organizing themselves in the face of the troops. It seems certain that the Duchess d'Angou leme has arrived in the course of the day at St. Cloud. Immedi. ately after her arrival, the departure for the North of France was determined on. It is said that Charles X. proceeds by the way of Chantilly and Compiegne. He will probably be followed by a very feeble escort, for almost all the disposable horses had been dis abled in the attack of the troops of the guard upon Paris. The sol diers encamped at Boulogne and St Cloud have refused to make any movement. The officers of the Guard had replied to a deputation of officers of the line and pupils of the Polytechnic School, who waited on them in the afternoon, that they were resolved not to bear arms in the cause of tyranny against their fellow.citizens ; but that oaths which they still conceived themselves bound to respect, pre. vented them from joining them in Paris ; but that they hoped soon to see themselves free." (From the Consiientionnel.) PARIS, Jrxx 30. The traits of the heroism of Parisian probity arc innumerable,' and all equally worthy of eternal remembrance. We would not willingly omit one of them, but the task is above the strength of the press !itself, which we may justly denominate the French Her. caries. We are only going to cite those which we have been able to ct.liect in haste at the present moment. This morning, the 30th, at the corner of the rue Montmartre and of the Boulevard, some citizens who were clearly modest artisans, passed along under the command of one of their comrades, who had been appointed their chief on account of his age, good sense, and experience. At the point of their weapons were fixed loaves of bread and some fowls, which had been regularly distribated among them. Several men of this troop, finding themselves opposite a wine -vault, separated from 1 it, for the purpose of getting some spirit'', but soon returned to their ranks at the voice of their commander. " To clay," said he to them, " not one drop of brandy—not one drop of wine, without water, must any of us drink. We must carry all drunkards to the guard-house." All the brave men by whom he was accompanied set up an immediate cry, " Our Captain is right I " and went their way, ready to fi ght, even fasting, ready to meet death, without any other stimulus than their generous and ardent love for their country, and. foe :liberty. A young man, mounted upon every valuable horse, and, bow Ms dress and equip ments, evidently of wealth, asked in every quarter for arms, in alder that he might hasten to the place where they were fighting, and that he might join hi the common defence. He perceived a good musket in the bands of a brave mechanic, whose dress dewier. ed him to be nothing more than a poor scavenger. "My friend," cried the young man, " I will give you 100 francs for your piece." " Oh, no, Sir," replied he, t' it's my best friend." " I will give you MIO francs." " No, Sir ; it has already brought two of our foes to the ground, and it will bring down more still. I shall keep my good friend.' At the gates of the Tuileries an MAL vidual, who was found pillaging, created himself by his own au thority general, formed a guard, and planted sentinels, with orders to shout every man who was found leaving the spot. The order was executed, and every body caught carrying off stolen goods was ' ' severely chastised, and compelled to surrender what he had taken. Some new trousers were found in one of the barracks of the gen darmerie. Some individuals, with a slight degree of rtuarderie, put these trousers on over those which they were themselves wearing. The trousers were immediately torn to pieces by their comrades:— there was an un a nim ous cr y amongst them—' We came here to con- , quer, not to rob." Here some poor workmen, having forced the shop of a gunsmith, who had already surrendered his treasury and powder, bought for more in all quarters, even among his furniture. In one of his drawers they found some money and a bill. One of them shut the drawer instantly, and said, • This is not what we were looking after.' Two brave mechanics, whose names we are sorry that we could not l e arn, h av i ng entere d among the first into that part of the Tuilleries which the Duchess of Berry inhabited, found there a casket of bronze, enclosing a large sum in gold. Overcome by the load of it, at the moment they entered the court of the Louvre, they asked a citizen to join them, for the purpose of pro tecting their treasur e a ga i nst i nvas i on . T he three then repaired to the Hotel de Ville, where the precious burden was deposited, without asking or receiving any reward. An officer of the Na tional Guard recommended an ordinary mechanic to prevent the people from carrying anything away from the Tuileries. •Be quiet, my captain,' said he 'we have changed our government, but not our consciences' The most perfect tranquillity prevailed during the night : part of the town was illuminated, particularly the streets St. Denis, St. Martin, St. Jacques, and the neigh bourhood of the Hotel de Ville. Strong patrols silently paraded the streets, passed gently from barricade to barricade, and disarmed those individuals whom fatigue and the heat of the weather, more Man wine, had rendered incapable of employing their weapons use fully. There real equality, the equality of rights and of duties, reigned in full force,—the difference of ranks disappeared,—all marched boldly forward to the same end ; all took for their rallying I words the cry of Protection to persons, respect to property.' Dr. Laberge, who was met in every quarter where the conquered were Ito be protected from the resentment of the conquerors, and where the wounded stood in need of medical assistance, had just placed the first dressing on the wound of a citizen, who had been hit by a ball on the head. A board was necessary to remove the wounded man. The doctor asked an agent of the police for one ; he replied, • I have no boards (brauca its) for such rabble.' It was necessary to find some other means of removing the wounded man ; he is now in the hos. pital of Charity. The officer commanding the Swiss Guard at the Louvre, near the rue de Coq, and 51. Duval Lecamus, agreed to I lobserve a truce for an hour. At the very moment these two gen. demon were conversing together, a public functionary pointed his musket, and was going to tire. The officer reproved him severely, and ordered his soldiers to carry him to the guard-house. The truce having come to an end, and the attack of the Louvre having recommenced, a brave man, dressed in a coarse blue frock, with • pistol in his hand, advanced boldly to the grate, and his pistol, which he pointed at the functionary, having flas hed: in the pan, he r.rimed it anew, ordering the guard to open the grate, or he would fire again. This bold summons obtained a prompt obe. dience. The Swiss retreated towards the Thuileries, and the grating of the Louvre was soon opened. A petition has been addressed to the Deputies, which terminates thus :—• On the sth of July, 1815, the Chamber of Represents. tires, under the fire of a foreign enemy, in the presence of hostile bayonets, proclaimed principles conservatory of the rights of citizens, and protested against every act which was calculated to impose upon France a government and institutions which were not in sym. pathy with its wishes and interests. These are the principles which we ought to adopt at present. Let them serve as a rallying point. The Chamber of 1813 bequeathed them to a fututity which now be. longs to us. Let us enter into the enjoyment of that inheritance, and turn it to the advantage of the people and of liberty. The members of a committee, named by a great number of the different arrondissements of Paris, meeting in the Rue de Richelieu, No. 47. Paris, July 30. (Signed) CH EVA LIE R, President. The squadron of enhance» which fought with the ,Parisians before the Hotel de Ville de Paris arrived at Versailles yesterday so audit' handled, that out of 130 or 150 men it could count no more than 40. The other squadrons, who have to reproach themselves with having charged in other quarters the capital masses of people, originally inoffensive, have experienced losses in the same proportion. What remains of this regiment is in despair and would be inclined to submit, if it might be, permitted to retain its arms. The Dauphin has distributed money among them as well as among the other troops who fell upon the Parisian populace.— It is said every man, has received 50 francs with a promise of receiving still more, if the guard can succeed in re-entering Paris. In expectation of that event, which the capital need scarcely fear, the soldiers fill the public-houses at Ville d'Avray, Versailles ' and the neighbouring communes, to which the effected their retreat. There they are eating and drinking away the money given to them by the Dauphin. It has been remarked, that among these military men this royal generosity is appreciated as it deserves, considering the desperation of their cause. To-day at two o'clock some regiments of the royal guard still occupied Sevres and St. Cloud. The bridges of those places were each occupied by two field-pieces. Tha Dauphin has reviewed the different corps which have rallied, and has announced to them that the King has abdi cated in his favour. This declaration, according to report, has pro. duced but a very trifling effect upon the troops, which that event can only demoralize still more. We are assured that yesterday the Dauphin went to the Tuileries to address the Swiss troops, who second time have sacrificed themselves, against which their country would fight, if it had any existence within its limits. The perfidious coursellors of Charles X. have persevered in , keeping him blindfolded in order that they might the more easily precipitate him into the abyss. It was only last Tuesday, that the most faithful servants of the monarchy, but at the same time the most sincere friends of our constitutional institutions, pressed the Prince de Polignac to send in his resignation. One of these servants ' of the King, not fearing to expose himself to a harsh reception from the monarch, promised to seek His Majesty, to present him with a picture of the evils which the maintenance of the ordinances of the bth of July must necessarily cause, to conjure him to hear the wishes of the people, and to prevent a longer effusion of blood. Polignac persisted in his barbarous resolution of maintaining himself in power, and of risking the crown of his master in a civil war. The blood which has been shed since must fall upon his guilty head. It is known by the returns made to the Duke of Ragusa on Wednesday evening, that the Royal Guard lost that day 600 men in killed and wounded. Those who saw the ensign, who on the 29th pre sented himself in the Palace du Carrousel at the moment when the attack on the Tuileries was going to commence, admire the noble courage of that citizen who advanced, accompanied only by two of his comrades. He advanced in ordinary time up to the triumphal arch, without having made a single retrograde motion, al though more than a thousand musket.shots were fired at him from the Castle, without any one, fortunately, hitting him. He then in. trenched himself behind he triumphal arch, where he kept his ground until the Castle was taken by the Parisians. Although the Royal Guard, the Swiss, and the gendarmerie have not spared the people, still the lives of a very large number of the soldiers Of this corps have been spared. They have drunk with the people, and after their defeate have been generously preserved by the people. ' Many of them have been received and dressed at the Church of St. Germain Auxerrois, which has been converted into an hospital. The galleries Vivienne and Colbert exhibited an affecting spectacle this evening. All the women who have stalls there were at the doors busily engaged in making lint and bandages for the wounded, POLYTECHNIC SCHOOL. In the noble and patriotic sentiments which animate and inflame the population of Paris,we take pleasure in repeating that the pupils of the Polytechnic School have been among the first to distinguish themselves. The conduct of these young and brave men is shove all eulo4item in these days of glory and danger. In one of the skirmishes with the Royal Guard, that body had, after its repulse by the citizens, left a piece of artillery in an unoccupied arca, to which, however, there was still danger in approaching on account of the firing. A pupil of the Polytechnic school,who was at the head of the armed citiztns, ran up to the piece, which he seized with both his hands. "It is ours," he said, " I will keep it ; I will die rather than surrender it.' A Cry was heard behind him, ' the brave are dear to us—you will be killed—return to us.' l'lre young man hears not a word, hut holds the piece more tightly in his em brace, and in spite of s shower of balls which rained around him. At last the Royal Guard was obliged to retire still further by the fire of the citizens, who kept continually gaining ground, and who at length reached the piece and saved the man who had so bravely seized at first. At the capture of the Castle, another pupil, who was also at the head of the armed citizens, presented himself at the railings. A superior Aker immediately approached. • Open,' said the young commander, ' if you do not wish to be all exterminated, for liberty and force are now in the power of the people.' The officer refused to obey his summons, and pulled the trigger of his pistol, which did not, however, go off. The young pupil, who ed all Ms sangfroid, seized at the same moment the officm LrthreTthrost, and directing his sword against it, said, ' Your life is in my power; I could rut your throat, but I will not shed blood. The dicer, affected by this act of generosity, tore from his breast the decoration which he wore, and presented to his enemy, saying,' Brave young man, no one can be more worthy than you to wear such insignia, re ceive it from toy hand. I have worn it till row with some credit, and lam certain that you will continue to do the same. Your name?' Pupil of the Polytechnic School ;' and the young man immediately tejoined his companions. The gratitude of the people to the pupils of the Polytechnic School almost reaches veneration. Yesterday one of these fine young men, who had taken no rest for the last three nights, tell asleep from wearingly on one of the mattresses designed for the wounded. When evening arrived, he was taken, without knowing it, to the Hotel . de Ville. and when the appearance of his uniform excited acclamations wherever he pansW - , those ahu carried Mn said, " Respect his misfortunes " The crowd look off shell hats, . 011 ti passed on.

Whilst the Royal troops, driven from tlier.calisaPP tal were stationed in the Bois de Boulogne, exhausted by rid s s t:4 4 . a :e tigue, the Mayor of Auteuil was required to provide them with Neu-'' visions and refreshments. The mayor addresst.d himself to ve . .:; "e• principal inhabitants of his commune in order to procur e them. The answer which he received from the most respectable of thera was this, —that in complying with his request they should be furnishing their own enemies with support, since three troops bad fired upon their brothers in Paris. However, from motives of humanity, provisions and refreshments were provided. The Doke d'Angouleme went in person to thank the major for the provisions given to his army (his own words.) The mayor could not help saying that all the misfortunes which now afflicted France, and which were recoiling upon the Royal Family itself, would not hate happened had the King governed constitutionally. At these meets the Prince turned bridle and rode off. However, in a minute af.. r. wards lie sent some of his aideinde-camp to the mayor to inform that functionary, that if he had any thing to communicate he would hear it with pleasure, provided it was not in the presence of iep troops. It is known that the soldiers of the Royal Guard had already received 30 francs a man from the Royal Treasury, in order to in duce them to fire upon the people. The soldiers of the sth rep. ment of the line have declared in their turn that they we re pro mised five.and-twenty, but bad only received ten francs a niAt , . The Archbishop's palace was attacked by the people. They did not commit any excesses at first ; but their pacific disposition a as altered when they unexpectedly found two barrels of powde r arAl one hundred daggers. From that moment the fury of the multitude knew no bounds, and the Archbishop's place was entirely devastated. Still none of the moveables were ap plied by the people to their own profit. Many were thrown into the Seine. The dyer vessels were carried to the Hotel Dieu. In some public square. and in the yards of numerous pri. vale houses, old soldiers and national guards are seen training to tie• management of anus the young persons who voluntarily present themselves. A young national guard, having committed a mistake in one of the movements of his exercise, was laughed at by tie spectators. '• I made no mistake," said he, "in lighting yeettniety the enemies of liberty." The greater part of the citizens are adorn. log themselves with tricoloured ritiantle. In a short time there will doubtless be unanimity on that point. Every other insignia, in point of fact, is that of a family or party. The tri.coloured flag is alone national. It is the emblem of real liberty. We have seen in the Place Vendome, and in the Hue de la Psi: ' several English ladies wearing the tricolour in their bosoms , and encouraging lite people to defend their rights, and to punish the Ministers who have rebelled against the country. The National Guard of Corbeil I.a. seized on the powder.mill of }khan:l.l4-1m important capteie under existing circumstances." THE ELECTIONS. SOUTHWARI ELECTION.-TDIS DAY.

Notwithstanding the unfavourable state of the weather, this forenoon, an immense concourse of spectators had assembled. The King, several of the Royal Family, Duke of Wellington, Lord Pill, &c. arrived at the barracks about half-past ten—a grand salute announced the arrival of his Majesty and attendants ; the hand struck up the national anthem, amidst the shouts of the people. The troops advanced and again saluted his Majesty, who expressed his high ap probation at the discipline and appearance of the men — they went through their various evolutions with great pre cision, the band still playing. Soon after the King retired. Kensington-gardens became the scene of attraction. Tents and Marquees being pitched indifferent directions, the females, elegantly attired, promenading the walks ; and the numerous assemblages of the people in Hyde Park. I made it appear like a camp; a large body of the police were stationed to keep the peace, but no person seemed inclined to break it. His Majesty had not arrived—every eye was anxiously looking fur hint-- but it was generally believed that he would not arrive before 1 or 2 o'clock. PRICR OF STOrk I AT FOUR O'CL CK.
