PAWS, JUNE 10.—Yesterday at nine o'clock, an assemblage of between three and four hundred in dividuals took place at Porte St. Martin. A con siderable force was directed to this point, and there paraded up and down for the interval of an hour. Atimilf put ten o'clock several detachments of cul minate, 'pre/yoked by seditiOus cries, galloped down the Boulevard, and dispersed them. They appeared mostly young men between i 6 and 17 years (Wage. Some men el mature age and suspicious appearance were observed amongst the . All the shops were dosed. They re-assembled on the Plate de l'Es. trapade, whither tmops were sent, on whose ap pearance these champions of the Charter (Chartiers) peaceably withdrew. Yesterday vety considerable assemblages took place on the Boulevards du Temple. The cries of " the Charter for ever !" were frequently heard.— Detachments of cavalry promptly dispersed them in a determined manner. It is said that many persons have been wounded. 'the The orange walk, fronting the Carousal, continues occupied by a battalion of the infantry of the Royal Guard. Sentries are stationed all round the Tuile ries, and no person is permitted to stop near these limits. The number of the national guard on duty at the Chamber of Deputies is now considerably augmented. The regiment of Hussars of the Royal Guard, which was in garrison at Compsegne, arrived yester day in the suburbs of the capital. Lieutenant-Colonel Burlier Dufay, known as connected with the deplorable affair of M. de St. Morys, was taken into custody by two gendarmes, in the crowd that was proceeding to witness the ex ecution of Low/el. It is sian announced that Gen. Freyssinet, General Solignac, and the Chef d'Esca. dron Duvergier, have been arrested. The Gazelle de France says—" Many foreigners were about to leave Paris, to the great regret of our maitre. d'hotel and shop-keepers ; but as they now see that tranquillity is re-established, and that strength rests with the laws, they have suspended their preparations for departure. The good people, who consider the money which foreigners spend iu Paris as a very legitimate source of profit, endeavour to inspire them with confidence, in spite of the at tempts of the enemies of order, whom they aptly denominate (Chartism) Chartists. Pants, JUNE 12. On Saturday evening the tranquillity of the capital was not disturbed: Nu merous corps of troops were sutlers'/at all the dif ferent points where assemblages were apprehended; - but their interference was not rendered necessary by any tumults. Sense mmaingalstols pilleey. but -.they appeared to be persons fur the most' part assembled from curiosity; they dispersed on the first intima tion of the Police-officers. Up to this moment CHAMIiEII OF DEPUTIES, Jcrat 9. The debates on the articles of the election law was again resumed. M. Buin proposed an amendment, which, as altered in the course of the debate, is as follows: " The colleges of the department shall be com posed of those electors who pay the large amount of taxes, who shall be in number equal to the fourth of all the electors of the department. " These colleges shall elect 172 deputies; this election shall take place in IVO, conformably to the table annexed to the present law. [This table is to determine the distribution of the 172 new deputies moon;; the departments; and on the suggestion of the Keeper of the Seals, this distribution is to be made by an ordinance, which shall be submitted for the approbation of the Chamber in the course of the next session.] " The electoral colleges of the arrondissements, to be established agreeably to the first article of the law in each department. shall each name a deputy. These colleges shall be composed of all the electors, having tlitir political domicile in one of the com munes comprised in the limits of each electoral arrondissemnt. These limits shall be provisionally fixed for each department, according to the recom mendation of the Council General, by ordinances of the King, which shall be submitted for legislative approbation in the next session. Tilt fifth of the present deputies, to be renewed for the next session, shall be elected by the colleges of arrondisstment. "`For the succeeding sessions, the departments Which have to renew their deputies shall nave them according to the basis established by the first article uf.the ." This amendment, tending materially to modify the tenour of au enticement in the original projel, was adopted by a nmjmity of 119. It was iusinu. tactl by a speaker of the c4c gituele that this wnendluent emanated front the Jlini►ters, who, (Sunday night, eleven o'clock) all has remained quiet. The troops, however, are all under arms, and the National Guards patrole the streets. On Saturday evening various regiments of in fantry and cavalry, and a corps of artillery, were drawn up in the neighbourhood of the theatres.— The assembled crowd uttered cries of The Charter for ever I' but the military did not charge, nor was the public order sensibly disturbed. The evening of Friday was most deplorable. The Marquis de Boisgelin, Peer of France, has been appointed Aide-Major General of the Parisian National Guard. _ _ It is not yet ascertained how the Duke de Reggio was wounded during the tumult of Friday evening. He has been twice bled. The King and Princes send to make inquiries after his health. The Gazelle de France states—" We hear from Grenoble, under date the sth inst., that some dis orders were committed there during the night of the i l / 4 1 inst. An individual, named Lemaire, has been taken into custody, on whose person were found thirty copies of a seditious pamplet, entitled Things as they are.' " THE CORONATION. The preparations for the Coronation are active and anal:ating. They hare now assumed a shape sod de cided form, that gives some information as to the dispo sal of the company who are to witne4 the august cere mony. In Westmiuster Hall and Abbey this is particu larly the case. lii the Hall, not only is the platfui in entirely completed, but the frame work for the side gal leries is erected. The lower part of each galLry is tc:l feet trom the platform ; and the flooring of the galler, is also about ten feet in depth, seals rising regularly one above the other. Behind is a passage to enable the company to pass to the several boxes or seats. Under neath these galleries will be assembled the company at the outer tah!es, and the attemiatits at them, well as affording room for those who may hate to pass to cite other tattles. The Court in which the Lord Chancellor was wont to sit during remit-time no longer exists: the flouting, the !tenches, the S:at of Equity, are a . . 1 gone. The iii t,q,te figuiro are covered over with canvas, and will spvediiy Like titeir siaiiin,s at the sick of the great win dow.

In Westminster Abbey. similar progress attends the pro ceedings. The platform is raised alotii; tile nave; the COURT OP CLAIMS. Oit Friday the adjourned Court was held at one o'clock. lo consequence of the funeral of Mr. Grattan, very few Commissioners attended, and the examination of claims was postponed to the lanvr end of next week, when it is supposed the Court will be dissolved. Upon this occasion Sir John Nicholl presided. The Duke of Clarence sat at his right hand, and frequently questioned the petitioners and the different agents of those who put in claws. Below the bar a great number attended. Amongst the crowd were several ladies, whose cariosity was prin cipally excited by the report that an Irishman of one of the first families of that country was to put in a claim to wait upon the King. with a measure of potatoes in golden trough at the Coronation, a claim said to have been established at the last Coronation. Whether such a claim was put in or not upon the present occasion, we canuot pretend to say, fur tiotwithstand:ug the oast awsious attention of our eorrespoodetu. it we, with dif. funky he caught the names and objects of any Of the applicants. A Petition was presented from the Earl of Shrews bury, praying to he allowed to perform the service of Steward (doll liclaiid,and to enjoy all the privilizea and fees appertaining to that office. A Petition was preseittcd from Thomas Ware, Esq. as Lord of the Manor of -, Gloucestershire, pray ' ing to be allowed to hold a basin and ewer, containing water, to the Sovereign; after which service he prayed to appropriate to his own use, and to leave as an whea l . Lance to his successors, the said basin and ewer, being of gold. A Petition Was presented by Dillon, Evq. Barrister at Law, from a Guotlemm of the same name, who is on foreign service, to be allowed to perform the service of Lord High Chamberlain at the Coronation. We un dersterid the Petition to pray that a substitute should he. allowed to attend in toe person of the Learned Cootewl. Sir Patrick Walker pr, , ,emed a Petition, praying that h e ini a ht be allowed to perlOr.ii the service of Usher of the White Rod at the Coronation. A Pelntuit was resented by James Edward Deseret, x. of Ctriainctian, in the county of Wexford, Esq. whiett caused some astonishment amongst tite Commissioners. It stated, that the Petitioner, as heir to %Valiant D.:- vcreux, second Earl of Salisbury, prayed that he tuui,.ilit b%.. allowed to perform the service " gerentli cirg.nu ac ream in s iiiiiii 'nate colunibarn auream," accou . ding to the latest translations, " of carrying a golden rod, and a golden dove on the top thereof," before oar (beat( Soveueign and Lord, according to feudal phraseology, at his Coronation, in the same manner as the same golden rod was carried before Richard the First, at his Col a. nation, by the above-named William Devereux. The Petition also prayed that the Petitioner might Le allowed to carry the siiken canopy, 5111-ported by four, lances, or as it is stated in the Petitioner's prom— " PJllllll+ mirth; tram Laticeis superpotntsis" ot.n ith• dread Sovereign and 1,.:11 the King at his Coronation, as the said canopy was carried by the aforesaid Devcreux. The Petition concluded %volt n request that the Petitioner might be allowe.l to perform one of :he said services by deputy. Mr. Devereux said, his claim was supported in every respect by historical proof, and eilithc!.l,C dm:aim:ma.
