O n t h at occasion, the re •en tatives of a free and revol u ti on i zed nation will asse mble in the metropolis of France to proclaim their acceptance of the days of February, to delibe rate upon the mechanism of a Republican Govern. ment, to dig the foundations, to erect the scaffolding, and to raise the entire structure of a Republican Constitution. A. morning more pregnant with the destinies of Christendom will never before have dawned over Europe. It will be the initial of a new civilization. Unless the ground yawns under the feet of the Parisians, and swallows up the whole hope of posterity, the first- der ofthe convocation of the National Assembly will be the commencement of on . epoch of emancipation and fraternity. In that memorable and illustrious Parliament of Democrats tb e bloom of the patriotism of France will be visible Tilt SUN, LONnON, SATURDAY EVENING, APRIL 29, 1848. in the conwregation of her most distinguished citizens ; all the genius, all the heroism, all the ex perience, all the aspirations, all the devotion of youth and all the wisdom of age, all the fervour of phi losophy and all the reliance of religion, will be re flected in the hearts of those Republican Legislators. As a spectacle—simply as a spectacle—the first meeting of the National Assembly will be an his torical incident of a very extraordinary character. It will present in one magnificent group the most con spicuous men in a remarkable age—an age of great ness in a hundred departments of intellectual enter prize. The patriarch of three revolutions, the con temporary of the Conventionalists, the sanguine and impassive spectator of all those wonderful vicissitudes which chequered the careers of such men as MIRA BEAU, VERGNIA•CD, ROBESPIERRE, and NAPOLION, will sit side by side with the youthful emissaries of the south, upon whose cheeks the down of pubescence has scarcely appeared, whose eyes are still sparkling with the hilarity of childhood, and whose lips have hardly acquired the trick of a masculine compression. Upon the same bench with the vener able DUPONT (the VADIER of a more peaceful era!) may be ranged the BARBAROUI and the LOUTETS of a new and more fortunate Gironde. The silvered hair of BERANGRI may contrast with the sombre locks of that cowled orator of the Benedictines, whose utter ance is an inspiration not unworthy of Bossurr. Next to LACORDAIRR may be recognised the spiri tuelle but somewhat lugubrious visage of Da Lam- MENAI& There will be seen the swarthy form 4' DUMAS, and cheek-by-jowl with the great feuilletonivt the Hebrew features of the abstruse CREMIEUX, or the boy-face of the petit LOUIS BLANC. In one direction will be the creator of Quasi do, in another the delineator of Dagobert, and, were there not a tacit disqualification against the admission of petticoats, we doubt not but that Madame DUDEVANT herself would rival by her legislative declamation the efforts of those contempo• rary novelists. C o EMENIN will be there with much of the cynicism and more of the improvisation of a true Timm ,. EMILE GIRARDIN will more readily redeem the accidental anomalies of his position in the tribune of a senator that: in thecabinet of a journalist. 1-i is eccentric moderation may not, by some happy fatality, be contrasted with the ultra-extravagance of an ALBERT or a FLOcoN. In the midst of this diversi fied assemblage of representatives, men of agriculture and men of manufactures, dreamers of poetry and rhetoricians of the pulpit, writers of romances and scribes for the theatres, sculptors, painters, tragedians, comedians, farmers, advocates, journalists, monks, artizans, merchants—in the midst- of all these, sym pathising with all these, beloved by all these, one re publican will maintain a certain amount of pre-emi nence—himself a poet, a journalist, a romancist, an historian, an orator, and a statesman. Every lip will have expressed the name of this great citizen before it is written, every heart will say, it is the author et " Jocelyn," the biographer of the Girondists, the Byron of France, the most touching of the pilgrims of Palestine—the chief ,nover, the Voice, and the Genius of the Revolution of February. Every tongue will have articulated the name of LAMARTINE, and every bosom will have glowed with the anticipa tion of his election by the National Assembly as the President of the French Republic. Scarcely twenty-four hours since we could not have indulged in these tranquil reveries as to the future progress of events among the Parisians. Now we can and do indulge in them with a boundless con fidence, satisfied that the gulf of peril has been over leaped. Of course we have as yet received very little more than an inkling of the result of the elec tions in the metropolis and the departments- Wey must await the arrival of the ultimate intelligence with tranquillity. Nevertheless, enough information has already reached our shores to demonstrate the complete discomfiture of the ultra-revolutionary party, represented in the Provisional Government by the four principal Communists, LEDRU ROLLIN LOUIS BLANC, FERDINAND FLOCON, and ALBERT .1 more glorious triumph to the Moderates led by LAMARTINE could not by any possibility have been achieved. Everywhere they are proving victorious— in the capital as well as in the departments. Every where the horror entertained for the Communist. Montagnards is testified by the majorities given to their antagonists. BLANQUI will be compelled to practise his aptitude for conspiracy upon his own tacticians, like the scorpion exhausting the venom of its sting on its own entrails, when girdled by a ring of fire. CABET finds even before the appropriate month of April has terminated that a mine has morally been sprung under the haunts of the anarchists, even at the moment when those anarchists have been making excavations to the powder-magazines in the cellars of the Hotel de Ville. &mama must disband his body-guard of mountaineers in dudgeon, and, supposing he feels so disposed, to annihilate the remembrance of his trea sonous schemes against liberty, he will find his crim son sash (until yesterday the insignia of sedition) an admirable substitute for a halter. Even PIERRE LEROUX. will have discovered by this time the neces sity of slinking back into a more congenial obscurity ; and the Provisional Minister of the Interior may speedily have more leisure to disport himself, in the bonnet' rouge, in the saloons of Versailles and Rambouillet. Particulars of the proportionate number of votes, already eounted out of the urns of Paris, will be found in another column, and in every instance those particulars will prove to be fraught with advantage to the Moderates, and especially calculated to attest the admiration of the people for LAMARTINE. In the first arrondissement, for example:: it seems that, as elsewhere, the name of the Provisional Minister for Foreign Affairs heads the list of the thirty-four successful canditates, 17,800 out of 19,000 votes having been awarded to him by that division of the Parisians. A similar result will be found ap pended to almost every other table of calculations, and satisfactory intelligence as to the majorities awarded to the moderate candidates has been received from the departments of the Aines, Aube, Doubs, Eure, Indre et Loire, Maine et Loire, Nievre, &c. &c.

JOHN MITCHELL, THOMAS MEAGHER and WILLIAM SMITH O'BRIEN, because a non; prosequi was entered to the indictment against the rormer gentleman on Wednesday, and similar rules were on Thursday obtained in those against the other ;nembers of the triumvirate. It is, however, due to the law officers of the Crown in that country, who have :,itherto acted so efficiently and discreetly, combining a wise and temperate but firm administration of the law with moderation and mercy, that this mistake should be corrected, and that the real state of the case should be fully explained. The prosecutions have not been abandoned, although they will be carried on in a different form from that in which they were originally instituted. Juries will have to try the parties in th e same manner , and for the same offences, and if convictions are obtained, exactly the sa me punishment will await the offenders. The Attor hey-General is authorised, by virtue of his office, to file i formal written suggestion of an offence com mitted, in the Court of Quee n ' s B e n c h, without the intervention of ex-officio infortn a tt gjand j ur y. Thi s i s t erme d " an demeanour on l y. and applies to cases of Whenevermis demeanour a capital offence is charged, or o ne that been capital, but for the merciful chan ges have that h ave b een i ntroduced within the last qua r t er of % ent the accused is entitl e d to hair in our p ena l co d e , extent, warranted by the °a ye the ch arge to a certain absolutezaajority of a grp o i ti r °f twelve men (the' ' AY) afore he can. be' called upon to answer or plead thereto. We find it laid down in " Blackstone's Commentaries" (vol. iv., p. 308), " that the usual objects of an information ex-officio are properly such enormous misdenzeanours as peculiarly tend to disturb or endanger the Queen's Government, or to violate or affect her in . the regular discharge of her royal functions." Such, for instance, as " seditious or blasphemous libels Or words," &c. &c. It will, therefore, at once, be manifest how appropriate is such a mode of proceeding to the offences charged against the triversers. In fact the very reason for granting this extraordinary , power was that persona guilty of such conduct should be promptly and speedily brought to justice, and not permitted to interpose the delays to which they would be entitled in ordinary cases, and to continue their mischievous proceedings, influencing the popular mind, and exciting the passions of the people during the intermediate period before they could be consigned to their well-deserved punishment. It may, however, be said that the Attorney- General, having, in the first instance adopted the common course and indicted the parties, should not have afterwards altered his mode of proceeding; and had recourse to his extraordinary privilege, and that the defendants were thereby subjected to inconve nience, and had some reason to complain. There might be some justice in this argument if the grand jury had ignored the bills that were sent before them. In such a cue, although the privilege would still have remained to the Attorney-General, and - he would hare been fully authorised to charge them by ex officio information, it would be generally regarded As an oppressive exercise of power, and the public sympathies would be excited in favour of the persons who had been thus harshly dealt with. Almost the last case of this description was that of the Orange rioters •at the Theatre Royal, Hawkins-street, when a bottle was flung at the Marquis WELLESLEY, the then Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland, for which Lord PLUNKS; who, at that time, filled the office of Attorney-teeneral, filed informations, after the bills for exactly the same charge had been thrown out by the grand jury. In the present instance, however, nothing of this descrip• tion has taken place. The bills were found (we believe unanimously) by the grand jury. No question could exist that the matters charged were proper subjects for investigation before the Court. A purely degree er d , to the merits of the case, was, technical objection, not going in the slihgohwteesyt forward by Mr. MITCHELL, who had previously boasted that he would interpose no difficulty of anv kind to a full, and fair investi g atio n , but that he would be as ready t o meet the law officers in a court of justice as- he would the forces of the Government in the field. Notwithstanding the boldness of his language, when the time for pleading had arrived, a plea in abatement, or what is termed a dilatory plea, was filed, objecting to the constitution of the grand jury, beeause one of the . grand jurors was also a member of the Town Council. Although there was little weight in the objection, it was at once perceived that the arguments thereon, followed most probably by an appel to the Exchequer-- Chamber, and from thence to the House of Lords, would retard the final decision for at least six months, if not for a still longer period, and that in the meantime the defendants would persevere in the insane and reckless manner which had rendered them so painfully notorious. It was, there fore, wisely and judiciously determined by the autho rities to abandon the indictment, and to commence de novo by filing informations, on which speedy judg ment might be obtained. We venture to affirm that no well-disposed persons can be found to dissent from the propriety of such a course, or to censure the law - officers for having had recourse thereto. 'Mr. MITCHELL may, perhaps, find that his boast is rather unpleasantly realised, and that he will find himself face to face with the ministers of justice more spee dily than he anticipated. His partisans and ad mirers may be bitterly disappointed, but the rest of the community will applaud the vigorous and decisive conduct of the Irish Attorney-General. .", , About seventy years ago (in 1777), when the dy nasty of the old Bourbons reigned supreme in France, and when England was as yet paramount in America, a young Frenchman, hardly twenty years of age, possessed of high rank, large fortune, and powerful friends in his native country, left them all, and, in spired by the enthusiasm of an ardent temperament and a sublime devotion to the cause of liberty, pro. ceeded to the new world to take part in the struggle for independence there commencing. He fought as a volunteer in the ranks of the American patriots, he shared in the perils and glories of the first desperate battles which signalised the American war, and his courage and genius elicited the thanks of the Ame rican Congress. But not his single arm only did he devote to the liberal cause ; he raised and equipped soldiers at his own expense. He returned to his native country to procure reinforcements, and with again proceeded to signalise himself in the great struggle. And so much did he there signalise , himself that his name became identified with Ameri can independence. So strenuous and so powerful were his exertions, and so successful were his endeavours, that it was said, with the ex aggeration of poetical license, that he " a vine ans, dun snon , le etait l'appui.' But with the glorious termination of his American career the wonderful events of his existence were by 'no means ended. Returned to his native country, he then took part in another struggle for emancipation—a. struggle more desperate, more blood-stained, and in conse quence hardly so glorious as the one in which he had played so prominent a part. Here also his post was not insignificant. He witnessed the downfal of the once powerful Bourbon throne but while aiding in the overthrow of that throne he was also—and to his honour be it rememilered—instrumental in preserving , (for a time) its unfortunate tenants. Marvellous, in deed, were the events which transpired during that one man's life. lie beheld a French Republic striving to emulate the great democracies of old, he saw that Republic fall, and give way to an empire which far eclipsed the glary of its most glorious prede. cessors. That too succumbed to the resistless force of circumstances, and the Bourbon dynasty once more filled the throne of France. Yet the wonders of this individual history were not yet terminated. He, who almost in his boyhood had stood forward as one of the leaders in a mighty revolution, appeared again in his veteran age, when passed the allotted life of man, as a conspicuous partisan in another revolu tion, which once more (and for the last time) hurled the old Bourbon race from the throne of CHAELE. MAGNE, and substituted- in their place one who was fondly deemed a " Citizen King." Had that veteran Republican lived a few years longer he would have had cause to believe, indeed, in the mutability of for tune, if the experience of his chequered life had not already taught him that lesson. But we, who have before us the records of f his life —we, looking 'upon the events of the present day, cannot fail to be struck by the marvellous chain of events therein chronicled, and more especially we cannot in consequence fail to be in a peculiar degree interested by that, event which has just now recalled the name of LAFAYETTE totrathi our memory—an event which transpired last ev e W ednesday, congratulationsminere ar na when the Republic of the United States of America, by the mouth of their Represen ncAltobteainsdtadheeroedr Republicw th a e s i among ong o f the recognitions Ffirr as first France. acknowledge the new Government of France ; but still acknowledgment was necessarily tendered with out the cognizance of his Government. Now, how ever, the agtonishing tidings of French emancipation has reached the ears and agitated the heart of the sister Republic of America, and the expressions of the joyful sympathy and cordial amity of America have been from thence dispatched to France. The address of the American Minister was responded to by M. Lsmarrusz—by that Foreign Minister who is so peculiarly happy in his various answers to the very various deputations which he is officially called upon to receive. Commencing his discourse with an appropriate allusion to the former friendship of France and America, and alluding to the fact of the Ameri can being the first official recognition of the French the first," he sa id, " to recognise the inde e e w n a d a k e s , n c a e n contested, dt'llb of the American Re blict Re public.—" hen young, e pu I of the . dercratio put w r h in ic c h ip u le nd lv e a r s fruitful. to the proportions neatly w i s ig h c e e o n le tu c r o y nti t n e en tn t. cre ß as y e the restrictive j us ti„ o f Po y. it bss belonged l `,L • ~ ~1~ to the American Republic to be the first to recognise the new French Republic, and so to affix its signature to the certificate of birth of French democracy in, Europe. That signature will bring good fortune to the Republic." After expressing his conviction that Republicanism would en dure in France, because he believed the French people to be ripe for their institutions ; be cause " what had fifty-five years back been only the idea of the superior tn&i.of the nation,. laad,passed into the ideas and habits of the .whole people,/ he concluded his observation by the following most *it pressive and felicitoUsly appropriate zentiment; by which he sought to convey the expression of the sensibility and gratitude with which France responds to the friendly assurances of America. " Every Frenchman," he said, " has for the Americans the heart of LAFAYETTE." Every Frenchman has for the Americans the heart of L AFATETTIL All the eloquence of LAMARTIN E himself would have been incapable of ex pressing more than is comprised in those few worth. This little incident may be regarded as the noblest monument that could be erected to the memory of LAFAYETTE. Now that his eventful career is closed, And his zealous exertions are at an end, his name if. invoked as a bond of union between France and "America, those two great countries equally dear to his heart. It is invoked l as a band of union at a time when Republicanism is established in both countries --when both are possessed of the full enjoyment of liberty—of that liberty to whose sacred cause LA• FAYETTE devoted his life from the early days of his boyhood to his extreme old age. It is right, then, that in the mutual felicitations of Republican France and Republican America, LAFAYETTE .should be re membered, and that remembrance is, as we have said, the noblest monument to his name. publique pis le tribunal de la Seine, 73,000 ; Luyneb, 62,011 ; I 6myer, 62,171 ; Besancon, 55,204 , Letivre, 53,742 ; Berville, ancien depute, 50,739 ; Peg Derre, 50,855 ; Nanny, ancien depute, 48,047 ; Bar tti:omy Saint-Hilaire, 46,299 ; Flandin, 31,140.

The - 21/oniteur contains 'a decree, signed by the members of the Provisional Government, commanding all proprietors of mortgaged property to make a de _ (Aeration' of the same to the Minister, of Finance, under penalty of being ,ob/iged to pay the tax of one . per cent. imposed on the owners of such mortgages •ny a decree of the Provisional Government published on the 19th instant. ,The Provisional Government , has given up the idea of purchasing the different lines of railway for the Stafe; 'and the question ii left to 'be dealt with by the. National Assembly. The National contains the following announcement on the subject : " The Provisional Government had the intention of purchasing the different lines of rail Way for the state. We have rio often said what we think of this measure, as to render it unnecessary to repeat the advantages which would flow from it to both contracting parties. Un fortunately, certain directors, interested in the prolonga tion of their splendid salaries, have not taken the realities of. the situation into account, and have made very strong and numerous protests against the project of the Government. From these protests and complaints they proceeded to accusation and attack,. the words spo liatien and•confiscation were pronounced; - 'and the real AifficUlties of the question were further coin Plicated by new difficulties invented by malevolence. In presence of this calculated'hostility;'what ought the Government to have done ? Without doubt it might, by employing the die ' tatorial power with which it was legitimately invested on its formation, have broken down all obstacles, and decreed the purchase; but the prudence and spirit of justice which it has displayed in its acts have caused it to adopt quite another line of conduct. It has preferred . to abstain, and to submit to the National Assembly the prtiject which it had conscientiously studied, after baying obtained the best information, and taken the opinion of special men, after having taken that of interested par . ties. It is therefore the Assembly which will have to decide the question. Such is at least the opinion, which is 'mire credited day after day, and which is justified by the delay which has taken place in the publication of the decree." The Commerce notices, as follows, the first part. of a report of the Commission of the Luxembourg : " The General Commission sitting at the Luxembourg has just commenced the publication, in the Ilioniteur, of the general account of its labours. M. Louis Blanc does not appear to have lost 'one of his allusions, notwith standing the unfavourable reception which all France has given to his theories. According to the lion. Presidert of the Commission, the dowutat of what he is pleased to call the regime of antagonism and hatred is imminent, and society only aspires to enter with full sail in the waters of socialism. ' Perhips,' he observes, perhaps the fall may be retarded by some temporary compro mises; and for our part we shall not refuse to prop up with all our 'power that old edifice which is on all sides ' splitting and cracking. We may be believed in what we say on this subject—we to whom, since the revolution of February, this perilous and ungrateful task has only procured almost superhuman fatigues, abuse, and ca lumny, calumny, too, from those very persons whose security we protected at the risk of our popularity, and sometimes at the peril of our lives. But let uo one de ceive himself—the time is passed for vain palliatives ; a desperate situation demands extreme remedies. No, . thank God, the situation is not so desperate as persons would wish it to be thought ; Fiance is not yet at its last agony ; calm and security, aided by a large dose of liberty; will be sufficient to restore her to health ; the constitution of the patient is strong, and the pulse goes well, although a little feverish. We answer for her cure —on this condition, however, that care be taken not to make use of M. Louis Blanc's remedies." It is evident from the following article in the RVorme, that M. LEDRU ROLLIN feels that he has no longer any chance of succeeding in his schemes by' legitimate means : The Reforme says : " We are among those—and we have declared it dis tinctly—who' only understand a Revolution in its most . logical acceptation, that is to say, as the renovation of ,the regime which succumbs for the advantage of the regime which it is desired to establish. We should never have thought, for example, of constructing a republican government with the elements of monarchy, and sve should only have proceeded to that task on ground well and duly cleared. Our logic, it seems, was wrong; but it remains to ;be seen whether it is really a republican government which was in view. There are so many ways of constituting a republic, that we may ask this question without giving offence. However that may be, it is under the influence of the servants of royalty that the elections have taken place—it is under the surveil lance of functionaries left in their places, that the scrutiny has 'been every where opened. You see what has issued from the urn—you see what an assembly that promise*. To judge from the first returns, the majority will be centre-gauche. The future constitution is in good hands. Still it is an excellent trial to make, and for our part we are quite resigned. We will await our repre sentatives at the task, and we are certain, whatever they do, that the Republic will not perish."

The amount of discounted bills , becoming due in Paris is less by 9,680,000 f., but the branch banks show an increase of such accommodation to the extent of 4,000,000 f. On the side of the liabilities, the notes in circulation have increased about 4,500,000 f. The account current of the Treasury has fallen off from 36,885,000 E to 26,360,000 E, showing a diminution of upwards of 10 1 millions of francs in the wee/4. The account eurrents.of private: individuals baminoreased a little more than 2,600;000fi. The amnpnt of the metallic reserve is at' .presifut' aboit 88,700,000 f. to 349,000',000f. of notes in circulation. The 8;11:12 total Of the PatriOti, 40111111056 to the Government, up to the 25th instant, amounted to 249,954 f. 77c. The Minister of War, on Thursday, visited the bar racks occupied by the 2d Regiment of Dragoons. He examined the buildings, tasted the food, and gave orders that every improvement should be made in the lodgings of the men and in the stables. Seiious disturbances took place during the elections in some, of the provincial towns. During the whole of Wednesday great excitement previtiledat - Rouen. Groups of workmen assembled in the Place'Saint ,ouien, and diScussed the probable results of the.elections. A man having cried " DES.. CHAMPS will' not be nominated ! " a crowd of men in Mouses ran after him. The National Guard having cried to stop them, a collision took place. Though it was without gravity, an imposing force of infantry, hussars, artillery, and National Guard turned ,ut, and the Hotel de Ville was occupied. At about nine. o'clock in the evening a band composed of 200 persons, passed along the quays. -houting, "A bas l'A ssemblee Nationale !" and "Vivo Deschamps:!" and singing the Ca ira. Near the Rue St. Lo a company of the National Guard separated the crowd, whe'reupon there were cries of " Down, .with the National Guard ! Down with the Aristo :rats !" On thj Place des Carmes a troop of dra. !Lions dispersed, a crowd, who cried " Down with the Dragoons`!" After passing along the Place Seim Ouen, which was occupied by the National Guard and hussars, the people dispersed. The night passed off quietly. Yesterday morning much agitation was again, visible. 'Bands of young men approached the Na tional Guards stationed at the Hotel de Ville, and nileavoured to irritate them by making use of insulting expressions. A false report was soon after raised that the , people had been fired on, and a general cry was raised of " Aux armes, on assassine nos freres !" At the same time a patrol of Na tional Guards was attacked, and an attempt made to• disarm them. This attempt only suc ceeded' in part, and the National Guards at length reached the H9tel de Ville. Stonee were thrown at the armed. ; force. A piquet of dragoons and some National Guards a chevul charged the crowd. and cleared the Square. In the mean time the barri cades were raised in several parts of the town, but they were soon carried by the troops. As night ap proached the rioters became emboldened, and at tempted to defend themselves. One man was shot, and another killed by a thrust from a bayonet. As soon as the conflict began the Government commis sary went to the Hotel de Ville to concert measures of defence with the municipal authorities and the commandants of the armed force. Among the par ties arrested and wounded are several liberated con victs. Some individuals, above the working class, have alio .been arrested, who are suspected' of having instigated ~the rioters, and it is hoped that all the chiefs of 4 ttne movement are in, the hands of justice. The Jonrnal de r Oise of the 27th gives a very long account of the events which occurred at Beau vais on, the two preceding days. About a thou sand of the National Guard unarmed, with a numerous body of workmen, went to accompan:, the sth regiment of dragoons some little dis tance on its way to Paris, the most friendly feel ing being' isplayed on, both sides. On reaching a place called the Montagne Saint Genevieve, the dra goons met two battalions of infantry of the line, marching with loaded arms, and with all the precau tions observed in an enemy's country. On being told ,by the dragoons that they had just left Beauvais, the infantry expressed the greatest surprise, they having left . Saint Denis in the middle of the night, in com pliance with an order which set forth that Beauvais was in a frightful state, all the people in the neigh bouring districts having marched in arms into the town. Cotitinuing their march the two battalions reached Beauvais, worn. out with fatigue.and hunger they havih'g had to march nine leagues after leavie l . the railway, and having had no food on the way. A cask of wine was immediately rolled into the street and the contents distributedatnong the soldiers. Man . ) of the inhabitants took the officers to dine with them. Shortly after accommodation was provided for boa officers and men in private houses. The workmen who had accompanied the dragoons returned in a body in the atternoun, and greeted the line witl every demonstration of friendly feeling. Meanwhile, great numbers of persons of Beauvais, having heart at Paris that horrible scenes were passing, hastens.' into the town, and were astonished to find everything traniquil. It appears, however, that very Brea: agitation prevailed, owing to what the inhabitant! considered the unwarrantable and violent acts of tins commissaries of the Provisional Government. Thy inhabitants had made two demonstrations, in honour of the Colonel and Lieutenant-Colonel of the Na tional Guard, intending them as a warning to the commissaries. But these gentlemen resporded by an act which excited great indignation—the suspension. of M. DANSE, the President of the Tribunal. DANSE having declared that he would not obey the suspension, but would take his seat on the bench, M. PLACE, the Commissary, called out the National Guard, the gendarmerie, and the troops ; and ordered Lieut. DANIEL, of the National Guard, to take his com pany to prevent M. Delos from sitting. M. DANIEL formally refused, whereupon M. PLACE called on him to give up his sword, which M. DANIEL did. Somi angry explanations then took place between 11.1. PLACE and some gentlemen of the town, and even tually the National Guard rushed into the building and compelled M. Peace to restore Lieut. DANIEL'S sword that very instant. Meanwhile the people, hearing what had passed, assembled en masse, and insisted that the sub-commissaries, M JOUYANTE and M. LEGOUT, should immediately leave the town. This they did, after being obliged to pass through the ranks of the people. There %ere then cries that M. PLAcE should also leave, but on the recommendation of the Mayor, and out of respect for him, the people consented to allow him to remain, on condition the; he should take M. FLYE, a respectable inhabitant, a.% sub-commissary. It was these events which led to the reports about the position of Beauvais, and caused troops to be sent there. On the day of the elections the inhabitants of twu communes proceeded to Castelsarrasiti (Tarn and Garonne) to rote, but they were told to come again the next day, as there was not time to receive the votes, They set out on their return, but, on being addressed by some one, a cure, it is said, they returned, and endeavoured to invade the place in which the votes were received. The National Guard resented, and a terrific struggle took place. The National Guard was pelted with stones, and eventually made use of their arms. On both sides persons were wounded, and it is said that two were killed. We read in the Coutrier de Lyon 'We are as sured that General REY, to whom is attributed the loss of the chests of arms and ammunition., which at different times have been carried off on the public roads, is in flight, and that a warrant for his arrest was issued, but he has taken refuge in Savoy." The following curious paragraph appeared in the Messenger Twenty-two men of the Garde Re publicaine were dismissed a few days ago for the fol lowing cause. The Government knew that armed men attended nightly at Blanqui's club, where they performed duty as police. A decree was being pre pared against this system, when one of the officers of the Hotel de Ville, going without a card and from curiosity to the club, found himself in presence of a post composed of his own men. It was about this time that there was discovered in a cellar of the Hotel de Ville a tube in connexion with the cellar where the gunpowder is deposited. After the disco very of this crime, which might have led to horrible results, the men who were suspected of being con cerned in it were dismissed." BOURSE, PARIS, FRIDAY, APRIL 28. HALF-PAST TUREE.—The very rapid manner in which the French Funds advanced during the week, gave so handsome a profit to speculators for the rise that many of them determined to-day to realise their gains. In consequence, both the Five and Three per Cents., which were at the commencement of business again ad vane*, soon stopped short, and and at the close pre sented considerably lower prices than the quotations'of the day before. The intelligence thst fighting had taken place at Rouen the day before (Thursday), and that lives had been lost, also contributed to make secu rities less' demanded than on the day before. The Five per Cents. opened at 69f., went up to 70f., and closed at 67f. 50c., being a fall of If. 50c. on the de f y. The Three per Cents. cpened. at 47f. 50e., and 'Atte! touching 48f., went down to 45f. 50c., at which they. closed, being also a decline of If. 50c., Bank of France Shares were offered all day, the returns of the pasz.week being considered unfavourable ; the last price was 1,393 f, or 951 lower than the day before ; Fives ( 11 40.Mlia at •6f,, with °bop ; R0Z414 lias risen closing at 56.

There can now he no doubt but that the official de claration of the poll of Paris will show that the eight moderate members of the Provisional Government have been returned at the head by large majorities, while the members of the Ledru Rollin faction will be found (ii returned at all) to have been returned by a mere "measure- cast" majority. Indeed, it was, be lieved in Paris yesterday morning that neither LEDRU Rom .iii nor FLocoN would be found in the list. of successful candidates. The general counting of the votes commenced at eight o'clock yesterday morning at the Hotel de Ville, in the presence of the delegates from each section. A-detachment of the National Guard was in attendance for the maihtainance of order. The Journal des Debuts says there can be no doubt but that M. i)E ListAarm Will he declared at the head of the poll by an immense majority. So signal has been the defeat of LEDRU RoLr.iN and the anarchists, that considerable apprehensions are enter tained lest ; they should attempt, by a resort to phy sical force, to make up for their deficiency of moral force, and a hostile movement on the part of the anarchists might, it was expected, break out this day. The funds, which had previously been regularly rising, had, it is presumed in consequence s 4 this alarni, fallen—the Threes to 451, and the Fives to 87}.3 The returns .from the Provinces are all favourable to the triumph of the moderate party. This;" as the Jaurnal des Dtbats justly observes, " will be a great step taken towards the consolidation of order, and it will be also a great honour to France and a new proof of the invincible: force . of public opinion. •Confidence will return, and with confidence, credit, commerce, and employment. A liberal and moderate Government, this is what France requires.", The following are the returns from the provinces. The Aational states that the following seven candi- dates obtained the greatest number of votes at Bourges : Bidault, the Commissary of the Provisional Government, 3,308 ; Bouzique, Mayor, 3,352 ; Durergier de Hauram.e, 3,116 ; De Vogu e, 3,194; Felix Pyat, 3,030; Paul Duplan, 2,987; De Boissy, 2,393 ; Poile.Desgrenges, 2,084.
