The measures taken by the Chamber:: to stnt - non to the defence of the , Conti. try all the men to bear arms will pro ince a great numhtr of battalions, if the leryic tg, the brigading, and the formation of them are j , nessed with' all possible activity. The loss of our a tateriel, may be repaired. We have at Paris 300 ph. :ces of cannon, withtheir munition s ; the half of 'them would replace those we have lost. Let the ( :ham -I)ers take the necessary measures, and in 24 hours acity like Paris could furnish the necessary h orses and conductors. , - I cannot too strongly repeat, that the re cent catastrophe should not discourage a great gnd noble nation. If we have the necessary enerL our calamities will only set off our glory ; an ti what sacrifice should seem great to the true friends of their country, at a moment when the Sovereign whom we lately proclaimed and invested with our confidence has just made the greatest (.f sacrifices After the battle of Callum the Roman Senate voted thanks to the vanquished General, who hal not despaired of the safety of. the Repub lic, and employed itself without relaxation in pro- . viding hi►n means to repair the disasters,occasion . ed by his obstinacy anti bad arrangements. In circumstances less critical than these, weivid the Representatives of the Nation despond, :old forget the dangers of the country to empioy t hem selves on ill-timed discussions, instead of ri sort ing to that remedy which secures the :safe ty of France ? It was. moved, that this speech be printed, to the number of six copies. Ordered. The sitting was suspended for three hours h expectation of a message from the Chamber of Representatives, for which see that head. At a ►ivarter past four the message was an nounced-, and Lacepede took the Chair. M. Thiba►tdeau read the Message. Several Members the vote ! others de manded a second reading, which was dome. Another Member—There is nothing to be said upon it ; the sole question is, whether the Cham ber adopts the conclusions of the Chamber of Re- presentati ves. 7 The President—The Chamber has passed to the Order of the Day ; we have no deliberation to enter into. M. Thibandeau,--It appears that the Chamber of Peers cannot deliberate on the question ; I have not therefore risen because it is myintention to open a discussion : but I will avail myself of thii opportunity to state, that the veil which we . heard talked of yesterday is now removed to the satisfaction of France, because it appeared to renal a G overnment weak iand degraded, a Government destructive of our institutions, a Government which does nut harmonise with our interests as formed these 25 years past. I say that- the Chamber of Peers should express, its wish, and adopt the same resolution as that now rend— (Ories from all sides of supported, supported !), The Message was then read a third time, and the articles successively put to the vote, and adopted without opposition. The Chamber then adjourned. CHAMBER OF REPRESENTATIVES, JUNE 23 M. Berenger moved that the Provisional. G overnment should he declared collectively respon sible. M. Defermon—The proposition submitted by our Colleague Berenger, appears to have attract- . ed the attention of ad tl►e Assembly. ...But in at tending to that proposition a reflectionbas struck me., If my memory has not deceived me, it has been proposed that yoir Executive Commission should swear obedience to the laws 'and fidelity to the nation. But whom among us is invested with a character to receive that oath ? To whom must the Commission make oath, it we do not deter mine in whose name we wish to put in operation the constitutional system ? jn such a state of things what also must be done by our Admini strative and Judicial. Authorities ? I ask, do we acknowledge or do' we not acknowledge an Em -peror of the French ? There is not'a man among ►ts who does not answer we have an Emperor in the name of Napoleon 11. (Yes, yes exclaimed the greater number (*the Members)... Well con vinced of this truth, I may now Ask whether the foreign enemy will (ksregard t; ► e efforts of the na tion, when it is se:en that the Constitution is our polar star, and.-that it has for its fixed point Napoleon 11. A number of voices. —Yes, yes ! A Member—l move the suspension of this dis cussion until we be informed of the result of the negociations. Cries of No, no ! Order, continue. M. Defer►non—l am a Representative of the People, and, like you all, devoted to the interests of the country. My_opinion is, that the Consti tution ought to be our rallying point..—flow shall we look in .the eves of Europe and of the nation, if we do not faithfully .observe our fundamental laws ? Napoleon I. resigned in virtue of these laws—Napoleon 11. is therefore our Sovereign.— (The same expression of assent on the part of the Assembly).—Whets it is seen that we rally zeak ously by our Constitutions, that we have pro nounced in favour of the Chief, whom they indi cate to us, it can no longer be said to the national .guard that it is, because you expect Louis XVIII. you deliberate.—(No, no !)—Let us re-assure the army, - which desires that'our Constitutions should be preserved. There is no longer any doubt as to the maintenance of the constitutional dynasty of Napoleon. _ A movement of enthusiasm rapidly diffused it self through the Assembly, and cries of " Vive Plimpereur" were lung heard with energy. A great number of the Deputies waved their hats re peating the acclamation. It was moved that the general emotion mani fested by the Assembly should be mentioned in the minutes.—Ordered,, I\l. Deferinon—l inne that the Chamber pro ceed immediately to deliberate on the question. , Boulay de lit Aleurthe—The abdication of the Emperor, such as you have accepted it, is indivi sible, and cannot be taken only in parts.

BRUSSELS, JUNE 25.—Namur was on the 19th the theatre of a very obstinate but happily very short combat. The French corps which was in the environs of WTavre having to ten its way in the night of Monday towards Namur, a Prussian divi sion went in pursuit of it. About ten o'clock the cannonade was heard to approach, and soon the fire of musketry Ifas distinguished. In the after noon a strong detachment of French cavalry ap peared at the gates of the town, and required to pass through in order to go to Give. As the place was without a garrison, it was necessary to admit, the enemy, who continued to arrive during the day, and - the day following. About four in the af ternoon the rear-guard of the french shut the gates, and connuenced a brisk fit'e from the ram parts upon the first columni of the Prussians. About six o'clock the firing ceased. The french hastily abandoned the ramparts, which were scal ed by the Prussians. A warm but short action commenced in the streets; vihich ended 'by the precipitate, retreat of the enemy towards DinanL. The glacis,'the avenue to the Brussels gate, and part of the surrounding field, are strewed with killed and wounded. Among the great number of Officers of rank who came into the town were re " Pescara, one of the last Neapolitan'fortresses; has surrendered to the Austrian troops, who found there a number of cannon, and much ammunition.
