TRIAL OF THE, TRENCH EZIVIINISTERS.. DEPC/SITIONS OF WITNESSES. CASIMI/t ?steam etCittelL, Aged b 2, Deputy of the Seine, residing rue Neu& du Luxembourg, On Tuesday, the 27th of ,July, a first meeting of the Deputies, who were at Paris, took place at my house; it was et this meeting that the protestation, which afterwards appeared in the journals, was agreed to. During this meeting, some groups had been formed at -the door of my house ; they were dispersed by the fire of the gendarmes, which wounded several young men, but the armed force did net attempt to enter my dwelling. Nevertheless, as several guardhouses were in the neighbourhood,we thought it would be preferable to choose another place for our meet. ;age; and we fixed upon the house of M. Andry de Puy caveat*, for the next day. In the meeting which took place on Wednesday at that Deputy's, five members were chosen from the assembly, to proceed to the Duke of Ragusa, in order, if possible, to obtain the cessation of the fire, and to make arrangements which, might conciliate the prin ciples that we supported with the interest of the authority that had violated, them. The five Deputies were Messrs. Gerard, Lafitte, Mauguin, Count Lobau, and myself. AL Lao* was charged to speak for us. On arriving at the Tuileries, between one and two &clocks we met Baron de Glandives, who hastened to give us every facility possible of obtaining an, interview-, with the Duke de Ragusa. The Marshal expressed satisfaction at the step we had taken. . We detailed our complaints, which here in parti. cedar upon the illegality of the ordinances, on the violent smack on the population, and on. the town being declared its state of siege, without any intimation of it having been given -to the inhabitants. The Marshal appeared astonished that the necessary measures had net been taken to give notice to the ppulation. He app. peered also greatly afil'eted at leis own situation He, 06. wirervid to ue; that that situation was counected with a ' point of honour,.—that he had done all ,In Lis power to avoid the evil r .:-but that, having been attacked, he could not but defend himself. We in our turn remarked, that the egression hid not arisen from the inhnhitants, but that discharges had been made upon them without provocation. • We proclaimed also a desire to attain conciliation between the parties. He was also inclined to it, but beforehand he demanded that the submission of the inlattitanta should be absolute, and be requested us to empitiy our influence with them. We replied that we could not hope for any; if we did not proclaim as the basis of the reconciliation the ' revocation of the ordinances and the distniesal of' the misters. Before any steps were taken, it was necessary that this should be done: 'The illarshel'deelarett that be could take nothing upon his own' responsibility, but that be would inform the King of our proceeding, and that he would entreat its being taken into consideration, but that in hie opinion there was nothing to be belied fur from it. Many of my colleagues understood that an answer was to be given to us ; but I am not certain that the Mandell did really say that this answer should- be made. I stn only sure that he promised to inform the King of our proposals. An sidede.carnp having entered and conversed for Some time with the Marshal, after he had left, the Marshal asked 1111 if we should feel any repugnance to' see the Prince de Polignat.. We replied that being charged with an im portant mission in the interest of the country, we could have no repugnance to see M. de Polignac. The Marshal proceeded to the cabinet, where, 1 believe, the Ministers were assembled, and, on his - return, some minutes afterwards; he told us that having infortned N. de Polignee of the conditions to which we attached the use of our Influence with the people, the Minister had re• plied that be considered it useless to see ns, and that we might withdraw. We did withdraw, and on going out we met M. tie Laroche Jacquelin, who, told us that the Prince de Polignac was expecting us. We observed to hint thathewas most probably in error, and he returned to know From the Minister if such were the fact; Ile in. formed us that in reality the Prince no longer desired to sees*. We received no answer that evening to the 'over tures we had trade. I have since heard that orders had been given, but I do not kethVexactly at what time, to erred several persons whose names I can not mention, as I did not know them, but I have nothing to state to this respect from my personal knowledge. I have been told that the Duke de Ragusa sent an aideole.catnp to- M. de Poucsuid . to prevent theseirrestds: from taking place. I havebeert - also told that at the time that the King re. mired the report of the Duke de -linguae, atter our eon tautest with hiss, he was informed that we. bed been all Ave arrested. - tut I depose to these -facto merely upon hearsay, as Lhave-no personal knowledge of them. For a mere. eirmonstentiet amount of the facts, and of the words that mewed between us and the Marshal, I refer to the declarations which will be made by 111. Lafitte, who, having been the speaker, can give a greater detail of our interview. JEAN VAANCOIS CYO. MUM', Aged 41 years, formerly King'. A ttAr.or /tie Tribunal de Premiere Instance at Peri., residing at Place Royale, No. 6. I can only persist here in.tlie (federations I merle before sne commissaries of the Chamber of Deputies, During the day of Monday, July 26, I had no reason for seeing more than two of the blinisters ; they were the Keeper of the seals and the Minister of the lett:tier, The pe rusal of the ordinances in the Monitaur was one of my motives for desiring to see the. Keeper of the &ids, with Whom, 14 King's Attorney, I had frequent communiea lions, and particularly during the absence of the Attorney- General, who was then absent from Paris. But I re ceived from the Keeper of the Seale no pertieular instruc tions respecting the execution, of the ordinances, which appeared to me entirely of en administrative nature. The object of my visit to the Winker of the Interior was to speak to him on the execution of the ordinance upon the elections as far as Corsica was considered, as I bad in habited, that country as Attorney-General. I received from this Minister no particular instructions , relative to the ordinance,. On Tuesday I again saw the Keeper of the Seel', whom I was obliged to go to fetch at the residence of the Minister of Foreign Affairs, where be ens then; but I did not see the Prince de. Potignae. The writs promulgated against several writers were so at . , nay requisition . I t was a spontaneous act of my own, which I performed,beceuse I was of opinion tbat, the pro teetations inserted in the National constituted a real offence. This requisition was not concerted between the Minister and me; but I spoke to him of it in the visit I paid him at the house of the Minister for Voreign Affairs. irRANCIS SIAUGUIN, Aged 45, Deputy of the Cots rl'Or, residing on the Rue du Gros Menet, No. At the time of the elections of. Paris .which preceded the ottlinanotts of July, I had the intention to go anti take the waters, which the state of my health rendered then indispensable. I had even ordered post-horses to he in readiness to start op the Ifttlt of July, the day of the elections, immediately after having given my vote. When I voted M. Virseal was at the office of the college. I in formed him of my intention of travelling, and of being back in Paris shortly after the opening ofethe Chambers. He said that I was wrong in leaving Perla, as Ministets were preparing a coup crew; he communicated to 1110 the whole plan of the ordinances, adding, that he held the is fermatton from a friend who was generally well informeih This friend had axed the With nr 2tith as the period for the publication of the ordinanees. Notwithstanding this &detest, I persisted ha my determination to depart-.--I re turned bow, and about eleven, the horses having been put to the estrilage, l was preparing to set off, when two persons, upon whose infortnetion I could depend, arrived at my house, and i n duced roe to defer my departure, an nouncing to me as certain that a coup dew was in pre paration. The details they gave me determined me upon remaining, and the horse. were unitarneased; I re tired to my country house, near. st. Germain, where I remained until Monday, the 2fltb of July. I was still there on the evening of the same day, when, having I,arnt by a person arrived front Paris that the ordinances had been published in the Moniteur of that morning, and that they had excited conailerahle ezeitement, I. considered it as my duty to return immediately. I arrived at my homee at nine o'clock, and I scarcely entered, when a person whose opinion was quit.; royalist, came to me and induced me to return to the country, telling me that several Depit. ties were to be arrested that very evening. It has been impossible for me since to ascertain if this information Was o +erect, Ott Wednesday it was said that several arrests wire to take place.. This measure appeared very probable, bat we met with no Indication of its having been decided upon. On Tuesday, laving learnt that a meeting was to be held at M. Caahoir Patent, I went there about two o'clock. On arriving I saw a great hustle in the Word /muse, which had been stationed the evening, before at the residence of M. de Polignec. There were a great many people aim in the street Nenve du Luxerniumrg. The gate of M. etsimir Petite* house was ithut. I knoeked, and the porter opened it steer having asked I who was. When 1 - had entered, he told me "that a numerous assent.» hlage without arms having ourtouaded the gate. and cried " Long lire the Deputiete" the gendarmerie arrived from. both sides of the street., and made.' dmible discharge upon the people, striking them at the seine . tittle with their edtres ; by this fire two young ine itiveriOtilled, and 18 or 20 wounded. On my deparmee thia*fiet tea* eirittirmed to me by several peraoms who had tieeeieWeestieet ; and some days afterwarde I reeeived a 0,4 front a young Win, who assured ow that his brother had been killed there. This young Mattl was a bLY/ student s but kdo not teutember his name. On Wednesday we met again, hut at the house of . M. Audry de Puyra.veati ; after having conversed IVA the , events, and upon the chances 'of The 'Combat which was going on, it was proposed to go to St. Cloutl,'bitt we thought we should hot tie received, and we resolved to make an Attempt With the Duke de Reguss, to explain to him the duets of the monarchy on one side, and of the popular party op the other, and to tongege biro to put an end to the firing; and to obtain the repeal of the *ordi nances, and the dissolution of the Miniatry, after which we would act as mediators with the people, and induce them to return to their hohies. We arrived at the general staff at from twO to three o'clock. M. Lafitte spoke ac. cording to the principles laid down. The Marshal replied that his opinion upon the ortlihances Veda the same as ours, that he deplored the events in which the fatality that pursued him obliged him to bear a part; but he said a confidential mission had baz:n allotted to him, and must accomplish it with honour. Of his ourh accord he could do nothing, nor could he retract the order lie had given, He requested of us to briee the people back to order, and promised to use all hia influence afterwards to obtain what we demanded. M. Lafitte remarked that we should have no power over the people, if we were hot armed with the repeal of the ordinances, and the dismissal of the Minis. tere. The Marshal replied that he should have no influ• ence at St. Cloud if the population did not submit. We were about to withdraw when he asked if we would consent to see 11.1 1 . de Polignac : we made no objection. He told us he would inform him of our visit, and after an absence of about six or eight minutes, he told us that the Prints de Polignac thought that candour, above all things, was es senlial in affairs, and that no mate 'should be deceived ; that the ordinances should hot be repealed; and that our determination in this respect being known to him, he con sidered it useless to receive us. M. Lafitte then remarked, that such being the case, the question could only be solved by the force of arms. We begged of the Marshal to render an account of our proceeding; to the Xing. lie promised to do so, and to send us alt answer, which be would ad dress to M. Lafitte, but observed, at the same time, that he expected little from this step. M we were leaving, an officer stopped us, saying, that he had been ordered by N. do Polignac to introduce us to him. We were astonished at this, and we told him that he must be deceived. lie went to the Prince to know if there was any mistake, and came to tell tti that the Priuce did not wish to see us, as the Marshal had given him an account of our visit. We departed, and received no answer it was net until the evening of Thursday, the 29th, that proposals of arrange • went were brought to the Hotel de Ville. AtTILECT-AMAND-Rollltltt, DE SAINT lIIIAXIA NS, Aged 49, General-officer, residing atydris, Rue de Can martin, No. 6. On the 2 . Bth of July I received an order—and this was . _ the first,l received —in go to the general stiff of the Royal Guard. As soon as I arrived, the' Duke of Ragusa or dered me to take the command of a column composed of about 900 infantry, 160 lancers, and two pieces of can non ; to follow the Boulevards as far as the Place de la Bastille and the Faubourg St. Antoine; tn' disperse all tu multuous crowds ; to throw down the barricades that I should tricot with, and to repulse force by force if I should merit with tesistance.l received no instructions to make the summonses prescribed by the law, and I had, besides, no police-officer with me. My march was undisturbed until I reached tl , e Boulevard Bonne-Nouvelle ; but on the height of this boulevard, which Commands the gate of St. Danis, I found a barricade formed of boards and other ar ticles. The company of Voltigeurs, which formed my vangnurd, hastened to throw it down, and to open a passage to the column ; but when they began this operation, they were assailed by several shots from the gate of St. Denis and from the angles of the streets which open above it. The Voltigeurs returned this fire. There was no one in the street; we could not see who fired at us ; the shots came principally from the gate of St. Denis, and it was entirely impossible to make any summons; I continued my march to the Place de la &mile, receiving shots from the right and left. On reaching the Place de la Bastille. where I found some troops who were not under my orders, Itnok with my column the direction of the street of the Faubourg St.Antoine,where I met some barricades, and where I sustained a warm fire from the windows of the houses; but this resistance ceased, and I motioned myself with my troops in the great street of this Faubourg. The fire of the musketry having entirely ceased, the inhabitants, men, women, and chil dren, • came out of the houses In crowds and mingled with the troops. I spoke to several gionps of these people, and exhorted them to remain tranquil, and to return to their daily occupations; a woman came up to me and said that it was not so easy to remain tranquil, without looney, without work, and without bread to give one's children ; I gave her a piece of five francs, and then I was surrounded by a great many women, and even men, who held the same language : I distributed to them the money I had about me, and in my report upon the events of the day which I addressed to Marshal de Ragusa, I mentioned this circumstance. It was they about three in the efternoon, and not having received any order from the Gen..... 1 cssir of the Guard, I considered that the communications were not free, and I directed my course towards the Tuileries. On reaching ti.e place de 14 Bastille I was in renned that it was no longer possible to pan on the Boulevards, on account of the trees that had been thrown down, and of the barricadee, and I came to the determination of going by the street of St. An tione, but this street was strongly harricadtd, anti de fended by a warm anti destructive fire from the windows of the houses ;- and my infantry having no more car tridges, I resolved to pass the Seine by the bridge of Aut. tellies, where I met with only a slight resistance, and I ar rived by the new Doelevards to the Esplanade of the In valids, where, after having given my troops some rest, I received an order from an officer "tent by the Duke of Ra gusa, to proceed to the Place Louis XV., which I reached between ten and eleven o'clock at night. After distri buting the troops under my orders, I went to the general sten' in the rue ftinoli, and I gave Marshal Ragusa a verbal account of all that I have just related ; I returned to the place Louis XV., and on the 29th of July, towards e ight in the morning, an aide-de-camp of the Duke de 114gusa brought rite an order to take, with two battalions, a regiment of cavalry, and a piece of artillery, the direr ' tion of the barrier des Bons-flommes, by the alley de- Veuves, and the quay Chaillot, in order to re-establish upon this point a communication with St. Cloud. I set out instantly with these troops, and I had to throw down some barricades. During this last military march, es well as in that of the evening before, my troops received a great many shots from the interior of housesi and from the cor nere of the streets ; but I, never saw before me, nor within my reach, any collection of people to whom I could address a summons of submission, and the troops naturally re turned the shots which at every instant were directed at them from the inside of the houses. I.OUIS•JUI.IEN DELANNAT. Aged SS, an officer on half-pay, residing at Nrde, cor , roborated the evidence of the preceding witness. THEODORE DE M..ZUQ, Formerly Comminsaire tie Police of the quarter of the Thuilleries, 47 years of age, residing in the Rue tie Doyenne, No. 6. On Monday, July 26, I received an order from the Prefect of Police, to proceed to the stage coach-office of the Rue do Bunion, to seize, if it ahould be found weir sat y, any newspapers or publications which mi g ht b e cent in violation of the ordinances. I went there at. about two o'clock, but es the hour of departure was fixed at six, repaired, in company with M. I)urios, one of my friends, to the Pelaie Royal, to see what was going on in that quarter, When we arrived at the earner of the Rue des Roos Enfant*, between three ate! four o'clock, we found the people assembled, and apparently in a state of great irritation against the gentrermes. As I was passing I entered the guard-bouse of the gendarmes, who told me that all was going on very quietly, and, indeed, on that day I did not bear any gun flied. On Tuesday, the 27th, the. Duke de Rsguua asked ine if I could have a proderna tion printed, which ho was desirous of circulating in Paris; 1 endeavoured to fulfil his desires, buil did not succeed. I believe that the proclamation was printed at Sevres during the night, and the next day, Thursday, we distributed several copies of it to the prisoners who had been taken the day before, and who were set at liberty, that they might give them to the inhabitants. JACQUFS ANTOINE DRKOSTX. VI years of Age, Corninissaire de Police of the Foydesit quaver, living Hue Marivsur, 140. 2, corroborated the &position of the shove witness, ft , tir.74Nx aONSTAHT aur.tyr, Count d'Overy, Lieutenant-General, residing residing rue tie Aiiromenil o Nu. 12. Having read in one of the newspapers a letter written on the incendiaries by a certain ilerri6, imprisoned at Toulouse, it recoiled to my recollection a tact which took place in May, and which was as follows was at that period returning from Caen to Paris in the stage-coach, and we spoke of the fires which were then very numerous. Some travellers from Cherburg, who were with me in the coach, said that it had been observed that arnong•t the passports delivered at that moment, 10 nr 12 had been given by the Mayor of Toulouse ; they added, that in passing through Isigny they had themselves seen several passports verified, and amongst them were no less than four from Toulouse, two for singers, and two others for two persons dealing in certain stones for dyers ; however, I cannot certify the truth of these assertions, having no other knowledge of the fiiet than through thus Moeller& Perhapt the Mayor ot derhurg might tarnish some tut cher information on the subject. FIERRE atooisTE-couitrEiTA, Aged 53, late Commissaire de Pollee, of the quarter of the Place Vendome, residihg hue St Nicolas d'Antin, No. 46. The drat ffishrder which took place in my quarter was on Menday, July 26. My first step was to inform the Prefect of Police of this circumstance, but I received no instructions. Prince Polignac called me, and told Meihat three individuals had been arrested, aitil Conducted to the post of the stal . went there, but the three Men had been arretteil hi shit rue Castiglione, and thus belonged to the quarter of M. Demajay,,l therefore let hint interrogate the circumstances of the airair, bn returning home I received an order to Visit the reading-rooms, to prevent the papers which were prohibited from being read, and acted in consequence. I did not receive from the civil authori ties any other order than the one relative to the reading rooms. No instruction was given to nie concerning the summons, and I was not officially informed of the state of the siege of the city. VICTOIt tiowtriice, /36 years of age, late Couuniasaire de Police, bf the quarter of the Valais-Royal, residing Rue Papillon, No. 10. On Monday, July 26, some groups assembled in the garden of the Palais-Royal to read the papers. They were all very quiet; but towards the evening one of them separated himself from the rest crying," Vive la Charte," and proceeding towards the Boulevards. On Tuesday the groups became more numerous, and at twelve o'clock I received an order, written by the Prefect himself, inti mating to me to shut the gates of the Palais-Royal im mediately. This was put into execution, and the side galleries were alone left open to the public. Towards three o'clock 1 placed myself with a detachment of the line near a house from which I had been told a gun had been fired, but nothing of the kind happened whilst I was there. The troops of the line were not only respected, but even applauded by the people. The wounded then began to be carried away, and stones to be thrown more than ever. I went to the Prefecture of Police to get new orders, but the Prefect answered that I might act as I should think proper. lie also gave me to understand that he had no more orders to issue, and spoke of the state of the siege of Paris, but in such a way that I did not know whether it was a measure already adopted, or not yet taken. On the Weduesday I was called to the Prefecture of Police, and there I received orders to seize the presses ; hut as I had enough to do in my own quarter another Colamissaire was charged with that operation. I then spoke to the Prefect of Police, to obtain instructions from him; but he appeared to be greatly disconcerted, and again told sue that he had none to give, and that he had now no power at all, as the town was declared to be in a state of siege. BRUTUS IMORINAND RENAL; Captain in the 59th Regiment of the Line, reeiding in Paris, Rue de Petit Pont, No. 15. At the time of the ravages of the incendiaries, I was sent with a detachment to Mortain, Vire, Dornfront, Vil ledieu, and other towns of the same country, but in no ;dace did I ever see any fire, nor any incendiary arrested, so that I can afford no intimation on that subject. The witness added that he never made any report on the result of his mission which any one ever induced him to change. The only thing which may have given rise to such a rumour was, that on arriving at the different places he had heard the devastations attributed to the most opposite Causes, some accusing the Comith•Direeteur, others the Government itself. The witness had thought that he should inform his military commander of these different reports ; but the Sous-Prefet of Mortain dissuaded him from such a project, observing, that if he thus related all these vague rumours, he might give them a certain au thentic character which they really did twit deserve. This observation had determined him not to mention them. GoDZERAY XLEAIIORR W341'01111, Aged liD, mercer, Rue St. Honore, Na. 162. On Tuesday, July 27, at about two o'clock, the tumult which existed on the Hare du I'sleis Royal induced me to shut my shop. At half-past six I left my house, mom - mending to my ehildien to remain in the room, and not to open the windows; but soon after the guard having fired a second time, my son thought the soldiers had pissed; however, as he was opening the wiadnw, he was killed by a ball, and he fell a corpse on the floor. VICTOR DONATIEN MOSAT, 68 years of age, Head Clerk at the Ministry of War, re siding Rue de Grenw•lle St. Germain, No. 59. On Wednesday, July 28, towards I() or 11 o'clock in the morning, M. de Ch impagny, then Under Secretary of State for the %Var. Department, called me into his cabinet with the second clerk of my office. He asked us what rules were to be followed for the formation of a Council of War in town declared to be in a state of siege; but at the same lime engaged us not to mention the latter circum stance. He al►o wished to know the actual compositiim of the permanent councils of war established in Paris. As we came unprepared to answer those questions, we were obl►ged to for the ticc.eb.ary documents, and during it certain length of time which elapsed until they were brought, we remained in the Cabinet. We took a mi. litary almancak in the meantime, and noted down several names which inight hero►ne members of the Council of War if it should be organized ; and iii. the documents had not yet arrived, M. de Champagny being called to the Tuileries, we separated. Not a wni d was arid in this in• terview relative to the establishment of Prevntal Coutes. ANTOINE LAUILENT ARNOES, Second Clerk at the Ministry of War, 65 jea' of age, re. siding Rue Princesse, No. 12, Corroborated the tettituony of the preceding witne-R. JEAN ISAPrisTE GREPrO, aged 84, Clerk of the Swing Bank, residing rue dos Petits Paris, No. 3, At about two o'clock in the afternoon, July 27, 1 was at the house of one of my friends, M. Letournen, mercer, rue St. lionor4, at the corner of the rue de Rohan, and from a balcony we saw the troops drawn up in order of battle, and barring up the passage of the rue St. lionore before the Cafe tie la:Regeance. The soldiers seemed to treat the citizens with great brntality ; and at that very instant the infantry opened, and an officer came out with three or four gendarmes ; they plunged into the groups, and an no. fortunate old man was trampled under the horses' feet; however he appeared yet to be living, but on returning ► the officer gave him a cut with his »Awe, and the corpse was taken to the place du Pulais Royale, where it re. mained for a long time. This barbarous action excited a general cry of indignation ; a few minutes after the troops effected a movement, and the tire began on both sides of the rue St. Honore. ERANCOIS VICTORIEN LIETOUREUR, Aged 37, Mercer, rue St, Hunore, As early as Monday several groups assembled on the Place du Palais Royal, but they committed no violence. On Tuesday, the 27th, the gendarmes arrived on the Place between 10 and 11, and dispersed the people several times, attacking them with great vigour. However, the crowd did not cease to increase, and arrived even on the Place du P,,lais Royal. At this moment, and upon no whet pro vocation than the cries of " Vive la Charte," the gen. darmes rushed at full gallop on the groups. Several per sons were borne to the ground, and amongst them an aged man w oi seriously wounded, and cart ied to the Place. The crowd still increasing, an officer of the guard came three tunes to entreat the people to retire, anti seeing that his efforts were unsuccessful, he retired shedding tears that he should be forced to command the fire. From what I saw. I am certain that the gendarmes were the first aggressors . ; even after their first charge the rople did not seem irri tated against them, anti one of them having been thrown from his horse, he was helped up again ; it was only after the second charge that stones began to be made use of by the citizens. ALIXANDRE MAMIC YETITf Aged 43, late Mayor of the Second Arrondissement, re riding Quay Voltaire, No. On the 26th of July, I returned home through the Pa. lair Royal, on my road front the bouvelard des Itoliens, and I saw that a part of the gates were already shut, anti and nothing remarkable a group assembled in the new gallery. The next day, t 'i t . r u or l pl Y ac ' c i t w he e r n er o bi t i t t le ot ia tre r N a V it et y lneaday I was informed at an early hour, that the Mayoralty had been attacked, t h e w hit e flag torn down, and a few windows broken. I itely went thither, and several persons having come to know, in the course of the day, if the National Guard was to be re.establiebed, I thought of going to th , Prefecture for that purpose. On my road I walled at the Staff of the Duke of Ragusa, whose instruction I was de sirous of obtaining on that point : he was not there, and I hastened to the hotel of Prince Polignac, where I. was told I should find him. I saw the Minister, who referied me to the Duke Ragusa, as the litter had in the meantime returned to hi s headluarters. The Marshal told me that lie had already been consulted about it, and ihat he 41041 tee. On Thursday, at nine o'clock, I received a circular from the Marshal inviting me to go immediately to him in full dress with the other mayors; I executed the order received by th e greater part of my ctil . im mediately, but the difficulty O rOmununicaion prev e nted the met M. G u t tean , mayor of the 10t h l le en tte t r ies f , r( s n o n beingtati only woot ti miemen t, with his adjoint, M. Duvivier, and M. de Is Goode, adjoint of the 11th. When I arrived, the Mar tha) was with the Ministers, and as they appeared very busy, I retired into another room : soon after, M. de Pi, lignac came out, toying that he was going to take the King's orders, and begging of me to wait unt il hi s re t ur n. Had we been more numerous ) we should bare gone to St. Cloud. As the Wer6 the only two mayors present, we Lid not think proper to venture on such a measure. We therefore went up to the Marshal, to know what were his intentions, He begged of us to proceed to the advanced posts, as he had ordered the fire to cease, and entreating us to do our utmost to make the people suspend the hostilities until he had received an answer from St. Cloud. Wr Liked him if, in order to facilitate our missioe, we could itnnoutice the rsorstabliehment of the National Guard. He replied that he could not anthorile us to do that ; but that he roituired the repeal of the ordinances ; that he hoped it Would be granted, and I might give the same hopes to the people. Whilst we were accomplishing our mission, we saw several soldiers of the Guard distributing to the people as far as it was possible, copies of the proclamation signed by the Duke de Begun, and of . which I here lay before you: a manuscript copy, that was given to me on that morning in the Chateau.

I declare that there never was deposited in my hands any papers by Madame la Cumptess de . Guernon nor any other person, either at the time of, before, or after the departure of the Count de Guernon, nor hare I any knowledge of any having been deposited elsewhere. FRANCOIS JOSEFII DOCIIE, Aged 86, Clerk to an Attorney, residing rue lime Mont morency, No. 1. On the 27th July, having gone to the Palais Royale about eleven o'clock in the morning, I heard a person cry out " Vive l'Empereur !" This person was immediately driven out from the Palais Royale in the post of the Bank where the officer refused to receive him. However, as his life was in danger, I urged the officer, who consented to let him go into the guard-house. It was said in the crowd that they found a card of police-agency in this man's hat, and that those who had it in their possession would show it; for my part I saw nothing. However, he declared before tne and the whole crowd that he was effectively a police-agent. GEORGES MOUTON, COUNT DIE LOEAU, Aged 60, Deputy of the Meurthe, residing rue de Lille, No. 100. The re-union of Deputies, which was held on Wednes day at the house of. M. Lafitte, named, I believe, five Depu ties to proceed to the Duke de Ragusa, and I was myself one of them. M. Lafitte wee charged with addressing the Marshal, he mail. known to him our great desire to pre vent any fur ther effusion of blood by an armistice, on con dition that the ordinances should be repealed, and the Mi nisters dismissed. The Duke de Ragusa appeared to enter into our feelings as well as arguments, but gave us to un derstand that he could do nothing of his own accord;-- however, he promised to inform the King of our proceed ing., and assured us that we should reveive an answer.— Notwithstanding this assurance, we did not receive any during that day, end ►he next, when overtures mere made to us at the Hotel de Ville, they remained without effect, as the persons who made the offers were invested with no written powers. JACQUES JEAN MARIE rasxcols DE TROMELIN, Lieutenant-General, 57 years of age, rue St. Dominique, No. 93. I was not employed in the public service when the events of July took place, but being informed of them, I thought it soy duty to go to the Staff of the Division, and afterwards to the head-quarters of the Duke of Ragusa, to receive any orders that might be given to me. I shall beg leave to observe, that in my different conversations with M. de Ragusa, be constantly lamented the events which had taken place and his own painful situation. I also met in the Tuileries Prince Polignae, who did not seem to he at all aware of the gravity of the present cir cumstances, and considered them as hieing of the same nature as the riots of the rue St. Denis. I met the Prince on Wednesday morning. JOSEF)! ROCN ifl, Aged 35, Counsellor of the Court Royal, living at No. 23, on the Quai Malaquais. I was Secretary-General in the office of the Minister of Justice (Ministere dela Justice), at the time that M. de Lahourdonnaye retired from the ministry. M. de Polignac having sent for me to his house, made inquiries of me re specting M. Gurrnon de Renville, whom I had known at the court of Grenoble, when he was Procureur-General at that place. I answered him that 1 had known this ma gistrate as a man of extenaiee capacity, and of frank coast". tuti - aral principles. lie afterwads asked me if it was true that he was "motile to religion and to the clergy. I told him that I considered him hostile to neither. AL de Polignac then acquainted me with the King having fixed upon him as Minister of Public Instruction (Ministers de ribistruction Publique), and desired that I should make this known to him, as well as the conversation we had upon the subject. I, in consequence, wrote to Guernon de Renville, and I here deliver into your hands the answer I received to my letter. I must make a single observation upon one phrase of his, in which he declares that he par ticipates in the doctrines of the present ministry. From what I have been able to judge from the interviews I have had the opportunity of holding with him, both before and after hit entering the ministry, I cannot conceive him in any other view than that of having participated in the doctrines of the moderate party of the ministry, whose triumph appeared certain, from the retiring of M. de La. heurdonnaye from office. I have always heard him pro. nounce himself strongly against all extra-legal measures, and I can only attribute his adhesion to the ordinances to a misconceive(' sense of honour, which prevented his re treating before danger, even when the measure to which had associated himself was contrary to his opinion, and because he himself had already pointed out the peril. " Lyons, Nov. 14, 1829. 44 I have read over your letter of the I I th three times, my dear friend, and were you not so wowing, I would wish to wait fout-and-twenty hours to calm the emotion which the unexpected proposal you speak to me of has created in me, but as you desire a prompt answer, I must give it to you. " My acceptance cannot he doubtful ; devoted to the King, to whom I have given up all my existence, I will retreat before no services that he can impose upon me; I would sacrifice my life to him. I cannot even refuse to compromise my reputation for him, and it is exactly that I should he liable to were I called into the Ministry. " What I have already said, and what I now repeat from the depth of my heart, is by no means an affectation of ney.General, but I cannot find, either in my knowledge modesty ; I believe myself to be a sufficiently good Actor of men, or of things, or in the extent of my own talents, 1 what is requisite to become a good Minister; in fine, have not those habits of the world, that ease of manners, which is likewise requisite in certain situations; the study is more adapted for me than the drawing-room, and I feel that I should he somewhat misplaced at Court. Brought up in the midst of the revolution, my education has been neglected, like that of many others of my age, and nothing can supply that deficiency. 44 In a word, the consciousness of my own inability alarms me to such a degree, that I cannot familiarize my self with the thought of the weight of a portefeuillte From that 1 conclude, my dear friend, that were I called to the high functions you mention, I should soon lose that reputation for talent which I have gained by a few successful audiences. 4 4 Communicate those avowals, that they may be well we i g hed, and turn away from me the cup of bitterness if you can. " Be the decision what it may, you may answer for my devotedness. The doctrines of the present Ministry are k no reaction, no violence, but no m ore con -I,l:swieisn:rinine ~. two ; words, justice and firmness is my motto —the Charter my political creed. 4 4 The reproach of hostility to religion and the clergy is rather absurd, at the very moment when the Journals of the faction accuse me of being a Jesuit, a Congregation slue, You will allow that I am rather singularly unfor. Innate i n this respect. You were, indeed, right; I have not t he good fortuie to be devout; 1 shall, undoubtedly, be so One day, Indeed, this is one of my hopes for that t i me when all illusions vanish away; but I adhere to the religion of my forefathers, and I hold it to be a certain fact, that to be a good Royalist one mud believe in God ; and indeed I believe that no one can contest my being a Royalist. All this is absurd, and only merits contempt. " Adi e u, my dear friend, it is not aecee•ary for me to say how much I am attached to you. " GUERNON.RANYILLE • o Y.S. My wife is rather indisposed at Geneva, and I forted to start in two hours to go and pass a couple of days with her. I will he here before your answer. Be careful when eau write to me (for the alone) to put my name on the addles*. Monseigneur is right, M. Da brosses must be brought its. Ile has been very well spoken of to me, but as a substitute, by naming Loival counsellor." LOWS CitABRAT UP. Aged 39, Captain of Artillery reformed, living at Paris, No. 8, Rue de 'Malaria. I was in the country on Monday, the 26th of July. (In my arrival in Paris, on Tuesday, the 2 1 7th, I learned the promulgation of the ordinances, which had taken place the day before. I was immediately_ elution , ' to know the effect they produced, and went for that purpose on the square of the Bourse ; there I met people who said, " Well, here ate the coupe d'etat come at last ; it will not be very long now," Having returned to my own house atter the Bourse, I heard the strums heat ; and the 6th Regiment, quartered not far from me, marched in great haste towards the centre, that is to say, towards the Palais Royal. My curiosity led me there. B) the Theatre Franqais, already in the midst of the crowds, I heard the cries of " Vive la Leigne ! La Leigne ne tire pas ! La Ligne est I nous !"—" Lang live the Line ! the Line wun't fire ! the Line is for ns !" Penetrating farther on, with the intention of crossing the Rue St. Honore, I - effectively saw some platoons of the Sth Re. giment occupying the width of the street, and march ing from the Place du Petals Royal towards the Place Vendome, without making any hostile demonstrations. Wishing to ascertain the truth of the pretended refusal of the Line, I crossed the Rue St. Honore, directing my paces towards the Place du Palais Royal, which was oc cupied by a strong detachment of gendarmerie. There I qsestioned the officer to know what was going on ; he an swered, that the officer commanding the Line had in fact refused to order the fire, pleading the absence of a com missary of police, and not choosing to place himself in a case similar to that of the Rue St. Denis. "But," con tinued he, " on this side," showing me the Rue St. Honore towards the Rue du Coq, the Guards have already fired three times ; it is there," said he, " that the attack is the warmest." Having demanded of him which was the mode of attack of the multitude, he pointed to the ground, co vered with stones, by which several gendarmes had been destroyed. He likewise showed me the remains of a bar ricade, which had been commenced three times. Demanded of the witness if the °Meer of gendarmerie had told him that shots had been tired upon the troopt?—. Ile answered, not. Demanded of the witness, if he had been personally witness of any summonses having been made on the part of the civil authority ?--He answered that he had no know. ledge of them. LOUIC-ANDRZ LIECOIXTE, Aged 42, Gent. (Proprietaire,) late Avouc at Joigny, living in Paris, at No. 32, Rue Hauteville. In 1822, I was avoue at Joigny ; I had exercised any functions for ten years, when I was comprised in an ac cusation of conspiracy, said to be with the intent of over throwing the Government of the Bourbons. Arrested is my own habitation at. Joigny, I was thrown into the prison of that town, where I remained 63 days. The Chamber of Accusation of the Royal Court of Paris, having taken up this affair, decided that there were not charges sufficiently strong against me, and I was set at liberty. Some days after, and notwithstanding that sentence, an ordinance of the King countersigned de Peyronnet, dated the Sd of July, 1822, recalled me from my functions of avoue, without. assigning any motive. The bar of Paris appealed in vain against the arbitrary measure, and it was equally in vain that my reclimations were carried to the Chamber of Deputies, M. do ',emu net defended this order and persisted in it. A short time afterwards I presented myself at his house to reproach him with having misled me by the revocation of my functions. I added, that his decision was illegal. odious, and arbitrary ; he answered me, that had he even acted arbitrarily in that affair, the weighty circumstances of the case authorized him to do an, since it was necessary to support the Government then existing. I demanded of him at least the authorization to present a successor. He answered me, that my presentation should be a deed of exclusion ; and he kept his word, for I was stripped of my means of existence without having even this last resource. On the 27th of July last, in returning from the Fm bourg St. Germain, I saw a crowd collected near the barrier des Lergens. Many gun.shots from the Palais Ro)al had already been fired by the gendarmerie upon the people. I advanced towards the officer corumandinglhe gendarmerie to persuade him to stop the firing upon the people. Ile paid no attention to my observations, and threatened to strike me with his sabre did I not imme diately retire. 1 represented to him that he would be ac countable one slay for the blend he caused to be spilt, and I then withdrew to avoid the result of his threats. The neat day, 28th of July, I, rode on horseback through several quarters of the capital to encourage the inhabitants, and to direct them in their modes of defenc,. On entering the Rue d'Antin, I perceived about 160 troops of the line, who were at the other end of that street, and who fired upon me, and upon several other persons there. I scarcely bad time to get into the .house of a no. tary, and was fortunate enough not to be wounded. It was about three o'clock v. at. An hour afterwards, while crossing the Boulevard which leads to the Rue de la Chausse d'Autia, I received the Are of the Royal Guards, who were placed there, opposite the Rue de la Pais. Oa the 29th of July I went to the Town-WI (Hotel de Ville), where I remained, and str.is soon named Secre tary of the Municipal Commission of Path. In the ful. fitment of these functions, 1 woe called to hear the pro posals that were made to the Commission by the emis saries of Charles X., and I took cognizance of the ordi nances, which - repealed those of the 2titli, and which com posed a new Ministry, at the head of which was placed M. de Mortemart. nzroarnows or WITUBSES, HURD BY Tll6 ROGATORT commtestox. I. Nicholas•Charles-Louis-Stenialaus Marie de Nom pere, Viscount ae Campagny, aged 40 years, Marechal de-camp, late Under Secretary of State to the War De partment, residing generally at the Chateau de Kanroux, county of Ploujean, arrondissement de Markin, and tem porarily at the Chateau ale Kerduel, in the county of Pleu meur-Bodon, arrondissement de Lonnoir, department dee Cutra-du-Nord. I learned the ordinances of the 25th of July from the Monigeur of the 26th. Iby no means ex pected this serious event. No order whatsoever issued at the War.office (Minister. de Is Guerre) had led me to respect it; no extraordinary movement of troepe had taken place; and at the very moment these events todt place:, there were less than the customary number of troops of the Guards in the environs of Paris. Two regiments of them bad been sent into Normandy to calm the die. turbances of the population, and to facilitate the search for incendiaries. On this last subject I must say, becalm the report of accusation from the Chamber of Deputies has allowed some vague euspieions to remsist on the Go vernment, with respect to the conflagrations, that I Lave often been witness of the solicitude of the Prince de Polignac to And out means of stopping th em The nomination of the Duke de Ragusa to the superior command of the Ist Military Division had take• place, I believe, or, to speak more correctly, was spoken of before the issue of the ordinances, and M. de Polignae had mentioned it to me. This measure of pi ecaution sp peered natural to me at a period when General Coutard was obliged to be absent, and the public opinion being very much excited, the Government might fear disturbance' at the opening of the session. It is also tree that I de spatched orders for the return of the regiments of infantry of the Guard that were stationed in the Calvados; but their return likewise appeared natural to one, the fires were diminishing, and that regiment ought to have begun their duty about the King on the Ist of July. It was then but just to recall theist, and, what is more, they were replaced by the regiment of the line. On the 27th July, 1 attended the War-office early. I war employed all day at my habitual occupation s , n o r d o I recollect having received during that day any order rela tive to the events. On the Mb I started for St• Cloud, where it was my duty to be at seven o'clock in the morning, the hour at which I had once a week the honour of submitting to the Dauphin the work of the nominations of the War De partment. At the end of that week, M. de PoUlnae, Who was with the King, sent word for me to wait for him. When he came nut, he snnouaeed to me the order to place the town of Patio under siege, end he desired me ►o give inetructions as to what the legislation had fixed relative to the state of siege, and more especially upon the Councils of War he thought necessary to create, ac cording to law, as soon as the state of siege was de clared. Fearing that I should not give him the in structions he required with sufficient exactness, I requested him to wait for my return from the War-office. I there assembled in my cabinet the chef and sous-chef of the office of military justice. A note was composed which contained the necessary instructions, and when I was called to the Tuileries I presented it to M. de Poliguse, who charged me to remit it to the Duke de Ragusa. Ido not think that the said note had any result, nor have I heard that a Council of War had been formed. The evening of the 28th.- - -I had the orders of move. meat composed, to make the camps of Luneville and St. Omer march to St. Cloud ; and I sent them to M. d 1 Polig The morning of the 29th..—• The barricades beginning to encircle the War-office, and having but a few clerks about me, I quitted my cabinet to repair to the Tuileries. A short time afterwards the Ministers went to St. Cloud, and I was ordered to remain at the Tuileries, whence -I did not move until the troops retreated. As to the day of the ittitli of July, of which nothing has as yet been mentioned, I have nothing to say about it : for having been indisposed for three days, I was forced ti' tdeithtielecli3itiantantrYce' where etrw4onileYagfresiirrormenePtils..Pl- I, SOU! ri , l ai le i m a g m e%D ed ,s l 3 ll p e gt s o r o i l sle l l b a , e.
