taken place. During yesterday isealkly end after-
noon, although the precincts of Om Amiably were
open ea usual to circulation, no oae wee permitted to
stand nor any groups allowed to collect; the moment
one or two individuals were seen to stop, a policeman
Was at their elbow to desire them to move on.
Within the Assembly, the Salle des Pas Perdue,
usually the resort of journalist' and others for con-
versation and the interchaor of news, was kept
cleared. Persons furnished with tickets were allowed
to pass through, but not to stop in it.
At the conclusion of Caussidieres speech, for which,
together with other interesting matter, we refer to
our report of the assembly given below, the presi-
dent announced that he had a communication to make
to the Assembly. This announcement was followed
by the most profound silence. The President read a
requisition of the procureur-general of the Court of
Appeal demanding authorisation of the Assembly to
prosecute Louie Blanc and Cauesidiere as accomplices
in the insurrectiors of the 15th cf May and 23rd of
June. After some observations, characterised by more
or less violence, from MM. Ledru Rollin, Lagrange,
and other members of the extreme left, General Ca-
vaignac rose, and, greatly to the surprise of the As-
sembly, announced that the present application was
made by the law officers of the government, not in
conaceuence of the proceedings of the committee
on the insurrection, but in consequence of
judicial proceedings which had been taken simulta-
neously with the political inquiry. "The government
(said General I avaignac) desired that this discussion
should be promptly commenced and promptly termi-
nated, nor do we desire that this application for autho-
risation to prose-ere° should lead to another debate."
lie was understood to intimate that the government
had only postponed their demand in order to give the
parties implicated plitically by the report of the
committee time and opportunite, to deliver their
defence in the tribune. Upon this Louis Blanc rose
and declared that there was not an honest man who
in his conscience doubted his innocence, and that he
was impeached, not because he was supposed to be
guilty, but because of his political opinions.
At two o'clock this morning M. Come rose to sup-
port the demand for authorisation to prosecute. lie
said that three things had gone on concurrently to en-
lighten the law officers—the judicial instruction on
affairs of May 15; the military instruction on the in-
surrection of June; e the judicial investigation on
the same. Therefore • lacts were well known.
It was then prop+ l that the law officers Gf the
republic should be authorised to prosecute M. Louis
Blanc for the affair of the 15th May, when the result
of the division was as follows
For granting the authorisation 504
Against it 252
Majority -252
The same proposition having been put to the vote
for Caussidiere in the same affair, the division was as
follows :
For the authorisation
Against it 2tiB
—209
Majority
It was then proposed to grant the authorisation to
allow proceedings to be instituted against M. Caussi-
diere for being implicated in the insurrection of June,
which would have the effect of delivering him over
to the council of war. The following was the result
of the division:
For the authorisation
Against it
.Majoitty against it
It was feared last evening that if Louis Blanc and
Causaidiere were not arrested immediately after the
vote of the assembly, they might excite public
opinion in their favour, and possibly produce an
&node. While M. Bar, therefore, was delivering his
speech, a juge d'instruction was eought for, but none
being found, M. Ducoux, as prefect of police, was re-
quested to sign a warrant fur their arrest. Tile latter
having some doubts as to the power of doing so, M.
Vivien, whose legal and administrative knowledge is
so generally admitted, reseeured him, and warrants
were accordingly prepared. 'Meanwhile however
MM. Caussidiere and Louis Blanc have escaped, and
it was believed, left the capital.
It is expected that the trial or all the parties
charged with participating in the insurrection of
May will take place next month. That event having
occurred before the state of siege, it will be brought
before the ordinary tribunals, and tried by a jury.
It was observed last night in the assembly that :not
one of the numerous ladies who occupied the galleries
either quitted her place or slept till the determina-
tion of the debate. The other sex, however, showed
more susceptibility of lassitude, several of the mem-
bers of the assembly, and among them General
Cavaignac himself, having fallen fast asleep on their

rer meet with a seal except some solitary
of timber nutter.
_-Thkilegolation of this extensive district'affects the
lamb of the country in which it is situate. The rate
of ineresee in the population of Hampshire eras, ac-
cording Cto the census-of-18310w less than 14 per
cent. below the average of England. The popula-
tion at the same period was only 193 per square mile,
whilst the average for all England was 259. But
the people it is evident are not the gainers by the ad-
ditional space thus afforded them ; for out of the 22
agricultural counties of England Hampshire is one of
the three worst in point of crime, and even this calcu-
lation is exclusive of the offences brought under the
jurisdiction of the forest authorities.
Ia the villages above-named and in several petty
hamlets on the margin of the forest there is a poor,
indolent, and demoralised population, in the enjoyment
of far fewer comforts than the ordinary day labourer. It
is said by forest authorities, " Oh! the people here
must be well off, see what advantages they enjoy. I
They obtain their fuel at an easy rate; their cattle,
pigs, and geese may have the run of the forest, and
there is always some little patch of land hereabouts
which may be cultivated rent-free." But the fact is
that these advantages, which would he considerable
under other circumstances, do not nearly compensate'
for the absence of regular agricultural employment.
A man may cut as much turf as he likes, nut the
turf is comparatively useless if there is no pot
to boil upon it. The reward of the week's labour, in
the shape of a money payment, is wanting. The
regular occupation, too, is wanting. And the conse-
quence of that, as we all know, is certain demoralisa-
tion. Hence it is that these people too often place
their main dependence for support on the precarious
supply of forest pilfer, engaging, as they grow
bolder, in more extensive depredations. Hence it
comes that Winchester Gaol is regularly fed with
criminals, and the hulks at Portsmouth supplied with
convicts.
Let the crown only permit the barren wastes
of the New Forest to be enclosed, end in the course of
a very short time a cure may be expected for the evils
thus depicted. Telco an example: the Lyndhurst-
road Railway Station is built upon an open space
of—say from 130 to 200 acres. There is •
well fenced plantation of young oaks to the
north, and the railway fencing runs all along the
south : thus, all the enclosure which would be re-
quired would be for the high-road which passes
through the clearance. Now here is an offer for the
Woods and Forests. Two parties shall be found
ready to-morrow morning to take this land on a 14 or
21 years' lease, at a peppercorn rent for five or seven
years, gradually rising to a guinea an acre. They
will engage effectually to drain, manure, and bring it.
into cultivation within a limited period. They will
enclose it, not perhaps with a park paling, but suffi-
ciently for all ordinary purposes, and they will engage
to keep up existing fences, and save the commissioners
the enormous costs they now annually incur in pre-
serving their young plantations from depredation.
Now, if the commissioners will accept such an offer
the effect may be this stated : the crown will be saved
• considerable annual outlay for keepers, fencing, tee.
Seven or ten years hence it would be receiving say
200!. a year rental. The salubrity of the Lyndhurst-
road station would be vastly improved—not a small
matter to those who live there, and who are must
probably exposed to fever and ague from the marshy
nature of the place. Society would be benefited
thus : there would be two farmers with their wives
and families, 1:1 individuals in all, taking the children
at an actea j's average of 4; per family. They
would each have a domestic servant, a carter, and a
boy, making in all 19. Each farmer would want two
field labourers, of whom ho could find plenty in the
adjacent union workhouse, and subsistence would thus
be given to tour families, or, at the same average. 26
individuals more. Thus we may say that from 40 to
45 souls would obtain a means of support which at
this moment is denied to them, merely that a system
may be ma!nteined which seems to operate exclu-
sively for the benefit of some half-duzen wholesale

benches.
The government desires to have it believed to-day
that the extensive military preparations which were
made yesterday were rather intended to provide
against a legitimist outbreak, which it is pretended is
feared, than a commucist movement. I have lesson
to believe, however, that there is not a shadow of
ground for this, and that the legitimist party exert no
interference, directly or indirectly at present, how-
ever confident may be the expectation they entertain
of any ultimate result favourable to them. The ex-
tensive military preparations manifested yesterday
and to-day are directed against the friends of Louts
Blanc and Catuisidiere.
Very serious disturbances broke out at Lille
on the 24th. It is reported that this emente, which had
at first no political character, took that turn yester-
day. Cries of " Vive Henri V. l" were uttered.
There is no external appearance of any extraor-
dinary military preparations in Paris to-day. I made
a tour of the town, visiting the Prefecture of Police.
the l'alais de Justice, the Boulevard", the assembly,
and all the points where a display of military force is
generally made. There are no appearances of any
extraordinary measures of precaution. The AsssemblT
does not tit to-day, having adjourned till Monday.
It was observed that all the members of the Reunion
of the Hue de Poitiers. and a considerable number of
the Reunion of the Institute, voted in favour of the
authorisation to prosecute. The Reunion of the
Palais Royal united wit's the ab,olute democrats in
voting the other way.
SVNDAY, 11.343
All the journals of last night and this morning con-
cur in giving a circumstantial account of the arrest of
MM. Louis Blanc and CaussLiiere, and their com-
mittal, first to the Conciergecie and thence, under
a strong escott to Vincennes; nevertheless it is certain,
as I have informed you in. my last despatch, that
they have escaped the hands. of the polihce. Govs

-
ment, it seems, were not prepared wit warrant
their arrest yesterday morning. M. Durnux, prefect of
police, who was present. hesitated ; and the Pro-
eureur de la Republique, and the loge d'lnatruction
charged with the investigation of the affair of the
15th May, were sent fee. It would seem that the two
parties, availing th. isselvme of these dela it, left the
house, and immediately afterwards absconded. Yes-
terday morning Louis Blanc published a letter)
in which he said that he had been per-
secuted, not as a guilty man, hut as an enemy
to men whose political passions had silenc,d all
seAse of justice. He withdrew, he said, the better
to protest against the consequences of the state of
siege and the empire of force. lie could nut believe
that France would long suffer the regular eouree of
justice to continue suspended. lie ended by saying
that when the day of trial came he would be present.
This letter written by Louis Blanc, appeared in the
'Animal des Dnxits, the Natiouttl, and the .Reforme

this morning.
The journal des Dames, seeming not to have full
confidence in the authenticity of the letter, gives in
jitzta-position with it the circumstantial statement of
the arrest and committal of the accused, which ap-
peared in the evening journals, and has been generally
repeated this morning.
M. 'riders has announced the immediate publication
of a work on property, written in furtherance of the
measures adopted by the Academy of Moral and Poli-
tical Science, at the suggestion of Gen. Cavaignac, to

strongly. against those parts of the evidence of M.
Arago in which they were respectively inculpated.
M. Arago then,with the greatest firmness of language
and determination of manner, maintained hie assertion,
which he declared he had heard from the mouth
of M. Ledru Rollin himself. This declaration excited
a great explosion, which was not diminished by some
words pronounced by M. Ledru Rollin, having a ten-
dency to attenuate the assertions of M. Arago.
The report was then Recce ssively attacked by
MM. Quinet, Baune, Rapellin, Larabit, Mar-
tin, and Ray nal. M. Bac complained strongly of
the publication of the documents of the parliamentary
club of the Rue Quitigliorie e ultra democrats.).

of the secret councils held in the ministry of the in-
terior when he was secretary there. The scattered
and unconnected nature of the debate appeared to
fatigue the Assembly, which was expecting with im-
patience the addresses of Ledru Rollin, Caussidiere,
and Louis Blanc. A short suspension of the sitting
took place a little before four o'clock. When the
house resumed,
Lenau RoLLIX said: The discussion which is about
to open is one of those which will find a place in history. It
is the sentiment of the public, as may be seen by the agile-
tion which has been caused in people's L
indins. lam desiof

ous of being as calm as poasible, but n the heat
speaking, there may escape from me any eepressions con-
trary to my intentions, I disavow them beforehand. (Hear.)
After this exordium, the honourable gentleman reminded the
assembly that the present inquiry was not without prece-
dent, a similar one had been entered into after the events of
the sth and 6th October, 1789, an inquiry which was
trampled in the dust by Mirabeau. At that time also, an ap-
peal was made to sentiments of union and concord, and the
National Assembly passed simply and purely to the order of
the day. It was right in doing ea, for then it had before it
eighteen months of concord which permitted it to perform
great things. There was also an investigation institu
der ot df
e after
the 10th August, but the assembly passed to the or
day on the result of it, but from that inquiry resulted the
struggle of the Montagne and the Girondists. After the 9th
Thermidor there was also an inquiry ; It was wished to drag
before the revolutionary tribunal all those who had played
an important part in the revolution, and hence arose the days
of Prairial. The hon. gentleman had asked himself which
of those famous inquiries the committee intended to take as
its model and as its starting point. Ile was convinced that
it only wished to ascertain the causes of the attempt of 23rd
June brought forward front those of the 15th:May, but not to
introduce personal hatreds, rivalries, and antipathies. But,
he would ask, does the result of its labour respond to its
intentions ? He contended that it did n it, and that hatred
and rancour sat at the table of the committee of invedi-
gallon., and dictated it. decisions. (Movement.) He was
surprised that be should have been included in the inquiry,
for where was he found on the day of the attempt ? Where
was he on the 16th of May ? at his pest in the government.
He did not stead there to defend himself, as he was perfectly
protected. On June 23 was he not at his last? On May
15 had he not done his duty ? And fur anything that had
occurred before the meeting of the assembly, was it not said
by the memorable declaration of the National Assembly that
the provisional government hail merited well of their coun-
try? (Movement.) But what wan there against him? He
was accused of having sent out commissioners into the pro.
sine' of an ultra character; he was charged with sending
forth circulars of a violent tendency. Yes, he had done so ;
for be wished to bring into the National Assembly republi-
cans of the reale. Yes, he tried to realise the principles
which he himeelt felt so profoundly—to found the true re-
public. But lie defied any one to bring forward tie ease of
one commissioner that had acted improperly. (Laughter.)
The hon. deputy then alluded to the reproaches of which his
commissaries had been the object. The report of the com-
mittee had intentionally stated that one of them had been
branded by justice, and had passed several years at the hulks.
That reproach was nut just: for, in the first place, the per-
son alluded to (Riancourt) had not been appointed by the
minister. He was a commissary, and had been merely
appointed a commissary of police. If the assembly would
like to be inform. d who bad r commended that individual
to the notice of the commissary of Rouen, a perfectly honor-
able man, and exhiOtonnier of his order, he would tell them
that ft was a man whom the assembly had honoured with its
suffrages for the presidency—he alluded to SI Buchez.
(Agitation.) Tne hon. gentleman then, replying to the re-
proachee of which his conduct had been the subject in the
affair of Risquons-Tout, said that there were then three Eng-
lish men-of-war is the Scheldt, which threatened to take and
burn Antwerp in cue a movement should break out in Bel
1611111. Tne Belgian government had never complained, for
it was aware of the real state of the cos-. The hon. gentle-
m-an, then again alluding to his polhical principles, haul that
he had always been a republican, had islways believed in re-
publican principles, whilst, on the 24th February, the chief
of the opposition party declared that, except in a regency,
there could he only disorder and anarchy. The bon. deputy
then, addressing himself to the right, said that it had
contributed perhaps more than himself to bring about
the revolution. It now continued to do what it had done
for the last eighteen years—han on at the chariot wheel
to prevent its moving. (Murmug rs.) During eighteen
years, continued the hon. deputy, you loved the government
which you had established and you followed h. withoutthee, hav-
ing an idea. or a principle to put in its place. Well,
what you have been under the government of July, which
you founded, and which you loved so much, I much fear
you would not effect fur the republican government which
you have not founded. The learned gentleman then went
on to accuse the right of having tailed in the rendezvous,
which it had made on the 16th April, with 200,00 t met ,
on
the Boulevards. 'You must not, continued he, recommence
a captious opposition, and if you are good citizens, your mis-
sion is to iollow, bat not to direct the government, for
you are without ideas, and without principles. (Hear,
hear.) There was general distress in the country, he
would admit, but it should not be said that it is the re
public, which has caused the evil. It should be boldly said
that the great majority of' the houses which had failed
were three parts ruined before the involution of February.
It was necessary to make known that there was only one
means of safety—the republic. It was a cessary to bind
oneself to its car, and not dream of reaction. You wish (he
continued) to frighten us with the bug-hear of the red re-
public, but it is a vain phantom ; the red republic does not
exist; the evils which you perceive. you wish to scare away
with a constitution. What is waste lin the prey at state of
affairs is secial institutions. The hon. deputy then declared
that he and his friends wished for family ties end rights
to their fullest extent; but is the child, he asked, that
is so often seen at the gate of the Foundling Hospital,
to be called a family tie ? Is it the young female who,
not being able to maintain herself by honest labour,
is compelled to enter on a life of infamy in order
to procure herself a morsel of brea 1? Certainlyre not But
real family ties we all wish for. We a accused
of rroseribinit property, whilst we are well aware that
ove it
it is
the basis of liberty. Property ! Why, we perhaps l
more than you. The hon. deputy here reminded the As-
sembly cf what he had wished to do for the interest of pro-
perty by creating mortgage-banks,[ as the °fay means of
releasing it from the iron grasp of the usurer. The cry was
raised that he wished to create paper money. Paper
money! Why, what was the 150 millions which bad ease
borrowed from the bank ? He declared that he and his peaty
were the only true Minds of property, for they wished to
make it ace. ssible to alt. He repo seated the republic of the
United States as ready to founder, because property WaS too
much concentrated in some hands (Murmurs.) I caneot,
he continued, reply to reproaches which I do not hear, but
what I wish to say is that in America tnere is fecal danger,
because the state retains too mach land in its hoods, and
a itation is carried on there to the cry of " land is liberty."
The hon. deputy concluded by ineieting on the necessity
which existed for union and *unwed. 't hey mast not he
merely uttered by the mouth, but must be .alt si the heart.

H. Lode BLNNC.—Placed for some time under the
falsest and most outrageous accusations, it is with difficulty
that 1 can maintain the calm which self respect imposes.
There is one circumstance which patioatarly strikes me in
this debate, and that is, that the mea who accuse us were

'M. Louis Blanc, am I accused ? Of the speeches
I delivered! Then it is, in fact, a veritable prods de tend-
and which is brought forward against me!" M. Louis
Blanc then proceeded to examine the charges made against
him, and especially the idea of the creation of a Ministry of
Labour and Propose. On the latter point he stated that it
was with repugnance he had consented, on the representa.
tions of M. Arago, to accept the mission of the Luxembourg,
and he detailed under what circumstances the decree reduc-
hig the number of working hours was issued. He declared
that his acts might be attacked, but that he would always
defend the doctrines en which they were based. He next
energetically denounced the principle of free competition, and
pre'. nted an apology of socialism, explaining its objects and
tendencies. (The murmurs of the Assembly interrupted this
part of M. Louis Blanc's discourse.) He afterwards proceeded
to notice the facts set forth in the rep in of the committee et
