NEWS FROM PLIRIS.

PARIS, FRIDAY, II A.M.

For several days the attre,upcm,nts and processions,
with drums, banners, trr.es decorated with ribbons,
and the bellowing of P.m " Marseillaise," have ren-
dered the public thoroughfares almost impassable
for people of bu.siness, and utterly intolerable
to people of leisure. In short, these public demon-
strations have become, in the most literal sense of the
term, a public nuisance. This state of things has
extorted from the government the following procla-
mation, which appears in the journals of this
morning :
Citizens,—We have accomplished the greatest and purest
of revolutions. We have established the principle of the
sovereignty of the people, and for the past month have given
to the world a striking example of its application. For the
last month France has governed itself without the employ-
ment of any military force, and by the sole moral authority
of the people.
Paris, with her million of inhabitants, has never offered
more personal security.
In a Nw days the Provisional Government, sprung from
the acclamations of the people, will restore to the hands of
the people's representatives the unalloyed trust of the save-
reigntrof the people.
Citizens—These latter days must be like the first, and the
FroviUonal Government is authorised to say it so wills it.
The National Assembly must had the republic as free from
all appearance of disorder as it rose from its cradle on the
immortal day on which it had birth on the barricades.
Beware, citizens, that too enthusiastic a show of patriotism
does not become a cause of alarm and trouble in this city, the
seat of the Republic. In a city so remarkable for the calm
and dignity of its people—the disturbances in the streets,
which put a atop to business—the firing of musketry, which
alarms the peaceable, cannot be tolerated or understood. Let
the Republican ceremonies, so magnificent in their sim-
plicity, be conducted by the public authorities; consult them,
and they will arrange vour patriotic manifestation,.
Do not allow anything, citizens, which may give even a
pretext to the enemies, either domestic or foreign, of our
republic ; anything which can sully the halo of its purity
ani glory ; anything which can arrest the movement of
European emancipation, of which we have given the signal.
Assist the government in the maintenance of order in the
city. Let every one return quietly to:ltis work ; adopt your
accustomed mode of life—happy and proud in being republi-
eans, we shall pass in peace the days, every hour becoming
lam troubled, which separate us from the time when our re-
presente,ves shall meet.
Citizens, the l'rovisional Government which is your
work, which you support with so much devotion, appeals to
your wisdom, to your patriotism ; unite yourselves with it
to consolidate the republic.

Yesterday afternoon the members of the Provi-
sional Government held a council at the Ministry of
War, in conjunction 'with the Council of Public
Defence. The session continued until a late hour in
the evening. It is stated that important resolutions
were adopted respecting the movement of troops, and
that purchases were ordered of 28,114t0 horses with
field equipages.
The [Won says The Council of Defence is at
present occupied with the task of establishing, on a
vast scale, a prompt and easy mode of military
organisation for the corps of Volunteers and of the
Guard Mobile, which the political events of Europe
may, from one day to another, cause to be called to
arms on the different points of the French territory." 1
The following is taken from the Frew :—" Three
military camps, connected together, and consisting of
a disposable force of nearly 100,000 men, will cer-
tainly be established at Dijon. Lyons, and Grenoble.
In the event of a war, and in case of an advance on the
kingdom of Sardinia, the head-quarters of the French
army will be fixed at Lyons, in order to direct from
that point the first military operations."
Anassembly of several hundred persons again made
a menacing demonstration at the bureaux of La
Pre,se in the Rue Montmartre yesterday, as I an-
nounced to you. Violence was feared during the
night, but owing to the interference and remon•
shams of the editors of the more republican
journals, and that of the authorities of the govern-
ment, the crowd was induced to d;hperse without
any violation of the peace or destruction of pro-
perty. An address is posted through Paris this
morning, signed by the editors of the National and
other journals favourable to the government, appeal-
ing to the good sense of the people in favour of per-
fect freedom of discussion.
We are enabled to affirm, that M. Ledru Rollin
went in person to the bureaux of La Preset, and
made the most efficient exertions to put down the
tumult.

11;21fonileur of this morning says that the band of
operatives who had made this menacing manifestation
at the bureaux of La rr,ss,,,, in returning from the
Rue Montmartre went to the ministry of foreign
atrairs. The young operatives who b.d it were re-
ceived by the minister. They said they felt a lively
irritation in seeing La Presse attack the Provisional
Government. and compare M. Ledru ltollin to M.
lluchatel, and M. lie Lamartine to M. Guizot ;
that they wished to make a manifestation against
this journal, but that they did not intend to
break the presses or injure the persons em-
ployed. M. lle Lamartine said he thanked
them for their sentiments, but he condemned their
acts, and he conjured them to renounce all acts of
violence against the journals which did not agree
with them in opinion; that if the opinion of every
one was free under the monarchy, it ought to be in-
violable under the republic ; that the !government
only responded to attacks by. its acts, and in guarding
the country from its enemies without, and disorder
within; thit it would be judged better by its works,
and not by the unjust statements of any party ; that
it would only be giving a sanction to the charges
against it by resorting to the least moral violence
against the liberty of speech, or the liberty of the
press; and that the republic even admitted the liberty
of being unjust to its government.
The news from the deparanents are not favourable
this morning. The same disorders prevail at Lyons,
Roam, St. Etienne, Troyes, and Marseilles, at all of
which
places the operatives, encouraged doubtless by
the example of Parts, have turned out for increased
wages and diminished hours. Two of the journals of
Marseilles, the Semaphore and the Courier, are sus-
Pfided from this cause.
The Provisional Government has issued a decree,
dated the 2sth, for the naturalisation of foreigr.ers who
are desirous of becoming French citizens, and who
shaa have been five years resident.
