STAR/011D COUNTY ELECTION.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

otiti.tmtALL.
An old tar, the very helm idell or a true' Britisl,.
sailor, who gave his name Robinson, his dark
visage surmounted with a quantity of black hair,
twisted and matted like.so many ropes'-eudg, was
charged with being drunk and aesnulting ti patrol of
Aldersgate Ward,
Dunce, the complainant, stated, that be-
tween three and four o'clock the preceding evening,
he found the tar stretched keel uppermost upon the
foot-way, in Aldersgate-street, exposed, nor alto-
gether decently, to the gaze of a crowd of idle boys
Bunco roused him, and advised him to move on, but
instead of obeying him, Will ordered him to "sheer
off, or he'd pour a broadside into hiM;" and Suit-
ing the action to the wofd, he commenced num.
nulling the complainant most furiously. Dune.,
would have had no chance against the heavy metal
of Will 'Robinson, but Hawkins, the marshulman,
came up, and with his aid the tar was secured in
the Compter. While they were on the way, the
tar contrived to get his pocket-knife open in his
hand, but Hawkins perceived it, and took it from
him.

You hear what the officer says, observed tire'
Alderman (ANsm), addressing the prisoner.—
" Yes, but it's a lie I" roared ' out Will
'Robinson, enforeing his assertion by a loud thump
of his clenched fist upon the bar.
tie says you drew a knife upon him, said the
Alderman.'—Your Honour knows I can't spin a long
yarn like this lieu:chap, replied the old tar; hut I never
hurted man, woman, or child, in my life, barring a
frog eater—but I was a lad then, and it wan in the
cause of Old England. And d—L—e, I don't think
I'd hurt him either, after a glass of grog or two.
Alderman.—How long have you been in England?
—Only two hours ashore, your Honour, replied
Will, l'd just come from China, and got taking a
glass with one messmateand a glass with another.

Aiderrndri ANSLEY—The sure way to get drunk.
You should have taken a glass with but one mess.
mac—Your Honour's an excellent preacher, and it's
all very true; but if an old sailor, after a long voyage,
when all bends are piped ashore, refused to drink
with every mate who asked him, he'd he called a
scaly fellow, and you know I should not like that.
Bunce—l did not mind the assault, I thought it
was better to put the prisoner in a place of safety
fur his own sake.

D-e, you're an honest felloW, after all, ex-
claimed the tar, seizing the officer's hand, and
squeeeing it till the tears started into Bunce's eyes.
Come, and we'll make it right over a glass of grog,
old boy. . .
Alderman ANSLEY.... 4 doubt whether you have
any money left.—Will felt in his pockets, and could
not find u copper. All gone, all gone! exclaimed
the tar mournfully.
It's all right—l've got his money tare, said
Dunce, drawing forth an ample handful of silver and
sovereigns.
Husis, huzza! Old England for ever ! vociferated
the delighted tar, when he saw th- money, and
sniffingßunce by thel collar, Its cried, Come along—
come along, old bay,—l'm as dry as a dolphin.
Bunco refused till lie counted the money, Nhilling
by shilling, in the presence of,, the Alderman; but
when he began to do so, Nill found the operation
too slow for the current of his feelings, and catching
up the officer by the waist, he carried him off in
triumph, exclaiming -keep it, my boy—keep
we'll drink every penny of it, and maybe his Honour
there (turning to the Alderman) would taco a drop
of suoonot.

The Alderman could not maintain his gravi►y, itut
he declined the offer, and Will set off with the offleer
still firmly held in his giant gripe.

Chapman, a dealer in milk, was charged before Mr.

Duke's-court, Dean-street, Westminster.

The piotieti in this crow ere loath dealers in milk,
and conaideruble jealousy hes' for some. time existed
between them, in comiequente of Mrs. -Quin having
reduced the price of her genuine article to three•
pence per quart, whereas Muster Chapman still holds
out for the old price of fourpence. In ibis state of
affairs between the two p4rties it may lie Pettily
imegined that Mrs. Quin's customers buve much in-
creesed, to the greet dismay of the opponent, whose
trade has necessarily been .on detwease,
whenever he meets her in the stable culls nut " The! e

me "old threepence a quart," said Mu Quin, " tie

Here Mrs. Quit' drew a step b4icit from the her,
and lifting up her fat, rosy hand, gave her left chet,k.
four hearty meats, exclaiming, " Just like that."—
( Loud laughter.)
Did he hit you as hard as you have hit yourself?
inquired the Magistrate.—Harder, harder, your
Worshipful Honour, cried out Mil. Qom, as hard
as this, and lifting up her right hand a second time,
she gave herself another most tremendous smack,
whieh echoed to the ceiling, and which she was
about to repeat, when the Magistrate told her that
he thought shot appeared to like a smack in the face,
No, your Worship, hut I'll show you how he gave
me the other three, said Mrs. Quin.
There is no occasion fur you to smack your face
In this manner, replied the Magistrate. How came
you, Chapman, to smack this woman's face ?
Master Chapman said that Mrs, Quin had struck at
him first with her yokes, and he would call a witness.
A young woman hero stepped forward, and stated
that both parties were using the 1110 tit Outlive lan.

proper to repeat t but Mrs. Quin certainly Struck
first with her yokes; whereupon Mr. Mattutorr ills-

SATURDAY, AUG. 7.
The election for the county of Stafford took place tlo
morning in the Nisi Prins Court of the County Hall.
At ten o'clock the High Sheriff, Thomas Twemlo'.r
Esq., took the Chair, and the usual proclamations again,
brib,ry and corruption haviOg been read,
Sir 04WALo Motat.tv, Btrt. came forward and 'pro
posed Edward John Littleton, Esq., a., a fit and propel
person to rrpreaent the county of Stafford in Parliament
The Hon. Baronet said on the day of nomination he had
,ntered an fully into the qualifications of Mr. Littleton
that on the preterit occasion it would be unnecessary fo,
hint to detain the meeting for any tenth of time. H,
vould therefore confine himself to the past Parliarnentar,

conduct of the gentleman he then had the honour to pro
pose, he wished his actions to be scrutinized with accuracy,
and it would be seen that he bad alvays been actuate,
with the best feel in a s for the county of Staftwd.—(Cheers.)
—lf anything bud been wanting to satisfy the most fas-
tidious mind on that subject, the explanations his Hon
Friend hid given were most conclusive and satisfactory,
They had met that day to return two Members tee
the great and opulent county of Stafford, am
that at a tithe when affairs of the greatest int

portance agitated the country ; but be did not allude t.
our internal policy only, but to our foreign relations.—
(Hear.)—,lle could not contemplate the present state of af-
fairs without feeling a fear for the tranquillity of Europe.
—(Hear. )--The state of a neighbouring country might,
perhaps, affect this. In such a state of things, therefore,
_ . _ _

it behoved the freeholders of Stafford to return two indivi-
duals to Parliament who would fearlessly do their duty
and he was of opinion that the county, or the country it.
self, did not produce two better goal fled for that impor.
tant trust than their late Members.— (Great cheering. )-
11e begged, therefore, to propose Edward John Littleton
EN- • _ _ - . _

f'aANcts TWEMLOW, Esq. seconded the motion. Ile
fully concurred in all that had been expressed by the lion.
Baronet as to the qualifications of Mr. Littleton.
Sir Tuos. Parrott SIINNIXRD, Bart. proposed Sir
John Wrottesley. The satisfaction the county felt at the
manner in' which they had been represented in the lasi
Parliament made it unnecessary for him to enter into the
qualifications of the gentleman he then had the honour to
propane. He rejoiced that the day had arrived when they
could testify their gratitude by again returning their old
Members to Parliament. They had done their duty, and
would do it again,--(Cheers. )—He did not wish to ask
them to give their promise to support or oppose any parti-
cular measure; but, as a freeholder, his advice was, let
them go into the House of Commons free and unshackled.
Their past service* were the best pledge of their future
conduct.,-(Chterth)
Sir G. CIIRTWYNDE seconded the nomination.
COlollel CHIGTWYNDE sai I ho was unaccustomed to
public speaking, but he hoped the meeting would grant
him a little indulgence, whilst he made a few observations.
They had met to appoint proper- persons to represent
that great county in Parliament. It was the greatest ho-
nour the county could bestow, and it was a subject of con-
gratulation that their choice had fallen on two individuals
so well deserving of it.—(Cheere.)...-He hail not the ho.
noun of an intimate acquaintance with Sir John Wrottesley,
but he approved of his Parliamentary conduct. With Mr.
Littleton he had enjoyed a long and intimate acquaintance,
they were selwol-fellows, and he could take upon himself to
say, a more active, industrious Member never entered the
House of Commons.—(Clters.)-I'le was not present on
the day of nomination, but he had read the speeches of
the candidates, and must cantos himself somewhat dis-
appoints(' at the omission of one important subject. There
bad been no allusion to the agricultural interest of the
country.—( Hear, hear.)—lle hoped that he should not
give offence if he expressed a sincere wish that early
in the next Session of Parliament some measure on
this important subject would be brought forward. Mi-
nisters had said that the distress was partial, and that
relieving the country of four millions of taxes, by taking
off thip Beer Tax, &c, would relieve the country. He was
glad the.pour man was likely to get his beer cheaper, but
it would have eased the farmer much more if the Malt
Tax or Assessed Taxed had been repealed, or even if they
had been suspended only for a period of two years.—
(Hear.)—He must again hope Parliament' would not let
another Session pass without affording some relief to the
farmer. They had been told that the last Session was
long and laborious, but lie thought if that was so, there
had not been inrush don* to form the subject of eongratu-
latitm,—(Hear.)—The Hon. Gentleman then took a
review ut the Foreign Corn hill, whielt he admitted, on
some points, was necessary, hut contended that it re-
!wired much Alteration. Ho also alluded to the fallacy of
Minket', judging 1i returning prosperity in the country
from an increase of tonnage on canals, which was not a
autficient tent. He concluded by expressing his conviction
that two more able and discreet men than those proposed
that day c .uld not be found.
The HIGH SHERIFF enquired if it was the intention of
any freeholder to propose another candidate. No tine
coming forward, he declared that Edward John Littleton,
and Sir John Wrottesley, Bart., had been duly elected to
represent the enmity of St .fford in Parliament.
This announcement was received With great cheering.
After the return to the writ had been signed by the High
titteriff and several freehold! co,
Mr, LernaTon presented himself to the meeting, and
;poke to the following effects...
Gentlemen and freeholders of the county of Stafford,
mu have imposed upon me a difficult task, that of return-
ng you my thanks for the Pride and . gratitude I feel at

being this flay elected fir the sixth time, your repreaentst-
tie, in Parliament. I feel particularly the honour when I
consider that this great and opulent county contains a
many distinguished individuals to whom you could bay,
delegated the trust you have again reposed in me Ti
represent a county re t in works of indugry and enter-
wise, distinguishes, by weslth, intelligence, and independ•
ence of election, is no common matter of pride and satis-
faction, but the individual possessing that high honour
ought to feel a lively interest in the welfare of the county.
It is a ternatkiible circumstance, o,ntlemen, that at the

times in which we live, strong party feeling is scarcely
known, there are causes and times when such feelings are
justifiable and even necessary, hut in the absence of any
such cause, it became the members of the Legislature to
consider well the expenses and resources of the kingdom,
and make all salutary reforms consistent with the security
of the State ...-(Cheers. )0-4 am an enemy to hasty changes,
but I will always support mild and prudent measures hav-
ing suds an object,-(Chei/r4o*-4 consider it the duty of
every representative of the people to respect public opinion.
—( Great cheering.)—l am anxious now to allude to what
fell from my friend, Mr. Chetwynde, respecting the dia.
treased state of agriculture. I must naturally feel very
anxious on that subject, having a great interest at stake.
Not only is almost the whole of my income derived
from the soil, but 1 em also one of the largest
cultivator* of land in this county.—( Chet ring,
I have reflected well on the subject, and my opinion is,
that Parliament has done every thing that at present it is
medicable to be done for the relief of the agriculturist.--
(Hear, hear.)—Some may thick otherwise, but the good
effect that will ensue to agriculture will be from an eaten-
,inn of eammeeee,—(Hear, hear.).-.-Notwithstanding,
Gentlemen, the melancholy predictions relating to come
merce, I am of opinion it is only in its infancy, remove all
unnecessary restrictions from its wheels, and it will anon
extend itself.--(Cheere.)—My friend seems to think
greater relief would have beers felt by a repeal of the malt
duty than of the beer ; perhaps there might have been, but
Parliament could not shut its eyes to the claims of Indus.
try.- it could not longer say to the poor man you shall
pay 140 per cent; more for your beer, than if you could
afford to brew it yourself.—(Cheers.)—The poor man
hail a claim for relief, Another topic haul been alluded to,
vie. the inn-tailed tonnage on canals. I think this is no
criterion Ora healthy or improving state of trade, and was
surprised the observations passed the House of Ceimmons
No huts noticed;. the return was made just after six or ten
Tenths' depression, and in such cases it is always followed
Try an increased demand for time. There is another sub•
ject, Gentlemen, whiidi now engrosses public attention. It is
the gratifying events that have transpired across the Chem.
nel ; they mightharebern attended with awful consequences,
but the Revolution in France has been a most glorious one.
Perhaps: the circumstances are not sufficiently detailed to
warrant many remarks, but what has been published is
enough for the country to take a deep and lively interest
in what is going on. Not that this country has any fear
of her liheities, for we had a Monarch who prises) above
all other things the affection and good will of his subjects.
(Great cheeriug.)—Above all earthly ohjeets was it his
moat anxious wish to preserve inviolate those liberties for
which our ancestors fought and bled.—(Cheers.)—Antl if
it was otherwise—if there was any danger of these being
invaded, we should struggle for their preeervation with
the same heroic fortitude as the gallant people in France
bad done,.-.(Great cheeriro)-1 hope, Gentlemen, my
Sentiments on all conflicting interests nil! not run counter
to yours. On all snob _occasions, however, I mast judge
for myself, and I hope I shall so regulate my conduct that
00 all future occasions the same unanimity will prevail as:
on this flat . Gentlemen, allow me once more to return
yow sincere thanks. The. Hon. Member sat down
t amidst treinendona cheerina
J°llk4 Wlturrasurnext presented himself. The

ask of returning thanks for the honour he bad that day I
..e.eived was greatly aggravated by the speech of I,i-
lon. Colleague, which had embraced every topic, anti ii'
• td answered ni-st s ittsfactorily all the questions that had
~en put. It was difficult, therefore, for him (Sir Jolt.
Xrottesley) net to touch upon topics to which he had
oluded on the day of nomination. He wits at a fin
voids to express the gratitude and r. tippet he felt for their
Itinduen that day, and tlw unanimity that prevailed in
.gain electing him one of their Representatives to Parlia-
nent. H. was most anxious to perform its duties far ti e
;oud of the country, He could assure them he would do
4., to the best of his abilities, and with zeal and flithful-
iese...-.(Clieers.) The worthy Baronet who prnpnsed
aim, advised that the freeholders should not ask a condi.
late to pledge himself to any particular measure. When
le (Sir J. Wrottealey) first appeared amongst them, he
;ave nn pledge,--he bad never pledged himself ; but he
could refer to his past conduct, and ask, had he ever
icted contrary to those principles be at first professed ?
(Cheers.)—lle thought it was wrong for any con-
di late to pledge himself; fur, by so doing, he might
perhaps benefit some individuals to the great In-
jury of a majority of his constituents. He would,
however, on the occasion give one pledge, viz.—
liat if any thing should arise likely to benefit
the commerce and agriculture of the country, it
should have his hearty support--(Great cheering)—and
how could any one with consistency do more ? Look at
the events of the last ten days. Paris, to all appearances,
was in a state of quiet and tranquillity—in three short
days it presented a scene of carnage and bloodshed. Such
were the vicissitudes of human life. Charles X., who
had witnessed the sacrifice of one brother, who had him-
self lived long in exile, and for a length of time struggled
with adversity.....-that surest and best lesson to mankind—
yet this very man in a single moment had thrown aside
all the advantages himself and family were in possession
of, fur the prospect of reigning despotic. What a contrast
did the present glorious Revolution in France present
to the one that befits) agitated that country, and he could
only account for it (however it might have been radicated)
to the giant march of intellect.—(llea.)—France, and
other nations, from the difference of education, would, in
future, be guided by public opinion. It had been near
140 years since the glorious revolution in this country,
and he sincerely hoped that France might obtain the same
benefits as we did from that event. He hoped the same
blessings and liberties would extend to them. It would,
however, have the good effect of teaching the Kings of
all countries that they could not rule despotic, but that
they must exercise their power for the benefit of the
people.—(Cheers.) With respect to agriculture, he wished
to say a few words, lie was embarked in nearly the nine
boat as his !lon. Colleague, deriving as lit did his income
front that source. At the same time, however, he must reed-
lect he was also the represent ttive of commerce, and that it
was his duty to do equal justice to botb.—(Cheering. )
The Corn Laws were a difficult subject, and his own feel-
ings were to wait and see how the present system worked ;
the interests of commerce and agriculture were so com-
pletely blended, that one could riot be benefited at the in-
jury of the other.—(Cheers.)--.On all subjects of impel.-
tam he should actin that way which he thought hest for the
good of the country, and only wished to continue their
representative so long us he gave satisfaction. Parliamen-
tary duties were laborious even to a young man; the honour
however was great, but high as that honour was, it would
be lost to him if he thought that be sat in the House of
Commons against the wishes of his constituents. He
could wish they had an abler representative, but he knew
and felt conscious they could never have a more hone3t
one.—(Cheers.)-11e sincerely thanked them for the
ho-
nour they had conferred upon him.
On the motion of the liev. CLARE, seconded by
Sir Oswm.o Mosv.i.e.v, Bart., the thanks of the meeting
were given to the High-Sheriff.
The Ilton-Siineivr—Centlemen, I beg leave to return
you my sincere thanks.
The meeting, after giving several rounds of cheers, was
dissolved. Immediately after which Mr. Litt'eton and
Sir John Wrottesley were chaired from the Town•hall to
the Swan Inn, where they threw away " silver" to the
crowd, and in the evening gave a dinner to the freeholders.

FREACH REVOLUTION.

(From t e Moniteur of Thursday.)
" CHAMBER OF DEPUTIES, Aua. 5.

" M. Gateau lie Itochtfoicauld reported from the sixth
ttreau. Ho state,' that a prote4 from a great number of
1. ctors for the deoarttnent of the Var complained that the
,creery of the btllot had been viobved, in consequence of
the Prvtltlent ef the College having refused to allow a
carton, or oaateltuard covering, to be placed on the desk to
c,mceal the vote% He therefore propotitd to adjourn the
atimisuion of M. Auran de Pierrefu.

" M. Viennet—Eighty two electors of Toulon insi.ted
upon geeret voting, and placed a carton on the bureau ;
the President ordered it to be thrown down. They ap—
pealed to the law, but the President told them he knew
nothing but the practice. The election having taken
place in a in ‘ritime town, where there is a great number
of persons in the employment of the Governntut, I move
that it be declared null.

" After some discussion the admission of the Deputy re-
turned wu adjourned.
"M. Audry de Puyraveau steed that 35 electors of the
Lower Alps had protested against a manifest violation of
the secrecy of voting. The electors had been obliged to
write their bulletins too near the President; and in the
view of the scrutators. These circumstances, and the
smallness of the majority, were considered by the first
bureau sufficient grounds for annulling the election of MM.
Mieulle and Magnet'.
" M. Alexander Noailles—l move that the Deputies of
the Lower Alps, who were present at the election, be
heard.
" Several voices—They were heard yesterday, and they
might have appeared this morning in the first bureau.
" M. Mieulle—l am surprised that this report should
he made before I have been heard. Yesterday I asked the
reporter to inform me when the first bureau was to meet.
"M. B. Constant—l move to adjourn the motion un-
til to-morrow, and no later. The Chamber must pro-
nounce on the scandalous violation of the secrecy of voting,
which has been the cause of so much mischief. I say,
without prejudice to this question, what I think is the
Course to lie pumert. It is fit that we should to-mor-
row ascertain whether those who sit here are really the
provisional representatives of the nation.

" M. Alexander Noadles—That is what we all desire.
" M. Petott—We are not provisional representatives
We are here in virtue of the charter.

" Al. Charles Dupin—l formally protest against the
expression provisional representatives' used by M. B.
Constant.

" M. Duvergier Ilauranne—l am for the adjournment;
because the investigation Aria require some time. Besides,
there is another reason. To-morrow we mly have to
deliberate on things still more important than elections.—
(Hear, hear.)
#6 M. Villemain.—lf the Chamber have no other imme-
diate business, I think it can do nothing better than de-
cide on this question. It is certain that on the first day
of the election for the Lower Alps, the tables were so
placed that the secrecy of voting could not be observed.
The place where the bulletins were to be written WWI so
artfully prepared that the suffrages were secret or not,
just as the electors pleased. But this is not according to
the spirit of the law. The secrecy of voting is not op-
tional ;it is imperative. Every elector who departs from
the precautions for secrecy, by that act makes known his
vote.

Voices on the right.—Adjourn.
" Voices on the left.—No adj mrnment ; annul.
" M. Mieulle --Dismiss us, but hear us first.
" N. Maguan.—We were the first to propose explana-
tion. Ne election was ever snore free. We appeal to al who
were present. We request a postponement till to-morrow,
that the facts may be better ascertained.
" After some further discussion the question was re-
ferred to the first bureaux, with instructions to take into
immediate consideration the disputed election.
" N. de Vatismenil made a report on the election for
Corsica, in which the secrecy of voting had been violated,
notwithstanding the protests of a number of the electors.
" After some discussion the election was annulled.
" A discussion arose on the choice of a President; and
it was proposed that the four candidates remaining after

the selection of the Lieutenant-General should be-Vice-
Presidents. In the course of the debate the President
stated that some communications were expected from the
Government, the oLject of which would be to give to the
Chamber the right of directly nominating its President.
" M. C. Dupin—What we have to do is very plain.

Let us form, as usual, 11 lAt of five mintlitlates for the Pre-
iiideney. If the Lieutenant-General declines to make e
choice, the candidate at the howl of the Ike will be the
Pres4lent, and the °theta Vior-Pr..ahleute.

" M Demarcay supported this proposition.
" M. C. Dupin-1 speak with the charter in my hand.
" A voice on the highest bench of the left side (one of
the papers says M. de Corerlles).--The charter is defunct.
"M. Vi..nnet.—Can such language be held ? •
" Mier some further debate, the Chamber proceeded to
the ballot tOr candidate*.
The President stated the result of the scrutiny thus Number of of voters, 218 ; ~bsolute majority, 110; M.
Ctsimir Perrier, 110 ; 141. Jacques LaCte, 160 ; Benja.
min Delstnert, 128; Dupin Mae, 120; Royer Collard,
100 ; Benjamin Constant, 95.
" A second ballot took place for a choice between M.
Royer Collard and M. Benjtmin Constant. The former
obtained 116 votes, and the letter, 96. M. Royer Cola
Lied was therefore declared the fifth candidate.
" EVENING SITTING.

" M Lobbey de Pompierre, the President by age, halt.
ing, with a deputat on, waited on the Lieut.-General to
present to him the list of candidates, now returned and re-
ported that the Lieut.-General had said—
" ' I should have wished that the Chamber had made
the nomination directly itself, but we must submit to the
law. Of this I shall always give the example. I hope
that this will be the last time that this list will be pre-
sented to me.'

"This answer excited strong marks of disapprobation
throughout the whole of the Chamber.
" In consequence of the complaints of the absence of
some Members, M. de la Pommeraqe moved a Call of the
Chamber, but after some debate, his motion for culling
over the names wag rejected.
" The Chamber then chose four Secretaries, and ad-
journed."

" PARIS, AIM. 5

" It is requisite that all the episodes of the Revolution
should be impressed with the general character of mode-
mien and genetosity which has distinguished it up to
this day.
" Charles X. has formed at Rambouillet a camp in
whirlt several corps of the Royal Guards were placid round
him. It was impossible to sutler to subsist at the gates of
the capital en armed force which did not depend upon the
established Government, and which, by its bare presence
nest' Paris,
kept the peop'e there in a state of denprous
irritation; in fact, the agitation increased even in an
alarming manner in the capital, and there was every mo-
ment reason to fear that mimes of the population would,
of their own accord, march to Ramliouillet. The Lieut...
General of the Kingdom then perceived the necessity of
anticipating the movements which the prolongation of the
abode of Charles X at Rambouillet could not fail to pto-
(lnce, in order to place at its head chiefs, who, by regulk•
ring it, might prevent the excesses which there was reason
to apprehend. He felt, also, that his personal sentiments
of affiletion and relationship dictated to him the same mea-
sures that were commanded by his deities towards the
country, and especially by that of stopping the effusion of
blood, and hindering the French front again destroying
each other.

The Lieutenant• General resolved, therefore, to take
betimes a prompt and vigorous resolutioe. lie ordered
General Lafayette to cause 6,000 men of the National
Guard to march towards Ranabouillet, hoping that this
demonstration would suffice to direct the popular move.;
ments, and induce Charles X. to take the only step which
so many circumstances united to make him adopt—that of
retiring and dissolving the assembly with: which he was
still surrouuded.

" Mit as soon as it was perceived that the Nsf lanai
Guard was preparing to march, ths number of those who
voluntarily joined it increased so much, that between
40,000 and 60,000 men immediately set out with that
eagerness which distinguishes the French nation in its en-
terpriser. The rapidity and energy of this movement has
proved what it can do when it agrees in principle and in
action with its Government.

However, at the same time `that the Duke of Orleans
fulfilled with so much resolution his duties as head of the
state, he gave every thing that he owed to misfortune and
to the dignity of France. He chose three Commissioners
—Marshal Maison, M. de Schoneo, and M. Odillon limos
Igo to King Charles X., and to take care for his
'slaty as far as the frontier.

..Whoever NM this immense crowd, covering the road
from Paris to Versailles, proceeding towards Bamboxillet,
and eager to fight, might have feared a new effusion of
blood. But, no; the Commissioners preceded the column
by some hours; they see the King—they urge him in the
nom of humanity, not to cause French blood to ba dud
in vain, and at length induced him to depart. Well, at
the bare news of the departure of the Kings the Perim
