• SIR,-- To-dity the streets of tite capital are lined
with troops and National Guards. Toklay there is
anxiety in every countenance, and apprehension in
every family. To-day commerce is suspended—the
Funds are falling still lower in value, and there
exists much agitation and alarm: You will be sorry
to hear this, and you will be anxious to learn the
reason. Then. listen to me a few minutes, and I

will tell you the whole truth. In times like these
it is more than ever necessary to speak out, without
fear, and to let no one be deceived through igno-
rance. I know that I urn acquainted with all that
is going on here, and I may do some more good by
speaking out in the columns of the Morning (Yon-
nick.
Well, then, " the people" are net yet satisfied!
you Ask me why? 'I will tell you. The people
fought toestablislt a principle, to overturn a dynasty,
end to get rid of a system. The principle was the
sovereignty of the people, the dynesty was that of
the Bourbons, and the system was that of the Mo-
narchy. The people generally feel that the actual
Government neither understands the power, the
wishes, nor the wants of those who made the Re-
volution; and the Government, in its turn, thinks
that the violence of the workmen, their menaces,
illegal acts, riotous assemblies and processions, and
refined to return to order and peace, proceed from
mistaken notions, or from the impulsion given to
them by wicked and unprincipled men, by disap-
pointed Royalism, discharged Placemen, Ex-Peers,
Ex ]deputies, and Ex-Courtiers, and that there are
HO teal grievances of which the workmen can justly
complein.
I bat the people are excited by the Jesuits, Priests,
Royalists, Gendarmes, mid Military Officers, is an
undoubted fact ; and the arrest of some of these in-
dividuals, no further beck than to-day, puts this
question out of all possible doubt. I announced it
to you several days since, and every list of destitu-
tion% In the Monileur naturally swells the ranks of
the enemy. But though all this is true, a the
people are not vet satisfied."
In saying what I am about to state I have but
one object—the advantage of the millions. Kings
and Ministers have defenders enotigh at all times.
The Treasury can always seenre eulogists and ora-
tors, but We live in times when the people will be
heard, and when their interests most be attended to.
I have no wish to offend, to impede the march of
the present Government—to excite prejudices, or
even to indirectly injure a good cause; but it is
necessary to speak out, and I am much mistaken if
the Ministers themselves will be eventually dis-
pleased, If I did not know that the Morning
Ciironiete has for years past been read by the Duke
of Oaten', now the enlightened King of the French,
it would be -scarcely worth making suggestions or
tefiLrre ingopirions in its columns; hut with. that fact
mete, ant resolved co speaking out.
