FRANCE,

The Assembly met on Friday at three o'clock. M.
Dapin, President, took the chair.
M. Ledru Rollin, returned in the departmenie of the
Allier, Horault, Saune et Loire, Seine, and Var. not hav-
ing mace a selection in the proper time, the President
drew by lot the department he was to represent. M.
Felix Pyat, being in the same case, a similar operation
took place. M. Ledru Rollin is to represent the Var,
and M. Pyat the Nievre.

M. Dup-in next read to the Assembly a requisitory of
the Attoiney-General of the Court of Appeal of Paris,
stating that it appeared from documents found in the
hall of the Conservatoire des Arts et Métiers that seve-
ral other representatives had participated in the con•
sPiranY, having for its object the overthrow of the
existing Government. The originals of three docu-
ments, signed by them, were annexed to the requi-
sitory. In one of them the anarchists of Saone et
Loire were told that the movement had succeeded in
Paris; that the members of the Montagne had crosssed
the capital amidst cries of "Vine la, Constitution !"
and constituted themselves en permanence at the Con-
servatoire des Arts et Métiers, where they were prepar-
ing a petition to the people, calling them to arms, and
recommending their friends in that department to give,
without delay, the signal of insurrection at Macon and
throughput the mining districts of the Loire. That
document was signed by Messrs. Menaud, Rolland,
Rougeot, Laudolphe, Jancot, and Pffieger; the second
document, dated 3 o'clock P.M., signed by Messrs. Me-
naud and Heitzmann, was to the same effect; and the
third, signed by L. Avril, stated that the Montagne was
an permanence, under the protection of the artillery of
the National Guard, and that the people had taken arms
in defence of the Constitution. The writer, in conclu-
sion, urges the inhabitants of Grenoble to rise in sup-
port of their Parisian brethren. The Attorney-General
accordingly demanded to be authorised to prosecute the
representatives of the people whose names were affixed
to that document.
A member from Grenoble here rose and observed that
Leon Avril was not a member of the Assembly; that it
was his brother, Felix Avril, who had been elected at
Grenoble.

The President replied that the committee would in-
-estigate the fact.
M. Gindriez, who followed, said that his name was
affixed to the first document published in the Dir De-
vmbre, and declared that it was a barefaced forgery.
le had remained, during the whole of the 13th, in the
Assembly, but should probably have joined his friends
if he had known where and for what object they met.—
(Murmurs.)
The President then stated; that urgency was de-
aanded by the Attorney-General and consulted the As-
mably. Urgency was granted without opposition, the
eft abstaining from voting, and the Assembly next

-.solved to retire into its bureaux to examine the re.
isitory. _ _ _ _ _ _ .

Berryer observed, that the facts contained in it were
r and could not be referred to the existing committee.
'wild accordingly be necessary to elect a new coin-
ee to report upon those facts. This was agreed to,
the Assembly retired into its bureaux.
kt 20 minutes to five the Assembly re-entered the
11, when M. Dupin announced having received a letter
n the Minister of War, informing him that.the fune-
f Marshal Bugeaud d'ls!y would take place at the
ides ou Thursday, the 19th inst., at 10 o'clock Aar.
to reporter of the Committee to which the demand
e Attorney-General of DTI), for leave to prosecute
iolland, a representative of the peop;e, for a sedi-
speech delivered at Macon, on the 9th of May
had been referred, stated that the Committee was
,nion to grant the authorisation, which was agreed
the Assembly.
Beugnot next ascended the tribune, and in the
of the committee chosen to examine the requisi-
, presented by the Attorney-General in the course
the day, proposed to authorise the prosecution of
issrs. Menaud, Rolland, Rougeat, Landolphe, Jannot,
dieger, Heitzman, and Avril. The conclusions of
,he committee, on being put from the chair, were
adopted by an immense majority, the Left taking no
part in the vote.—(Left sitting.)
