The will of the Duchess de Praslin was deposited
on Tuesday in the hands of the President of the Tri i.
-
bunal. The Duchess de Praslin had made disposi-
tions, by which her husband obtained life interests of
a considerable amount. It appears that, in speaking
of the education of her children, she manifests the
desire that one of the eminent professors of the capi-
tal, emd not a governess, shall be chosen for them.
A, crowd assembled on Wednesday evening near
the. prison of the Luxembourg, and became so tur-
buileat, some of the persons composing it declaring
that they would not believe the Duke de Praslin was
dead, and demanding to see the body, that it became
necessary to disperse the assemblage by an armed
&roe. One of the journals states that several of tb'e
pert urbators were arrested.
