CIRCULAR OF HIS EXCELLENCY THE MINISTER
OF GENERAL POLICE TO THE PREFECTS. -

ig Gentlemen,—The law of the 29th of October confers
great powers on the government of the Kiug. Called to par-
ticipate with us the duties imposed on those who are charged
with its execution, you must exert all your care to thoroughly
'whin-Stand the Spirit of its regulations.

" This extraordinary measure will ensure the .tranquillity
nf the State, if it is wisely applied ; it will exeite'd'isfurba-nCe,
if the Magistrates substitute an arbitrary for a just sere, its,
if they render themselves the involuntary instruments of
private passions, or of blind prejudices.
" The sole object of the law is to supply a deficiency in the
existing lass s, and to give to a vigilant administration the
power of action necessary to prevent crimes, which justice is
frequently out of the condition of attacking and punishing.
" The actual state of legislation has experienced no change
as far as relates to the prosecution of these ()rinses; when jus-
tice cars find in the declaratory part of the process the de-
ments of conviction against their authors; but being com-'
pelled to swerve from the general rules by which all arrested
persons ought to be tried, the legislature above all applied
itsey to prevent any arbitrary proceeding. ln the first place
it whiled, that the execution of the law- should be confided
only to public functionaries, clothed with a legal character,
aud that no warratit should be ordered except by the Magis-
trates on whom the code of criminal instruction conferi this
le)war ; you know that, except in the case of flagrant offense,
this right belongs only to the dsidges of :ialrucauit, (police
ni,+,i3trates) to the PrefeCtS of a department, or .to the Pre-
La. of Police at Paris.

" It i 3 not without design ihat the kw points out those
whom it wishes to reach by the denomination of 'Provenu ; it
has thus wished to make known that it is not on simple su-
spicions, or on vague charges,that a citizen is to he deprived
of his liberty, and that its regnlations do not apply, except
where the insufficiency and not the absence of proofs prevents
the mattrr from being submitted to the tribunals.

•4. When the Judge of Instruction (a Justice of the Peace)
has issued a, warrant in consequence of ally of the facts by•
law specified, he. must give an account of it to you within 24
lours; when the warrant is issued by yourselves, you at'►
bound in the same manner to inform the King's. Procureur of
the arrondiisement: such is the path traced by the law, and
th•judisia.l asitholity is thus found, in all cams, to be 'a►ssor
