-req:ilutiou, the Chambers would be immediately eon

yoked. The news which has transpired shows that the
adversaries of Mehemet Ali have at empted the only well
foreseen coercive mans, viz., the insurrection of Syria,
and that hitherto it has not succeeded. Taere is no-
. thing in that which diminishes the gravity of the situa-
tion of things ; but ti-ire is nothing to add to its ur-
gency. In any case, we hffi-m that no portion of a
time so precious to France has been or Will he lost.
We will now add, that the Cabinet does not fear to meet
the Chambers. It wishes it ; it will be happy when the

day shall arrive for it to throw upon the Chambers a
portion of its immense burden. Confident in the reli-
gious observance of all its duties, it does not dread the
presence of the Chambers. There are many falsehoods,
raany intrigues, which would be dissipated by public
discussion. The Government, therefore. inip,ses a
sacrifice upon it-self in not convening the Chambers.

T,HE RECENT DISTURBANCES.
(From Galignani's illesscnger.)
Trapquillity has net been again disturbed in the capital,
and every thing has this morning resumed its wonted
appearance. The. following are some additional parti-
eulasicoonected with the occurrences of yesterday :
M. Thiers was at the Prefecture of Poice during
part of the clay. The chief command of all the forces
- in Paris was given to Marshal Gerard. The forces on
the Boulevards were commanded by General Darriule
The number of National Guards and troops of all kinds
under arms was calculated at five thousand. In most
• of 'the communes of the banlieue of Paris the National
Givirds turn, d out under arms yesterday afternoon. Tile
troops of St. Denis were under arins during the afternoon.
Several detachments of troops arrived from Fontaine
Mean during the day, conveyed by the steamers that
navigate the Upper Seine. It was reported that an
attempt to rescue Prince Louis Napoleon from the Coo-
ciergerie bad been meditated, and that the Prince bad, in
consequence, been removed to Vincennes ; both these
rumours were totally unfounded. Tne Courrier Francais
states that the workmen in the Faubourg St. Antoine,
• early yesterday morning, attempted to disarm several
sentinels, and that the Municipal Guards were assailed
with stones. In the afternoon, a workman, who had
-been encouraging others to revolt, was arrested on the
• Place tic la Bastille. A loaded pistol, some cartridges,
and a dagger, were found in his pockets. In the course
of the morning an assemblage of weavers took place on
the Place Maubert, and another of other workman in
the Faubourg St. Marceau, but they were soon dis-
persed. The Audience statoa that the journeymen ca-
. binet.makers are 2.5,000 in number, and the masters
3,000. The formercomplain, it says, of sales of new
• furniture at low prices made at the Salle des Commis-
saires Priscurs, on the Place de la Bourse, as injuring
- the trade ; and they had determined to go to the sale
and drive off both buyers and the auctioneers, but they
were dissuaded from their purpose. A meeting of the
masters was held yesterday.
The annexed proclamation was posted yesterday on
the walls of the capital :
" Prefecture of Police, Paris, Sept. 7.
" The Prefect of Police egain reminds the workmen
of Paris that the enemies of order wish to lead them to
the commission of illegal and seditious acts. Let them
be careful not to listen to dangerous councils. Let
them separate instantly from the perturbators who
mislead them ; let all prudent man return to their
workshops or their houses, and cease to station them•
selves in the streets or other public places. Every
assemblage contrary to public order will be immediately
dispersed by force. The Government which protects
public peace, the freedom of trade, and the security of
families, has taken all necessary measures to repress
with promptitude and energy every attempt against the
order and tranquillity of Paris.

" G. DELESSERT."

The master mechanicians and machine manufacturers
of Paris have held a meeting to take into considera-
tion the claims of their workmen, and have decided
that since they can with ditliculty contend against the
opposition of country and foreign manufacturers in
the same line, to accede to the demands of their men
would so far cripple or injure their trade as ultimately
to brim.; about its total ruin. Toey have therefore
published a note, in which they refuse to agree to
them, and exort the men to return peaceably to their
work.

(From the Constiluiionnel.)

On the roornitr, of the 7t h a commencement of agi-
tation was felt in the Faubourgs S. Antoine and Si.
Marceau, where groups were formed,i chi' fly of idle
workmen. These crowds excited, some fear in these
quarters, anal all the sto were shut immediately.
At about twelve o'clock
Place de la Bastille, men stopped, above the
omirbmeugoing to the Btrriere du
Trone, and threw it down in thes m
middle of the street, de-
clarng their intention of making a barricadeln ;,
but a piquet

of Municipal Guards came up tel y got up the
ri
omnibus and dcsersed the group, which
went off in the direction of St. .Maude andin4mnee'etinditicels)
Strong detachments of Municipal Guards came to the
spot.
This eve'it, the news of which spread all through
Paris., led to the general belief that there had bee
collision'. The drums beat in every quarter. I:
little time Paris was covered with military posts, N.
anal Guards, troops of the line, and Municipal CGuards.
Large detachments of infantry occupied the principal
squares and barriers, bridges, and crossings, as well as
'the principal issues from the boulevards.
At the Caere St. Martin a piquet of cavalry was
stationed till the evening. There were besides on the
Place de Greve numerous detachments co cavalry of
the line and Municipal Guards, a battalion of infantry
~formed into square, in the middle of which %vete seventh
Pieces of artillery. A detachment of engineers was ill-
o stationed there.

line

nr"that this distrib,.tion o-f
for es was arranged with
greatest care in order to Make any kind of ontute
P ossible, or else to make sure of its immediate re-
pression.
Except the attempt at ma'ding a bat-ricade, nothing
.happened during
military
day calculated to excite the least
order of the authorities force which was called out by
formed a striking contrast with
the attitude of the:. rester i art of the Parisian popu-
lotion. At nine the troops of the line began to regain
their barracks ; at ten the last piquets were within, and
Paris had resumed its ordinary aspect,
