THE COMMISSION.
DUBLIN, AUG. 17. —The Lord Chief Baron and Baron Pen-
nefather took their seats on the bench shortly after ten
o'clock this morning, when the jury panel was called over on
fines of 501. ; but, notwithstanding the severity of the penalty,
forty-six persons only answered to their names. The list
having been gone through a second time, eight jurors more
answered to their names.
INTIMIDATION OF JURORS.
Before any further business was proceeded with, Mr. Sa-
muel Waterhouse, foreman of John Martin's jury, begged to
bring under the consideration of their Lordships the facts
of a case personally affecting himself, and which occurred
late on the preceding evening. He stated that he had
scarcely reached home, after discharging his duty as a juror,
when two gentlemen called at his house, and requested to
see him. The communication having been made to him, he
instantly came down stairs to the hall, where the two stran-
gers were, and immediately recognized one of them as Mr.
James Martin, who had been examined as a witnes on the
day preceding, on his brother's trial. On his presenting
himself, Mr. Martin asked him whether his name was not
Waterhouse, and on his replying in the affirmative, he said,
" I came here to challenge you to mortal combat, for having
bullied the jury in the case of my brother." He (Mr.
Waterhouse) denied that he had acted as had been alleged;
that he had sworn to return a true verdict, according to the
evidence, and had endeavoured to discharge the responsible
duty cast upon him "well and truly." He expressed his
disinclination to enter into the conflict desired by Mr.
Martin, and then handed him over to the police authorities.
Subsequently, however, the solicitor of Mr. Martin waited upon
him, and expressed on the part of that gentleman's family the
great regret they felt on hearing of the outrage which
had been committed, and assured him that it would cause a
painful impression on the prisoner's mind—not that it might
serve to increase the measure of his punishment, but regret
for the part his brother had acted. He (Mr. Waterhouse)
felt bound to inform the Court that he had received a most
ample apology from Mr. James Martin for the manner in
which he had acted, alleging, in extenuation, that it arose
from the state of excitement in which he was at the moment.
That letter was sent from the Police-office.
The CHIEF BARON—Is he there now?
Mr. Waterhouse—Yes, my Lord.
The CHIEF BARON—In making the statement you have,
you have done your duty as regards the administration of
Justice in a manner creditable to yourself. If the person who
committed this act were not now in the hands of justice, we
should consider it our duty to call on you to make an affi-
davit on which we would issue a warrant to make him sub-
ject for contempt. As he is now amenable to justice, we do
not think it necessary to take that course.
Mr. Burr—.We will produce the young gentleman here
to answer for his contempt. On the part of his unhappy
family, I have to say that nothing could be more creditable
than the manner in which this matter has been brought
forward. No sentence which can be passed on the prisoner
could give him more agony than this act of his brother's,
and when, on a former occasion, another juryman was as-
sailed, he expressed his disapprobation of it.
The CHIEF BAsoN—As respects the prisoner, it is impos-
sible this matter can have the slightest effect on our minds.
Mr. Burr—l believe that, my Lords; it is solely for the
sake of his character I speak. His brother will attend here
at any hour you may appoint, and submit to any punish-
ment you may think proper to inflict.
CHIEF BARON—Let him attend at four o'clock.
SECOND TRIAL OF O'DOHERTY.
The appointed business for this morning—the second trial
of Mr. Kevin Izod O'Doherty—did not commence until
nearly three o'clock this afternoon ; the time from the
sitting of the Court at ten o'clock, A.M., having been wasted
—as usual, we may say—by matter quite foreign to the
issue.

The Clerk of the Crown then proceeded to call over the
jury list, but was interrupted by Sir Colman O'Loghlen,
who handed in a challenge to the array, on the ground that
the panel did not contain a proportionate number of Roman
Catholics.
Triers were then appointed, and, after a protracted dis-
cussion, the challenge was disallowed.
After a number of challenges, both on the part of the
Crown and prisoner, the following jury were sworn:—
David Alexander, William Carson, Joseph Robert Comyns,
John Cannon, James Wilson, George Lyons, William P.
Lowry, James Hare, James 'Hunter, John Harris, Samuel
M'Allister, Francis Walker.
The SOLICITOIi.GENI:KAL was stating the case to the jury
at post hour.

DUBLIN, FRIDAY MORNING.
The Solicitor-General's statement to the jury, in the case
of the Queen v. O'Doherty, embraced much the same topics,
and was supported by nearly the same arguments as those
employed by the Attorney-General on the former trial.
The first witness called by the Crown was--
Francis M`Keever—lle deposed that he knew the prisoner
for four or five years: was engaged in the same establish-
ment with him, namely, that of Mr. Donovan's apothecary;
Mr. O'Doherty was then serving his apprenticeship; wit-
ness was at present Mr. Donovan's assistant; witness was
acquainted with the handwriting of the prisoner (a docu-
ment was here put into the witness's hand); he believed
this to be in the handwriting of Mr. O'Doherty. I have no
doubt that the paper produced (the manuscript of the arti-
cle headed " Our Harvest Prospects ") is in the prisoner's
handwriting. (Another document—the manuscript of the
article headed " Our War Department"—was here put into
the witness's hands.)—This is not in the prisoner's hand-
writing. I used to live in Poolbeg-street, and was not
then very will off. I was not promised anything for giving
my evidence, nor do I expect anything, on my oath. (The
manuscript of the articles headed " A Lesson from the In-
surrection in Paris," and "Courage," were here put into the
witness's hands, and he stated they were not in the pri-
soner's handwriting.)
Mr. Vernon, of the Stamp-office, was next examined—He
deposed to the declaration of proprietorship of the Tribune
having been lodged in his office, signed by Mr. O'Doherty
and Mr. Williams, and Daniel Hoban, the printer; and also
to copies of each publication of that paper, signed by the
prisoner, having been lodged there.
Constable Michael M‘Ginn 12 G, examined—He bought
the newspaper produced at the office of the Tribune on the
Bth of July.
Sergeant Prender examined by Mr. BALDWIN—On the Bth
of July last he went to the printing establishment of Mr.
pardon, on Bachelor's-walk, armed with a warrant for the
arrest of a person named Hoban. After arresting Hoban, he
got from him certain manuscripts connected with the Tribune
newspaper, which he brought away to the detective office, in
Exchange-court, and locked up there. They were after-
wards taken to the Lower Castle-yard. The manuscripts
already referred to were produced, and identified by the wit-
ness as those which he had seized.
The several documents tendered by the Crown in evidence,
including the manuscript of the article entitled " Our Har-
vest Prospects," were then put in and entered as read, which
closed the proceedings in this case for the day.
Mr. Martin, brother to Mr. John Martin, recently tried and
convicted, was then, at the command of the Chief Baron,
pled at the bar of the Court.
'Waterhouse was also called, but he was not in attendance.
The CHIEF BARON said, we desire Mr. Martin and Mr.
Waterhouse to be in attendance at the sitting of the Court
to-morrow morning.
Mr. O'RunKE then applied that Mr. Martin might be al-
lowed to stand out on bail, stating that he would be respon-
sible fcr his appearance next morning.
The application was granted.
The Court then adjourned to ten this morning.
LATEST FROM THE AUG.
CLONMEL, THURSDAY EVENING, AUG. 17.—About nine
o'clock en the night of the 14th a party of dragoons arrived
in Limerick, bringing with them, from Abbeyfeale, Mr.
Hartnett, who, we are informed, was arrested on a charge
of high treason. He is charged with being the person who
headed the party that stoped the mails a few days ago in that
neighbourhood. On his arrival in Limerick he was lodged
in the county gaol. He complained of great weakness and
exhaustion, and was kindly provided with tea ; he was
offered, but declined, spirits, saying he had not taken any
for many years.
At two o'clock' on the 15th another body of dragoons
and some infantry escorted into prison about 25 of Hartnett's
followers—men,; women, and, children, whose appearance
was miserable in the extreme. As they passed through the
streets while it was raining fearfully, the impression pro-
duced on the Limerick mob was woful. Indeed their ap-
pearance was not calculated to make one think highly of
the Abbeyfeale division of the rebel army, as commanded by
General Hartnett.
Wednesday the detective police arrested a gentleman
named John Martin Burke, who gave his address Fort Wil-
liam, Scotland. Mr. Burke was committed to Newgate under
the recent Act of Parliament.
Full committals, by warrants, signed by his Excellency,
have been lodged at Newgate on the following persons:
Richard F. Ryan, Eugene Martin, James Lawlor, and Timothy
Setoa.
A gentleman who travelled through the counties of Lime-
rick and Tipperary yesterday, states all excitement has sub-
sided, and that the people were pursuing their usual business.
The potato blight, it appears, is on the increase in these
districts.
DEPARTURE OF STATE PRISONERS.
Thirteen of the persons in custody for political offences,
including Patrick O'Higgins, Mr. S. J. Meaney, and J. Taffe,
barrister, arrived at Kingston this morning, by the seven
o'clock train, and were put on board a Government steamer,
which steamed at once from the jetty, bearing towards the
north. It is supposed their destination is either Carrick-
fergus, county Antrim, or Fort George, Scotland. The pri-
soners were escorted to Kingston by a large body of the
metropolitan police. There was not the slightest excitement,
nor was there apparently any sympathy for the patriots.

doctrines. He threatened to resign. It would have been
dangerous, as we had no power. What would have been
the result if a conflict had occurred then? The same elements
of disorder that exist now existed then. The city of Paris
ran the risk of being sacked.
President--Is it the dissenting element in the Government
which opposed the return of the army to Paris?
M. Arago—Yes ; but the clubs had a great :deal to say to
it. They were very threatening on that point. In my capa-
city of Minister of War, I took it upon myself to recall same
of the troops. I was obliged to have recourse to a subterfuge
to procure artillery. I then recalled two regiments of in-
fantry and two of cavalry. I did not give in to the menaces
of the clubs, who were confident that no more troops should
be seen in Paris.
President—You had thus two elements opposed to you,
the Republique Rouge and Socialism. Were those elements
leagued together against you?
M. Arago--Sometimes they were united, sometimes not.
M. Ledru-Rollin never shared the Socialist principles of M.
Louis Blanc; but in otter respects they acted in concert,
especially as regards the adjournment of the elections.
That adjournment gave rise to a violent controversy. M.
Ledru-Rollin did not think that France was democratic
enough. He thought that time should be allowed for it to
inculcate democratic principles; that an adjournment was
therefore indispensable. As regards the coercive measure,
MM. Leclru-Rollin and Louis Blanc were of the same
opinion. M. Ledru-Rollin made a report to the Govern-
ment on the events of Rouen. That report was not favour-
able to the two generals who gave the orders there. At the
conclusion of this report a proposition was made by Louis
Blanc to recal the two generals, and try them by court.
martial. This led to a violent discussion. I opposed it, and
finally carried the point.
President—At the manifestation cf the 16th of March cries
were raised of " Vive Ledru-Rollin1" What interpretation
may be set upon them?
Arago—The National Guards made a manifestation,
which I may qualify as ridiculous. I was conveying M.
Ledru-Rollin in my carriage; a National Guard exclaimed,
" A bas Ledru-Rollin 1" I said to him, " You are not aware
of the imprudence you are eommitting. You are not aware
that it was here Foulon was killed; that your exclamations
may cause a similar disaster." The shouts ceased. On ar-
riving at the place of the Hotel de Ville, cries of Vive Le-
dru-Rollin!" succeeded the former ones, which were uttered
on the Quai Pelletier.
President—What was the object of the counter-revolution
of the 17th of March?
M. Arago—l was not a witness of the facts ; I was not able
to go to the Hotel de Ville. I had two Ministries to attend
to. I remained at the Ministry of War.
President—What is your opinion of the manifestation of
the 16th of April?
M. Arago—On the eve we were informed that the mani-
festation would be on a large scale. The Government de-
cided on not proceeding to the Hotel do Ville, so as not to
comply with the exactions which might be demanded; it
was resolved not to go there until the National Guard were
masters of the movement. I, however, proceeded there at
one o'clock. I only found MM. Buchez and 124 curt. They
were anxious at being there alone. They made me remain;
but shortly afterwards I withdrew to the Mairie of the Bth
arrondissement. The Bth Legion behaved well. From there.
I could procure ammunition from Vincennes; Colonel Rey,:
who afterwards came to parley with the eineute, undertook!
the defence of the hotel de Ville, for which he was answer-
able, and moreover, three guns were to be fired to warn me of
danger.
President—On this day, what part did the two elements
play, with which we were occupied just now? An investiga-
tion was set on foot, what became of it ?
M. Arago--I am not aware whether that manifestation was
provoked by these elements; I am ignorant of the details of'
the investigation.
President—Was not that investigation dropped on the ocsi
casion of the fete of the colours?
M. Arago—lt was under the Arc de Triomphe that M.
Caussidiere came and informed me that M. Blanqui had
not been arrested, notwithstanding my orders. That deter-
mination was adopted in consequence of the greatness of the
manifestation, and not to :attach too great-importance to
Blanqui.
The Preeident—Will you explain yourself on the events of
the 15th of May.
M. Arago—We were told on the eve that a manifestation
would take place in favour of Poland. We feared that
Poland was only a pretext; every precaution was taken to
prevent the mob arriving at the hall of the Assembly. The
most formal orders were given to that effect. We were con-
vinced that it was impossible for any human force to cross
the threshold of the Assembly. When I heard of the viola-
tion which had taken place,
I was surprised, indignant,
furious. We immediately consulted on the best measures
to liberate the Assembly; but there was an apprehension.
We feared exposing the members of the Assembly to the
risk of being assassinated ; thence arose the necessity of
temporising. Some of the members had arrived at the
Luxembourg, M. Berville among others, who told us that
the Assembly had been dissolved, and that it was neces-
sary to rally it at some other point. Our first idea was to
take measures for admitting the Assembly to the Luxem-
bourg. I then proceeded to the Assembly. I passed
through the 11th Legion. I found them disheartened and
cast down by the report of the dissolution of the Assembly,
and the overthrow of the Government ; I cheered them by
protesting against the attempts that had been perpetrated.
I declared that all that had been done was null and void—
that the Assembly maintained its powers—the Government
its authority. On returning to the Luxembourg, I was met
by Quentin, ex-Receveur des Finances, who said, " I am come
to replace you." I seized him by the collar, and said,
" Whilst you are replacing me, I shall meantime find you
a place in a prison." He was armed with a brace of pistols.
He is now at Vincennes. Aer this incidnt, the 11th
Legion, full of ardour, offered to accompany mee to the Hotel
de Ville. We punished all who took a share in the attempt.
We deprived Colonel Saisset of his command; we even pu-
nished those who, without taking an active part in the at-
tempt, wavered in their duty. I may cite General Tamponre,
whom we deprived of the command of the Garde
Mobile, because he had shown himself with epaulettes in one
of the public tribunes during the invasion of the Assembly. On
the 14th, when we summoned all the authorithO•to receive
our orders, the commissary did not come; nor did we see
more of him on the 15th. He excused himself On the ground
of a sprain, and sent us an officer who told us from him
that there was at the head of the movement men of whom
he was sure, whom ho could answer for as for himself; and
that nothing would then be attempted against the Assem-
bly. I had wished to have him arrested, and his papers
seized; but my advice was not followed, and I had it recorded
in the procQs verbal. My conviction was that he was mixed
up in all this.
President--Sobrier was one of the principal authors of the
attack on the 15th of May. He had received arms from the
Prefecture of Police.
M. Arago—The Minister of War is the sole depositor of
arms. On the demand of the Minister of the Interior arms
were delivered to all the National Guards. They asked
me, in a letter signed by M. Elias Regnault, for a thou-
sand muskets immediately for the Prefecture of Police.
Colonel Bressol was charged with the distribution of the
arms. The individual who bore the letter said he was So-
brier, and that 500 were wanted for the Prefeciiire, and 400
for the ancillary establishment in the Mae Rivoli. M. Bres-
soles went to ask M. Elias Regnault if the distribution was
to be effected in this way : the answer was in the affirma-
tive. Not content with this, he wished to learn it of M.
Caussidit!re himself. M. Caussidiire told him to send him 800 to the Prefecture and 200 to the Rivoli. The Rue Rivoli
was not considered as the private house of Sobrier, but as a
succusale of the Prefecture, in ordcr to be master strategically
of that position.
President—Did the Government allow all this?
M. Arago—We knew nothing of all these disorders. M.
Courtais had apprised us of the presence of functionaries at
Sobrier's door. We had given orders to suppress them, but
we had not been obeyed; we rarely were, as one has seen on
the 15th of May, as one will see more clearly in the subse-
quent proceedings.
President—Why did you entrust the command on the
15th of May of all the troops to AI. Courtais?
ISI. Arago—l knew personally what to think of General
Courtais's capacity. You know the episode of Gen. Petit's
arrest? A commission was instituted to appreciate the
facts. Marshal Molitor was its president. Such was the
presumption of the chiefs of the National Guard, that they
refused to be presided over by one of the first generals of our
ancient armies.
President—Why did not General Fouchd act?
151. Arago—lt would seem that he obeyed RI. Courtais.
President—Two or three different elements, with diverse
views, and objects, interpellated the masses who invaded the
Assembly; the project to overthrow it, was it determined
beforehAnd ?
Atago;--I think not ; it was first of all only a question
topt,4ag' a petition to the bar; I am disposed to think that
We appetite came with eating.
a'resident—Nevertheless, a proclamation found at Sobrier's
would lead one to believe that the conflict was foreseen.
Arago—l have no knowledge about that. Sobrier was
arrested at 15, Rue Bac, and conducted to the Quai d'Orsay.
I was told that there was an idea of. carrying him to the
Prefecture. I opposed this. I made the Colonel of Dra-
goons responsible, on his head, for the orders I gave him.
The (next day the Colonel of Dragoons would not give up
Se`brier; without a permit from myself.
President—Did they wish only to intimidate the Assembly
or overthrow it?
M. Arago—l kept myself aloof from all parties I never
saw any chief of the clubs. I mistrusted that sort of men.
Some of my colleagues can tell you more on this head than
I can.

President—Were there not other Members of the Provi
sional Government in a similar embarrassing situation ag M Caussidiere?

M. Arago—lf there had been, I should not have felt more
sympathy for them than for M. Caussinii,,re.
President—Do you know anything of a speech of M. Cans-
sidiiire's pronounced in the presence of forty-eight commissa-
ries of police—a speech in which society was treated in a
most peculiar manner?
M. Arago—No ; we had no police; the few agents we had
were not very trustworthy. They were told not to compro-
mise themselves for a Government which could not last.
The Prefect of Police and the Minister of the Interior had
quite a different opinion of those agents. They be-
lieved in their faithfulness. They were mistaken. To
avoid a division we passed over these inconveniences, so as
to arrive at the Assembly without any violent conflicts.
We wished to accelerate the meeting of the National As-
sembly, and to convoke the electors immediately. The
other members of the Provisional Government pretended
that the populations were not sufficiently prepared. They
were right in saying so. They were badly prepared by the
circulars and the bad selection of commissaries. To such a
point was this carried, that they were unhappy enough to
select for :the central commissary at Havre a galley-slave.
He has since returned to his former avocation—he has assas-
sinated a person.

(To be continued.)
The examination of M. Berryer implicates M. Lalanne.
The information collected by the authorities concerning
Louis Blanc, Caussidiere, and Sobrier implicates seriously
these gentlemen.
The depositions of General Bertrand implicate M. Lara-
bit, under-secretary of the war department, for having at-
tempted to corrupt the troops.

M. Arago—M. Emile Thomas ; he intended to be a can.
didate.
President—What means had he at his disposal to produce
this Augmentation?
M. Arago—Whilst I was Minister of War, he came to me
to ask me to take 4,000 workmen off his hands, who worked
on the Champ de Mars.
President—What-steps were taken to provide against the
catastrophe of the 23d June ?
M. Arago--On the 22d June the Ateliers Nationaux sent
five delegates to M. Marie, headed by Pujol,siwho spoke in
an insolent manner. M. Marie bid him be alent, and said
to the others, "You who are real workmen (rais ouvriers)
speak to me, I am ready to hear what you have to say. You
do not answer. Are you. then, the slaves of Pujol?" They
refused to give any explanation, and went away. 1 know
that a rendezvous had been arranged for the following
morning, at six o'clock. In the night between the 22d and 23d
June, at eight in the morning, on a report of the prefecture of
police, orders were sent to General Cavaignac to have a regi-
ment of infantry and two squadrons of cavalry drawn up
on the Place de l'Estrapade at six in the morning.
That order was not executed. I may add, that on the 24th
May a decree of the Government ordered 20,000 troops of the
line to be called into Paris. The Minister of War was
charged to see that decree put into execution, with the
Garde Mobile and the Garde Republicaine; these forces
united to the artillery were to suffice. Tue demonstration
which had taken place at M. Marie's had alarmed us. Order
was given on the 22d to the Minister of the Interior and to
the prefect of police to arrest 57 delegates of the Ateliers Na-
tionaux, Pujol being one of them. We were informed that
their addresses could not be found. These very men were
all found at the barricades, of which they had the command,
I am not yet aware whether Pujol has been yet arrested.
The result was, that instead of having to attack barricades
under construction, which could have been easily carried,
we had to contend against barricades that were completed
and fortified,
A Member—At the Ministry of War, who gives the order
for the movement of troops?
M. Arago—The Minister himself; he addresses his orders
to the general of division.
President—lt has been said that on the 15th of May M.
Charras went to to the Luxembourg to ask for instructions,
and that on his way he announced that the order had been
given to cease beating the rappel.
M. Arago—l am only cognizant of this fact through my
brother, who accompanied Charras to the Luxembourg.
Charras is a most intelligent and brave officer. I took an
interest in him. He was formerly a pupil of the Polytechnic
School, and I had facilitated the commencement of his
career; he had also been recommended to me by General
Bedeau and General Lamoriciere. Perhaps he feared lest the
Members of the Assembly should be massacred. In such
dilemmas, I must avow, it is difficult how to act.
M. Arago adds—The Garde Mobile behaved admirably.
They fought with us. They were proud of their uniforms.
Nevertheless, we wished to have twenty thousand men in
Paris. Were there less? I am ignorant. Respecting the
Garde Republicaine, who would have ventured to call it out,
in presence of the insurrection, devoted as it was to M.
Caussidiere ? But we had the list of officers carefully gone
over by a severe commission. Out of ten officers, in some
cases nine were rejected.
President—How do you explain the change in the Fau-
bourg St. Antoine, where, at an earlier period, the public
mind had shown itself favourable ?
M. Arago—lt is very difficult to say. The minds of the
ouvriers of that faubourg had been tampered with. The
announcements of the clubs had much to say to it. I should
prefer seeing the worst theatres in the world to those clubs.
We turned them out of the buildisgs belonging to the State,
but we were obliged to respect the right of association.
Under the Provisional Government, the position was a diffi-
cult one. People said, "Why do you not bite?" We
might have replied, "Because we have no teeth." We were
obliged to let many things pass. They threatened to leave
us. " Go," we might have said, but it was only latterly
we could ave said so. tw as not onl in the Stret, but in the Govhernment, thatl the red flag was proposed,e on the
17th of April. I said I should prefer being cut to pieces
rather than adopt that flag. When the quarrel became
more violent, I said, " Call in your adherents, I will have
the rappel beaten, and we will decide the question with fire-
arms!' Each day we" had difficulties of every description to contend against. "Let it come to blows," were expres-
sions often repeated; and I always replied, " Well, let it
come to blows, then !" On the following day, the 19th of
April, some of the members of the Government wore a red
feather in their hats—it was the day of the grand review.
I refused to wear that emblem.
SICOND DEPOSITIOW (7TII JULY).
President--Can you give us more complete details respect-
ing a meeting which you have spoken to us about, and at
which two magistrates aro said to have been present?
M. Arago--I had learnt that meetings were very fre-
quently held at the Ministry of the Interior, between certain
magistrates and functionaries of that Ministry, and that the
most singular topics were discussed there. We wished to
have correct information on the subject. We did not succeed
in obtaining it. The late events have brought the truth to
light. M. Louis Blanc was astonished at the vivacity with
which the prosecution against him was carried on by MM.
Portalis and Landrin. He said—" But they were pile-nale
with us in our projects for overthrowing the moderate party
of the Provisional Government, and but lately the National
Assembly itself." It was to M. Duclerc that Louis
Blanc held this language. M. Duclerc mentioned it to
Gamier Pages, who repeated the words to me himself. I
waited upon M. Ledru Rollin to sound the matter to the
bottom. M. Ledru Rollin said to me, "I am the more ready
to enlighten you, as I did not approve of the measures
proposed by those gentlemen. On the 3d May especially
you and the Assembly were under discussion." M. Ledru
Rollin declared to me that it was not the clubbists who were
most active in endeavouring to overthrow a part of the Go-
vernment, and to effect the dissolution of the Assemby, but
MM. Portalis, Landrin, and Jules Favre. It was at a date
previous to the commis-ion of inquiry that M. Ledru Rollin
made these disclosures to me. He did not assist at all the
meetings (conciliabules), the last of which was held on the
3d May, the eve of the re-union of the National Assembly.
In his absence it was M. Jules Favre who did the honours.
The revolution was said to have deviated, and that it was
necessary to bring it back to its source. I have since re-
called to my memory all the events we have passed through.
The instructions which the Provisional Government confided
to those magistrates were given in a very careless manner,
without any regard to discretion. Those gentlemen initiated
the whole world in their researches--in their investigations;
the investigation relative to Blanqui especially was conducted
in that spirit. One day M. Portalis had said that it was
who gave the order to have arms conveyed to the re-
sidence of Sobrier, with whom I am not even ac-
iquaint,..d. I explained, on my first examination, the
(circumstances respecting the conveyance of those arms.
A Member—After the meeting of the Assembly were the
conciliabules continued?
111. Arago-1 am ignorant in that respect.
President—There seems to have been very little difficulty
in giving arms to whoever applied for them ?
M. Arago—They were given at the demand of the maires
addressed to the Minister of the Interior.
M. Arago adds—l wish to give an explanation concerning
M. Caussidilre
' • I wish to explain why I felt so much re-
pugnance for him. He was always boasting of having
saved us. He said—"l put a stop to those who wished to
overthrow you." I replied, "But why do you not arrest
those men who dared to conceive such projects ?" M. Caus-
sidiere would not understand me. He contented himself with
telling our enemies to remain quiet, in a tone which seemed
to imply that they were to reserve themselves for other oc-
casions.
