Paris was quite quiet on Saturday night, and
yesterday tranquillity remained undisturbed, al-
though an address was posted on the walls of Paris
on Sunday morning, calling on the operatives em-
ployed in the national workshops to proceed at two
o'clock on that day to sign a petition to the Execu-
tive Government, praying that M EMILE THOMAS
be not removed from their direction without speci•
flying the cause ; and that if he has been accused of
any crime he should be brought to trial and convicted
before he be deemed guilty.

M. MioNET, the historian, has been di-missed from
the office he held in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs,

M. TEELAT, the Minister of Public Works, has
issued the following proclamation :

" NOTICE TO THE WORKMEN OF TIIE ATELIERS
NATIoNAUX.

" The Government is occupied in preparing for the
re-or4uniz Ltion of the national workshops measures
which have become absolutely nt cessury. Errors which
are prejudicial to the interests of the state, as to those
of the true labourers, were committed in the midst of
the hurry with which the first brigades were obliged
to be formed. The consequence was that many
possessed of private resources were admitted to the
benefits of the inscription, while others caused
themselves to be inscribed several times under
false names, and thus succeeded in obtaining the
wages of several. The place due to deserving
workmen has thus been frequently occupied
without any real right, and even by trauctulent means.
It is to be to that expenses abued in this manner
are too heavy to permit the state to continue, as she hap,
the firm intention to assure work to the labouring popu-
lation. Under .such circumstances It becomes necessary
to proceed to a new cur. lment. Fur from throwing any'
obstacle in the way of such a measure, all true workmen
should lend it their support, for it is is iu,t one, and be
cause, far from attacking any of their rights or their
position, it is more especially for their own interest. The
Government will not have appealed in vai❑ to their senti-
ments of honour and of loyalty. It counts upon them,
sty they may rely upon it.
(Signed) " TIIELAT,
The Minister of Public Works."

Prince Louis NAPOLEON has addressed a letter to
the National Assembly, in which he states that hay-
ing heard that there was a proposition- made in the
Committees of the Assembly, that he of all Ihe
Bonaparte family should be banished from France.
he thinks it necessary to declare, that although he put
forward preten4ons of a different kind as as
Louis PHILIPPE was upon the throne, now that the
Republic is established, all he a,ks are his rights as a
simple citizen.

M. Acrimu FouLD,: the bank,rl and M. }hr..
POLITE PASSY, once a Minister under Louts Pitr-
LIPPE, have decla-ed themselves as candidates for the
representation of Paris. Both candidates may be con-
sidered as reactionists. They have not the decent hypo-
crisy even to profess allegiance to the Republic, but in
their addresses preserve a silence, which is in such a
case more eloquent than words. The reactionnaires
are hi coming every day more and more bold, and it
is from them rather than from the communists that
danger is now to be apprehended.
The National Assembly met on Saturday, at half-past
twelve.

The report of the Committee on M. Billault's propo-
sition to prevent tumultuous assemblage within a dis-
tance of 1,200 metres of the National Assetnbly was
presented. It recommends the adoption of the measure.
The Bill relative to the establishment of Councils of
Prod 'Hommes throughout the whole extent of the Re-
public, and which had been discussed the preceding day,
was adopted without a dissentient voice.

M. Leon Faucher developed his proposition, de-
manding that a credit of ten millions should be
opened for the purpose of executing new earthworks
on seven,' railway lines. The Honourable Member
dwelt on the immense sums at present paid in Paris
for doing absolutely nothing, at an expente of not
doss than seventy -two millions a year, and argued that
to keep a vast nuint.er of men thus collected together,
without any real employ ment, was most dangerous to
the public peace at present, and was sure to produce
hereafter the most disastrcus effects on the morals and
industrious habits of the population. Men supported
thus in idleness, were, he said, peculiarly open to invi-
tatioes to disorder from persons wishing► to produce
anarchy in the country; and, in addition, a continuance
in such a condition would soon snap the bonds which
bound man to his fn:nilt• and to the state. To remove
these men to the various railways v‘ hich required works
to be expeuttql, would he serviceable to the state, at the
same time that it would tend to raise the morale of the
men employed.—Ordered to be taken into consideration
and referred to the standing Committet s on labour
public works, and finance. _

•
M. Montreuil developed his proposition, demanding
300 millions, to be applied at the rate of 30 millions a
year, to clearing waste lands in Algeria. The mode of
raising this um, the Hon. Member said, would be by a
1 'an, which the unanimous joy manifested in France at
the establishment of the Republic would render it an
easy matter to raise. lie concluded by proposing to
refer the propoaition to the Committee on labour, agri-
culture, and finance.

M. Beaumont (de la Somme) considered that, how-
ever useful might be the views of the Hon. Deputy,
they were nut capable of being carried into executien at.
present. The Government was, no doubt, well en ugh
inclined to encourage every plan likely to give etnplo)-
tnent to the working classes. but the wants of the
mother-coun ry claimed its attention first, and when
these had been sAisfied something could be done fur
Algeria. But, independently of the other rea.on,
which might be brought forward against the propcee-
thin, the tt.ct of 300 millions being demanded would he
quite sufficient to prevent the vropeitien being enter-
tained. He thought the mutter ought to be referred to
the Mteisttit of War.
M. Flocee, Minister of Commerce and Agriculture,
took that opportunity of informing the Assembly that the
department over which he presided had been busily en-
gaged in studying the question of reclaiming waste land=
in France, anti in a few days a measure should be pre-
sented on that subject. With respect to the proposition
now before the House, he had no opposition to make to
its being referrtd to the Committee on Agriculture.
General Cavaignac, Minister of War, thought it would
be as well to give the population of Algeria a mark of
the interest which the Assembly took in the welfare of
the colony. He, therefore, should support the sugges-
tion to have the matter also referred to the Committee
on War: he thought it would be better to substitute that
on Algeria.
The Assembly decided that the proposition should be
taken into consideration, and that it should be referred
to the Committees on Agriculture, Finance, and Algeria.
General Clement Thomas developed his proposition
tending to except from the law interdicting in the army
any person to receive at the same time a pension and
pay for active service. The majors, adjutant-injors,
drum-majors, and drummers of the National Guard
were in general old officers and soldiers on half-pay,
who had been appointed to their new situations, from
being the best able to fulfil the duties thereof from their
having had the necessary experience. The emoluments
were very moderate, and he considered that no objection
could well be made to his demand.—Ordered to be taken
iuto consideration and referred to the Committee on the
Interior.

M. Pietry presented a proposition, declaring that the
Bill of 1832, banishing the Bonaparte family from the
soil of France should be abrogated.—(Hear, hear.) The
proposition was signed by a great number of members.
—To be developed on a future day.
M. Koenig presented a proposition for an improved
manner of admitting substitutes in the army.—To be
developed on some future day.
Colonel Roy brought forward a proposition tending to
replace the effigy of Napoleon on the cross of the Lg.gion
'it flon,ur, and LI remove from it the crown, from which
at present it is suspended.—Ordered to be developed on
Monday.
M. Xavier Durrieu wished to have a day appointed
on which explanations could be demanded from the
Minister or Foreign Atlarp, relative to the late events in
Naples. France was bound to second the movement in
that country, and the Assembly no doubt would be
anxious to learn how far that had been done. He should
name Monday fer the purpose.
M. J. Favre had to reply for the Honourable Minister
alluded to, who was absent, that he was quite ready to
re ply on any day that might be fixed, but he had to ask
that the day might be as distant am c,envenient, in order
that precise information might have b.en received on the
matter. He should propose Wednesday next.

This was tweed to.
Blavoyer stated, the Committee on the regulations
having e.•n applied to, to consider the manner in which
the communications should take place between the
committees sod the various ministerial departments,
had decided that they sht9uld be direct between the pre-
sidents er secretaries of the ciarunittee and ministers
themselveh, and nut their chef:-de•cabinet or clerks.
Adopted.
M. Duclerc (Minister of Finance) proposed the draft
of a decree, which he desired to be examined d'urgence,
declaring ttiat the Govetnment, wishing to recompense
the services of such persons as had, under the former
Government, suffered imprisoldront fur their political
opinions, had oppointed them to situations in the vari-
ous services t but as these persons had been for the most
i part ruined n their. wordly prospects, and were quite
unprovided with funds to meet the expense of proceed-
ing to several places of destination, and there installing
themselves, the Government proposed that a credit of
