" The Mayor of Paris,

" A. MARRAST."
General CAVAIGNAC has given orders for the imme-
diate disarmament of the Bth, 9th, and 12th Legions of
the National Guard. The Bth comprises the Marais,
the 9th the Faubourg St. Antoine, the 12th the Fau-
bourg St. Marceau (the Garden of Plants, the Gobelins,
&e.) Tho 12th Legion had elected BARBES as its Co-
lonel, and, during the attack on the Pantheon, joined
the insurgents. lie has also ordered the disarmament
of the National Guards of Belleville and " the Courtille,"
and after the Legions were disarmed they were dis-
solved, and an order is issued to disarm every man who
had not been fighting against the insurgents. General
Cavaignac will follow up this course until he has placed
Paris in perfect safety.
Orders have been given to disarm the inhabitants of
Montmartre, and to effect another search in the quarries.
A battalion of National Guards of every legion of Paris
was to proceed on the expedition.
On Wednesday twenty-six carriages of all kinds were
sent from the interior of the capital to Vincennes, con-
taining about 30,000 muskets taken from the insurgents.
The escort, composed of dragoons and cuirassiers,
reached from the bridge of the Tuileries to Pont Neuf.
Amongst the arms are a number of air-guns, which, it
is supposed, were used for assassination from windows.
Gun-cotton was found in immense quantities.
The judicial inquiry, relative to the individuals incar-
cerated during the insurrection, is continued. The
evidence already obtained shows that, on the morning of
the 23d, chests of arms and ammunition were sent to a
waggon-office at La Villette, and that 1,500 guns were
distributed to the insurgents.
It has been ascertained that active preparations were
made by all the leaders for four days before the out-
break; places were assigned at which the various batta-
lions were to assemble, depots of arms and ammunition
were regularly provided, posts were assigned to the
several commanders, and councils of war were held daily.
Among the chiefs were the commanders arid brigadiers
of :the Atelier Nationaux, the officers of the late Re-
publican Guard, whose character and antecedents caused
them to be rejected on its reorganization, the privates
who had been expelled from this guard, the late guard
of the mountaineers, some few deserters and officers of
the Garde Mobile, the heads of the most violent clubs,
the editors of the most furious journals, and those of
the liberated convicts who had exhibited most capacity.
The insurgents must have had upwards of 40,000
men under arms. But this was not all, they were aided
by the treachery of some of the subordinate persons
employed by the Executive Government.
One of the National Guards who was at the attack on
the Clos St. Lazare kept one of the cartridges which had
been served out to them. It was found to contain saw-
dust instead of powder. This cartridge is now in the
hands of the officers who commanded. The paper of
which it is made is the same as that used by the Govern-
ment for making their cartridges.
M. LALANNE, who was appointed as the successor to
M. EMILE THOMAS as director of the Ateliers Nation-
aux, has been arrested on a charge of having sent
money to the men engaged in the insurrection in the
Rue St. Antoine.
The friend and associate of SOBRIERhas been arrested.
On him were found orders to the emissaries of the in-
sinbdyicahtiisnglofty style of speaking,
observables in-
surrection, r recti o ainndthpeapcleurbs
aides and the names of the chiefs.theThis n man,sf t hwho b rwasri-
now appears much disconcerted. When interrogated
he shed tears.

Among the chiefs of the insurrection who have been
arrested are NAPOLEON LEBON and KERSAUSIE.
M. VATRIN, Lieutenant-Colonel of the 6th Legion,
has been arrested, by order of General LAMORICIERE.
After having been admitted to the conference on the
plan of the attack, be was taken in the ranks of the
insurgents.
The military committee at the Palace of the Tuileries
has already examined upwards of 300 prisoners; almost
all of them were in possession of pieces of gold; some
of them had even five louis. "We saw," says the
" a box full of money, which had been taken
from the insurgents." Several of the prisoners, when
asked by the judges why they did not surrender before,
replied, "We had to earn the money which had been
given to us." None of them have as yet betrayed the
names of their instigators.
On one of the insurgents wAs found the following
draft of a decree written in pencil:—Art. 1. All the
citizens who pay more than 200 f. in taxes are deprived
of their civil and political rights fur 10 years. Art. 2.
All the property, both real and personal, belonging to
citizens who have exercised public functions of any na-
ture since 1815, is confiscated. Art. 3. The constitution
of France is that of 1793. Art. 4. The army is dis-
banded.

The Journal du Havre says—"lt appears certain that
the banquet at 5 sous was nothing less than one vast
conspiracy, in which all the guests invited—and they
would have been very numerous—were to be massacred
under the pretext of fraternization; alt the arms which
