LATEST FROM PARIS.

The following proclamation has been issued by
the Provisional Government :

" PROCLAMATION OF THE PROVISIONAL

GOVERNMENT.

" TO THE FRENCH PEOPLE,
" A retrograde Government has been overturned
by the heroism of the people of Paris.

_
"The Government has fled, leaving behind it traces
of blood, which will for ever forbid its return.

" The blood of the people has flowed, as in July ;
but, happily, it has not been shed in vain. It has
secured a national and popular Government in accord-
ance with the rights, the progress, and the will of this
great and generous people.
"A Provisional Government, at the call of the
people and some Deputies in the sitting of the 24th
of February, is for the moment invested with the
care of organizing and securing the national victory.
It is composed of MM. DUPONT DE L'EURE, LAMAR.*
TINE, CREMIRUX, ARAGO, LEDRII-ROLLIN, and
GARNIER PAGES. The Secretaries to this Govern-
ment are MM. ARMAND, .MARRAST, LOUIS BLANC,
and FERDINAND FLOCON.
" These citizens have not hesitated for an instant to
accept the patriotic mission which has been imposed
upon them by the urgency of the occasion.

" Frenchmen, give to the world the example
Paris has given to France. Prepare yourselves,
by order and confidence in yourselves, for the in-
stitutions which are about to be given you.

" The Provisional Government desires a republic,
pending the ratification of the French people, wbo
are to be immediately consulted.
" Neither the people of Paris, nor the Provisional
Government, desire to substitute their opinion for the
opinions of the citizens at large, upon the definite
form of Government, which the national sovereignty
shall proclaim.
L'unite de la nation, formed henceforth of all classes
of the people which compose it.
" The Government of the nation by itself.
" Liberty, equality, and fraternity for its prin
ciples.
" The people to devise and maintain order.
" Such is the Democratic Government which
France owes to herself, and which our efforts will
assure to her.
" Such are the first acts of the Provisional Go•
vernment.
