fetched in the Commissary of Police. Several &man-
ieres, especially of the 12th Legion, have h-en taken
into custody ; and many National Guards who fought
with the insurgents on Friday and Saturday, and who
on Sunday presented themselves in their legions, in
order to turn off suspicion or surprise secrets, have
also been arrested. _ _

Their opposition, however, was fruitless, and the
National Guards from all parts of France have
marched to support the cause of order in the capital.
The city of Troyes not only sent its National Guard
to Paris for the maintenance of order and the defence

of the Republic, but has likewise deputed a delegate
with several boats laden with 60,000 pounds of
bread, 60,000 pounds of ham, ten pieces of wine, and
other provisions for supplying the vast accumulation
of National Guards and troops in the capital. All
these have been landed at the Hotel de Ville, and dis-
tributed among the different corps bivouacked in the
open places.
An order of General LAMORTCIERE, as Minister of
War, which was placarded on Friday morning in the
12th arrondissement, sets forth that if by eight
o'clock in the evening the inhabitants of the arron-
dissement should not have given up their arms at the
place indicated, they should, on arms being found in
their houses, be punished with all the severity of
the laws.

More than 100,000 muskets have already been
returned to the arsenals of the State. In some
quarters several persons gave up their muskets and
swords with great alacrity, but searches having been
made in their houses, arms and ammunition were
found secreted.

On Friday there were brought to the Prefecture
of Police several large-sized cast• iron mortars, with
their pestles, which had been used in the clandestine
manufacture of gunpowder. It was ascertained that
they were not, as might have been naturally sup-
posed, made for pounding drugs, and been purchased
or carried off by the insurgents, 'but were expressly
cast and bored for the fabrication of gunpowder.
Among them, in fact, were some the boring of which
was not quite perfected.
On Thursday a National Guard was assassinated in
the Rue Blanche, by a ball fired from a window.
The house being entered by an armed force, the mur-
derer was arrested, and, it is said, immediately shot.
The investigation into the insurrection and mas-
sacre at the barrier of Fontainebleau, has led to the
seizure of arms and articles belonging to the victims.
Among the insurgents confined in the fort of Ivry is
one in whose possession the sword of General BREA
was found, and another had the sword of the aide-
de-camp. One of the epaulettes of the latter was
found on a third prisoner, and it is believed that the
trace of the man what hasthe other epaulette has been
discovered.
The following description of the appearance and
demeanour of the prisoners awaiting their trial is
from the Constitutionnel.
"We have visited the insurgents made prisoners
during the journees of June, who are incarcerated in the
Conciergerie. It is with difficulty that these individuals,
1,600 in number, have found places in the vast prison,
and they crowd all the yards. The former prisoners
have been completely separated from the new corners.
In general the attitude of these men, who have taken
part more or less actively in the terrible
scenes of which Paris has been thei theatre, is
that of disquietude and dissimulation. One would
seek in vain in the features of the greater number the
savage excitement displayed during the struggle of the
four days. Their physiognomies bear so strangely the
marks of fatigue and discouragement, that it is evident
they are no longer under the empire of that feverish
agitation springing from blind passion. The sentiment
of their defeat may be read on their faces, and they are
visibly dominated by the idea of the grave responsibility
which they have incurred. Among them, however, are
men who escape the common law of humanity. Some
formed for action, and old conspirators, affect a degree of
confidence and firmness. They endeavour to assume a
calm and stoical bearing, and exercise over their compa-
nions the influence which audacity and energy invari-
ably exert :under similar circumstances. Others, who
are the true soldiers of emeutes, the necessary agents of
all insurrections, past and future, are without care
or disquietude. The made barricades and fought
because they are possessed of the instinct of tumult
and the love of disorder. If they had conquered, they
would the next day have recommenced the struggle
against their comrades themselves, and being conquered
they resign themselves with the fatalism of indifference.
rile costume, age, and social condition of the insurgents
present the most varied contrast. Near the blouse of
the workmen, is the uniform of the Republican Guard ;
near the coat of the bourgeois the uniform of the
Gardine de Paris ; and there are soldiers of the line
and officers of the National Guard by the side of masons
and locksmith. The prisoners devote almost all
their leisure to conversation and slumber, and
some try to amuse themselves by playing at different
games."
The Messager says:— " Nearly all the prisoners
made among the insurgents who have been interro-
gated up to the present time have adopted the same
system of defence. They declare that they were
forced to assist in making barricades, and to take
part in the insurrection, under a threat of death in
the event of refusal." Some of them have, it is said,
made revelations to the Committee of such a nature
that there is every probability that the real authors
of the insurrection will be brought to justice.
On Monday evening a boy of between fourteen and
fifteen, who was in custody at the Prefecture of
Police, declared that a sum of 11,000 f. in gold, which
was found in his possession, had been given to him
by a combatant at the moment at which a company
of the 45th Regiment entered a barricade at which
he was. The origin of this sum has since been
ascertained, and the individual who gave it has been
pointed out by the boy.
The Moniteur publishes a table of the number of
wounded received into the several hospitals from the
23d to the 28th ult., amounting to 1,619, besides 162
who died before they arrived. of the wounded in
the evening of the 29th, 157 had been discharged or
removed by their friends : 195 had died; leaving
1,267 still under treatment. in the ambulances
(field hospitals), there were, in the evening of the
29th, 364 wounded under cure. Of the wounded
taken into the hospitals, 773 were civilians, includ-
ing National Guards 813 of the troops, Gerdes
Mobiles, and Gerdes Republicaines, and 33 women.
Of the 162 carried dead to the hospitals, 2 were
women.
" It has been ascertained," says the Union, " that,
out of 800 wounded insurgents taken into one hos-
pital alone, 400 were liberated convicts."
The insurgents continue to have recourse to the
odious system of assassination and poisoning. Four
sentinels were assassinated on Saturday night, and an
attempt was made to murder all the wounded in the
hospital of St. Louis by sending in for their use a
quantity of poisoned lint. General CITANGARNIER,
the new Commander-in-Chief of the National Guards,
has taken up his residence at the Tuileries.
The funeral service of General NEGRIER was per-
formed on Saturday morning in the church of St.
Gervais. General PERROT and several other general
officers, and a number of members of the National
Assembly, were:present. Detachments of the Na-
tional Guards both of Paris and the departments, of
the Line, and the Garde Mobile, escorted the body to
the terminus of the Northern Railway, whence it will
be taken to Lille.
A deplorable accident has happened to M. LEMAN•
SOIS DUFRE, the Secretary-General to the Questors
of the Assembly. He was passing the Place de la
Concorde at half-past eleven o'clock on Friday night
when he was challenged by a sentinel. He ap-
proached to show him his medal. The sentinel think.
ing be was intending to attack him fired and wounded
M. LEMANSOIS in the groin.
We read in the Courrier de Lyon of Wednesday :
"At the moment of writing this the rappel is beating in
several quarters of Lyons and the Brotteaux. It is
again affirmed that General GxMEAU is making prepara-
tions for retaking the cannon carried away from the
barracks of the Bernardines by the Voraces soon after
the Revolution of February. Several corps hare arrived
to reinforce the garrison of our city, and we are assured
that 30,000 men are in the environs, and can be brought
into Lyons in four hours." In a postscript this
journal states that the cannon had., been given up. This
statement is confirmed by the Slut Public. The for-
midable attitude of the troope`of the line and the
National Guard had terrified the Voraces.
