THE SUN, LONDON, TUESDAY EVENING, JUNE 27, 1848.

hands of the National Guard, it becomes a matter of
profound importance to discover, if possible, the
origin of the late tremendous outbreak. To ourselves
the whole secret is as apparent as the daylight. We
can perceive under the mask :of a movement among
the ouvriers; the last and most desperate struggle
of the legitimist ambition. Can any sane man deny
a fact so glaringly conspicuous ? Is it not enough
that most of the prisoners were found to be reeling
with drunkenness, and that their pockets in almost
every instance were stuffed with gold and silver
coins ? Is it not sufficiently significant, that coinci-
dence, that in the very whirlpool of the civil battle
in Paris, a cabriolet was seized at the corner of one of
the streets laden with money—the driver refusing to
reveal the ;place of its destination ? Is it not
conclusive that the minions of the dead system
of monarchial government were implicated
in the rebellion of the working people of
Paris, or that circumstance,`; that the Count
DE NARBONNE was detected distributing cash to the
mob ? Are not these things enough to show that the
wretched labourers of the French capital have sold
themselves in the despair of their destitution—that
they have sold themselves for foreign gold and for
potations of wine and brandy ? Now whence has
this splendid bribery come, whose mind has

presided over the plans of the late civic campaign,
whose energies have afforded the inspiration to the
whole storm of the insurrection ? Corruption of
such a munificent character could not possibly come
from impoverished coffers. Plans of such consum-
mate ingenuity could not result from accident, of
from the calculations of minds other than those of men
tutored in the art of war and guided by military
experience. An ambition less than that of the most en-
terprising adventurer could not have excited a tumult
so vast and appalling. It must, therefore, be quite
manifest that the threads of a daring and elaborate
intrigue are only traceable to the hands of a great party
—a great faction, we may call it—a faction driven
into terrible difficulties and compelled by the alternative
either of perishing altogether from the face of the

--
political world, or of struggling to re•assume authority
by a grand and awful explosion of force like that
which has just shaken the great city of Paris to its
foundations.

All things considered, therefore, it is manifest that
the Parisians have been victimized by a very despe-
rate and certainly a very cruel and unprincipled
faction. It is equally clear that that faction is none
other than the faction of the Legitimists. So think
the National Guard—witness it, the execrations cast
upon M. Louis BLANC by them on Sunday, when he
was recognized by them in the streets, and obliged to
escape at full gallop in a fiacre to save himself from
instant death. So think also the National Assembly
—witness it, the arrest of M. EMILE DE GIRARDIN,
and the suppression of the Presse. Many people,
either ignorant or forgetful of the past, may be asto-
nished at this simultaneous mention of M. Louis
BLANC and of M. EMILE DE GIRARDIN, of
the Communist and the Royalist, of the
ex-Member of the Provisional Government and
of the man whose veins are contaminated by some
drops of the blood of the Orleans dynasty. But
strange it certainly is not to find in the nephew of
Pozzo DI BoaGo, in the advocate of an Utopian
Centralization, in the Historian of Ten Years, in the
sophist whose hand has penned the " Organization of
Labour," and whose schemings have conduced to the
Dis-organization of the Republic—it is not strange,
we maintain, to find a political charlatan like
M. Louis BLANC acting covertly, but ear-
nestly, with the promoters of a Royalist
insurrection. Against such traitors the Repub-
lic should now be more than ever vigilant, and
such vigilance can, at this moment, be carried out
with greater deliberation now that the atmosphere of
Paris has been cleared by a thunder-storm of cannon.

There is no disguising the question, the great
point which those who call themselves the advocates
of the West India interest insist upon is, that so far
as these colonies are concerned, the principle of free
trade should be indefinitely suspended, if not alto-
gether abandoned. That that which was most justly
refused to British agriculturists should be conceded. to
West Indian planters, and that a different rule should
be established for the production of the corn of the
tropics " and of the temperate zones"—of sugar and
of wheat. The only possible justification for the Go-
vernment measure is, that it carries out the spirit of
the Act of 1846, and only affords reasonable time to
the parties interested for the transition from an
artificial to a natural state—from a system
of protection to one of free and unrestricted
competition. If the lands are of such inferior qua-
lity, that the article cannot be produced unless a per-
manent protection is maintained, the sooner they are
applied to other purposes the better. The industrious
and overtoiled artizan cannot be expected to contri-
bute large sums annually, from his hardly earned
wages, for the purpose of keeping the poorer soils in
cultivation, of maintaining the black labourers in
comparative idleness, or of sustaining a wasteful and
improvident management. The Hon. Member for
Bristol on Friday, after quoting from the evidence of
Mr. OVERMAN, that "in Porto Rico, although they
had only wind and water•mills, with the disadvan-
tage of bad machinery, they were enabled, by the
fertility of the soil, to grow sugar at 3s. or 3s. 6d.,"
triumphantly asked, " How then could the West
Indians compete with such states ?" The co-
lonists themselves adopted a similar argument
even while they were permitted to obtain an
abundant supply of slave labour. In the report drawn
up in 1804 by the Committee of the House of As
sembly of Jamaica, quoted by Mr. HAWES in his power.
ful argument, it is stated that " although an abo

tion of the slave trade be an effectual, it is not the
sole means by which the West India Islands may
be ruined. The same object may be obtained as
completely, although with somewhat less rapidity, by
encouraging the cultivation of sugar in the East In-
dies, where the fertility of the soil, the facility of irri-
gation, the ease with which commodities are trans-
ported by means of an extensive inland navigation,
the abundance of provisions, the cheapness of labour,
and the structure of society, give advantages which
nature has denied to these islands, and where
the cultivator is exempt from restrictions which
bear heaviest on our agriculture, and will operate as
a positive and immense bounty to our rivals." Such
have been the statements from time to time put for-
ward, even when an absolute monopoly was en
the yeareing lBB
jtoyed, and foreign sugars were practically prohibited

we must restrict ourselves to forced productions of
poor and impoverished lands, and l d
exc u e the growth
of other climes, where nature as h •
been more bounti-
ful ? As well might it be said, that we should pro-
hibit the wines of France and Spain, and content
ourselves with the juice of grapes grown in English
hothouses, or that we should strive to enhance
the price of wheat to such an
amount that
mountain lands, which are now Only valuable as
sheep-walks, might be fully cropped. The supposition
is too absurd. It would not, indeed, be sufficient, if
we were to impose a heavy duty on foreign sugars,
for, as some of the colonies are infinitely more fertile
than others, and other British settlements possess

even superior advantages, a protection should be
afforded to the produce of the poorer lands, or we
should still continually hear of the "distress of the
West Indian colonies," and be subjected to increasing
importunities for relief, which could not be afforded
without the greatest injustice to our own countrymen,

and the planters would still follow the course recom-
mended by a place-hunting Irish barrister of former

days, viz., "to take all they could get and keep
grumbling."

The other points to which we have alluded are
within the power of the planters, and they must be
remedied to the utmost extent before they can justly
demand any assistance at our hands. All the evi-
dence goes to prove that a most wasteful and extra-

vagant expenditure is still practised on the several

estates ; improvements that would considerably faci-
litate the process of manufacture have been ne-
glected ; the old system has still been pursued, and
a most culpable disregard for every amelioration
manifested; while the labourers will scarcely con
descend to work a few days in the week, certainly
not half the number of hours that the English opera-
tive, who is to be taxed for the continu-
ance of the system, is compelled to toil for
the support of his family. So long as these sugars
must be taken at any price, so long as all the estates ,

that have ever been brought into cultivation must be
maintained in working condition, whatever might be
their management or their cost, these things will go
on. But, it is only a fair and open competition that
will produce beneficial alterations. If we bad endea-
voured to protect manufacturers, so as to enable them
to obtain remunerating prices for calicoes made ac-
cording to the old system, England would not now
be an exporting country. When improvements are
introduced the old machinery is cast aside. The
manufacturer feels that it is useless for him
to endeavour to compete with those possess-
ing superior means of production. Does he
then clamour for assistance from the Legisla-
ture ? Certainly not. He relies on his own
energies—he applies a fitting remedy to every defect.
The most recently invented machinery is obtained at
any cost; or else he abandons the manufacture which,
without it, can no longer be expected to yield a profit.
He does not pay extravagant wages for a few hours'
labour ; if it cannot be obtained at a reasonable cost,
he either closes his factory, or works half time, and
those who endeavour to extort more than he
can afford to pay, are speedily and effectually
brought to their senses. If they cannot support
themselves by working half time, they must
gradually increase their exertions until their
time is fully occupied. The planters and the
emancipated blacks must pursue a similar course.
The former must introduce every improvement and
encourage their resources to the utmost extent, so as
to obtain the greatest amount of produce at the
cheapest rate. The latter must offer "a fair day's
work for a fair day's wages ;" and until they do so
they have no right to demand that we should tax our-
selves for their benefit. If any restrictions operate
injuriously, and prevent the former from obtaining
an adequate supply of labour, those restrictions
should be removed. They should obtain "a clear
stage," but they should certainly ask for "no favour."

SUPPRESSION

Or THE

these streets were freed, and that a representative of
the Ardennes, M. PAYEE, whose house had been in-
vaded by the insurgents, could get out of his house
and come to the Assembly.
Among other horrible scenes M. PAYEE witnessed
during the twelve hours he was detained at home,
he related facts which prove that a great number of
the insurgents were unfortunate men who had been
led astray, and several had money in their pockets,
and excited the others to fight by all kinds of evil re-
ports. Many of them were poor workmen, driven to
despair by that misery which they had endured for
four months, and who replied to those who asked
them what they were fighting for, "it is better to be
killed with a bullet than to starve to death !" None
of them, when drink was presented to them, would
accept wine without water, and one of them, having
killed a Mobile who had wounded his hand, began to
cry like a child.
Some of the leaders were constantly endeavouring
to excite them by distributing to them strong liquors,
and repeating the most odious stories. At one time
they said the 1 Ith Legion had just massacred a great
number of them ; at another, that 600 workmen had
been sent from the Ateliers Nationaux to go and work
at Fontainbleau, and that they had been received on
their arrival by the mire, who told them they would
not employ such canaille.
M. PAYEE remarked that the leaders never exposed
themselves, and disappeared at the least danger.
The following facts prove that it was rather a re-
actionary than a revolutionary movement on the part
of the chiefs of-those engaged in it.
Among the insurgents killed are several liberated
convicts—all well supplied with ammunition.
One of the prisoners taken from the insurgents,
being asked what their object was in taking up arms
against their countrymen and brothers, exclaimed,
" What would you have ? It is the war of those who
have not, against those who have !" Others have ac-
knowledged that drink was supplied to them, and
that they were deluded by perfidious persuasions.
Their pockets filled with gold proved that they were
hired by others, but they were ashamed to acknow-
ledge this.

At the corner of the Rue Chaussee d'Antin a car-
riage was stopped, in which a corpulent lady was
found. On searching, her p erson was found to be
swelled out with cartridges.

A cab filled with money was seized about one at
the courts of the Rue des Capucines. The person
who was in it, as well as the coachman, were arrested.
It was impossible to obtain from them the least infor-
mation as to the destination of this money.
The women play a great part in the insurrection,
many have been arrested, on whom have been found
cartouches, which they carried to the insurgents;
one had hid them in her basket covered with meat,
which she carried on her head, another in her
milk can, and another had sewn them inside her
clothes.

It is clear that the workmen of the Ateliers Nw

tionaux could not have provided this gold, this ammu-
nition, and this food; neither could they have orga-
nized this insurrection after so strategical a fashion.
Who then are the real authors of the insurrection
Who found the gold ?

The following may, perhaps, throw some light on
:he subject :

It appears certain that Count DE NARBONNE,
formerly aide-de-camp to CHARLES X., and his,
servant, who were arrested behind a barricade in the
act of distributing money to the revolters, had both
been shot in the gardens of the Luxembourg by the
National Guards.

How was the communication opened between the
Communists and the Legitimatists ? We know not
for a certainty, but we do know that Louis Marto is
the nephew of the celebrated Pomo Dißonoo, one of the
founders of the Holy Alliance, who for fifty years
was intriguing to forward the views of Russia in
every part of Europe, and that he himself was ori-
ginally a Legitimatist. It is probable, however, that
the National Assembly are ere this in possession of
some information on this subject, as several arrests
have been made, among others M. EMILE DE GIRAR.•
DIN, proprietor and editor of the "'rend, who has
been talaen to the Prefecture of Police. Seals
have been put on the offices, and the presses, &c.,
seized. M. CLev.Er. D'Olsr, a banker of the Rue
Hauteville, accused of distributing money to the
insurgents, was arrested yesterday and taken to
prison.

Our readers will recollect that we some time since
stated that negotiations had been going on between
the partizans of the elder and of the Orleans branch
of the house of Bourbon for an amalgamation of their
interests, and a joint restoration ; probably some such
arrangement has taken place. The losses of the de-
fenders of the cause of order have been most severe.
Upwards of 15,000 of the troops, the National
Guard, and of the Garde Mobile, have been killed or
wounded. Among the killed is General NEQUIN, the
hero of Constantine and one of the Questors of the
Assembly. He fell at the top of a barricade which
he had just taken ; he was struck by numerous balls.
General DUVIVIER has been severely wounded. The
following decrees have been issued by General
CAVAIG NA.O

It is said that the Archbishop of PARIS is mortally
wounded.
M. LARABET and three Members of the Assembly,
who had been taken by the insurgents, have been
liberated. They may consider themselves fortunate,
as the following narative will show.
On Saturday, at about eight o'clock in the morn-
ing, five companies of the 18th Light Infantry, com-
manded by M. TOMBEUR, were stationed on the Place
des Vosges, formerly the Place Royale ; their ammu-
nition was nearly exhausted, and a very considerable
band of the insurgents, pushing before them the
mayor of the Bth arrondissement, advanced towards
the soldiers, crying "Do not fire, do not fire." The
detachment requested to be allowed to withdraw
with their arms. The insurgents consented; but at
the same moment another band of from 500 to 600
men coming up, refused to allow them to depart ;
but shortly after decided that the soldiers should
be set at liberty, but that the officers should
be all shot on the spot. Twice, despite the
resistance of the chief of the insurgents, who had
given his word, the officers were compelled to kneel
down, and, finally, were indebted for their lives to
the intervention of some municipal guards who were
among the rioters. " We have also served," cried
these men, " and will not allow soldiers to be shot
after we have promised to set them at liberty." As
these words failed in persuading the most violent
of the former, municipal guards placed themselves be-
fore the officer from whom we had these particulars,
succeeded in enabling him to effect his escape, and
then conducted him to a house, where clothes were
given to him in exchange for his uniform. The un-
fortunate officer left PL.ris, crossed La Chapelle and
La Villette, where he was able to judge the resources
and extent of the insurrection, and returned yester•
day morning to Paris, where he was arrested by a
commissaire de police, who, doubting the veracity of
his story, detained him for several hours, and allowed
him to depart, only after having convinced himself
that the officer communicated to him details of the
most exact nature. Such is the recital given before
us by this officer to M. Dolman., a representative.
He added,
that he had been unable to obtain any
intelligence of his regiment ; that he was entirely
ignorant of the fate of his fellow-soldiers, and had
hitherto been unable to find any trace of them. He
was then repairing to the Ministry of War.
Of all the battalions, the 13th battalion of the

Garde Mobile has shown the most devoted courage
against the enemies of the Republic.
Young MARTIN HYACINTHE, only eighteen years
of age, a simple Garde Mobile, valiantly rushed on
a formidable barrier of the Faubourg du' Temple, in
the face of a shower of balls. He took the flag
which surmounted it, and would not part with it
even is fighting. When the battalion returned to
the head-quarters of General CAVAIGNAC the young
soldier was presented to him, to whom he delivered
the flag. General CAVAIGNAC, taking off his cross,
immediately placed it on the breast of the gallant
youth, amidst the applause of the persons assembled.
It is impossible to ascertain the loss sustained by
the insurgents. It appears that one of the chief de-
fenders of the Barriere Rehouart was a man named
LAROQUE, the editor of the Pere Duchesne. He was
killed.

M. Louis BLANC has made his appearance at last.
About half-past seven in the evening of Sunday
LOUIS BLANC was passing along the Boulevards on
foot between two representatives. At the corner of
the rue Richelieu he was recognised by the picquets
of National Guards who occupied that post. Hostile
cries were soon uttered against him, for nothing hut
curses are now heard against him, as being—although,
perhaps, involuntary—the author of the unhappy
occurrences which are now devastating the capital.
But for the intervention of some National Guards,
who made their comrades understand that the mem-
bers of the Assembly were inviolable, M. Louis
BLANC would have been submitted to punishment on
the spot. A carriage was obtained, and after he had
mounted the horse was flogged into a gallop to carry
M. Louis BLANc from the imprecations and ven-
geance of the bystanders.
The Archbishop of Psais has died of his wounds.
That excellent prelate, accompanied by four of his
grand vicars, went on Sunday of his own accord to
General CAVA.IGNAC, at the Palais Bourbon, where
he has established his head-quarters. He offered
himself to go among the insurgents, as the bearer of
words of peace and to place himself and his
clergy at the service of the Republic. General
CAVAIGNAC immediately gave orders that every faci-
lity should be given to the venerable prelate, who,
accompanied by his colleagues, went immediately to
the barricades, carrying with him General CA-.
TAIGNAC'S proclamation to the insurgents. The
Archbishop fell a martyr to his Christian exertions;
he was fired upon, wounded in the groin, and con-
veyed to the Hospital des Quinze Vingts, where
he died.

THE NATIONAL ASSEMBLY,

EVENING SITTING OF SUNDAY.
[The following report of the proceedings of the Na-
ional Assembly during their sitting of Sunday is in con-
inuation from The Sun of yesterday:—
At a quarter to nine the sitting was resumed, M.
S6nard in the chair.]
Great agitation was perceptible in the Chamber. The
representatives were collected in groups, speaking of
the events of the day, and in particular of the death of
General Negrier, one of the questors of the Assembly.
The President rose and said that the intelligence
which he had given in the morning and during the
course of the day, relative to the measures taken for the
defence of Paris, must have prepared the representatives
for the heavy price at which the preservation of order
and the defence of the Republic must be purchased.
Events had since progressed, and the provisions formed
had been realised. The difficulties of the case, said the
Honourable President, have been immense, but
the cause of order and liberty has at last triumphed.
This moment, since I have taken the chair, I have re-
ceived a dispatch from General Lamoriciere, whom we
had heard nothing of for some hours, and that he had
succeeded in making the movement which he so long
aimed at, to effect a junction with the body coming
from the Hotel de Ville. That event has taken place
on the Place de la Bastille, so that all the commnnica-
lions in that quarter are now open.—General Lemon-
ciere had sent word of this result to General Cavaignac,
who, in consequence of the connexion which exists be-
tween him and your President, has at once transmitted
the intelligence to me. This fact now appears well es-
tablished, that the Government forces are now in pos-
session of all the places where the insurrection had de-
clared itself strongest, with the sole exception of the
Faubourg St. Antoine. Still the closest attention will
still be required to prevent the insurgents from renew-
ing their attempts, for wherever there has appeared a
chance of success they are ready to make an effort.
They aro now outside the barriers, where they are trying
to make attempts. They have tried to become masters
of Montmartre, and then of the barrier of Fontaine-
bleau—in fact, wherever they supposed the troops were
not likely to go, there they tried to establish themselves.
But every precaution is being taken, and soon Paris will
be totally delivered of these disturbers. But this result
has been purchased at a dreadful price. The National
Assembly suffers in some of its most valuable Members
also. A Member whose hand I grasped this morning—
one so honoured and beloved—General Negrier—has
perished !—(Here M. Sidard was much affected; marks
of grief in the Assembly.) M. Charbonnel also has fallen !
(Sensation)—and M. Dornes, whose position was yester-
day so satisfactory, is at present in-a most serious state.
But I must call your attention to other matters. The
prisons are full; the men taken in arms have to be de-
fended from popular indignation even by the very per-
sons who have made them prisoners. We are told that
we ought not to allow the incertitude now existing to
continue; that we ought to decide on some measure in
harmony. with the savage character of the war at this
moment carried on; that, in the interest of humanity,
we ought to decide on some energetic measure. The
insurgents, finding themselves without hope, have given
way to such acts of ferocity as are a disgrace to hu-
manity. It is impossible to express to you what painful
impressions have been produced in my mind—and I feel
certain in yours—by the narrative of their conduct.
It is not whilst under the emotion which we now
feel that it would be proper to decide in such a case
—it is whilst we are calm and free from any violent
feeling that we ought to act. What legislators should
determine on in so grave a matter ought to bear the im-
press of calm and dignity—all ought to be serious,
grave, and firm. Were the Assembly to decide now, it
would go, I fear, beyond what it might afterwards ap-
prove of. I have prepared a resolution to meet the
case, and I now submit it to your consideration. It
runs thus :
" Art. 1. All persons taken with arms in their hands
shall be transported beyond the seas.
" Art. 2. The executive power is charged with the exe-
cution of this resolution."
I do not propose to you to decide on this measure to-
night—to-morrow when you have time to consider it, we
can vote.
Several voices—" Suspend the sitting now."
The President—l have no more information to give.
Voices—" Well then, you had better suspend the
sitting to eight o'clock to-morrow."
This was agreed to, and the representatives left the
Chamber at a quarter to ten.
MONDAT MORNING SITTING.
The Representatives assembled on Monday morning
at a quarter past eight, when the President informed
the Assembly that every part of Paris was now in the
hands of the Government, with the exception of the
Faubourg St. Antoine. He stated that between two
and three in the morning four delegates from the insur-
gents had been introduced to him by M. Larabit, one
of the representatives. These men had made various
proposals, but General Cavaignac had refused all, of every
description, unless they first surrendered unconditionally.
Great surprise was felt in the Assembly at the intelli-
gence that M. Larabit, M. Galy-Cazalat, and M. Druet, all
three members of the Chamber, supported the demands of
these men. Up to ten o'clock was given to the insur-
gents to decide, and if they had not laid down their
arms at that hour a new attack was to be made on them
by the troops.
The Bill presented by the President the night before
declaring that any person taken in arms should be
transported beyond sea, was then adopted, as was a
proposition for the appointment of a Committee of
Inquiry, to investigate the circumstances connected
with the late events, as well as those of the attack on
the Assembly on May 15.
TERMINATION OF THE INSURRECTION.
At a quarter after one the PRESIDENT announced
to the Assembly that he had received a note
from General CAYAIGNAC, stating that hostilities had
recommenced at 10 o'clock, but that shortly after-
wards the insurgents of the Faubourg St. Antoine
had surrendered unconditionally. The note con-
cluded as follows :--"At the moment I shall be cer-
tain that the powers which had been confided to me
by the National Assembly, for the safety of the
Republic, shall be no longer necessary, I • shall
hasten to remit them into the hands of the President."
The insurgents at first refused to surrender unless
they were allowed to retain their arms; these terms
were of course refused. The attack was commenced,
and then they surrendered at discretion, and im-
mediately themselves commenced pulling down the
barricades. Orders have been given to close the
clubs, and to suppress all journals which excite the
people to civil war, and to prosecute all National
Guards who had refused to turn out for duty.
Several women selling liquors to the soldiers (car-
tinieres) were arrested on Sunday, for selling poi-
soned brandy and wine. The same fact was re-
peated in other parts of Paris. Many soldiers have
perished in this way.

Advices from Prague, of the 20th, announce the
arrests of Count DEYM, Count BouQuor, and Baron
VILLANI, and many Members of the Swarnort.
From the papers seized it appears that a regular
organized insurrection had been prepared for the 15th
of June, with ramifications in the provinces.
