LONDON, FRIDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 24, 1848

The Patrie gives the following account of the cir-
cum,tances attending the duel between M. Go-up-
CHAUX and General BARAGUAY

Oa Tuesday, when M. Goudchaux was maintaining
from the tribune of the National Assembly that all the
holders of the Treasury bonds should profit by the mea-
sure proposed by M. Trou-so Chauvel, General Baraguay
said from his place that it was for the interest
of M. Goudchaux to extend this benefit to all holders of
these bonds, because he held a large share of them, in
concert with a celebrated banker of Paris. Coming down
from the tribune, and going up to the General, M.
Goudchaux gave him the direct lie. The General, with.
cut attempting to support his assertion, immediately de-
manded satisfaction, and sent two friends, M. Dariste
end M. Laussedat, both representatives of the people, to
make arrangements with M. Clement Thomas and M.
Kestner, whom Goudchaux had :chosen as his seconds.
They met with pistols, at twelve o'clock, at the Bois do
Boulogne, and, being placed at a distance of forty paces,
advanced upon each other and fired. Neither shot took
effect, and the seconds interfered, declaring that enough
had been done to satisfy the honour of both. General
Baraguay d'Hilliers then withdrew the expression he had
used, and declared that he did not intend to insult M.
Goudchaux."

The following letter :was on Wednesday addressed
by several members of the Club of Deputies of the
Institute to the Vice-President of the Club :
" We have the honour to address to you our resigna-
tion as members of the Club of the Institute. We re-
gret that a profound difference of opinion as to our
duties towards the country in the present circumstances
should place us under this painful necessity; but we can-
not admit that we have in the eyes of some of our col.
leagues failed in these duties either as citizens or repre-
sentatives. We think, on the contrary, that we have
in both respects understood them, and we have been
desirous to perform them in an unequivocal manner,
without reserve, and after a mature appreciation of men
and things. This is our conviction, and we firmly be-
have that it is entitled to general respect.

The National announces the- formation of a new
society (among the members of which are to be found
the greater number of the seceders from the club of
the Institute), which is called the Democratic Society
of the Friends of the Constitution. The object of its
members is to maintain by every means in their
power the principles of the Republican constitution,
and it takes for its motto—Conciliation for persons—
Inflexibility for principles. M. BUCHEZ, the first
President of the National Assembly, is the President
of the Association.

M. PROUDHON'S paper, the Peuple, which was sus-
pended by General CAVAIGNAC in June, re appeared
on Wednesday.
The Constitutionnel publishes a list of thirty-four
individuals, inhabitants of Lombardy, upon whom
Marshal RADETZKY has within the last few days
raised a forced loan of 11,710,000 Italian lire (up-
wards of 400,0001. sterling). The Constitutionnel
says that this proceeding of Marshal RADRTZRY'S is
nothing but an abominable confiscation, which can
only be compared to BARHES's proposal on the 15th
of May of a tax of a milliard on the rich.
This proves the truth of the proposition on
which we have of late had so frequently to
insist that the principles of protection and
of Red Republicanism, of Absolutism and of So-
cialism, are essentially the same, and have the same
end in view, vie., the plunder of the industrious for
the benefit of the idle.

Among the persons from whom this loan is forced
are four members of the ex-Provisional Government,
namely Count VITALIEN BORROMEE for 800,000 lire,
Count G hBRIO CASATE for 300,000 lire, M. BARETTA
for 50,000 lire, and Count POMPEO LITTA, the his-
torian, for 60,000 lire. The Duke VISCENTE, the
Duke LITTA, the Marquis ALA, and several others,
figure for 800,000 lire.
The twenty- eight representatives of the depart-
ment of the North have unanimously determined to
vote for General CAVAIGNAC.

Several persons collected yesterday under the win-
dows of the residence of Louis NAPOLEON, in the
Mace -Vendome, shouting Vice l'Empereur. He
immediately came out, and shook hands with several
of the crowd. He was loudly cheered by his ad-
herents.
The Presse says, the Marshal BUGEAUD has pro-
nounced in favour of Lours NAPOLEON BONAPAWEE.

M. DB BONNARD, a physician, and MM. DE LE-
RSGNAC and CLOVIS MOItTIER, advocates, founders of
the Club of the Redoute, in the Rue de Grenelle St.
Honore, which club was provisionally closed, by
order of the Chamber of Council, until the jury should
have pronounced on the speeches delivered there, ap-
peared yesterday before the 6th Chamber of Correc-
tional Police, on a charge of having, at a pretended
electoral meeting, refused entrance to the commissary
of police. M. DE LERIGNAC argued that the tribunal
was incompetent, and that a jury ought to he called
in to give an opinion as to the character of the meet-
ing which had occasioned the prosecution. The
tribunal eleclarel itself competent, and ordered the
case to proceed. The accused then declared that they
made default. The Court condemned them to 200 f.
fine each and costs.

A meeting of the supporters of Louis NAPOLEON
BONAPARTE was held at Batignolles, on Tuesday,
under the Presidency of General MONTIIOLON. An
irruption of Red Republicans took place, who expelled
the partisans of the Prince, and carried resolutions in
favour of RASPAIL.
