(Cries of " No, nu")—a judicial investigation into the
affair of the day before wa• going- on—why nut leave the
matter with it —(No, no.) P they decided sguinst avy
of the princip d agents of the Gov 4 rnment, it would be
casting a reflection on the Provisional Government.
M. l)upin muse remind the Assembly that this was
not en ordinar moment; that the whole oreer and tran-
quillity and propriety of France depended on the deci-
eions which were now come to by the repreeentaives.
Paris could not continue to be thus constantly troubled;
an end must be put to these continual alarms; but let
'
the Assembly sift the matter to the bottom, and set
with vigour, punishing those who should be found to •
merit it.—(Applause.)
The Minister of Justice entered into a narrative of •
the affair of April 16, and then of April 20, with a view
to prove that M. Caussidilre must have taken measures
to preserve order. Alluding to Flotte, who was sti9i
pected of murder, he partially exculpated the Prefect Oa
Police fur his conduct in that matter, on the re°ll
that when the suspected person went to the Prefecture
of Police, M. Caussid are certainly was not provided
with the necessary warrants. In the after part of he
day before, some unfortunate confusion, 8°113„
extraordinary mistake, had led to the lamer':
able scene which they had all witnessed, and R°
should not, he said, lay the blame on M. Caussidiare
yet he could not but advert to a fact which had occurtti:
the evening before as extraordinary. It was, that) tijof
prisoners, when under the safe keeping of a Parth
National Guards, were set at liberty by one of
functionary's agents, who declared that the Prefect v
Police would sanction what he did.—(Sensation.)
M. Caussidiare again addressed the Assembly et 00';
siderable length, declaring that all that be had done gas
intended to conciliate parties.—(oh, oh.) Ile did °he
deny the truth of the facts alleged, but he threw
blame on his agents.
M. J. Fevre here demanded the tribune to rnek.e° 3/1
important announcement. Since the morning the rren
k
fecture of Police was to have been surrounded and tsaen
prisoner by the National Guards in the name of the ''.o;
vernment.—(Hear, hear.) That most difficult operati
at
had just, he was happy to state, been effected withcle
one drop of blood having been shed.—(Loud apple
