teers are organizing in Poland to come to the aid of the
Hungarians. The Democrats of Vienna, who knew that
with llungary would fall the power of Austria herself,
are also arming, and the famous Academical legion,
despite the dangers that are menacing it, even in
Vienna, have just sent off to the support of Pew a corps
delite. In fine, the French, who inhabit Hungary do
not wish to remain unmoved spectators of a war which
inspires such generous sentiments. Oa the 18th, the
following proclamation was posted on the walls of
Pesth:—
"'The French citizens residing at Pesth have obtained
the honour of forming a private corps of volunteers,
who will carry both the French and Hungarian colours.
They will receive arms from the Hungarian Govern-
ment, and will be led to the combat by M. Lafitte, an old
warrior, at whose residence they are invited to put down
their names. The uniform will be that of the National
Guard of Paris. All Frenchmen will be sure to listen
to this call of their fellow countrymen. They will feel
that the ilsg of the Republic ought to be shown in the
struggle that is about to take place, and that it is
France that combats wherever the cause of liberty is at
stake.' "

We find the following in the Republique :
" The state of the Bank of France continues to pre-
sent a considerable increase of specie in its coffers, but
its portfolio of bills due continues to undergo a constant
diminution. It is certain that this decrease is not at an
end, and it is to be feared that before long we shall
see its portfolio below fifty millions. Can it be other-
wise, when the Bank is overcharged with public securi-
ties, and seems to hold its millions only at the disposal of
the Government ? What can commercial houses hope
for, when aid seems to be designedly withheld from
them, and yet they never were in greater want of assist-
ance to enable them to get over the crisis which new
weighs them down ? We again repeat it—the Bank of
France ought to aid men in business, as well as give its
co-operation to the Minister of Finance. But it is cer-
tain that it does not do so, and, from the late returns,
the conclusion to be drawn is that the financial position
of the country is each day becoming worse."
Towards the conclusion of the debate on the 20th
Article of the Constitution in the National Assembly,
on Monday, M. DUVERGIER DE HAURANNE made
a most eloquent and argumentative speech in favour
of the principle of two Chambers, as opposed to the
principle of a single Chamber, which is proposed by
the framers of the Constitution.
The following lette: has been addressed by M. DE
LAMARTINE to the Democratic Club at Nismes, in
reply to their address to him ou the subject of his
speech on the right to labour :
" Citizens,----I thank you for the Republican blunt-
ness of your letter. I thank you for the confidence and
the kindness which it leads me to suppose you entertain
for me. I will reply to it with entire frankness also—it
is the politeness of the heart. lam not a Socialist, and
never have been. Read my writings and speeches on
this question from 1835 to 1848. Property, under all its
forms, is sacred in my eyes. I have always said that I
only knew one communism—the communism of senti-
ment; that is to say, the religious love of the people, the
progressive series of institutions of labour, assistance, and
practical fraternity calculated to ennoble, dignify, and
improve the condition of all our brethren. In proclaim-
ing the Republic we restored their sovereignty to the
people. To be sovereign they must be reasonable,
otherwise they soon lose the title and exercise of so-
vereignty. It is, therefore, for them now to govern
themselves by their legitimate representatives. If they
do not respect themselves in their elected, in what will
they do so? And if they do not respect themselves,
who will respect them in the world? Recommend them
moderation and wisdam, which are what I 'lever cease to
recommend myself. You think that I betray and abandon
them. You aro mistaken. I serve them in the only
manner in which they require to be served at this
moment. The impatience which is caused among them
is the certain loss of all the rights they have conquered,
and all the social advantages of which those rights pro-
perly exercised give them the pledge. If this misfortune
occurs history will not accuse me—it will accuse those
who mislead them. Tho Republic, such as they desired
it in February, March, and April, was the sovereignty
of public reason, not the wildness of impracticable
sects and suicidal passions; and such is the Republic
which will instruct, moralise, and enrich the people. If
of a sect or violent, the Republic would give the victory
of the lendemain to the enemies of human reason and
progressive institutions. I could desire to make this
conviction pass into your hearts, with the same strength
that it exists in mine. That is henceforth the only ser-
vice that I can endeavour to reader to our country. Put
aside after the storm by the impatience of some, the re-
sentment of others, I have no other ambition than that
of seeing the Republicans of all dates and all theories
unite in the idea common to all, of causing the Repub-
lican form to be accepted as the regular instrument of
perfected civilisation. In this point at least, citizens, we
are agreed; for whatever be the difference of our ideas
on the constitution of property, of labour, of branches
of industry, we aro Frenchmen, we are brethren, we are
Republicans."
The Minister of Agriculture and Commerce has
just addressed a circular to the prefects, calling on
them to send in returns as to the yield of the late
harvest. They are also directed to state particularly
the produce of the potato crop.
The seals which had been placed on the papers of
M.. CIIA.TEAUBRIAND after his decease were taken off
on Saturday, in presence of a commissary of the Ga-
vernment, charged to claim, in the name of the state,
such papers as might be found in the possession of
the ex-minister and ambassador of the Restoration of
a nature to interest the Republic.
The Republicain, of Havre, says that the municipal
councillors of that town have resolved to wait on the
wealthy inhabitants to solicit them to contribute to
the loan of 250,000 f. voted to provide for the eventu-
alities of the winter, and assist unemployed workmen.
The town, it is said, will pay 6 per cent. interest on
the loan.
The Minister of War has taken all necessary mea-
sures for the immediate execution of the decree of the
19th, by which the National Assembly has sanctioned
the creation in Algeria of agricultural undertakings
for affording means of existence, based on property,
to unemployed workmen in Paris and other large
towns. A commission has been appointed to examine
the claims of applicants. In an interview with the
committee the Minister of War announced that the
first detachment, consisting of .500 persons, destined
to form the first colony, will leave for Algiers at the
beginning of October, and other detachments will
follow every week. Everything has been prepared
for their reception in the colony. M. TRELAT has
been chosen President of the Committee, and M.
DIDIER, one of the representatives of Algeria, Vice-
President.
ARRIVAL OF LOUIS N APOLEON IN PARIS.
HIS APPEARANCE AT THE NATIONAL
ASSEMBLY.
The National Assembly met yesterday at the usual
hour, and considerable excitement was produced by
the announcement that Louts NAPOLEON was in
Paris, and was about to take his seat. A slight
movement was perceived in the neighbourhood of one
of the side doors of the hall of the Assembly, and
Prince Louis NAPOLEON entered and took his place
on the left between M. YIEILLARD, formerly his
tutor, and M. HAVIN. For a while the sitting was
'n a measure suspended, for though M. Messes'.
&tante went on with his remarks, not a word could
be heard.
The President—l have to call on Hon. Represen-
tatives to keep silence.
With some difficulty order was restored.
M. Marcel Barthe proceeded with his observations
in favour of a single Chamber, but was totally un
attended to.
The President—The tribune is to M. Clement for
an election return.—(Deep silence.)
M. Clement said he had been charged by the ninth
bureau to declare that the election of Louis Napoleon
Bonaparte, for the department of the Yonne had been
perfectly regular, and there was no opposition or pro-
test sent in. In consequence the bureau recom-
mended to admit the citizen Louis Napoleon Bona-
parte provisionally, until he should justify his age
and nationality.—(Marks of disapprobation ; noise ;
cries of " Send the case back to the bureau, and let a
proper declaration be made.")
The President—The Hon. Representative ought to
speak clearly and categorically on the case.—(Cries
of " Yes, yes," and uproar.)
M. Vivien—The bureau was quite clear about the
validity of the election. All the gentlemen present
belonging to the bureau were of opinion that a pure
and simple declaration in favour of the admission
might perfectly well have been given in. The ob-
stacle to such a course was, that certain susceptibili-
ties were felt by the Assembly on the subject. Public
notoriety as to age or nationality could, certainly in
a case like this, supply the place of documents.—
(Hear.) He proposed, therefore, that the election be
proclaimed valid and the citizen Louis Napoleon Bona-
parte be admitted forthwith.—(Cries C "" Yes, yes !")
The President—ls there any opposition ?—(Cries of
" No, no.") Consequently I proclaim that the citizen
Louis Napoleon Bonaparte is admitted as a member
of the Assembly.
Prince Louis Napoleon Bonaparte then rose in his
place and said, I demand permission to speak.
Voices from all sides—" To the tribune, to the
tribune."

Prince Louis Napoleon Bonaparte then ascended
the tribune, and read with a firm voice the following
address :

"Citizen Representatives--
"It is not permitted to me to guard silenoe after
the calumnies of which I have been the object.
" I require to express here, frankly, and on the
first day when I am permitted to sit amongst you,
the true sentiments which animate me—which have

always animated me.
"After thirty-three years of proscription and exile,
I at last recover my country and all my rights of a
citizen.

The Republic has given me this happiness; let
the Republic receive my oath of gratitude—my oath
of gratitude ; and may my generous countrymen who
