called upon to answer or plead thereto. We find,
it laid down in " Blackstone's Commentaries" (vul.
iv., p. 308), " that the usual oljects of an information
ez -officio are properly such enormous misdemeanours
as peculiarly tend to disturb or endanger the Queen's
Gorernment, or to violate or affect her in the
regular discharge of her royal functions." Such, for
instance, as " seditious or blasphemous libels or weds,"
&c. &c. It will, therefore, at once be manifest how
appropriate is such a mode of proceeding to the
offences charged against the traversers. In fact the
very reason for granting this extraordinary power
was that persons guilt• of such conduct should he
promptly and speedily brought to justice, and not
permitted to interpose the delays to which they would
be entitled in ordinary cases, and to continue their
trischievous proceedings, influencing the popular
mind, and exciting the passions of the people
during the intermediate period before they could be
consigned to their well-deserved punishment.

As a spectacle—simply as a spectacle—the first
meeting of the National Assembly will be an his-
torical incident of a very extraordinary character. It
will present in one magnificent group the most con-
spicuous men in a remarkable age—an age of great-
ness in a hundred departments of intellectual enter-
prize. The patriarch of three revolutions, the con-
temporary of the Conventionalists, the sanguine and
impassive spectator of all those wonderful vicissitudes
which chequered the careers of such men as MIRA-
VERGNIAUD, ROBESPIERRE, and NI APOLES*I
will sit aide by tide with the youthful emissaries
of the south, upon whose cheeks the down of
pubescence hss scarcely appeared, whose eyes are still
sparkling with the hilarity of childhood, and whose
lips have hardly acquired the trick of a masculine
compression. Upon the same bench with the vener-
able DUPONT (the VADIER of a more peaceful era!)
may be ranged the Baaaastotix and the LoUYBTS of a
new and more fortunate Gironde. The silvered hair
Of BER•NGER may contrast with the sombre locks of
that cowled orator of the Benedictines, whose utter-
ance is an inspiration not unworthy of BoSSUET.
Next to LACORDAIRE may be recognised the spiri
tuelle but somewhat lugubrious visage of DE Lam-
sumais. There will be seen the swarthy form
of DUMAS, and cheek-by-jowl with the great
.feuilletonivt the Hebrew features of the abstruse
CREMIEtI, or the boy-face of the petit Louis
BLaNc. In one direction will be the creator of
Quasimodo, in another the delineator of Dagobert,
and, were there not a tacit disqualification against
the admission of petticoats, we doubt not but that
Madame DUDEVANT herself would rival by her
legislative declamation the efforts of those contempo-
rary novelists. CORMENIN will be there with much
of the cynicism and more of the improvisation of a
true Timon. EMILE GIRARDIN will more readily
redeem the accidental anomalies of his position in the
trillune of a senator than in thecabinet of a journalist.
His eccentric moderation may not, by some happy
fatality, be contrasted with the ultra-extravagance of
an ALBERT or a FLOCON. In the midst of this diversi-
fied assemblage of representatives, mien of agriculture
and men of manufactures, dreamers of poetry and
ri,etoricians of the pulpit, writers of romances and
-cribes fur the theatres, sculptors, painters, tragedians,
comedians, farmers, advocates, journalists, monks,
rtizans, merchants—in the midst of all these, sym-
pathising with all these, beloved by all these, one re-
publican will maintain a certain amount of pre-emi-
nence—himself a poet, a journalist, a romancist,
an
Historian, an orator, and a statesman. Every lip will
nave expressed the name of this great citizen before it.
is written, every heart will say, it is the author of
Jocelyn," the biographer of the Girondists, thu
Byron of France, the most touching of the pilgrims
of Palestine—the chief mover, the Voice, and the
Genius of the Revolution of February. Every
tongue will have articulated the name of LAMARTINE,
and every bosom will have glowed with the anticipa-
tion of his election by the National Assembly as the
President of the French Republic.
Scarcely twenty-four hours since we could not
have indulged in these tranquil reveries as to the
future progress of events among the Parisians. Now
we can and do indulge in them with a boundless con-
fidence, satisfied that the gulf of peril has been over-
leaped. Of course we have as yet received very
little more than an inkling of the result of the elec-
tions in the metropolis and the departments- We
must await the arrival of the ultimate intelligence ,
with tranquillity. Nevertheless, enough information
has already reached our shores to demonstrate the
complete discomfiture of the ultra-revolutionary
party, represented in the Provisional Government by
the four principal Communists, LEDRU ROLLIE
LOUIS BLANC, FERDINAND FLOCON, and ALBERT
A more glorious triumph to the Moderates led by
LAMARTINE could not by any possibility have been
achieved. Everywhere they are proving victorious—
in the capital as well as in the departments. Every-
where the horror entertained for the Communist-
Montagnards is testified by the majorities given to
their antagonists. BLANQUI will be compelled to
practise his aptitude for conspiracy upon his own
tacticians, like the scorpion exhausting the venom of

It may, however, be said that the Attorney-
General, having, in the first instance adopted the
common course and indicted the parties, should not
have afterwards altered his mode of proceeding, and
had recourse to his extraordinary privilege, and that
the defendants were thereby subjected to inconve •
nience, and had some reason to complain. There
might be some justice in this argument if the grand
jury had ignored the bills that were sent before them.
In such a case, although the privilege would still have
remained to tile Attorney- General, and he would
have been fully authorised to charge them by ex-
officio information, it would be generally regarded
as an oppressive exercise of power, and the
public sympathies would be excited in favour
of the persons who had been thus harshly
dealt with. Almost the last case of this description
was that of the Orange rioters at the Theatre Royal,
ILIA kins -street, when a bottle- was flung at. the
Marquis %VELLESLEY, the then. Lord-Lieutenant of
Ireland, for which Lord PLITNHET, ho, at that time,
filled the office of Attorney-General, filed ex officio
informations, after the bills for exactly the same
charge had been thrown out by the grand jury. In
the present instance, however, nothing of this descrip.
tion has taken place. The bills were found (we
believe unanimously) by the grand jury. No question
could exist that the matters charged were proper
subjects for investigation before the Court. A purely
technical objection, not going in the slightest degree
to the merits of the case, was, however, put
forward by Mr. MITCHELL, who had previously
boasted that he would interpose no difficulty of
any kind to a full and fair investigation, but that
he would be as ready to meet the law officers in
a court :of justice as he would the forces of the
Government in the field. Notwithstanding the
boldness of his language, when the time for pleading
had arrived, a plea in abatement, or what is termed a
dilatory plea, was filed, objecting to the constitution
of the grand jury, because one of the grand jurors
was also a member of the Town Council. Although
there was little weight in the objection, it was at
once perceived that the arguments thereon, followed
most probably by an appeal to the Exchequer
Chamber, and from thence to the House of Lords,
would retard the final decision for at least six
months, if not for a still longer period, and
that in the meantime the defendants would persevere
in the insane and reckless manner which had
rendered them so painfully notorious. It was, there-
fore, wisely and judiciously determined by the autho-
rities to abandon the indictment, and to commence de
7tollo by filing informations, on which speedy judg-
ment might be obtained. We venture to affirm that
no well-disposed persons can be found to dissent from
the propriety of such a course, or to censure the law
officers for having had recourse thereto. Mr
MITCHELL may, perhaps, find that his boast is rather
unpleasantly realised, and that he will find himself
face to face with the ministers of justice more spee-
dily than he anticipated. His partisans and ad-
mirers may be bitterly disappointed, but the rest of
the community will applaud the vigorous and decisive
conduct of the Irish Attorney-General.

About seventy years ago (in 1777), when the dy-
nasty of the old Bourbons reigned supreme in France,
and when England was as yet paramount in America,
a young Frenchman, hardly twenty years of age,
possessed of high rank, large fortune, and powerful
friends in his native country, left them all, and, in-
spired by the enthusiasm of an ardent temperament
and a sublime devotion to the cause of liberty, pro-
ceeded to the new world to take part in the struggle
for independence there commencing. He fought as
a volunteer in the ranks of the American patriots, he
shared in the peril 3 and glories of the first desperate
battles which signalised the American war, and his
courage and genius elicited the thanks of the Ame-
rican Congre-s. But not his single arm only did he
devote to the liberal cause ; he raised and equipped
soldiers at his own expense. He returned to his
native country to procure reinforcements, and with
them again proceeded to signalise himself in the
great struggle. And so much did he there signalise
himself that his name became identified with Ameri-
can independence. So strenuous and so powerful
were his exertions, and so successful were his
endeav, urs, that it was said, with the ex-
aggeration of poetical license, that he "a vingt
ans, d'un inowle etait l'appui." But with the
glorious termination of his American career the
wonderful events of his existence were by no means
ended. Returned to his native country, he then took
part in another struggle for emancipation—a struggle
more desperate, more blood-stained, and in conse-
quence hardly so glorious as the one in which he had
played so prominent a part. Here also his post was
not insignificant. He witnessed the downfil of the
once powerful Bourbon throne but while aiding in
the overthrow of that throne he was also—and to his
honour be it remembered—instrumental in preserving
(for a time) its unfortunate tenants. Marvellous, in-
deed, were the events which transpired during that
one man's life. he beheld a French Republic striving
to emulate the great democracies of old, he saw that
Republic fall, and give way to an empire which
far eclipsed the glory of its most glorious prede-
cessors. That too succumbed to the resistless force
of circumstances, and the Bourbon dynasty once
more filled the throne of France. Yet the wonders
of this individual history were not yet terminated.
He, who almost in his boyhood had stood forward as
one of the leaders in a mighty revolution, appeared
again in his veteran age, when passed the allotted life
of man, as a conspicuous partisan in another revolu-
tion, which once more (and fur the last time) hurled
the old Bourbon race from the throne of CHARLE.
Tit C And substituted in thrir place one who was
fondly deemed a " Citizen King." Had that veteran
Republican lived a few years longer he would have
had cause to believe, indeed, in the mutability of for-
tune, if the experience of his chequered life had not
already taught him that lesson. But we, who hare
before us the records of his life—we, looking upon
the events of the present day, cannot fail to be struck
by the marvellous chain of events therein chronicled,
and more especially we cannot in consequence fail
to he in a peculiar degree interested by that event
which has just now recalled the name of LAFAYETTE
to our memory—an event which transpired last
\Vednesday, when the Republic of the United
States of America, by the mouth of their Represen-
tative in France, tendered their recognitions and
congratulations to the Republic of France.
The American Ambassador was among the first to
acknowledge the new Government of France ; but
still acknossledgment was necessarily tendered with-
out the cognizance of his Government. Now, how-
ever, the astonishing tidings of French emancipation
has reached the ears and agitated the heart of the
sister Republic of America, and the expressions of
the joyful sympathy and cordial amity of America
have been from thence dispatched to France. The
address of the American Minister was responded to
by kMAItLINE—by that Foreign Minister who is
so peculiarly happy in his various answers to the
very various deputations which he is officially called
upon to receive. Commencing hie discourse with an
appropriate allusion to the former friendship of France
and America, and alluding to the fact of the Ameri-
can being the first official recognition of the French
Republic.—" France was the first," he said,
" to recognise the independence of the American Re-
public, then young, weak, and still contested, but
which under the fruitful influenee of the democratic
century to increase
to the proportions of neat...), a
principle was destined in hi
alf

it has belonged

lits sting on its own entrails, when girdled by a ring
of fire. CARET finds even before the appropriate
month of April has terminated that a mine has
morally been sprung under the haunts of
the anarchists, even at the moment when those
inarchists have been making excavations to the
,owder•magazines in the cellars of the Hotel de
Ville. SOBRIIR must disband his body-guard of
mountaineers in dudgeon, and, supposing he feels so
disposed, to annihilate the remembrance of his i.ea-
souous schemes against liberty, he will find his crim-
son sash (until yesterday the insignia of sedition)
in admirable substitute for a halter. Even PIERRE
Leaoux will have discovt red by this time the neces•
sty of slinking back into a more congenial obscurity ;
-ind the Provisional Minister of the Interior may
speedily have more leisure to disport himself, in the
bonnet rouse, in the saloons of Versailles knd
Rambouillet. Particulars of the proportionate
!lumber of votes, already counted out of
the urns of Paris, will be found in another
column, and in every instance those particulars
will prove to be fraught with advantage to the
Moderates, and especially calculated to attest
the admiration of the people for LANIARTINR. In
the first arrondissement, for exampled it seems
that, as elsewhere, the name of the Provisional
Minister for Foreign Affairs heads the list of the
thirty-four successful canditates, 17,800 out of 19,000
votes having been awarded to him by that division of
the Parisians. A similar result will be found ap •
pended to almost every other table of calculations,
and satisfactory intelligence as to the majorities
awarded to the moderate candidates has been received
from the departments of the Aines, Aube, Doubs,
Eure, Indre et Loire, Maine et Loire, Nievre, &c. &c.
In defiance of the intimidation, the intrigues,
and the corruption of the anarchists, in spite
of the violence of the commissaries, the degradation
of judges, the dismissal of magistrates, and the
threats suspended over the populace by the
,missaries of M. LEDRU ROLLIN—the Moderate

IAW officers of the Crown in that country, who have
riitherto acted so efficiently and discreetly, combining
a wise and temperate but firm administration of the
law with moderation and mercy, that this mistake
should be corrected, and that the real state of the case
,hould be fully explained. The prosecutions have
not been abandoned, although they will be carried on
in a different form from that in which they were
,eig,rinally instituted. Juries will have to try the
parties in the same manner, and for the same offences,
and if convictions are obtained, exactly the saute
punishment will await the offenders. The Attor-
ney:G eneral is authorised, by virtue of his office,
to file a formal written of

his conviction that Republicanism would en•
dure in France, because he believed the
French people to be ripe for their institutions ; be-
cause " what had fifty-five years back been only the
idea of the superior men of the nation, had passed
into the ideas and habits of the whole people," he
concluded his observation by the following most ex-
pressive and felicitously appropriate sentiment, by
which he sought to convey the expression of the
sensibility and gratitude with which France responds
to the friendly assurances of America. Every
Frenchman," he said, " has for the Americans the
heart of LAFAYETTE." Every Frenchman has for the
Americans the heart of LAFAYETTE. All the eloquence of
LAMARTINE himself would have been incapable of ex-
pressing more than is comprised in those few words.
This little incident may be regardel as the noblest
monument that could be erected to the memory of
LAFAYETTE. Now that his eventful career is closed,
and his zealous exertions are at an end, his name is
invoked as a bond of union between France and
America, those two great countries equally dear to
his heart. It is invoked as a bond of union at a time
when Republicanism is established in both countries
—when both are possessed of the full enjoyment of
liberty—of that liberty to whose sacred cause LA-
FAYETTE devoted his life from the early days of his
boyhood to his extreme old age. It is right, then,
that in the mutual felicitations of Republican France
and Republican America, LAFAYETTE should be re-
membered, and that remembrance is, as we have said,
the noblest monument to his name.

all proprietors of mortgaged property to make a de-
claration of the same to the Minibter of Finance,
under penalty of being obliged to pay the tax of one
per cent. imposed on the owners of such mortgages
I,y a decree of the Provisional Government published
on the 19th instant.

The Provisional Government bias given up the
idea of purchasing the different lines of railway for
the State, and the question is left to he dealt with by
the National Assembly. The National contains the
following announcement on the subject :
" The Provisional Government had the intention of
purchasing the different lines of railway for the state.
We have so often said what we think of this measure, as
to render it unnecessary to repeat the advantages which
would flow from it to both contracting parties. Un-
fortunately, certain directors, interested in the prolonga-
tion of their splendid salaries, have not taken the
realities of the situation into account, and have made
very strong and numerous protests against the project
of the Government. From these protests and complaints
they proceeded to accusation and attack; the words spo-
liation and confiscation were pronounced, and the real
difficulties of the question were furthercomplicated by new
difficulties invented by malevolence. In presence of this
calculated hostility, what ought the Government to have
done ? Without doubt it might, by employing the dic-
tatorial power with which it was legitimately investet
on its formation, have broken dcwn all obstacles, and
decreed the purchase; but the prudence and spirit of
justice which it has displayed in its acts have caused it
to adopt quite another line of conduct. It has preferred
to abstain, and to submit to the National Assembly the
project which it had conscientiously studied, alter having
obtained the best information, and taken the opinion of
special men, after having taken that of interested par-
ties. It is therefore the Assembly which will have to
decide the question. Such is at least the opinion, which
a mere credited day after day, and which Is justified by
the delay which has taken place in the publication of the
decree."
The Commerce notices, as follows, the first part of
a report of the Commission of the Luxembourg :
" The General Commis:ion sitting at the Luxembourg
has just commenced the publication, in the Ifleniteur, of
the general account of its labours. M. Louis Blanc does
not appear to have lost one of his adu-ions, notwith-
standing the unfavourable reception which all France has
given to his theories. According to the lion. President
of the Commission, the &mutat of what he is pleased
to call the regime of antagonism and hatred is imminent,
and society only aspires to enter with full sail in the
waters of socialism. • Perhaps,' he observes, perhaps
the fall may be retarded by some temporary compro-
mises, and for our part we shall not refuse to prop up
with all our power that old edifice which is on all sides
splitting and cracking. We may be believed in what we
say on this subject—we to whom, since the revolution of
February, this perilous and ungrateful task has only
procured almost superhuman fatigues, abuse, and ca-
lumny, calumny, too, from those very persons whose
security we protected at the risk of our popularity, and
sometimes at the peril of our lives. But let no one de-
ceive himself—the time is passed far vain palliatives ; a
nesperate situation demands extreme remedies. No,
thank God, the situation is not so desperate as persons
would wish it to be thought ; France is not yet at its
last agony ; calm and security, aided by a large dose of
liberty, will be sufficient to restore her to health ; the
constitution of the patient is strong, and the pulse goes
well, although a little feveri,h. We answer for her eure
—on this condition, however, that care be taken not to
make use of 11. Louis Blanc's remedies."

It evident from the following article in the
Reforme, that M. LEDRU Ronnix feels that he has
no longer any chance of succeeding in his schemes
by legitimate means :

The Reforme says :
We are among those—and we have declared it dis-
tinctly—who only understand a Revolution in its most
logical acceptation, that is to say, as the renovation of
the regime which succumbs for the advantage of the
regime which it is desired to establish. We should never
have thought, for example, of constructing a republican
government with the elements of monarchy, and we
should only have proceeded to that task on ground well
and duly cleared. Our logic, it seems, was wrong; but
it remains to be seen whether it is really a republican
government which was in view. There are so many
ways of constituting a republic, that we may ask this
question without giving offence. However that may be,
it is under the influence of the servants of royalty that
the elections have taken place—it is under the surveil-
lance of functionaries left in their places, that the
scrutiny has been every where opened. You see what
has issued from the urn—you see what an assembly that
promises. To judge from the first returns, the majority
will be centre gauche. The tuture constitution is in good
hands. Still it is an excellent trial to make, and for our
part we are quite resigned. We will await our repre•
sentatives at the task, and we are certain, whatever they
do, that the Republic will not perish."

IV the returns on the asset side, it will be sett) that
the metallic reserve at the Paris establishment of the
Bank of France has increased during the past week
about 2,800,000 f, but that it has fallen off in the
branch banks to within a trifle of the same extent:
the amount of specie in the bank is therefore about
the saute as the preeeling week. The amount of
discounted bills becoming due in Paris is less by
9,680,000 f., but the branch banks show an increase o'
such accommodation to the extent of 4,000,000 t. On
t►ie side of the liabilities, the notes in circulation have
increased about 4,500,000 f. The account current of
the Treasury has fallen off from 36,885,000 f. to
26,360 000 f., showing a diminution of upwards of
101 millions of francs in the week. The account-
currents of private individuals have increased a little
more than 2,000,000 f. The amount of the metallic
reserve is at present about 88,700,000 f. to
349,000,000 f. of notes in circulation.
The sum total of the patriotic donations to the 1

Goverment, up to the 25th instant, amounted to

The Minister of War, on Thursday, visited the bar-
racks occupied by the 2d Regiment of Dragoons. He
examined the buildings, tasted the food, and gave
orders that every improvement should be made in the
liodgings of the men and in the stables.
Serious disturbances took place during the elections
some of the provincial towns.
'During the whole of Wednesday great excitement

i revelled, at Rouen. Groups Place and of workmen assembled
discussed the probable
Angou:llie—MM. Planet, Mayor of Cognac;" La-,

I
tried to stop them, a collision took place. Though
deaux.

it was without gravity, an imposing force of infantry,
hussars, artillery, and National Guard turned

out, and the Hotel de Ville was occupied.
At about nine o'clock in the evening a band

composed of 200 persons, passed along the quays,
,houting, "A bas rAssemblee Nationale I" and "Vivo
Deschamps !" and singing the Ca ira. Near the Rue
St. Lo a company of the National Guard separated
the crowd, whereupon there were cries of " Down
with the National Guard ! Down with the Aristo-
crats !" On the Place des Carmes a troop of dra-
-gdons dispersed a crowd, who cried " Down with the
Dragoons !" After passing along the Place Saint.
-Ouen, which was occupied by the National Guard
and hussars, the people dispersed. The night passed
off quietly.
Yesterday morning much agitation was again
visible. Bands of young men approached the Na-
tional Guards stationed at the Hotel de Ville, and
endeavoured to irritate them by making use of
insulting expressions. A false report was soon after

raised that the people had been fired on, and a

general cry was raised of " Aux armes, on assassine
nos freresl" At the same time a patrol of Na-
tional Guards - was attacked, and an attempt
made to disarm' them. This attempt only suc-
ceeded in part, and the National Guards at length
reached the Hotel de Vile. Stones were thrown
at the armed force. A piquet of dragoons and
some National Guards a cheval charged the crowd,

and cleared the square. In the mean time the barri
cades were raised in several pints of the town, but
they were soon carried by the troops. As night ap-
proached the rioters became emboldened, and at-
tempted to defend themselves. One man was shot,
and another killed by a thrust from a bayonet. As
soon as the conflict began the Government commis-
sary went to the Hotel de Ville to concert measures
of defence with the municipal authorities and the
commandants of the armed force. Among the par-
ties arrested and wounded are several liberated con•
victs. Some individuals, above the working class,
have also been arrested, who are suspected of having
instigated the rioters, and it is hoped that all the
chiefs of the movement are in the hands of justice.
The Journal de Oise of the 27th gives a very
long account of the events which occurred at Beau-
vais on the two preceding days. About a thou-
sand of the National Guard unarmed, with a
numerous body of workmen, went to accompany
the sth regiment of dragoons some little dis-
tance on its way to Paris, the most friendly feel-
ing being displayed on both sides. On reaching 14
place called the Montagne Saint Genevieve, the dra-
goons met two battalions of infantry of the line,
marching with loaded arms, and with all the precau•
tions observed in an enemy's country. On being told
by the dragoons that they had just left Beauvais, the
infantry expressed the greatest surprise, they having
left Saint Denis in the middle of the night, in com-
pliance with an order which set forth that Beauvais
was in a frightful state, all the people in the neigh
bouring districts having marched in arms into the.
town. Continuing their march the two battalion:
reached Beauvais, worn out with fatigue and hunger,
they having had to march nine leagues after leaving
the railway, and having had no food on the way. A
cask of wine was immediately rolled into the street,
and the contents distributed among the soldiers. Many
of the inhabitants took the officers to dine with them.
Shortly after accommodation was provided for bott,
officers and men in private houses. The workmet,
who had accompanied the dragoons returnees
in a body in the afternoon, and greeted the line wit!
every demonstration of friendly feeling. Meanwhile,
great numbers of persons of Beauvais, having hears
at Paris that horrible scenes were passing, hasteneo
into the town, and were astonished to find everything
traoquil. It appears, however, that very grew•
agitation prevailed, owing to what the inhabitant:
considered the unwarrantable and violent acts of thi
commissaries of the Provisional Government. Tilt
inhabitants had made two demonstrations, in honom

of the Colonel and Lieutenant• Colonel of the N;,-

tional Guard, intending them as a v,arning to th(
commissaries. But these gentlemen responded by an
act which excited great indignation—the suspensioi,
of M. DANSE, the President of the Tribunal. M.

DANSE having declared that he would not obey the
suspension, but would take his seat on the bench, M.
PLACE, the Commissary, called out the National
Guard, the gendarmerie, and the troops ; and ordered
Lieut. DANIEL, of the National Guard, to take his corn-
pany to prevent M. amiss from sitting. M. DANIEI
formally refused, whereupon M. PLACE called on hin
to give up his sword, which M. DANIEL did. Som.
angry explanations then took place between N.
PLACE and some gentlemen of the town, and even•
tually the National Guard rushed into the building
and compelled M. PLACE to restore Lieut. DANIEL
sword that very instant. Meanwhile the people
hearing what had passed, assembled en masse, and
insisted that the sub commissaries, M. JOUVANTE
and M. LEGOUT, should immediately leave the town.
This they did, after being obliged to pass through the
ranks of the people. There were then cries that M.
PLACE should also leave, but on the recommendation
of the Mayor, and out of respect for him, the people.
consented to allow him to remain, on condition thaw
he should take M. FLYB, a respectable inhabitant, a,
sub•comtnissary. It was these events which led to
the reports about the position of Beauvais, and cause,
troops to be sent there.
On the day of the elections the inhabitants of tw.i
communes proceeded to Castelsarrasin (Tarn and
Garonne) to vote, but they were told to come again
the next day, as there was not time to receive tht
votes, They set out on their return, but, on being
addressed by some one, a cure, it is said, they returned,
and endeavoured to invade the place in which the
votes were received. The National Guard resented,
and a terrific struggle took place. The National
Guard was pelted with stones, and eventually inadi
use of their arms. On both sides persons wen
wounded, and it is said that two were killed.
We read in the Courtier de Lyon :—" We are as-
sured that General REY, to whom is attributed the
loss of the chests of arms and ammunition, which at
different times hare been carried off on the public
roads, is in flight, and that a warrant for his arre,l
was issued, but he has taken refuge in Savoy."
The following curious paragraph appeared in tilt-
Messenger Twenty-two men of the Garde Re-
publicaine were dismissed a few days ago for the fol-
lowing cause. The Government knew that armed
men attended nightly at Blanqui's club, where they
performed duty as police. A decree was being pre-
pared against this system, when one of the officers oe
the Hotel de Ville, going without a card and from
curiosity to the club, found himself in presence of a
post composed of his own men. It was about this
time that there was discovered in a cellar of the
Hotel de. Ville a tube in connexion with the cellar
where the gunpowder is deposited. After the disco-
very of this crime, which might have led to horrible
results, the men who were suspected of being con-
cerned in it were dismissed."

STATES.

Adrices from Milan of the 20th, quoted by the
azzetta Piedmontese, announce that a corps of
.„.",°°o men, composed of Pontifical, Tuscan, and
Neapolitan troops, are on their march to join the
Piedrnontese army, and that a part of them had
already effected their junction. General DuukriDo
11,rrived at Venice on the 15th, in company with
Adjutant PESCINTINI, for the purpose of inspect-
ir the buildings that might be used for barracks.
100 Pontifical troops were expected at Padua on
the 18th
.

The Augsburg. Gazette of the 23d states that the
yof the Isonzo has begun its operations. The
173urgents attacked an advanced post near Visco, and
the(' eight men. The Austrians marched upon that
Place, and, after an obstinate resistance, remained
toasters of the field.
The Pensiero Italiano of Genoa, of the 22d, an-
rrl,?tincea the arrival in that port of three distinguished
icilian personages, charged with a mission of the
t,ll3hest importance. They are Signor Luzax SCALIA,
Prince GRANATELLI, and Signor CARMELO AGNETTA.
A Popular demonstration in their honour was to take
Place that evening.
According to the Gazzetta di Firenze, the Tuscan
expedition, commanded by General FERRARI, has
entered Lombardy. It consists of six thousand re-
gular troops, exclusive of several thousand volunteers
and eighteen guns. The Tuscan troops act in accord-
ance with the Piedmontese army, and form part of
the Ist carps of the army of CHARLES ALBERT, corn-
tnanded by General BAVA, whose head-quarters are
at Gazzoldo.

According to the Gazettes di Venezia, the total
strength of the Austrian troops occupying Mantua,
*Verona, and Legnago, varies from 36,000 to 38,000
then.

The Jesuits have been expelled from Lombardy,
and their property sequestrated, by order of the Pro
visional Government.

The head-quarters of the troops were transferred
from Bologna to Ferrara on the 12th, and the
army of operations was to cross the Po the following
Week.

NAPLES AND SICILY.

The 22 Afars° of Milan, of the 221, announces offi-

FLANDERS MAIL.
BRUSSELS, Aram 27.—The Senate met this day
to hear reports on the naturalization, which were re-
ferred to a committee. The Senate afterwards ap-
pointed a commttee to examine the project of law for
the loan, as well as the project of law opening a
provisional credit of 20,000 francs to the department
of Finance, for the coinage of copper money.
The instruction relative to the affair of Resqueus-
tont is already so far advanced that the acts of occu-
ltation will be submitted to the examination of the
Chamber in the course of a few days.
L'Adependance says, "The project of law relative
to the tax on newspapers is to be laid before the
Chambers to-morrow or the day after. The coin-
Vete suppression of this tax is proposed, with the
exception of an ultimate resolution, which ought
to be made to the Treasury, and indemnify it for a
sacrifice, which amounts to at least 400,000 francs.
The augmentation of the Pestal revenue, which
amounts to at least 100,000 francs, is proposed as the
!pdetnnification. The 300,000 francs thus to be re-
linquished by the Exchequer will remain in the
%Ids of the proprietors, though it is expected that all
the journals will make a commensurate reduction to
their subscribers."

The Concordia of Turin, of the 24th, announces an
attack that took place, on the 19th, upon the fort of
131144 of Mantua, by a brigade of Piedmontese
ea/alry and three batteries of artillery, under Ge-
neral BAVA. The Austrians made a sally, but the
Piedmontese tirailleurs and chasseurs of the bri-
gade Aosta coming up, forced them to retire into
the fortress. The KING'S head-quarters are now at
Gazzoldo.
The Patria of Florence, of the 21st, mentions the
arrival of 96 Sicilian volunteers by the steamer Pa-
lermo. The Alba, of ths same date, states that 1,100
Piedmontese are at Piacenza, to join the Tuscan
troops that have passed the Po at Breseellu. BuLoa.-
