Sanse. OF APRIL 9.

Although the opening of the sitting was announced fur
half-past 12, it was within a few minutes of 1 when M.
Dupin took the chair. The excited curiosity which had
marked the commencement of the preceding sitting ap-
peared to have been extinguished by the moderate tone in
which the discussion was conducted ; the galleries were
not more crowded than on ordin try occasions, and the
bon. deputies strolled into the Chamber by twos and
threes, with their ordinary disregard of punctuality.
While the proces. verbal was being read, groups formed
them-elves in the circular space before the tribune,
conversing with some appearance of animation. After
the proces -verbal had been adopted, the sitting was sus-
pended for 20 minutes, the huissiers finding considerable
difficulty in inducing the Deputies to suspend their con-
versations and t alae their places.
The President then announced that several deputies had
proposed to pass to the order of the (lax motive on the
complaint of 31 Viennet against the Tribune. These
propositions would he discussed in succession, several
orators being inscribed to speak against the order of the
day in any shape.
31 Jollivet proposed the following order of the day
raiotiv:—" Consirtering that the articles in the Tribune
cannot affect any members of the Chamber, the Chamber
passes to the order of the day." The hon. deputy said,
that if he had given way to the feelings of indignation
' anal contempt with which he had perused the infamous
calumnies of the Tribune, he should have worded his
resolution much more strongly ; but he considered that
what he had proposed would be sufficient to mark the
feelings of the Chamber.
Al. Duvergier d'H turanne contended that the proposi-
tion of 31. Jollivet was a compromise unworthy of the
Ch amber ; it was proclaiming the crime, yet shrinking
from punishing the criminal—it was admitting the ma-
lignity of the publication, yet fearing to treat the author
accordiiag to his deserts. An Hon. General had referred
to the conduct of the Constituent Assembly ; but the fruits
of the forbearance of that Assembly was, that assassins-
tion of political opponents was openly inculcated and li
practised.
General Lafayette (from his place) said, that during the
whole time of the Constituent Assembly, only two politi-
cal assassinations were committed, and in both cases the
assassin: were condignly punished.
The President reminded the hon. deputy that the
Chamber of 1833, and not the Constituent Assembly,
was the topic of discussion at present-
Count Jaubert agreed with AI. Duvergier that the
adoption of the proposition of M. Jollivet, would be a
direct acknowledgment that the Chamber thirst not punish
the attacks directed against it. He combated warmly the
idea of any apprehension I eing entertained of the nature of
the defence of the Tribune at the bar of the Chamber, as
the President would, lie urged, be sufficiently alive to his
own dignity, and to that of the Chamber, to prevent any
line of defence inconsistent with what was due to the
throne, and established constitution, being adopted at the
bar. The hon. deputy then txpatiated at great length on
the necessity of putting a stop to the calumnious attacks
crnstantly directed against the majority of the Cliambea
by the press, encouraged by the opposition in the Cham-
ber.—(Murmurs.) He referred to the famous compte
rendu as an anti-parliamentary accusation, brought by the
minority of the Crainber against the majority, which had
received its sanguinary commentary on the sth and 6th of
June. He next, after animadverting on the audacity of
faction, which had lately even led an advocate 'openly to
profess legitimacy in a court of justice, defended the mi-
nisterial press from the charge of tnaking similar attacks
on its political adversaries, and concluded by an energetic
protest against a resolution which should declare that the
licentious part of the press was a power in the state be-
fore which the legal representatives of the nation were to
quail their heads.
This discourse was received with warm applause from
the centres and frequent interruptions from the extremi-
ties, which more than once called forth the energetic re-
probation of the President.
AI. Berryer warmly contended that the allusion of AI.
Jaubert to his conduct on the trial of the Carlo Aiberto
affair was equally unjust and unparliamentary, since the
lact of the judge who presided on th et occasion not
having thought it necessary to notice the " audacity"
of which 31. Jaubert complained was sufficient proof that
he had not exceeded the just bounds of his defence.
M. Odillun Ballot pointed out the danger of engaging
the Chamber in the contest with a journal like the Tribune.
He urged that the opposition made to the proposition was
not in the interest of the Tribune, which desired nothing
so touch as the opportunity of personally insulting the
Chamber, and repeating within the wal s of the le; illative
palace the calumnies with which its columns were filled.
Ile admitted that the order of the (lay motive was a con.
cession, but it was a concession only to the love of order
and peace, to a sentiment of the dignity of the Chamber,
which would be deeply injured by the establishment of such
a contest as was proposed by the Cammittee.
Al. Persil (the reporter), after remarking that eight out
of nine members of the committee had been nominated by
the majorities of the bur aux, after the expression of their
opinion that the editor of the Tribune ought to he sum-
moned to the bar of the Chamber, and that he could not,
therefore, account for the change of opinion which ap-
peared to have been operated, proceeded to inquire whether
it was fitting to inscritie on the banners of the Chamber of
Deputies of France, that it might henceforth be calum-
niated and vilified with impunity. It had been said that
the law which it was sought to apply against the Tribune
was unconstitutional, fur he could not understand the
existence of any unconstitutional law—(interruption from
the extremities)—no existing law could be unconstitu-
tion,l—(Renewed interruptions)—all laws, prior to the
charter of 1830, which were contrary to it, had been
abrogated by the charter itself, anal no law subsequent to
the charter could be unconstitutional.—(Renewed and
inure violent interruption.)
AI. P rail exclaimed, warmly, " These interruptions
and laugher are scandalous !"
M. Dupont de l'Eure— Vous etes un insolent.
This remark gave rise to one of the most violent and
disgraceful scenes of altercation witnessed in the Chamber.
M. Persil appealed to the President for protection ; the
President called 31. Dupont to order, on which 31. de
Tracy' attempted to rush to the tribune, amid the accla-
mations of the cote gauche, but was ordered by the Presi-
dent to return to his place. For several minutes a con-
fused uproar prevailed, the opposition urgina M. de Tracy
forward ; and the centres cheering the President, who at
length, raising his voce to its highest pitch, was braid to
say, " I am here to preserve order in the Cliainb-r, and 1
will take care that no clamour shall prevail against the
President. I have before urged the importance of such a
deliberation as the present being conducted with calmness
arid moderation ; the manner in which the cote gauche
interrupted M. Persil, a man grave from his situation and
Irony his acquirement:, was most disgraceful, and a direct
violation of the liberty of the trilrune. M. Dupont de
l'Eure was in par titular guilty of personal insult to the
orator, and I therefore call him to order. He may now
reply if he likes. M. Persil, who had remained in the
tribune during this episode, now descended from it, and
M. Dupont de l'Eure explained that he had beeu betrayed
into the expression in question by his indignation at the
mariner in which M. Persil had applied the expression
" scandalous" to all his (Al. Dupont's) side of the house ;
he himself had neither spoken nor laughed, and, therefore,
had no personal feeling in the question ; but he felt at the
time, and still considered, that it was " scandalous" in M.
Persil to make use of such an expression.
'fire President—There is this difference between AI.
Persil and 31. Dupont—the former applied a strong ex
pression to those who interrupted him, and they only
could he affected by it ; the latter, on the contrary, de-
liberately and personally insulted the orator, in a manner
unbecoming any one in any place, but espec:ally so in a
legislative ~ssemhiy, anal in to grave a person as M. Du-
pont ate l'Eure. I therefore again call him to order.
The incident here ended, and Al. Persil, returning to
the tribune, completed his discourse in favour of the pro-
position made by the committee to call the editor to tae bar.
The Chenille t' then proceeded to ballot on M. Jollivet's
proposition of the order of the day motive., which was re-
\
jeatad by a majority of 206 against 156. The other
orders of the day motivels will itdiscussed successively.

.4. private letter of the 4•. h instant, from Frankfort
affords us the following further particulars on the dis-
turbances in that city The feelings of indignation
which were excited by the puhlica,loo of the Frankfort
protocols ate welt known, The execution of these un-

constitutional decrees, and the increasing persecution
of the press, had created dissatisfaction ; the unseasonable
measures adopted by the Cabinets of Stutgard and Cassel
contributed to rouse the anger of the nation, when the
people were suddenly informed that the Diet, not content
with what it had done, contemplated a new coup d'ciat—
the suspension of the Chambers for five years, Frankfurt,
as the seat of the Diet and the city of Germany where
the press is under greater restraints than any where else,
where liberty is trampled under foot, where commerce is
ruined by the custom-houses of the states which surround
it,—Frankfort was likely to take a particular share in
the agitation which pervades the states of the Confedera-
tion. List night Robert le Diable was performed. On
coming out of the theatre at half past nine, a vast crowd
proceeded through the street called Zell to the guard-
house of the constables, occupied by 30 soldiers of the
line, and as many police officers. This crowd was headed
by young men in the costume of students, wearing white
scarves. On their arrival before the guard-house, one of
the young men, stepping out of the ranks, harangu,•d the
people, who had collected in great numbers. In this
speeith he expatiated on the oppre.sion of which Germany
was the victim. The people received the speech with
unanimous applause. In an instant guns, pistols, and
sabres were distributed, the guard-house was attacked, and
the prisoners, confined for politic il offences, set at liberty.
The same crowd, having been con,iderably augmented, then
proceeded along the Zeil to the principal guardhouse, at-
tacked it amidst shouts of 'Liberty or Death !' dispersed
the 60 soldiers who occupied the post, and set at liberty
the prisoners, among whom was 111. Mohr, who hail been
confined two years on suspicion of having taken a share in
former disturbances. Whilst blood was flowing on both
sides near the guard-houses, the drums were he Lting
throughout the town to call together the National Guards.
Part of the citizens came in time to prevent the capture
of the arsenal. The troops of the line, amounting to 500
men, came up in haste, and succeeded in retaking the
chief guard-house. 200 soldiers also defended the approach
to the glacis. At 11 o'clock the tumult was at its height.
The people perambulated the streets, utteri' g shouts of
fury ; patrols of cavalry, infantry, and pornpiers were seen
in all directions; the gates of the town were shut, and
even this morning, at ten o'clock, ❑o one was allowed to
come into the town. The conflict was very desperate. One
student received 19 wounds by a bayonet. A prisoner,
attempting to make his escape, was mortally wound-
ed. Many spectators in returning home were either
killed or wounded. It is positively asserted that several
thousand peasants were on the point of entering Frank-
fort. It is also reported that disturbances have taken
place at Hamm, and that fire arms have been made use of.
At half-past 11 one of the burgomasters of Frankfort rode
through the different parts of the city in his carriage,
and inspected the posts. He then proceeded, at the head
of 50 soldiers of the Line and 50 National Guards, to the
tower called the Pfarrthurrn, where they were sounding
the tocsin. It is remarkable that not one of the indivi-
duals who were tolling the bell was arrested.

" P.S. 3 o'CLocx.—lt is generally reported that the
Palace of the Duke of Nassau, at Bieberich, is in flame.
There is no more fighting to -day at Frankfort. The
number of deaths is not yet ascertained. It is s lid that
soldiers have been killed, and 20 wounded. The students
have sustained great loss. It is stated that insurrections
were to break out at Wurtzburg, Cassel, &c. For the
moment. the National Guards of Frankfort have restored
order ; part of them, however, have withheld their aid,
and others refused to fire upon the people. The great
majority of the National Guards have declared their sen-
timents : they say that the blood which has been shed is
to be attributed to the Diet and the Senate, and add, that
in future they will afford assistance to the authorities
only when the just grievances of the people shall have been
redressed.,'

Another letter of the same date says--" It appears cer-
tain that the garrison of Mentz was apprised that dis
turbances wou!d break out at Frankfort. Before they bad
commenced, Austrian troops were on their march for
Hoechst, a town situated half way between Frankfort and
Mentz. These troops have since pushed their vanguard
to the borders of our territory. Is it intended to take
military possession of Frankfort ? Have the disturbances
been fostered by the Cibinets, in order to find pretexts for
such an occupation, and for the promulgation of new pro-
tocols ? These are questions which I cannot decide ; but
it is worthy of remark, that the Ministers of the three
principal Powers of Germany quitted Frankfort some
days back, and that the leaders of the insurrection, instead
of directing the people towards the archives of the Diet, led
them against the guardhouses."

We are assured that the French Ministry, on learning
the events at Frankfort, immediately transmitted ordets
to the French towns on the frontiers, enjoining the Get-
man refugees residing there to remove to the interior of
the kingdom.— Conaitutionnel.

The accounts from the east, received at Paris yesterday,
state that the reinstatement of the Turkish authorities at
Smyrna in their functions was made in consequence of
orders from Ibrahim Paella.

The Augsburg Gazette of the sth instant contains the
following of the 12th ult. from Constantinople:—" The
interpreter of the English Embassy, M. Pisani, who was
charged with a mission to Ibrahim Pacha, has returned
from the Euptian head-quarters. He brought the as-
surance of Ibrahim that he was quite a stranger to the
late events at Smyrna, but as the rebel Emir Effendi evi-
dently acted in concert with the Governor of Magnesia,
lately appointed by lurahitn, it is quite clear that he had
some share in the proceedings."
Extract of a private letter of the 30th ult. from
Vienna The accounts received to-day from the east
are full as alarming as those which have lately arrived
from the sime quarter. If it be true that the Egyptians
have quitted Smyrna, it is because Ibrahim is concentrit-
ing his army, so as to move in two columns by the rou es
of Adrarnity and Broussa, in order to cross the channel of
Constantinople at Scutari. It is said he contemplates a
landing i❑ the Bay of Soros, should he find it imuossilde
to force a passage from Burgas. The town of Smyrna
was absolutely occupied by the Egyptians, but the Viceroy
merely wished to be assured of the attachment of the
place. Our Government, following its usual mystetious
policy, has forbidden any intelligence from the east to be
published, unless under the sanction of the office of the
Chancery."
A letter of the first instant from Madrid says—" The
departure of Don Carlos and the Duchess of Beira has
been made a pretext for serious disturbances at Sar.gossa.
Early in the morning a numerous body of the Royalist
Volunteers assembled from the environs, and united them-
selves with those of the town. Several patroles were
ordere,i out, and the rest of the troops were directed to
remain in their barracks, rea'y to march out at a rno-
inent's notice. Two persons, who were the leaders of
the riot, were arrested and placed in secret confinement.
At two o'clock, after some con•ests, about 200 Royalist
Volunteers forced their way through one of the rates and
fled into the country, uttering seditious cries. The Cap-
tain-General assembled the Royal Curt and the civil
authorities in his own house, anti with one iccord it was•
resolved that all the Royalist Volunteers of the province
should be disarmed. Intelligence of a few hours later an-
nounces that some of the fugitives had come bark, demand-
ing portion, and that 1,200 Royalist Volunteers, had laid
down their arms without offering- tie least opposition."

If we are well informed the negotiations between the
Sultan and Mehemet Ali were taking a more favourable
turn, and Alalimoud had, in consequence, addressed
a letter of thanks to the Russian Autocrat for his inter-
vention, adding that the arrangement which he was on the
point of making with Mehemet Ali, would render measures
of coercion unnecessary. For the same reason Admiral
L.zaieff has been ordered to quit the Bosphorus. Lastly,
the Russian Ambassador at Constantinople had just re-
ceived the news that the Russian troops which were on
their march to Adrianople, had received counter order.
These accounts add that these important events are owing
to the energetic conduct manifested by Admiral Ronson'.
If, as we are assured, these statements are official, ,ve
must believe that the Minister wid immediately publish
them ; but then it must be owned that every thing is
very extraordinary in this affair of the East.
is confirmed that the Government is tesolved to give
the command at Algiers to General Guilleminot, and at
length to establish the Administration of that colony on a
new basis. It is added that General Guilleminot is to be
G.,vernor of all our pos,essions in Africa, and tat the
Keeper of the Seals will immediately think of means to
introduce a judicial system more adapted both to the
wants of the country and to the French laws.
