SERIOUS RIOTING IN PARIS.

DESTRUCTION OF PROPERTY.

ATTEMPTED ERECTION OF A BARRICADE.

PARIS, FRIDAY.
Things in Paris have got from bad to worse. The lapse
of time which generally assuages the excitement of a mob
has served only to increase the violence of the extraordinary
mob which inhabits Paris. If the authorities, as many think,
have purposely got up these riots, they have succeeded to
perfection. If they have been actuated by no other
motive than a desire to preserve order, their manoeuvres
have been singularly ill-chosen, and signally unfortunate.
The excited crowd of Monday was badly treated, and the
result has been a serious disturbance on Wednesday and
a tremendous riot last night.
The business of the evening may be said to have com-
menced on the Boulevard Montmartre about seven o'clock.
The city had been uneasy all day ; a row at night had
been the confident prediction of everybody ; and at seven
o'clock accordingly the first signs of the performance
began to manifest themselves. All round the city
the billstickers of the Prefecture had been busily engaged in
affixing the proclamation of the Prefcctof Police, exhort-
ing the people to moderation, and informing them that the
law of 1848 would be strictly enforced. At the same time
other placards, clandestinely put up, and speedily torn
dawn by the police, made their appearance in different
quarters. One of them was to this effect:—
Fellow-citizens, do not give way; the struggle has
commenced. Let us bring about the triumph of the
people's sovereignty."
As one journal facetiously remarks, the author of this
effusion had forgotten to append his name and address.
But such proclamations, accompanied as they were on
the preceding evening, by cries of " Aux Tuileries !"
have a decidedly ugly look. By eight o'clock,
earlier than before, the Boulevard Montmartre was com-
pletely filled with people, and all the shops and cafes were
preparing to close. No police were to be seen, but
it was well known that a strong body of troops
were in readiness at the Mairie of the Rue Drouot.
Nothing was done up to nine o'clock except in
the way of increasing the crowd. It grew and
grew until the Montmartre Boulevard would positively
hold no more, and the mob Was thrust gradually into the
adjoining streets and passages. It was clear that this
great crowd was composed entirely of intending spectators,
who awaited the appearance of the performers. Nobody
had come to do anything ; they had all come to enjoy
the sedition got up by their neighbours. The assembly
was an audience, without actors, and, as might be
imagined, so much waiting for the uplifting of the curtain
soon became very dull. Nevertheless, the crowd continued
to augment, until at last there must have been from

50,000 to 70,000 people in the immediate neighbourhood.
Some cries were heard, the " Marseillaise " was here and
there struck up by some solitary adventurer, but for a
long time no signs of rioting were visible. And uh:e*
The police, who had so aggravated affairs on preeedin„
eveniugs, kept back. For a long :inn: not a argent %vas to
be seen throughout this gre,J, 1113,S of people.
But about half-past nine a gang of rioters made its
appearance. It was of considerable proportions, and con-
sisted of apprentices, workmen, gamins, and, I noticed, a
certain number of young men of the middle class. It
spread throughout the Boulevard Montmartre to the
Boulevard des Italiens, striking up the " Marseillaise" and
shouting "Vive Rochefort !" At the sound of
the Repub:ican hymn every shop and cafe yet
left open in the neighbourhood were closed as if by
magic. This snob held possession of the boulevards ot
about half-an-hour. They sang the " Marseillaise " with
great spirit and effect, shouted obnoxious cries, and did r
little—but very little—smashing. The police now thought
it time to interfere. A strong force, supported by the
cavalry and infantry of the Paris Guard, cleared the Eou•
le :ard, forcing back the people into the iir;acent streets.
The same tl.4s.g was done in the Place de l'llOtel de Ville.
About half-past ten a vigorous attempt was made to upset
an omnibus at the corner of the Rue de la Banque, but it
came to nothing. These attempts to block up the streets
were numerous, and not a little significant.
Affairs did not mend as the evening wore on. The
Boulevard was soon crowded again, and its appearance at
about a quarter-past eleven was very singular. All the
upper windows of the shops and cafes were crowded with
the inmates, drinking wine, smoking cigars, and quietly
watching the scenes below. The crowd was great, but free
passage was now allowed to vehicles, and many ladies in
evening dress passed tlircu,gh to look at what was going on.
And yet by this time the excitement had greatly increased,
the mob was putting out lights, smashing lamps and
windoWs, and looking with an envious eye at the kiosks.
At half-past eleven there was another irruption of dis•
reputables. A trocp of hb sut a hundred and fifty indi-
viduals in blouses and caps, mostly young, and armed
with stakes and long bars of wood, entered the
Boulevard and commenced very active opera-
tions. There was not a policeman on the
•spot. • This troop entered, singing and shouting " Vive
Rochefort !" and " Vive la Lanterne ! " and imme-
diately proceeded to the illogical work of breaking
all the lanterns's within reach. They managed
to get one side of the Boulevard in utter darkness,
and then, amid great excitement, proceeded to break and
upset almost all the kiosks from Montmartre to the Rue
Richelieu. The work of destruction was extremely
rapid, and the din throughout the district terrific. The
gang speedily increased in number, the crowd looking on
and applauding. One solitary individual only attempted
a cry of " Vive PEmpereur !" and this adventurer got
himself into imminent danger through the experiment.
When all the kiosks were down the rioters commenced
with the seats. Many were broken to pieces and the frag-
ments strewn in the middle of the street, and several trees
were mutilated in the attempt to dig them up. Then
numerous tablesbelonging tothe cafeswereseized; inshort,
every thing that could be destroyed was broken up and
thrown on the heap of debris. When this became suffi-
ciently largo, the rioters attempted to build up a barricade
with it, and they did in effect construct an obstacle in
two places, about two feet high. But this work did not
f" go on long. The wanton destruCtion of the mob inblouses
excited the indignation of the more respectable crowd, who
seemed to repent of its former ill-advised applause.
The work of devastation was at its height, and it seemed
probable that much more serious destruction would have
ensued, when suddenly a body of the Paris Civil Guard,
horse and foot, made its appearance, amid the applause
of the more respectable portion of the multitude. The
rout of the rioters was soon complete. The trumpet was
sounded, the troops fixed bayonets, and the rioters dis-
persed in all directions ; not, however, without making
some show of fight. They got a cord around
the railings of the Varietes, and attempted to pull
them down. They were prevented only by the courage and
address of the porter, who cut the rope three times, and
finally frustrated the mob. Had the roughs been able to
arm themselves with these formidable bars, the cons°.
quences might have been indeed serious. This was the
last manifestation of moment in this quarter. The troops
were on the alert all night, and indeed their service.
were needed, for the mob continued to shew itself at
intervals. A little more glass was broken, and one or two
kiosks which had escaped the earlier ruin fell victims
after midnight ; but nothing very serious transpired.
At four o'clock this morning a large number of workmen
were brought up to repair the devastation. They
found ample employment. The Boulevard Montmartre
was a complete wreck. The pavement was torn up in
several places, twenty-nine kiosks had been damaged,
and nine utterly destroyed, the seats were half broken
down, the trees broken and disfigured, the fronts of the
shops mutilated. The aspect of affairs chewed clearly what
kind of mob had been at work. If the intelligent
adversary of the Empire thought fit to employ force, he
would never break down the buildings and property of in-
offensive people. The mob which attempted to form a
barricade last night was composedof that cruel and brutal
section of the populace which is always ready for mis-
chief and destruction, no matter who may be the sufferers
by it. The aspect of the Montmartre Boulevard this morning
will do something to bring Paris to its senses. A riot which
does no injury to the Emperor, and the cost of
which is paid chiefly by a few poor newspaper
vendors, is a cowardly performance, which can hardly be
sanctioned by the intelligent portion of the Paris populace.
The unhappy shopkeepers of the Boulevard Montmartre,
who are obliged to shut up at eight o'clock every evening,
are inquiring in consternation when these tumults are
likely to come to an end.
Blontmartre was not the only quarter of Paris where
disturbances took place. A large crowd gathered on the
Place de la Bastille, and kept pretty quiet until half-past
nine, when some serge:las-de-vine attempted to clear
the square. They were greeted with a shower
of stones, and the assistance of the Guard was
found necessary. No further trouble occurred here.
At Belleville there was a riot only less serious than that
at Montmartre. There was a panic in this quarter,
caused by the appearance of some soldiers, who were
simply burying a comrade. The panic degenerated into
a riot. the windows and fronts of the shops were broken,
and all the kiosks overturned. The establishment of a coach
proprietor was completely destroyed. In another district
hetween Belleville and Menilmontant, a band of roughs
of considerable magnitude was formed. This mob was
composed entirely of men in blouses, and was beaded by
an old fellow with a lag, grey beard, and a cane in his
hand, who seemed to e.amnand the obedience of the
crowd. Two shops were assailed by this mob, and com-
pictely sacked. Windows, lamps, and such demolishable ,
articles were broken in all directions.
The police and troops got the upper hand of the mon
all over the city shortly after midnight. But the streets
were not deserted until daybreak ; for such is the nature
of the Parisian that ho will ruts the risk of injury or
imprisonment rather than miss a sight of this kind. As
to the arrests, they amount to several hundreds, but how
many cannot be ascertained at present.
