FRENCH PAPERS.

(From the Paris Papets of Saturday.)
M. Jacques Lafitte had an audience of the king on Thurs-
day at half past one o'clock. When the King was informed
that M. Lafitte had come to the palace, although he was then
receiving a great number of deputations that had arrived to
hangratulate him on his escape from the danger by which he
been threatened, he showed the greatest impatience to see
him, and as soon as he entered went to meet him, and con-
versed with him in the kind terms of old friendship, which nei-
ther time nor political dissensions had been able to efface.
The Queen and the Duke of Orleans also received the hon.
deputy in the most cordial manner.
Girard's condition continues to improve. Yesterday morn-
ing, though, he dad passed; a restless night his fever had
sensibly abated. In the evening his medical attendants en-
. tertained a belief that be would recover from his wounds. At
moment while he had a suspension of his pains, one of his
attendants said—" But still, no doubt, you cannot, under
any circumstances, escape your fate." To which he re-
plted," bah' llf I had not had the stupidity to
wound myself, you would not now have had me in your
clutches." It would appear from a letter addressed by
13r. Montazeau to the Gazette des Tribuneaux, that the
infernal machine was not constructed by Girard, and that the
Party Who furnished it to him intended that it should effect his
truction. The Doctor, after stating that he had carefully
in_amined the machine, observes that he found on three of the
rirrels placed on that side where the person firing them was
Stand the stamp rebut (condemned), and adds:—" The
three condemned barrels burst, as was intended to be the case,
By the combination which anticipated the certain death of the
Person charged to execute the crime, with a view to destroy
all proof of accomplices, and. thus annihilate the inquiries and
InvestigA ations of justice."
commissary of police went on Thursday to Girard's apart-
ment, and took a minute description of the room in which the
machine was fixed. " Several other persons who resided not far
from the house were arrested. The fact of his being suffered
1° "copy the lodging in the absence of all furniture is accounted
or by the circumstance that, though his rent was 400 f. per
annum, he had paid six months in advance. We learn that
Girard's family is well known at Lodeve, and that he, who at
tbe time of the Royalist reaction in the South, in 1815, was
about 20 years of age, was one of the most zealous and violent
Partisans.
We understand that a driver of a fiacre has been found, who
dOelares that he drove to the house on the Boulevard du
TemPle a person with a heavy poatmanteau. Being taken to
see Girard, he identified his person and clothes, although he
!l'as asleep, and it was not thought proper to wake him. We
4aVe not been able to learn whence he came with the port-
manteau. On Tuesday, a few moments before the explosion,
and near the spot, a young man whistled loudly three times at
intervals. He was immediately after apprehended, and con-
veyed to the Prefecture of Police, upon suspicion of having
given signals to the assassin. A man named Boroton, who
in his
been received into the hospital of St. Louis, with a wound
his thigh, having fallen under suspicion, has been twice in-
terrogated, and at length transferred to the Conciergerie.
some say that he was wounded very near the house, and others
state that it was within the louse.
The horse which the King rode on Tuesday at the review
died yesterday of his wounds.
l When the news of the late horrible attempt reached ()r-
-earm on the 29th ult., in the morning, the general gaiety
was changed into as general mourning. Tricoloured flags
c,overed with crape were displayed from almost all the win-
nows ; but when the proclamation of the Prefect of the De-
partment, announcing that the King was safe, was issued, a
gre
Spontaneous acclamation of " Vive le Roi !" burst forth, and
for those that bad fallen was for the moment suspended:
hinuiar demonstrations of feeling were made in all they other
!owns at the same distance from Paris where the sad news
had been received.
We understand that warrants have been issued for the arrest
of M. Scheffer editor of the National; M. Eugene Briffaut,
tme of the writers in the Figaro, and M. Bergeron, who was
housed of being an accomplice in the attack upon the King's
by a pistol, near the Pont Royal.
We hear that M. Bohain, chief editor of the Figaro, was
arrested yesterday, and conducted to the Prefecture of Police.

...At about 11 o'clock on Thursday morning, seven young men,
_allwearing the dress generally adopted by the Republicans,
pwpeat towards the bridge at Neuilly, shouting "A bas Louis
I,4lllPpe Vice la Republique!" The Quarter-Master of
un Gendarmes of Neuilly followed them, and with the assist-
bene of the inhabitants arrested them all. While they were
ag conducted to a place of' security, two other young men
