national character, for which even the glorious deed,, of
the last eight days, and the moderation of the conquerors
in the hour of victory, would offer an insufficient atone-
ment. Enough of blood has been already shed, and to
add to it that of the unconscious and unoffending
whose rights of legitimacy are now thrown as a firebrand
among the people, would infer only the presence of
that weakness and pusillanimity which proceeds fro►u
cowardice and disunion. it was at nine o'clock on

Saturday evening that the King and the Royal family ar-
rived at Rambouillet, attended by a numerous suite, outs:

piling not less than 150 carriages. He was preceded
and followed by a detachment of the Garde du Corps,
who with the other troops which have since been mus-
tered, in the park of the Chateau, are said to amount
to about 4,000 men. The indecision which the King
had exhibited before the arrival of the Dauphiness, and
the sudden determination which he took to quit the

country, at a time when a very different course teas anti-
cipated, was doubtless occasioned by the uncertainty
under which he remained, as to the reception he might

meet with in the south of France, and the intelligence
which must have reached him of the insurrections which

have taken place in Mans and Chartres, and the other
great towns in the direction of La Vendee. As yet I
have heard of no arrival from Rambouillet, but shall

keep my letter open till the latest moment, in the hope or
being able to communicate the intelligence for which all
Paris is at present in a state of feverish anxiety.

Foy it 09C LOC K
A despatch has arrived from Marshal Maison, an-
nouncing that the king has been prevailed on, with his
family, to resume his route for Cherbourg, under the safe
conduct of the commi.,sioners appointed by the Provi-
sionnl Government. This fact may, I believe, be relied
upon, but the rumours by which it is accompanied, as
to the ulterior destination of the family, who have been
so suddenly precipitated from their high estate, are too
confused and contradictory to be entitled to the same
attention. That which is most generally credited is, that
two ships belonging to the United States of America
are at Cherbourg, ready to receive the fallen monarch
and his retinue, but whether to cross the Atlantic, or to
proceed to the shores of Spain or England, is as yet mat-
ter of conjecture. The Duke de Chartres, who now en-
joys the prospect of hereafter succeeding to the sove-
reignity of France, is at this moment making his
public entry into the capital, by the barrier St. An-
toine, at the head of his regiment, attended by a nu-
merous cortege of the sons of the nobility and gentry who
had gone out to meet him, and to grace his arrival. The
deliberations of the Chamber of Deputies to-day are
probably confined to mere matters of preliminary form
and arrangement, so that I have not made any attempts
to be present.

EXTRACT OF A LETTER FROM A Y01:1476 LADY.
PARIS. Aua. Y.

You have, I suppose, received a few lines from Ed-
ward, to tell you of our safety ; we were afraid at that
moment to enter into any particulars of what has oc-
curred here, as all letters were read at the post-office ;
nor shall I now, only as far as regards ourselves, 1 little
thought that I should ever witness a revolution, and
indeed it was a frightful scene, or rather what we heard ;
for we saw nothing during the hotest of the encounter.
When we arrived on the Tuesday evening,* we kne,v
nothing. A man came recommending his hotel, and
saying something to deter us from going to the one
we proposed ; but we did not listen to him. A
friend of the Miss --'s met them and hurried
them off as quickly as possible, and we took a coach
to drive to a hotel in Rue St. Honore,t where
I intended to remain one night. The first thing that
alarmed me, was our being stopped by soldiers.] With
great difficulty we got through the crowds, and when
we came within sight of the hotel, we were obliged to
alight, on account of the barricadoes in the street. I
don't think I ever suffered so much from fright as at
that moment. We were hurried into a place, which
certainly I thought a prison. When we got in, the
people were all in such a state of alarm that they could
scarcely speak, gentlemen and ladies. 'We, however,
soon learnt that the soldiers had fired on the house.
killed one young gentleman, and very severely wounded
two of the waiters. One must lose his arm, in all
probability, and the other the ball entered near his heart,
and was extracted from his back ; and one gentleman
had his head grazed by a ball, so as to bleed profusely.
In short, we arrived at the house only a few minutes or a
quarter of an hour after all this occurred. This outrage
on the part of the military was occasioned by some men
going on the top of the house and throwing down stoned'
on them, for they had previously been called out, on ac-
count of the mobs collecting. They, of course, thought
it came from some one in the house, and they fired. The
people then became infuriated against them, and there
was a regular attack of cavalry and infantry. They were,
however, driven b.tsk by the people, and when we arrived
this was just over ; we only saw the result of it.
The regular canonade did not begin until Wed-
nesday morning. We happened to be in the midst
of the whole, being quite near the Palais Royal
and the Tuileries. The attack lasted unceasingly
for two days. We could hear the halls whizzing past
the windows, and some spent balls fell in the rooms. The
state I was in I can hardly tell, as I was insensible for
some time ; every thing came on me so unexpectedly; I
have not recovered altogether, as you may perceive from
my writing ; my hand still shakes. It has been a great
blessing to me that Edward was with me. His kindness
and attention have been greater than I can express,-3
rare instance of brotherly affection, and has been re-
marked by all around us. You at a distance may imagine
I was more terrified than there was occasion for, but I
assure you I was not singular in this house.
PARIS. AUGUST 4, Two o'Clock, P.M.
The hfoniteur of this day, as well as the other Morn-
ing Journals (which 1 suppose to be in your hands), will
have informed you of the acts of the new Government—
such as the nomination of the Ministers, the Prefects,
Procurators-General, and other functionaries indispen-
sably necessary to move the machine of Administration
brought into play by the memorable revolution we have
experienced. You will see from the Journals, that
the opening Speech pronounced in the Chambers
by the Lieutenant-General of the Kingdom —au
extract of which I transmitted to you yesterday, a
few moments after it was delivered—has not satisfied
all parties. Read Le Temps of this day. The first
article of that paper expresses the most politic opi-
nion of the dissentients. The opposition of the other
Journals is not so consistent, nor founded on such
strong motives. It is a remarkable fact that the people,
the lower classes, the mere mob, who were the real com-
batants, and who triumphed, have, after the victory,
peaceably returned to their labour; and that, conscious
of their incompetence to enter into political controver-
sies, they are in arms, and constitute that very force
which enables society to re-assert its political rights,
whilst it abstains, however, from intermeddling with dis-
