PARIS, Mar s.—The most noble institution, perhar,
of the whole Revolution, was that of the National Guard'
Its origin was pure and conservatory; it sprung out of the
requirements of the public safety, in the midst of the seen°
so unwonted, and at the same time, so terrible, of the 12th,
13th, and 14th July, 1789. It was in the name o
menaced property, of personal safety, threatened with
danger, that there sprung up, as it had been by miracle,
from the very bosom of the Parisian populace, that soldier'',
which wished for liberty without convulsions, and reform
without crisis, and without disorder. It was composed °f
the whole of the moderate and honourable part of the
Parisian citizens, and in the first days of popular exaltation
the National Guard appeared unceasingly, as a protective
genius, to defend the factions from each other, to save the
Throne from the errors of the multitude, and the people
from the treacherous machinations of the Councillors of the
Throne.
After Mass, his Majesty granted a particular audience to
the Duke of Dalmatia, the Marquis de Chasseloup, the
Duke of St. Aignan, the Count of Antichamp, the Count,
of Meulau, Peers of France; and Viscount Kergarion,
Deputy.
At eight o'clock in the morning, his Royal Highness the •
Dauphin reviewed in the Champ de Mars, the first regiment
of the Cuirassiers of the Guard, and the regiment of the
Lancers. His Royal Highness was received, on entering
the Champ de Mars, by the Duke de Reggio, at the heat
of the staff of the Royal Guard.

is a spent blow of the State. When a regiment.
Plat's, MAY 5.--The disbanding of the National Guard
is dis-
banded, an existence is destroyed—the soldiers are dil
parsed, the colours are burned : here there is no such
thing ; the Government simply declares, that it'casts front
it a force which was part of its power and of its security'-
This is a caprice which may surprise—at the most, a
menace, which may awaken dislikes and no more. After
breaking the National Guard, the Minister declared neat
day in the Itionitcur, that he was about to inquire why ,-
Pe
had done so, and the day after he declared, that to seek o 0
motives for his conduct, was too laborious a task,
and that
he renounced it. France does not participate in such rash'
near. does not agitate herself but when in good
earnest; ; or if she welcomes a promise with precipitation,
she does not do that honour to a menace. The menace
held out, owes its weight to the feelings that called it forty'
aid to the results that may issue from it. In such grot
conjectures, it belongs to wisdom to wait—to judge.--t°,
look to the future—and that is the present conduct of
France. The solemn silence of the two tribunes, testifies
what is concealed by this welcome of the whole of a nation'
The Chambers have done well to be silent, for to 'Peak
were not sufficient, and the time of acting is not yet cane'
