BOURDEAUX, MAY

The following are some details of an agrair which
has lately takep place here :—On the 4th, at a short
distance from the city, some men, hired by the dis-
aff.:cted, assembled a place called Vincennes, and
drank freely ; they amounted, it is said, to about
200 in number. This lions:, kept by a mem!3er of
what is called the Brassart's company, had been al-
ready marked out as a place of rendezvous; and, in
consequence, a picquet of ten men of the 62d regi-
ment was fixed in Its vicinity. About four o'clock
this cotlected rabble began to cry rive Roi I and to
insult the picquet. The soldiers Ind hold of two of
,these en!uttated beings, hot were assaulted by their
cent; anions with sticks and stones. The soldiers
disp:ayed much patience, but at last fired in sell-
defence, killing two and wounding three others very
s:.verely. The rebels immediately dispersed. Firm
and ;modem measures have been taken to maintain
order, and counteract the plans of the disaffected.
Count Bois)), d'Anglas, the Emperor's liettaordi-
nary Commissioner has, on this (neer:ion, issued the
following oi der ;
" Considering that the events which have just
passed in the suburbs of this city, and which no au
thority could either foresee c r prevent, must afflict
all good citizens, and eNcite all the solicitude of tt
just and paternal Government, and of those to whom
it has confided a portion of its power
•s Considering that it is impossible any longer to
shut our eyes to the criminal•prajccts cf agitators aid
enemies of public order —that the frightful design
which they have conceived of exciting civil war and •
all the evils of anarchy in a city long remarkable for
the mild mannets of its inhabitants, tneir concord and
reciptocal kindness, can no longer be doubted;
" Ciinsideting that it is a sacred duty on the part
of the derositarics of public authority, to repress by
all legal means such tal4l attempts, and exercise
salutary severity against those who are guilty of tam,
we inder and enact as tOIIoWS
" Art. t. All tumultuous arsemblagcs are prohibited . they
s!i ill be saputed criminal, unless they dtsp.•rse at the first sum-
mons of an agent of wit [aunty; and hi that case they shall be
dissipated by an armed force. Those who; form part ut them,
and shall hot retire when required, shall be arrested and brought
before the tribunals, to be tried according to law.
s. Leery person who shall publicly indulge iu sediTious cries.
incitements to revolt, or clamours tending to Arm the citizens
whist each pther, shall be arrested and brought before the tri-
bunals, in order to be tried and punished according to the exi-
gency of 'kr case.
" Ihe General commanding the military force in Bourdeaux,
and the olcei sof gendarmerie, are invited, and if need be, 1 gi-
got-eel to appoint pinnate, to secure the maintenance of public
order wherever threatened,. and particularly in this city and
suburbs."

1111: MAYOR OF HOURDEAUX TO HIS FELLOW-CITIZENS.

4• Bortlelais, when I was raised by the noperor to
the honourable fuHctions which I exercise, it was my
duty to recollect, that the authority with which I was
clothed is wholly paternal. In this view, it suits my
grey hairs—above all, it suits my heart, which has
never ceased feeling a desire to be useful to you, and
to merit your attachment. _

66 My Clear fellow-citizens, listen then to my voice ;
it will stop you on the brink oftfie precipice whither
obscure aliit.itors would lead you..
66 Tio tomtit.* of civil war are brandished among
you ; the aid of the foreigner, always jealous of out
glory and opulency, i. publicly invoked. Sinister
views are propagated with perfidious art ; disastt'ous
revolts are accreditedl.the intentions of the august
Ci,iet id the State are calumniated ; the best cult's-
itshc.l. reputations are aspersed.; the purest intentions
perverted.

" D., you participate in this furious and guilty de-i
tirium ? Reflect, appearances may seem against you.
You listen with iiiduterence to the discourses of an-
archy, instead of rejecting them with contempt ; and'
the worl.ing class, that interesting portion of the city,
too suscepoule of errors and lively impressions, aban•
dons itself to excesses which disturb public tranquil-
lity, and of which the results must be fatal.
4or some day past a gloomy
,fermentation has
displayed itself in acts of viokime, yesterday espe.'
tidily, which have afflicted all peaceable catifens and
your magistrates. "
superior authority is taking measiles, prompt,
severe, and of which the success is Cettain.' Prevent
their execution, and aid your magistrates in prevent-
ing their netsssiv,.by•incisliating with them peace,
un on, oblivion of the past, and the hope of a !lapin
luturty.

effect of a long war. What have they now to fear F
What have they not to hope ? Unite then, to bring
tern back to their natural sentiments and charact.l.
Tell them especi.lly that those who seek to mislea..:
them, will abandon them in the hour of danger ;
this was always the conduct of agitators, and that i
is high time to prevent calamities, of which the ide,.
is dreadful to my heart and to all the friends of t•tdc:
and the laws.
