A\OTHER LETTER.

" PARIS, JUNE B.—Things are in a most extraor-
dinary state here ; Paris has the appearance of a City
newly taken possession of by an enemy's force. The
town is filled with troops. All the under part of the
Louvre, where the :range-trees are kept during the
w inter, now contains an immense body of soldiers.
At each window is a cannon pointed, and, as it is
said, -charged with grape Shot. On the 3d there were
strict orders from the Police placarded throughout
the City, forbidding a greater number than three
persons to stop in the streets. In defiance of this,
not only gruupes, but immense crowds assembled in
the vicinity of the Patois du Corps Legislatif, the
Place Louis XV. the Tuilleries, &c. They were
charged by the Gendarmerie and Guards. Some
persons were killed and sever al wounded. Amongst
the former was a Law Student, a young man
of great.promi e. His funeral was expected to have
ken the commencement of a scene of confusion and
terror, and possibly of revolution. So great was the
alarm as to the consequences likely to result from his
funeral, that the father of the unfortunate victim was
offered a large sum of money to allow him to be
buried privately, which he refused. The-body was
followed to the grave by between five and six thou-
sand young men, mostly Law and Medical Students,
the greater number in mourniag, and wearing crape
on the arm. There were three funeral orations pro-
nounced over the grave, but which, of course, have
not been published. It is also said, that the dreaded
cry of Vire la Laerti et Egalite has been shouted
in the distant Fauxbourgs. General arrests have
taken place. I know two Gentlemen myself, who'
have been taken under•the kind care of the Police.
In short, everything announces an approaching storm.
The scenes of Friday and Saturday were renewed on
Monday and Tuesday ; but the Government and
the Police used every exertion to prevent disorders ;
the Garde. Royale and the Gardes du Corps, were
ordered to remain in their barracks ; it will be recol-
lected, that it was the Officers of these two Corps,
dressed in plain clothes, who insulted the Liberal
Deputies, and threatened to murder M. Chauvelin.
!Monday and Tuesday the scene changed, for the
i Friends of Liberty,' notwithstanding the orders of
the Police, assembled in numbers from 10,000 to

15,000, resolved to crush those who had so miscon-
ducted themselves on Friday and Saturday, and thus
fell into the opposite excess. The military was sta-
tioned in great force in all the principal points, the
gates of the Palace were closed, and artillery brought
up to defend it, in case of an attack by the public,
armed with swords, canes, &c. No adversaries ap-1
pcaring for the crowd to combat, they consented to
be driven 'from place to place by the troops like a
flock of sheep. Their cries of Vive le Charte' were
not regarded by the Commanding-Officers as sedi-
tious ; but several did not rest here, but bawled out,
in addition, Down with the Count D'Artois
Down with the Ministers ! Down with the Nobles !'

Down ivith the Priests!'—' Peace to the cottage,
and war to the castle, 4c.'—The Gens-d'armes made
about forty prisosets; but the great mob called out,
Let us go to the Faubourgs and went riotously
shouting the above expresiens along the Boulevards.
They hoped, on arriving at the Faubourg
.St. An-
toine, that the mob of this quarter would join them,
but instead of it they found three regiments drawn
op in order of battle; they instantly dispersed, and
scampered off in different directions."
