LATEST PROM PARIS.

During the whole of Sunday no one was permitted to
pass through the streets of Paris. No windows are allowed
to be opened, and no person is allowed to stand at them.
A report is current that the insurgents are in possession of
the Halle aux Vins, and have poisoned the wines, in order
to destroy the troops and the guards.
PARIS, SUNDAY, 5 P M

The delay allowed the insurgents in the Fitubou:g Si. Antoine
to surrender having expired without any reply, the operations
immediately commenced. The first barricade was vigorously
attacked and carried, but not without considerable slaughter
on the side of the assailants. Colonel Baynaud, of the 48th re-
giment of the line, and several other officers, were killed. Ge-
neral Boquet, of the Engineers, arrived at the Place de la Bas-
tille at twelve, with the firemen and sappers. Some houses were
blown up, and several barricades thus turned were captured
without loss. On some points the insurgents had dug trenches,
against which the artillery was unavailable. They fired from
within, and, on the approach of the troops, escaped through
passages opened in the cellars of the houses. A large body sal-
lied from the suburb towards noon, entered St. Louis, and
formed a barricade of the Pont des Tournelle, which was being
repaired. They were there kept in check by troops stationed in
the wine stores on the opposite side, and were actually placed
within two fires. The enclosure of St. Lazare was re-occupied
in the morning by the insurgents, who carried away ten small
pieces of artillery belonging to the Chateau Rouge, which they
loaded with Stones and pieces of broken bottles. On the Quay
de la Megisserie some ruffians fired from a window on a batta-
lion of troops of the line, and escaped by a back door in the
street. Others were, at the same time, erecting a barricade
close by, in the Rue de Bethizy ; but a patrol of National
Guards dispersed them, and they fled, throwing their arms in
the streets. A battery of artillery had been placed on the hill
of Montmarte, and measures were adopted to prevent the in-
surgents from gaining possession of that important position.
On the south side of the river the insurrection was completely
quelled.
The insurrection loses ground on the north side.
M. Flocon announced that Paris is abundantly supplied with
provisices.
At two o'clock it was announced that a resolution had been
taken by General Cavaignac to bombard Montmartre. Several
places in the Clos St. Lazare and its environs were set on fire
by the insurgents.
At one o'clock firing was taking place in the Rue St. Denis ;
at the passage du Grand Corf shots were fired from the windows
of the houses.
The President of the National Assembly, at its sitting to-day,
announced that the left bank of the Seine was completely in
the hands of the military, but it was afterwards stated the island
of St. Louis was in the hands of the insurgents. It is said to
have been ascertained that the number already killed is up.
wards of 6,000 persons.
M. Lagrange attempted to go to the insurgents, for the pur-
pose, as he said, of inducing them to lay down their arms, but
the National Guards refused to allow him to pass. The office
of the Minister of Commerce has been searched by the authori-
ties, and 30,000 francs in gold removed.
The firing is going on without intermission, and they are un-
dermining the Clos St. Lazerre, with the intention of blowing
it up.
The sitting of the Asssembly was resumed at half-past three,
when, a member ascending the tribune to give an account of
fresh successes on the part of the National Guard, M. Duclerc
rose to condemn the too congratulatory expressions of the
speaker, saying that on both sides the fighting had been carried
on with but too much obstinacy and courage.
An explosion of cries of " Order " and " Vive la Garde
Nationale." _ . _

M. Duclerc then said he only meant to express his deep re-
gret for the effusion of blood.
M. de Larochejacquelin supplicated the members to give an
open denial to the words attributed to them,—" Malheur aux
vaincus." These words were followed by a scene of extra-
ordinary tumult in the Chamber, and M. de Larochejacquelin
was obliged to leave the tribune.
M' Ducoux said that lie was the bearer of most satisfactory
news. A great number of insurgents had acknowledged their
error, and laid down their arms. It was no longer possible for
them to hold the barricades, for the engineers had now cut a
way from house to house, so that the barricades fell into their
hands with facility. Several barricades had accordingly fallen,
and there could be no doubt that the affair was rapidly ap-
proaching an end.
Some sharp words ensued in the passages, M. Luneau ad-
dressing reproaches to M. Louis Blanc. M. Raynal, who was
one of the foremost in reproving the words of M. de Laroche-
jacquelin, was about to come to blows with one of his col-
leagues, when the would-be combatants were quickly separa-
ted, and the sitting was adjourned, de facto, until five o'clock.
At that hour it was again resumed.
