NSURRECTION IN FRANC

A telegraphic despatch, published in Saturday's Times,
as to the disaffection manifested among the workmen in
Paris, caused much uneasiness. These men appeared
likely to be exceedingly troublesome in consequence of
their inability to find employment, and the following
movement by the executive commission. Pursuant to
their termination to diminish the number of ouvriers, and
the danger which their presence in such masses in Paris
threatened to the public peace, the Government directed
that a first draught of 3000 of them, inhabitants of the
provinces, should be obliged to leave town for their
homes on Thursday. They were supplied with money for
their start, and with feuilles de route—orders for board
and lodging at stated points of the journey. They left
town certainly, but they halted immediately outside the

barriers, where the wine is -six sous cheaper than in the
city, and there they spent a portion of the day and a large
share of their travelling expenses. About 3 o'clock a
body of those who had left by the barrier de Fountaine-
bleau, amounting to 400, returned into town, and paid a
visit to the Executive Government at the talace of the
Luxembourg. They were received by M. Marie, who
assured them that the Government were anxiously con-
sidering their claims. This they went to report to the
workmen who were still dissAisfied, and commenced
Down with Marie ; " " Down with the As-
_ Vive Napoleon." A body of at least 5000
workmen with a flag marched to the quay of the Hotel
de Ville, and thence to the Faubourg du Temple, with
the intention, it was thought, of forming a junction with

sembly .;

the workmen there. The. National Guards Were privately
summoned at their houses to be ready to march, if re-
quired. For several days, amid ti 11.% quiet that prevailed,
the clubs have not been idle in organising a very serious
disturbance. On Friday the National Guards turned out
and d"

istinguished themselves honourably. They suffered
much, but had few killed. M. Aurial, a banker at Havre,
was killed. The insurgents now commenced erecting
barricades at the Portes St. Denis and St. Martin, &c.,
when the conflict commenced. A body of some 25 men,
commanded by a captain, attacked aformidable barricade

. ,
at the Porte Bt. Martin. The people made a stout--
re-
sistance, and the fighting was still going on, when the
captain climbed the barricade, leaped down on the oppo-
site side, and fought hand to hand with the insurgents.
The National Guards followed their commander, and the
barricade was finally carried and destriwpd bra-

a hard coati',
Whilst this was going on, t

in which many were killed and wounded.
