Oit OFR OF rue DAY, Avatorr 29.

In the night between the ?Wised '2Bth of August,
about one o'clock in the morning, a patrole of the
National Guard, proceeding from the post of St.
J‘iseph, occupied by the 3d legion, in conformity
with the Order of the Dar from the Governor of
Paris, on the part of the Allies, arrested- two Aus-

Irian corporals. accused of having dangerously w (fund-
ed a private individual. Other military men of the
same nation, who wished to rescue their comrades,
were also arrested, and set at liberty after a short
explanation, which confirmed them of their error.—
In this service the patrole was supported by a de-
tachment, from the post of the Stair, furnished by the
•6th legion.
Notwithstanding the care taken to f.xplaiti in Ger-

nifty to the two corporals, that it was only intended
sto take them before their own Chiefs, these soldiers,
'no doubt in a stale of intoxication, and not masters
of themselves, made an obstinate resistance to the
National Guordi, and slightly wounded Messrs.
Leroux and Garin, chasseurs of the 4th legion.
This resistance, a ith the wounds and the clamours
•nf the multitude, could not, however, alter the cool.
itess, firmness, and- moderation of the national
gourd, which, without ill•treatitug the Austrian cor-
porals, took to the General Staff, where, on
the demand of au Aid-de-Camp of the Austrian
army, they mere given up to a detachment of the
party on duty at PI ince Sthwartzetiberg's hotel.
The national guards have every reason to be satis-
fied with the conduct of the Aid-de-Camp and the
Commandant of the Austrian post, who did not he-
sitate to ddottit tint the conduct of the corporals was
reprehensible in h.ar•ing been in a public place after
the time fixed for retirement to their homes ; in hay-
ing struck en unarmed man with their aims ; and,
above all, in having resisted the national guards,
whose only object was to restore orderl and to with-
draw even them from the ■ssembtages that were in-
at the si;ht of bloodshed ; and they added,
that they considered it a point of honour to co-ope-
rate with the national guards in maiotaioiag the pub-
lic peace.
