morning; those of the preceding day were receiv-
ed last night On the opening of the business in
the Chamber of Deputies on Saturday, M LATTE
Iirupatfentiy rose, and in an animated tone expa
tiated on the wanton ontrages committed by the
military in dispensing the mob, and particularly OF
the preceding evening, in support Of which he read
a letter signed by several inhabitants OF thesnegh
borhood of Post St. Denis, stating that NUMBERED
persons had been wounded, and one killed, by til,
troops in thai quarter. During the reading of ibis
tletter, considerable agitation was produced in he
Assembly by M. De Corceiles, exclaimng lie Voa,
and producing half sabre, which had been broken

NJ Lafitte proceeded at considerable length, and
observed that he did not approve Of riotous assem-
fbiages, but was il astonishing that citizens who
failed in having their wishes attended to in the
Chambers, should seek 10 express them, as far as
possible, IN the most legal way. Several voices
called cut g Reveal. i not legal" NJ. LATTE

tumult was nov excited in the Chamber, and some
incorporate imputatons were exohanged)
M. de Montcalm said il was false to assert there

had heard them. M. LATTE and Corcelles insisted
that the seditous expressions were uttered bypo

capital was not free--tbat the very Deputies, in

siding, increased every hour" Yesterday was

Perrier supported Nj Lafitte's assertions, and his
demand upon Ministers to explain the conduct Of
those who acted under their orders. The Keeper.
of the Seals charged the popular ferment in the
capital upon the systematic inhammatory speeches
OF the Liberals in the Chamber. sRebellion,D he
continued, :" has been prepared and organised !; and

one personally. NJ b Constant insisted on speak

M Constant at length obtained hearing, when

ourassiers cutting down men. women and children
