TleTS: anu the uetaIS Oh tnlS conference
show the great moderation by which thu
leaders Of the popular party were still an
mated. They proposed only the repea
Of the obnoxious Ordinances, togethe
with the dismissal Of the obnoxious min
isters; and will it be believed, they wer,
not only rejected, but contumeliously re-
jectedi When Marmont, who consent
ed to become the bearer of these propo
sails, returned with the answer of the
King, nj. LATTE exclaimed, "Then the
civil war is begunw From this moment
all idea Of compromise seems to have
been abandoned by the popular party
the tri-colored flag was hOisted on the
Tuilleries; the ensigns ofthe King were
every where pulled down or defacsd:
whilst new impulse was given to the
popular enthusiasm. 1t is stated by the
Messenger des Chambers that the crown
has been offered to the Duke of Orleans;
and, if another ON dit of the same paper
be correct, it is more than probable that
the offer has not been refused, as, ac-
cording to the last on dit, the Duke OF
Chatres, his son, and one of the most
popular young men in France, has gone
over with his regiment to the Constitu-
tional party. In the mean time, letter,
which accompanies the express, says that
the fighting was renewed on Friday with
more obstinacy and carnage than had
distinguished any former engagement of
which that heroic city had been the the
atre since the commencement ofthose
troubles; that the Kings troops were at
last repulsed at all points, and il signifi-
cantly adds, that if 100, 900 men were to
renew the attack, they would be rcpuls-
ed, such was the invincible courage of
the inhabitants We shall add only one
remark to what we have stated, that from
the obstinate rejection of all terms of ac-
commodation by the King, we can only
come to the conclusion, that his reason
has totally deserted him, or that he Is act
ing under foreign influence; and we cam
not conclude without expressing n hope
that our own Cabinet (if such influence
prevaiD is not mixed up with it, either di-
rectly or indirectly; for we should say,
wo to the English Minister whose name
should be found connected with so black
an intrigue! an intrigue, as dangerous TO
England an its remote, as to France in its
Immediate, results.
The Journal DIES DIats contains the
Declaration of the Deputies, signed by
upwards of sixty, protesting against the
measures which the adviers ofthe Crown
have lately caused to beproclaimcd for
the overthrow of the legalsystcm ofelcc-
ton and the ruin of theliberty of the
press.
