REVOLUTION IN FRANCE.
The ordinances of the King which are
published on our first page produced the
effect Which, might have been anticipated,
They kindled the public mind to its high

public papers of Paris, almost without ex
ception, expressed themselves in terms
which showed tnat they were pre- pnred for
. desperate conflict. The following are
extracts:

VIOLATION OF THE CHARTER
ABOLITION OF THE LAWS
Violence has triumphcd in the councils of
the King. The constitution Of tho State

by the crime Of the Ministers, in the pro-
visional situation from which the charter
had saved it on the 4th Of June, 1914.
The legal title, which would legitimate
the raising of the taxes in 1881, has just
been destroyed.
The crime for which Ministers are 60
ing to answer before the nation, has been
characterized by the Royal Court of Pari.
in the sentence passed upon us with re
spect tn the Breton subscription. In con.
demning Us for having published that doc =.
