REVOLUTION N
 FRANCE.

NEw-YoRK, [OLserver.1 Sept. 8.
 By the arrival at New-YOrk of the ship Hibernia, from Liverpool, London papers have been received to August Sd.
 l They bring accounts of surprisingly sud den, bloody and complete revolution in France of the flight of the King and his Ministers from Paris-and the formation of new gov. ernment under the Duke of Orleans. The late election resulted. as our readers know, in the return of an overwhelming majority ol | liberals to the Chamber of Deputies. The King and his Ministers, instead of yielding to this expression of the popular will, resolved l to brave it, and relying on the army, issued ordinances restricting the liberty of the press, l disfranchising the great body of the electors, and ordering new election. These insane proceedings reused the indignation of the French people, and led to the bloody scenes which We record balow. We narrate the events in the order of their occurrence.
 Monday, July 26.-The King with bold ness and insanity unparalleled in the annals of 1 the world, issued three ordinances, which ap- peared in the MOniteur of this date. By the first ordinance, which bears, as usual, the roy al signature, and is cOuDtersigned by all his ministers, the liberty of the press is suspend ed, whilst the suspension is marked by unac- customed rigor. By the second ordinance, which is only countersigned by Count Pey- ronnet, as Minister of the Interior, the Cham Der of Deputies is dissolved. By third ordi- nance, to which, in like manner. the counter signature of all the ministers is affixed, the present law of election is annulled, and new law substituted, by which only deputies of departments are to sit in the new chamber, if it ever meet.
 These decrees were introduced in the Mon- iteur by report of the Ministers to the King, in which they profess to place before his eyes view of the internal situation of the country, and to point out the dangers of the periodical press. This document is of considerable length. and we only afford space for a few extracts from it. The Ministers say:
 "An active, ardent, indefatigabie malevo- lence labors to ruin all the foundations of or- der, and 10 snatch from France the happiness 1t enjoys under the sceptre of its King. Skill fi'l in turning to advantage all discOntents and to excite all hatreds, it f0ments among the people spirit of distrust and hostility tow. ards power, and endeavors to sow every where the seeds 0f trouble and civil war and already, sire, recent events have proved that political passions, hitherto confined to the summits of society, begin to penetrate the depths of it, and to stir up the popular class es.

 At all times, in fact, the periodical press has been, and it is ia its nature to be, only an instrument of disorder and sedition."
 The report then enumerates various delin- | quencies which it ascrihes to the press, dis. cusses the different modes of repressing the | aMe1ged evils of free discussion, and states Inat judicial proceedings are wholly insuffi- c'ent: and finally decides that there is no rem euy Tor the mischief except by returning to the charter"
