| PARIS, Aug. 2.-"Charles X. and his
family, with the exception of the Dau-
phincss who has remained at Fontain-
bleau, have been, since the day before
yesterday, at Rambouillet, accompanied
Il by 200O men of all arms, and great
number of general and superior officers,
without troops. The division of Borde-
soullc, and all the rest Of the Guards,
have not left Versailles. The General
is at Rambouillet, and the regiments
have rcfuesd to follow him. The new
authorities and the tri-colourcd flag have
been established at Versailles.
4 "The patriotic movements had spread
! from Paris with so much rapidty and
enthusiasm, to Orleans, Chartres, Blois,
\ Tours, and the whole country on the
Loure, that the retreat Of Charles < to
La Vcndec became impossible. Events
partly resembling those at Paris have
occurred at Nantes. The victory remain
ed with the citizens, and National Vol
unteers were Immediately put in motion.
! In these circumstances Charles X. has
been obliged to ask safe conduct of the
\ Provisional Government. This safe con-
duct has been granted him, and Nation
\ al Commissioners have it is said, already
set out to accompany the cx-hing to
Cherbourg, where he will embark. 1t
had been thought that he would ask to
| proceed toshe frontier of Switzerland, in
order to 60 to Rome, but apparently it
| would have been too painful for him in
his misfortuncs to inhabit city in which
many members of the eX-lmperial fami-
ly resides, nc has wished to spare him
self the pain of such situation.
| "Wc learn that Charles X. abandoned
by all and retired to Rambouillet, has
sent to ask a safe conduct to the first sea
port, offering to abdicatc in favor of the
Duke of Orleans. A committee has gone
to carry him his safe conduct, and to re-
gulate the conditions of it.

i AUGUST 9. AT the glorious crisis when
Partisan energy has re-conqucred our
rights, every thing is still temporary
N othing is defnitive, but the sovereign
! ty of those national rights, and the ctcr-
! nal recollection of the great work of the
! people. But in the midst of various pow
ers invented by the necessity of our sit
uation, the reorganization Of the Ma
tional Guards is measure of defence
and public order, which is generally call

at the advice of three millions of my

been permanent, and might one day be-

At the latest adviccs, the cx-king and
his family had left Rambouillct, for
Cherbourg, accompanied by the COM
missioners. The impression was, that it
was the intention of the royal eXilcs to
embark for the United States
| by one of the Havre packets which
has arrived this forenoon, we learn that
the American ships Great Britain and
Charles Carol, had been chartered on
the morning of the 4th August to con-
vcy King Charles and suite to port in
the United States. 1t was report
