Highly Interesting FR O.M FRANCE.

We must acknowledge that even the la- test previous accounts, though 1t was inn possible to believe that the Kings mea- seres would command quiet submission, had not prepared HIS for revolution so sudden, and though 80 violent, so easily accom- pilshed. as that which has been effected in PARIS, and which all FRANCE seems inclin- ed to aid. The details, (which will be found III preceding part ofto-days paper ! are ample, but necessarily somewhat con fused. Even the correspondent of the Lon- don Morning Heraid, whose narrative will be read with great eagerness, is scarcely snficienfly minute iD describing the com mencement of the tumults. The chain of events IS thus given m the .Neac- Yorh Eue- ming Post.
 The obnoxious decrees which have been the occasion of this rising Of the French people were made out and dated on Sunday the 25th of July. On the 26tI they were made public in the official organ of the Cabinet, the .alenitrHr. 'Fs.a baahs refused to discount, and the manufacturers dis charged their workmen. On the evening Of that day the proprietors of the liberal Journals assembled, and the greater num- Der of them determined to disregard the ordinance suspending the liberty of the press, and to print without the previous ce- remony of authorization. On Tuesday, the 27th, the Ndtionel the Tens, and the Jour nal dn Commerce published accordingly, without conforming to the ordinances-the JournGt des DebGts and the Constitutionei dld not publish at all. Several battallions of the guards were under arms at an early hour in the Champs EIyses, and the people observing them began to form in groups in Paiais Royal and elsewhere. The excite ment was excessive, and scenes of violence occurred, and some blood was shed. One of the gems d'arn,es was killed in the Palais Royal in burst of popular fury, occasion ed by an attempt to prevent the reading of one of the popular journals. The gems q arnses paraded the streets with orders to fire Tn case of any excesses. Late in the evening the offices Of the three papers which published in defiance of the decree were burst open by force and the presses seized.
 On Wednesday, the 18th, the royal in- signia were pulled down and burned at an early hour. The National Guard, disband- ed some years ago, and including many el- derly men, appeared in uniform, and were hailed by the people with enthnsiasm.- The people appeared armed; and the whole city was i'll state of instruction. Scye- ral bloody actions took place between the National Guard and the Royal Guard, in which the former took the Hotel de Vile and several other posts. The Deputies met on this day and issued an address declaring the decrees illegal, and claiming to be still the representatives ofthe people. On tbis day the demands of the nation that the king should dismiss his ministers and re- peal the obnoxious decrees were commit nicated to Polignac and refused.
 On Thursday, the 29th, the Louvre and Tuilleries, which had been attacked the day before, were taken, the barracks of the Swiss Guards stormed and carried, and the Swiss cut to pieces; and at o'clock in the afternoon the victory Of the people was complete, after great bloodshed on both sides, and the firing ceased.
 On the Both, Charles x. announced to the Deputies that he had named If. De Montemart president of the council, and that he was willing to accept of a ministry nominated by him. No attention it seems was paid to this proposal, and the next day commissioners were appointed provision ally ii place Of the fallen administration of Charles K. On the same day the Duke of Orleans, who had been invited to as- sume the sovereign power as Lieutenant General, signifed his acceptance and 1t was announced that the late king had ceased to reign.
 The new ruler of France is the son of that Duko of Orleans, who assumed the title of | 'Egalite, in the French revolution, and was puillotined The son was Colonel in in the revolutionary cayalry-afterward ards a profoeoor of Mafhem atiCs in Switzerland and still later resident in England, and finally returned with the Bourbons, and was restored to the immense fortunes of his family. Phii. Daiiy Chronicle. A paper printed at Galena, Ill.) states, that roof of more than 1900 square feet may be covered with I65 ins. Of sheet lead; 1; which would cost $5533a about S20 less than the price of shingles. The lead, too, will last as long as the walls, and when the rails arc gone, the lead will not bc lost.
