 i'll possession of ali the military posts of
 the metropolis, and occupied them with
 the air of veterans. Aioug the quays
 and streets the female inhabitants were
 to be seen seated in groups preparing {,
 bandages and lint for the wounded. The
 passages, (arcades,) afforded striking in~ stances of this benevolent disposition.
 All the milliners, and their shopwomen and workmcn, were to be seen sitting outside their shops (because those, being closed, afforded no light,) busily engag- ed in making lint.
 l Paris Is so fortified inferiorly that million of men would hardly suffice to carry it. l forget how many thousand streets 1t contains, but every street of them is capable of long and protracted defenee--themea for which, however, do not feel at liberty to describe.
 The Ecole Militaire surrendered yesterday. The artillery from Nineen- nes marched upon St. Cloud. The fortressltselfremains in possession of the Kings troops. The Due de Bordeaux is said 10 be there. Poor child! l am sure he would net De Ene!es!ea me naced, he would certainly be presey- ed by the Garde Rationale, at the cN- pensc Of their lives-yca. eventhe com moncst laborer would answer for his safety, If he were thrown upon him for protection. Ihc Priests hat! all disar9- peared, or, if visible, were disguised. The Provisional Government caused
 them to be informed that they were un- der tie protection of the n;ltioi,, aud
 might resume their functions in securi- y. They have, ill consequence, all re turned to their churches and houses Alarge force has sassembledat St. Cloud with the intention, it is said, Of remain 1 ing there. They do not intend attack l ing Paris, it is believed, but, if attiickcdy they will fight. They occupy Moudon and Mount yalerien (the heights to the right and left of St. Cloud.) Several hundred soldiers of the Regiment of the Guard arc said to nave left their regiments within these two days, and are to be met with in Paris with their moustaehcs shaycn of.
 1 The number oi men under arms this day is comparatively small. The cila-
 teau of the Tuiierics remains in the bands ot the brave fellows who took it. Iney are principally Of working classes, and on Thursday night presented a most grotcsque appearance AmoGg t..em are four Irish mechanics, who arrived ssiortunatelya in Paris ssthat very dsly.', Oh their way to Charenton. The thing
 was not 10 be withstood, so in they went with ssthc boys."
 The loss of both parties on Thursday
 was immense. 1t was evident to every man who saw them that the french
 troops were dciectcd. Some oi them had not tasted food for thirty hours They fought, moreover, against their own countrymen. The poor Swiss had still more cause for dejection, for they apprchended that no quarter would De shown them. They were wrong, for the lives of all omsurrendered were spared. The people fought like Iions- At one point, a woman, in the cos tune of her sex, headed the Bourgeois, and was the boldest of the combatants, if degrees of bravery can beadmitted in this most memorable conflict of modern times. A woman, in mans clothes, fought at tine attack on the Swiss bar racks inthe Rue Plumet. The 3d Re giment of the Guard (yendeans) fought
 with extraordinary bravery and devo- ton. Many of the Cuirassicrs surren-
 dercd their swords. The Lancers of the Guards--the finest body of men ini
 the country-fought with hcroisn and
 constaney, buttz'sserS dresdifuahsiyj tut up.
 Many of them (private soldiers) were young menot family. The manner in
 which the Swiss fought, and the nature of the engagement, may be taken from the following instance: 4 company of them defended one portion of the Rue St. Honore. They were reduced to sixty whea l saw them, and fought in three lines of single files.
