,isfactiou at the firm, visilant. and devoted con-
duct which they manifested during the afternoon
of Yesterday, and the whole of the night.
Scarcely had his majesty appeared III the court,
when the crowd collected round him. Cries OF

such were the acclamations, that his majesty had
some difficulty in procuring silence.
The King delivered the following address to
the National Guard. on foot:
..Uu dear Comrccles-l come to thank you for
the zeal YOU displayed last night in maintaining
the public tranquility, and in preserving the Pa
Ia;s ROYAL from band of senseless agitators,
whose ridiculous attempts will fall upon them
selves by means Of the good spirit and prompt
tude with which YOU have repressed them What
and what we all wish is. that the pubic peace
may cease to be troubled by the enemies OF that
real liberty, and Of those INSTITUTIONS which
France has conquered, and which casI- alone pre-
serve us from anarchy and all its cOncomltant
evils. 1t is time to put stop to tins dcp0rabe
agitation; it is time that the maintenance Of pub
lie order should restore confidence; that that
confidence should bring back It's activity to COM
merce, aud secure TO every one the free exercise
of all the rights which it is the duty of the gov
ernment to protect and to guarantee. With your
concurrence, with your patriotism. and with the
assistance Of the respectable General aud the
brave Marshal, whom rejoice at all times to see
beside me, We snail accomplish this noble task.
Ever devoted ~ ny country, ever devoted to the
cause of liberty, my first duty is to maintain the
empire of the laws, without which there is mel

His Majesty then addressed the Horse Cation
al Guard: :
"Ny Conlraies-I come TO tell you how much
value your efforts for the maintenance OF pub
lie tranquility, and for the defence OF our pub
lie liberties, of which they would rob us by Puns
ING us into disorder. 1t is time that these dis
turbances should cease; it is time to show our
selves worthy of the maine of Frenchmen, BY de-
Tending our institutions against the attacks OF
anarchy, after having so gloriousiy trinmphed
over these of despotism. 1t is thus that we shall
consolidate our liberties; it is thus that hope will
be realised which have proclaimed with 81 much
loy, that the Charter shall hencetorth be rea-
htv.''
At last. his Majesty having passed into the
first court, found there pquet of the National
Guard aud the post of the 51st regiment oil the
