THE RIOTS At LYONS.
The troubles at Lyons, formed the leading topic
of interest, both in the FreuLh and Engi'sh pa

tails. both from papers and private letters these

inclusive--being two days later than those which
reached US yesterday, via Boston. The riots seem
to have been effectuaIIy ex,insuished: and the
government was sending troops into the vicinity
of the city in such numbers, that no aPprehen-
sions for the future were entertained. The gov
ernment has displayed degree OF energy and
decision on this occasion, that have given the tul

similar out.breaking in other places. We quote
the following paragraphs from the Lyons &C.
counts Of the 27th received 10 Paris on the twen-
eighth:-
"At the departure of the courier, tranquility
continued to reign IN the city. The Prefect was
at the hotel Of The prefecture. The commun,ca
tons with the outside of the town were complete

moment appeared on the walls. They were
disavowed, however, by those persons whose
names were affixed to them.

strong majority. 1t was presented to the King
on the same evening by the President OF the

S1RE-We have heard with profound grief the

We hasten to express to your Majesty the una
