The King arrived in Paris from St. Cloud late
in the e, enng, and Immediately held Counsel
Of Ministers; after which he reviewed the troops
OF the line. the National Guards and artillery,
in the Place du Carousa; he was enthnsias'ica-

rebellion by the most energetic means.
The following proclamation, appears in the
Noniteur, and has been placarded in every part
of the capital;
PARIS, June s.
..Inhabtants of Paris! You have trembled
with horror at the attempts with which, IN the
course of this day, the factous have afflicted this
capital at several points, under the pretence of
doing honor to the memory of brave man, whose
family and friends are as indignant as you must
be. at these sacregenus excuses. The Govern
ment of the King. created by the will OF the peo-
pie. will prove to you that It is capable OF fulfill
ing the mission which France has entrusted TO it.
Strong in your confidence, it will fully Justify It.
Men driven to desperation BY the checks receiv-
ed in the South aud in the West by the invete-
rate enemies Of our liberties, men who boasi OF
being in anarchy to promote a counter-revolu.
ton. have held out their hands to the enemies of
the Constitutional Monarchy. Carlism and re-
publicauism have risen together, against the
Throne of July. each hoping to make use of the
uthrr 10 secure its own triumph.
