ATTEMPT UPON THE KINGS LIFE BY AN
INPERNAL MACHINE.
PAnrs, Jsly -. III n with the deepest con-
csul that we lay before our readers the details Of
te above horrible sveot, that took place at the
review yesterday. After having pissed along the
BouIevard 10 the fartheresi point at which the Ma
tonai Guards and the troops were drawn up. his
Majesty, accompanied by the Duke of Orleans,
the Duke de Nsmours, The Prince dc JonvilIs,
and numerous and brilliant Staff, was returning
along the same line to the Place Veudsme, where
the iroops were to 6le of before him. Al twelve.
at the moment when he had reached Boulevard du
Il
las, tremendous explosion, resembling Irregular
platoon firing, was heard. At first il was sup
posed to be discharge offre-works, but The fab
eag and-eTies ofthe victims soon revealed the re-
saliy, and excessive confusion ensued-an Internal
Machine had just pouied fourth shower Of balls
upon the eoyteSe that surrounded the King -
Mprshal Morter, Duke de Trevise, fell and expi-
red without uttering word Several other ofii-
cers and some Of the National Guards were also
killed, considerable number Of persons wound
cd. The falling of some horses, among which was
iha, Of Marshal Mortier and the caperinng Of 9TH
ere, added 10 the tumult, which il would be diff
cult to describe During the scene the King whose
arm had been grazed by a bullet and whose horses
had received wound in the neck, maintained ihe
calmnsss by which he il distinguished, and dis
played remarkable courage by riding up in the di-
rcct,on Of the house from which the explosion
came. ARer the first emotion had passed, the
eortege continued its route amidst shouts Of Joy
for the preservation Of the Kings life, and threats
of vengeance against the assassins. The bodies Of
ths iiAin' and the persons who were woundedwere
Immediately carried 10 lhe Gaia Turc opposite
where medical assistance was Immediately aHotd-
cd TO such as were still alive. Smoking was seen
20 proceed from the third story Of the house No.
so, on the Boulevard du Temple, Of which the
groand -tioor and first aoor occupied by wine
dsasr named PsraSIf. Each story consists Of one
chamber, which 10 lighted bya single window in
front. The house was immediately surrounded
and all the persons found in il arrested. The
room in which the machine had been consiruc,ed
10 very small, hs dnsile en&bsing only six and a
half fest byysven.--The machiae was mudo with
great skill, Of wood, with iron braces, and ex-
tremsy solid. Two uprights supported two cress
bars Of wood, placed parallel to the window, and
In these were formed grooves, in which were laid
rs gun-barrels The front cross bar, placed at a.
bout s foot from the window, was rather lower
than that behind, that the balls might reach the
body Of man on horseback in the middle Of the
Boulevard. The charge was 20 heavy. that five
out Of the twenty-five barrels had burst. noswi,h-
standing they were very substantial and new. The
ussassn was immediately taken into custody. A.
bout three months ago he hired the rooms Of the
second and third stsries Of N. Dallemagne, the
proprietor. He gave his name Girard, inechans,
.ician, and appears to be about rwsnty-four years
Of age. HIS room has q window in front and an
other behind, and he had taken the precuution TO
fssten rope TO the latter to assist him in making
mis- escape. BY the bursting Of some Of the bar
sells, at the moment Of the explosion, the assassin
was wounded in the forehead, the neck, and the
lp Notwithstanding his wounds he rushed out Of
the window. Some Police officers having ran into
the inner court, and seeing Girrard slipping down
the rope, one Of them exclaimed, All wretch !
we have YOU Grard, who was at the moment
mt the height Of wall. threw himself over it into
an adjoining court, and there police officer ap-
pretended him. lie was placed upon hand
barrow, and conveyed to the Conciergsrie. The
Minister Of the Interior. the Prefect Of Police, and
several Magistrates went to the house, and in the
.ssassin's chamber they found the remains Of the
Internal machine still smoking, straw bed. and a
firo lighted. A delay Of halfa second perhaps in
the sSpIoscn saved the life OF the King. The
<orf, cs advanced in the following order THE
King the Prince de yoinve, The Duke Of Or
iears. sAs Duke de Memoirs, Marshal Lobau, and
MrnIhal Mortier. All those in the eorfege who
were wounded were nearly on the same line as
Marshal Mor.er Ths news Of the attempt was
rapidly propaga,ed through the capital, and pro-
ducsd powerful sensation. General de kumjg-
ny, Aids-ds-Csmp 10 the Kines set oil full gallop
