The .Moniteur also contains a Roya
proclamation and ordonnance To the
following effect.-"The Fetes for the
celebration of the Anniversary Of july
1870, shall not be continued. A SO.
lemn funeral service shall be perform.
ed in honor ofthe victims Of the attempt
of this day"
The Government had decided tina,
one funeral procession shall be formed
of all the victims Of Tuesday, instead
of taking place separately. The Cham.
Der of Peers had determined TO &c
into mourning for five days, from that
of the funerals.
In the Chamber of Peers, sitting OF
July 18th. the Minister Of Justice laid
before the Chamber an ordonnance
from the King, which was read, and ia
accordance with which the public gal
lerics were then cleared, by order o!
the President, who declared the legis-
lative sitting closed, and the Chambers
formed into aJudicial Court.
In the secret sitting, the Court OF
Peers, after hearing the requisitory OF
the Procureur General, pronounced a
decision ordering preliminary inves-
tlgation. and appointing Committee
of Discharge.
Girard, the assassin, as stated in the
Paris Messenger, was employed as a
dealer in sccond-handed articles of all
kinds, and was more particularly enga-

companions 10 entertain legitimist opin.
l9ns, and il was even believed that he
received pension from the Duchess
Of Angouleme. He is 30 years of age.
Notwithstanding the serious nature OF
his wounds, he expected to recover,
and is now able to converse. Being
questioned as to his motives for COM
hitting such crime, and urged to
declare whether he had any accompli-
ces. he fully admitted his guilt, and
said ne knew his fate was inevitable:
but as to his motives, he confines him
selfto saying that he disliked the King,
and further declared, that were he even
put TO the torture, he could not name
his accompliccs, for in fact, and in
truth, he had none. Nevertheless, q
woman, who resides behind the house.
has deposed, that an instant after the
explosion she saw two men, both wound
ed, making their escape. In the room
of Girard two white hats of different
sizes were found, which would indicate
that at least two parties were cognizant
to the construction of the murderous
engine. Upwards of one hundred ar
rests, il is stated, have already been
made.

Neere,.-It is stated in the annals Of
fashion, that the cruelty extravagant
custom Of putting seventeen yards OF
chIntz into a pair Of lady's sleeves, is
about to be reformed. The fashion waz
originally started by an old maid with
a wen upon her left shoulder, for the
purpose Of conccaling her deformity.--
II has been followed TO such ridicu-
lous extent, that ladies are absolutely
precluded from feeding themselves like
christians at the dinner or tea table,
and are forced 10 retire 10 the pantry,
and eat by themselves in an undress,

GEN. HARRIsoN.-Large and respectable
meetings of the friends of Gen. Harrison,
have recently been held in Philadelphia and
New York, at both of which strong and spir-
tied resolutions were unanimously passed,
recommending Gen. II. as the most suitable
candidate for the Presidency. The following
is among the resolutions at the meeting in
Ncw-York.
ResolUed, That yielding to none in our ad
miration of the unrivalled talents and brillian
public services of Daniel Webster, or of the
unsuled integrity and democratic principles
of Judge White, we yet believe that no man
Of ordinary penetration, who has deliberately
scanned the present aspect of political affairs,
can fail to perceive that Gen. Harrison is the
only statesman yet named in connection with
the presidency, who can receive the entire
vote of the west, majority in the centre, and
strong support in the northern section of
the Union-who viii be in no wise obnoxious
to the principles, but honorcd by the conf
dence if not the support Of the southland
who will restore by his election, the golden
era of harmony and tranquility, which signal
iacd the administration OF James Monroe.

BUFFALO, Wednesday. 2, p, NJ,

Never in the recollection of the oldest in
habitants OF the place, has it been visited by
90 severe storm as is at present raging. The
wind commenced blowing down the lake, sc-
compan'ed with hail ana ram, about sunrise,
whole lower parts OF the city are completely
covered with water. Warehouses on the
creek, have two or three feet water in them
Vessels and steamboats, lying at the wharvcs,
even iH so good harbor, will receive more
or less damage. Some of them are already
on the wharves and may be entirely wrecked.
The lake makes complete breach I'D as far
as the canal, and boats have been all dsy en-
ployed in securing the lives Of men, women
and children, who have been driven from their
