From tho Journal des Debass, July %.
Paris is the theatre of the most afro
cious homicide that disgraces the an
mails Of history. This morning, as his
Majesty was passing from the Palais
10 the Iuelleries, for the purpose Of re-
viewing the troops, he was fred at and
MORALLY wounded, when opposite the
Hotel Dieu, by some person in the
crowd, apparently with pistol, as no
tree Of the weapon has been discover
ID The ball, which has been extract
ed, and weighs three-fourths Of an
ounce, passed entirely through the up
per part Of his majesty's right arm, and
entered the body between the fourth
and fifth ribs; and, it is supposed, in
tersected the pulmonary vein.
On receiving the wound, his majesty
instantly turnedtowardsthe spotwhence
the attack proceeded, and his horse
starting at the moment, threw him
backwards; and while in the act Of fall
ing, he was caught in the arms Of his
1ants, and borne to the house Of
laut. Medical attendance was
d y summoned; NJ. Ia Vigny,
10I Household surgeon Of his majesty,
being buta few PAGES behind him at the
time Of the assault, was the first who
examined the wound, on doing which,
he instantly declared that his Majesty
could survive hut few hours.
The king, who had not hitherto spo-
ken word, heard the announcement
without any visibleemotion Of surprise,
or even ofregret. His first desire was
70 have an interview with her majesty
the queen, who had been already sent
for; and then he expressed his willing
ness to die, and remarked, that, in lea
wing the government Of France in the
hands Of his son, the Due D'Orleans,
he felt assured that her honor and dig
nifty would never be degraded, nor her
present conspicuous station among the
nations Of the earth be in the least aba
sed. Before tho arrival of the queen,
the influx Of blood to the lungs had
produced sufocation to such degree
that his majesty was entirely speech
less, and death ensued at eleven min
utes after two o'clock, being precisely
one hour and twenty-three minutes
from the time he received the wound.
Thus has the anniversary Of the glo-
RIOTS revolution Of 1886, been render
ed day Of disgrace, humiliation and
mourning to the entire French nation.
This single deed, by its atrocity, NAV
wellcause the citizens Of France, thro'-
out the world, to blush for very shame.
The greatest king Of the greatest ma
ton, in the greatest age the world has
ever known, atpeace with all the world.

family and friends, atmid-day, in the
