supported by detachment of The 10Th In
fanny of The Line. A National Guart
WAS wounded several OF the rioters were
made prisoners.
According to private accounts the mum
her of killed and wounded was very consl'
derable. Reports were IN circulation that tht
parrisons about Paris had been iampered
with. and that il the RevoIntionlsis succeed
in maintaining their ground Tor seven oil
eirh, hours longer they might expec'
strong reiniorcemen;s. From the consier,
nation which prevailed at the TuilleIrles II
was evident that the Government had not
the remotest idea that any plot existed for
overturninv the throne Of Louis Philippe.
The Paris papers Of Monday morning
give very lew details respecting The eFneufe.
Colonel Peion Ade-de-camp OF General
Cudieres, was dangerously wounded in the
Place des Italens by struggling band OF
insurgents who had quilted the principal
n ass. Colonel Balm, of the SD Regiment,
was also dangerously wounded. The off-
cial report, we understand, gives ninety
killed or wounded amongst the troops.
W hen the cavalry first retreated from the
fire OF the insurgents near the Palais de
Justice, General Dutchand mounted the
horse, of a slain trooper, led on the mu-
nicipal horse, and drove the insurgents
back.
The Quotidienne gives the following
explanation OF the cause which led To
the commencement Of the disturbances:-
"Ahout q week ago, in consequence OF
coalition among some lonrneymen hat
tiers, 10 the Rue Bourg lAbbe, dozen of
The leaders of the men were arrested, and
it was to deliver them from prison that
their companions determined yesterday 10
attack the Concierge. Some Of the pop
ulace Joined them in their movement with
out knowing The cause of il and commenced
the first attack on the guardhouses at the
Place de Chate'et, the Hotel de Vile, and
the Paas de Justice"
The revival of the Paris emeute on
Monday, by some audacious insurgents
who attacked post near the Hotel de
Vile, and spread alarm through the town.
The troops had been previously withdrawn,
by the order, il seems, of the Duke of Or
Ieans.-W hen the insurgents were repul-
sed from the Marche des Innocens, few
of them succeeded in forming kind OF
barticade in the Rue St. Mary, which was
easily destroyed BY the troops. The last
efforts Of the insurgents here was to carry
IN triumph The dead body Of one OF their
slain, in order to rouse the populacc, but
a charge ofcavalry put an end TO this hope.
A little alter four O'Clock the last effort of
the insurgents was made on different
point, on the side of the river remote from
the general scene of disorder. This was
an attack on tho Polytechnic School, where
they hoped TO find some assistance from
the students. Although they approached
il adroitly under cover Of some Wagons,
the officers Of the school had been warned
end the insurgents were so warm Y receiv-
ed that three Of them fell dead at the first
fire. After repeated efforts the insurgents
gave up their purpose and reireated.
When it was told at the Tulleries that the
students had themselves fred on and re-
pulsed the insurgents, il caused great sat
isiaction. The King went forth immedi.
atev, and passed through the ranks Of the
soldiers encamped in the Carousel. The
attack on the Polytechnic school was the
last effort Of the insurgents, and notwilh-
standing all the fears entertained for Mon
day night, it passed away TRANQUILITY.
About l40 Of the insurgents were taken on
Sunday, and several Of them, when put au
secret and questioned, made important rev.
Citations. On Tuesday morning, in conso-
quence, about forty persons connected with
the revolt were arrested, not armed, or in
the streets, but where they lodged. Col.
Vaudrey was said to be among them. Blu,
though recently in Paris, he was not there
on Sunday or Monday. VI. Kersausie,
however. is said TO be arrested.-An Or
dominance is said to have been drawn up,
ordering those implicated in the recent
emeute before the Court Of Peers for trial.
The Duke Of Bassano died at Paris on
the 18th Of May.
