government is published, by which the election OF the
officers of the national guards OF Paris is postponed rom
the 25th of March 10 the 9Th of April

the elections in the national guards will be made an e1
assembly The day fixed for the general elections is the
9th OF April, only four days after the national guards
election The result of the first election will hardly be
known when the other and by far the most important
will commence This is probably sufficient excuse OF

handing postponement is still greater incentive to

ment in adopting it.
