ed quelled, il was not expected that the
capital would be altogether free from par.
tial disturbance for many days. A body
Of the insurgents, who had not submitted,
had intrenched themselves in the cemetery
of Pere IL Cbaise, and other detached
bodies had taken refuge in La Vi!lette
and other parts Of the northern and east
ern 'Hanlieue." They were surrounded
by some regiments Of infantry, and sum-
moned to lay down their arms. They re-
fused, excepting on condition that they
should be set at liberty, and appeared to be
preparing to make some resistance. when
some shots went of from their side, one
of which struck soldier. The troops
imagined themselves betrayed, and with
out further ceremony opened murderous
fire upon the insurgents. drove them from
their position in the cemetery into the
neighboring vineyards, and as quarter
was no longer the order of the day. almost
every one Of the unhappy wretches was
destroyed. In other parts Of the same
neighborhood vast number Of prisoners
were taken, who were all carried into
Paris.
The leaders and instigators Of the in
surrection are to be brought before court
martial, and tried as rebels taken in arms.
The other prisoners are TO be Immediately
sent beyond the seas.
Agrcat number Of the insurgents were
led away by demagogues, and If some Of
them bad money very great portion were
induced by excess Of misery.
APPEARANCE Of the CHy-It is imPos-
sible to conceive the state Of the Quarter
81. Antoine. More than so houses are en-
tircly destroyed by the artillery, and a
much larger number have suffered consi-
derably. On the Place de Ia Bastille the
disasters are not less. The column Of
July has been injured. The warehouse
known as ala Belle Fermirce" is COM
pletely destroyed.
The Faubourg St. Antoine presents a
still more sinister aspect. There is not a
house which has not suffered more or less
by the cannonade. The inhabitants Of
this unhappy faubourg appear in conster-
nation. The greater number submit with
eagcrness TO the search for arms which the
insurgents have abandoned. Cries OF
vengeance are very rare, and those Of
misery prevail.
From the Place della Bastille. along the
Boulevards, to the Porte St. Denis. the
disasters are most horrible. The windows
Of the greater part OF the houses are
smashed to pieces.
The physiognomy of raris during the
last three days is extraordinary. The
general aspect is that OF an immense city,
the whole Of whose population has sud-
denly disappeared. The quays. the boule
wards, and the streets, are silent as the
desert, save when this silence is broken
BY the tramp Of troops, the beating the
alarm drum, the sinister rolling Of muske-
try, or the more awful thunder Of the can
non. The only population apparent are
tho military, and these devoted mon
watched and fought for million Of souls,
who waited with dread anxiety the issue
Of the struggle that might perchance con-
sign them to the hand Of the murderer and
their property to pillage.

received the last signs Of Benjamin Laro-
che, the translator OF the works Of Sir
Walter Scott, who was killed at the barri-
cade Rocheouart.
As body Of the national guard were
conducting some prisoners to the Tuillcr-
les, a musket was accidentally fired, when
the adjoining posts. thinking an attempt
was to be made to release the prisoners,
fired and killed a Colonel, an officer Of
engineers, and eight Of the prisoners.
Nmm6er of Pr,s0ners fakes.-On Tues
day evening every remaining symptom of
disorder was suppressed. Up till that
time the number Of prisoners was 5000,
but every hour added to the number.
The prisons, the cellars Of the Tuilleries,
and Of the National Assembly; were gorg-
cd with prisoners. In the Conciergerie,
1900 were confined in an open court.
The indignation Of the national guards,
and the inhabitants. against them, was SO

What is to be done with such
q mass Of human being!is a question
which appears to puzzle every one. To
send them all to the Pacific is utterly
impossible. and to keep them in France is

attempts as that from which it has
