Over the city, turmoil, excitement and noise,
overwhelmed all the ordinary routine of affairs. A
writer to London print thus describes the day:

On Wednesday, the 3d. the Chamber of Peers
proceeded to its order of the day some trifng bill
relating to mortgage law in the Colonies) without
deigning to know that a wondrous transition was
going on around them.
In the Chamber of Deputies, the opening of the
session signalized by the appearance of an
immense deputation from the National Guard, who
presented a petition Through NJ BarrotD in favor
of reform. NJ yavin put several questions to The
leaders of the majority, asking why the protection
of the National Guard had not been extended over
the citizens, the preceding day.
Guzot then rose to reply:

with the public interest suitable to the chamber to enter

excitement arose, which did not subsde for several

will maintain restore order, and the laws to be
respected according to its conscience, as it has done till

Much conversation ensued between the men,

the last.
While the above was going on in the Chambers,
great numbers of fresh troops continued to be
marched into Paris, from garrisons within short
marches of the capital. Though the rappl was
beaten, the National Guard did not turn out.
Early in the afternoon, deputaton of the officers
of the National Guard went to the Tuileries to de-
mand that the Guizot Ministry should be dismissed,
when they We're told by General Jacqueminot,
commanding the National Guard, that the Ministry
had given in its resignation.
The red aspect of the sky in the direction of
Mont Valerin showed that an incendiary fire was
raging there.
At about 7 O'Clock an immense crowd, consisting
almost exclusively of persons of the working
classes. many of them very young, descended the
BouIevards They were headed by men bearing
blazing torches. They sang new favorite song,
beginning
'C'est lie sort lie plus beau, lie plus dsne denvieF'
At intervals they changed the refrain by shout
ing with all the force of their lungs, Down with
Guzot down with Guizot.'
On reaching the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, they found
assembled very strong of infantry and dragons which
occupied the whole width of B9ulevSds with tie excep

to have taken place at that point.
The night of the 23d seems to have placed beyond
doubt the fact that that most potent and awful of
People aroused in Wrath and Determi-
nation existed in Paris; and was arrayed against
the existing government How cowardice and
tyranny go hand in hand, is proved by the sue
