The steamer Cambria arrived AZ Boston
on Saturday morning bringing the astounding
news Of a Revolution in France.
Accounts from Paris state that Louis Phil
ippe had abdicaied, that the Royal family
had left Paris, and it is said that they had
landed at Dover, England.
The National Guard and the people rose
on the 23d ultimo, and at IL o'clock the Pal
ais Royal was attacked and soon fell into the
hands of the populace. Five hund red lives
are said TO have been lost. Gen. Lamoriciere
was seriously if not MORALLY wounded. The
Palaise Royal was sacked.
A regency under the Duchess of Orleans
was proposed and rejected. The House re-
fused to allow the family Of Louis Philippe
TO resign the throne.
All Paris is in the hands of the National
Guards aud The people. The Tuilleries were
sacked and the furniture burnt.
The N. y. Express gives the following
explanation of the cause that led to the Rev
%olution:
"'rhe discussion in the French Chamber
Of Deputies TO which we briefly alluded as
progressing at the last dates by the Britain
MIA having occupied not less than nineteen
sitiings, have ii will be seen resulted just as
Guizot predicted they would do, if carried
on as begun, France is evOlutionized A
dynasty is overthrown. We believe that the
last shred of monarchism is blown TO the
winds forever, and that the throne, torn by
the citizens Of Paris from the Palace of the
Tuilleries, will never again be set up In
France. The revolution does not seem to us
to bear the slightest similarity TO those Of
1889 and 1880. 1t is more the result Of de-
liberation, more the development of a princi-
ple,-the inevitable crisis Of a persevering
opposition, on the part OF a weaker against a
stronger power.
On Saturday, the 18th, when, (upon the
discussion o! the amendment 10 the Address,
proposed by NJ. Sallandronze, in favor OF
Parliamentary RI ferm,) NJ. Guizot came for
ward, and in the name of the Cabinet declar-
ed that, looking at the actual state of France
and of Europe, it would be most imprudent
to entertain the question at present, and pre-
dicted that it must inevitably lead 10 a dlsso-
luton Of the Chamber; when, after such a
debate, he refused to enter into any engage

the matter officially forward: il was TO hav'
been expected that the popular eXcitemen
would be very great, especially when tn
vote against the amendment was so decided
From this time TO the 22d of the month
the excitement increased. On that day,
Reform banquet, as it was called, was to b,
held; a reunion Of the friends of reform,-
and at which from the excited state Of popu
lar feeling and from past experience, it was
anticipated that trouble might arise. Orders
were issued by the Government 10 occup,

almost cynical and defiant. Against the no

occupying their present positions, would ne

Well, the banquet in the twelfth dFOn-dii
