The prisoners were safely lodged in the Palais

correspondent, who walked through the princi-
pal streets, describes them rs
"TrescDtiug the aspect Of absolulc solitude,

large fires were lighted by them. The Place
du C%arrouscl was occupied during tho whole
night by a strong military force. In the course
of the evening, the King, accompanied by the
Duke de Ncmours and the Duke de Montpcn-

WEDNESDAY,, Feb. 23-Thc National Guarl Of
the 2d ACCOMPLISHMENT TO The number Of 300 or
600, assembled at an early hour in the rue L0pelle-
tier, opposite the Opera. Their motto was " Re.
form, aud the dismissal OF VI. Guizot.'
When the intentions Of the citizen soldiers he
came known, an immense crowd assembled before
them, CRYING, " Nive Ia Gardc Rationale Niye Ia
Reformc.n Tie latter cry was loudly repeated by
the National Guards, the officers joining in il and
hourishing their swords. The cause OF Reform may
be said to have triumphcd from that moment, and

wards, those National Guards formed in line and
marched towards the Tuillerics, midst d~cafening
cries Of Vive Ia R%cforme," and Down with the
Ministry y to which they energetically responded.
Instead Of entering the Place dc Carrousel, they
proceeded along the Rue dc Rivoli, and drew up
between the Rue de Dauphin and the rue du 20
Juliet they had no sooner taken their position,
than an " officer d'Onlonnancen Of General Jacquc-
minot rode up, and aftcr exchanging a few words
with licutenant.c colonel, rode back in all haste TO the
Chateau. An immense crowd then assembled round
the National Guard, and their cries Of" vive Ia Re
formo,H aud " Down with the Ministry could BE-
distinctly heard by the King and Royal Family
Nevertheless, no troops were ordered in that direc'
ton. In the meantime, the Nationals Of the Sd Lc-
gion collected 10 the number Of 5000 on and about
the Place des Peiits Pores, and their officers, having
held a council, agreed 10 dcpuie their colonel to the
King, TO acquaint His Majesty with the wishes Of

termination being TO march upon the IuillcIics II
the reply was negative. In one Of the by-streets a
detachment Of troops, stationed there to intercept
the passage, accepted bread and wine from the peo-
pie, and their officer looked ON, nav, encouraged
them to accept the provisions offered TO them
The 4th Legion also took arms and stationed de.
tachinenis in different directions, TO maintain order
and prevent the effusion OF blood. The cries for
Reform and the cheers for the National Guards and
troops OF the Lane were accompanied by others Of
very lamentable significance a A las GnisN E"A

Meanwhile a conflict was going on IN various
quarters Of Paris, although the troops Of the line
ofen refused TO fire upon the people, and the Mum
cipal Guard fraicmized with the National Guard
after their attempt to conquer the I'd Legion Of the
National Guard, who, ut the mafic Of the ID AKRON.

form this morning. The Municipal Guards, whose
barracks adjoin the church Of the Po,ts Pons, were
ordered 10 disarm them, and advanced with charged
bayonets on them but the movement was initiated
by the National Gnards, the bayoneis crossed, blood
was about 10 low, when the Colonel Of the Nation

" Hold, soldiers These are the people; respect

arms, and marched off.
~ inc evening OF wednesday q most unhappy
occurrence took place ut NJ. Guizot, Hotel, a chance
shot breaking the leg Of the horse mounted by tho
Lieutenant Colonel of the guard he believed that
il was an attack, and fired upon a party of young
men who were passing at the time. Twenty fell
dead or wounded, and an eye witness describes the
ensuing scenes rs t~ragically interesting.
Near the National office I heard u vast crowd
coming up the Boulevard, chanting the death chant
Of the Girondins, instead Of the victorious ArTsdI
aaise. Mingled with this awful and imposing che
rus, the noise Of wheels could be heard. A large
body OF the people slowly advanced. -Four in front
carried torches. Behind them came mn open cart
surrounded by torch bearers. The light was strong,
and discovered four or five dead bodies, partly mi.
dressed, which appeared to have been carefully rang
cd in the cart.
When the head Of the column reached The corner
OF the Rue Lepellctier, the song was changed 10 a
burst Of fury, which will not soon be forgotten BY
those who heard It. The procession hailed at the
Office OF the National, and the whole party burst in
70 a unanimous shrcak or cry of pogtdnce. You
know how sonorous Is that word when pronounced
IN French. The vehicle was surrounded by people,
who were weeping and full Of indignation, and who
showed us the bloody bodies, crying, They are
n~ssassins who have Slain Them We will a,enge
them ! Give us arms ARMS y The torches cast.
ing their glare by turns on the bodies and on the
people, added TO the violent emotions Of the scene.
NJ. Garnier-P Pages, being at that moment in the Of
flee ofthe National, addressed the people. lie prom
iscd that he would employ all his efforts TO obtain
for the people thus attacked the satisfaction which
Is required from those impious and atrocious min
isters. The funeral trnin left, conducted and light
ed IN the same manner they conveyed the bodies
to distant quarters.
Count Mole has declined the task Of forming a
new ministry The King sent late last night for
NJ. 1hiers, aud that gentleman at once undertook
to submit to his majesty the list Of n new cabinet,
making a proviso, however, that he might be per-
mitted TO join with him as one OF his colleagues NJ,
odilon BarTot. To this His Majesty was gracious
y pleased TO accedc. This morning At a little be-
fore 8 O'Clock, as n number Of people were busily
employed in erecting q barricade at the end Of the
Rue Taitbout, close TO the Boulevard, they saw n
group Of gentlemen approaching from the end
nearest 10 the Rue des trois Frercs. Some Of
the crowd Immediately recognized them, and
loud cries Of " Vive NJ. Thsey1n q Viye NJ. o. Bar
rot burst forth. With these gentlemen were NJ,
Duvergier de Hauranne, Nj. de Remusai, Prince de
la Muscovn, and other members belonging to the
Opposition. The whole party walked on towards
the Chateau, followed by cries Of " Vive Ia Re.

The cry arose Of " EmIhechss d. moins, rs coHDs de
