BRAVERY OF LAMARTINE, ARAG0
AND OTHERS. 81

During the days combating, the mem
bers of the Executive Committee exposed
themselves boldly At many barbados
Arago psesented himself and reasoned or
attempted to reason with the people His
friends frequently feared that he would be
killed. but the rabble seemed to respect his
courage-courage, we may remark ,-of the
very noblest character, as he exposed his
own life III the hope of preventing blood
shed. In some instances he was loudly
CHI sered.
During the greater part of the day La
marine accompanied General CaVaignac to
he scenes of contest, the General having
been slightly wounded by the side of Lamar
time. NJ. Bixio, who i'm the National As
Isembly proposed that the members should
Take part with the National Guard, was
shot, il Is feared MORALLY. Clement Thorn
as was wounded in the thigh. Dornes,f a
Representative, and one of the Editors of
the National, was also wounded.
THE FIGHTING ON FRIDAY.
In the course of the morning 500 troops
Of the Garde Mobile were disarmed by a
body of the insurgents, headed by an indivi-
dual in the uniform Of an officer of the Ma
tional Guard. At 6 O'Clock The fighting con-
tinued and the number of troops had been
increased. BY fatal mistake, two legions
of the National Guards fired on each other.
The cries among the populace were various,
"Viva la Henry Vn' ''Viva Napoleont''-
viva la Republiquep were severaly heard.
NJ. Caussidiere at this hour joined the mem
bcrs of the Executive Government on horse
back, and they passed along the boulevards.
At O'Clock the struggle in the quarter of
St. Jaques was most terrible. The insur-
gents, strongly barricaded, fired warmly on
the national guard and troops of the line,
who replied Cannon were at work. The
Staff was at the Hotel de Vile. The artil-
lery was on the Pont Notre Dame. The
cannon fred from this point on the Rue de
la Cite, and the bottom of the Rue St. ia
ques, appeared to engage them very much.
Strong barbados existed in the Rue de la
Harpe. Much blood was shed, and Geh'l.
Francois was wounded. In the course of
the evening the insurgents captured post of
Garde Mobile, and made them march with
them. All round the Temple the town was
in possession of the insurgents, who were
defending themselves with intense energy.
The platoon discharges replied to them ev-
cry five minutes.
1t was estimated that not less than 10000
of the ouvriers and the dregs of the popu-
ation Of Paris aud the banlieu were gather
ed together in the desperate attempt to make

FRIDAY NIGHT.

The night of the esd was a terrible one.
None, save those who have been in battle
field; or in city attacked by an enemy, can
have an adequate idea of it, The move
ments of the troops rapidly increased, and
all the signs of an approaching struggle of
the most serious nature were manifest
The 'generale' continued to he beaten in all
quarters till midnight. Nothing could ex-
coed the terror that was everywhere spread
Cavalry and artillery passed at full gallon,
every moment, along the boulevard About
midnight these troops drew up for the night
along the sides of the street; the cavalry dis
mounted and bivouaclSed on the footways.
The soldiers, who had been on duty from
very early hour, completely overcome,
were extended everywhere on the footpath
sleeping, having helmet and; sword laid
beside them. Some tended the horses, which
in thousands occupied the carriage road
This state of things continued until o.
clock, W hen the trumpets and drums again
sounded, the cavalry and artillery mounted,
and the infantry formed, aud marched of to-
another scene. In the course of half an
hour discharges of cannon and musketry be-
gan to be heard, and this continued until
O'Clock, when silence again prevailed,

After this decree passed, the Executive

THE CONFLICT OF SATURDAY.
At enormous barricades were erect
ed between the Rues St. Denis and 81
Martin, constructed entirely of paving
stones, about fifteen feet thick; they were
almost proof against cannon balls. Barn.
cales not less formidable were erected at
the extremity of Foubourg Poissonnierle.
Although the barrieades were of gIganuc
strength and size, they could not STAND a
gainst the artillery; and you may form some
idea of the numbers that fell when ltei YOU
that as soon as the barricade was destroyed
they built another of the bodies of their VIC
Tins, piled, or rather stacked, one across
the other. Women assisted, and even han
died the muskets like fends. In the hue
St. Jaques was one of the most irIgghtiul
struggles. They took. possession OF all me
house, and among them the large establish
ment of La Belle Jardineirie, where =
bloody combat took place, and which endea

ears. Out of an entire battalion OF tDe
Garde Mobile which attacked TINS quarter
only twenty-seven were left alive.

PREPARATIONS OF THE INSUR-
GENTS.
An eyewitness, who strongly condemns
the apparent apathy of the beurgeoise in
the outset of The Instruction, gives mar
rative of his own observation on ttcSnorn-
ing of the 25d. After stating that the Porte
st. Denis was the focus of all the disorder,
he says that on approaching that neighbour
hood he was surprised not to see single
soldier, or National Guard, bur, on the 9TH
er hand, several thousand of the conspira-
tors IN possession Of the whole of the dis
trlct, and already strongly entrenched in
barbados of the most formidable descrip-
ton. Across the boulevard was an i'm
mense barricade, formed of four our five
omnibuses, several carriages, huge wagon,
and paving-stones taken from the streets,
torn up for considerable distance on botlry
sides. ,.38 ,a1E~64sa safss,
A little beyond the Rue St. Denis was an
other, fully as formidable, and composed of
miscellaneous niaterials;s and stilhfarther on
towards the Porte St. Martin was third,
not so large as the first, but still sufficient to
be powerful Defence L he end of Rue du,
Fauburg ST Denis was also closed up with
huge barricade. which prevented the ap-
proach of troops from the outskirts. The
Rue St. Denis, the Rue Nilleneuve Bour-
bon, the Rue de Clery, and the other streets
ahuttng on the spot in possession of the
conspirators, where similarly defended and
thousands of gamins were iindustriously
working with pixies and spades tearing up
the streets and adding to the detences.
The mere enumeration of these extensive
works shows how much time must have been
spent i'm their erection, and it is wonderful
to think the authorities, who had been fore
warned Of what was doing, and who show
so much alacrity in calling out the troops
when there is no occasion for them, should
have allowed them to be completed without
interruption.
The barbados were defended by some
hundreds of people in blouses, of whom
many were not armed, or at least did not
show their arms. They had a great num-
Der of tri-colored flags stuck upon the top
of the barrcades, with the words "ateliers
nationaux" inscribed upon them. The Porte
St Denis, which was in the hands of the
conspirators, was decorated with black flag,
and on the top of it were arranged heaps
of paving stones, apparently for the pur-
pose Of being hurled upon the heads of those
who might attack it.

NATIONAL ASSEMBLY.

NATIONAL ASSEMBLY,.
The proceedings of this body, until the
hreakout of the insurrection, were principal
" confined to consideration of the new
constitution, draft of which had been pre-
pared by the committee for presentation; but
the sudden, though unexpected, conduct of
ouvriers, had entirely suspended the regular
course of business, and latterly the time of
the Assembly was entirely devoted to re-
ceiving intelligence of the state of the city
from time to time, and acting as circum-
stances required. Several DEGREES and pro-
CARNATIONS were passed, bearing principal
" on the passing events. 1t was evident,
however, that a party existed among the
deputies who sympathized with the insur-
gents.
On the 2Sth ult, Gen. Lebreton, in a
very warm speech, charged the 'eminent
mem of the Assembly with culpable silence
in the present state of affairs, s. plainly told
them that the investigation of the commit
tee would tell seriously against some of
them. The feeling of the Assembly is very
strong against the ultra democratic section
who are looked upon as accomplices of the
insurgents. The thanks of the Assembly
were voted to General Cavaignac. Gener-
al Cavaignac proposed that the army, the
national guard, and guard mobile should be
included in this vote, which was agreed to.
