The Constttutionnel says:-
"The commandant Of the Chateau de Vincennes
has takEn the most minute precautions to place that
fortress out of the reach of coup de main The in
habitants Of the which within range Of the
fire of the batteries have been warned to be prepared
for every event We are assured. moreover that the
military authorities have strongly insisted with the
Executive Commission to have the garrison doubled,
and a squadron Of cavalry placed there. The fort OF
Vincennes to be properly guarded requires active sur
peiHanee. The fifteen hundred men who charged
with this task is said, extremely fatgued, on sc-
great extent of the Notifications The Vicinity of the
wood which hide large columns Of aggressors, and
permit them to arrive unexpectedly up to the brink Of

that to prevent attempt ut surprise by escaade

Not only is the retirement of Ledru-Rolhn spo-

of government cannot last. The French nation
want point d'appui they want some one to lead
them, be 1t to good or evil, Washington or Ma
poleOn, or Robesplerre and Danton. Some man,
whose star has not yet appeared, Is on the eve of
rising. The very prestige of the name of Napoleon
Is now stronger than ever as the result OF the new
elections of the Department of the Seine will show.
The French people recall the days of the Empire,
and marked tribute has been paid to Louis Ma
poleon, in his election for Paris for Corsica, and
two of the French departments The most
markable fact Is, that he was started as a cand-
date only the day before the elections that no fuss
made about him, no list printed, no Journal to
advocate his cause. He has been returned by the
spontaneous vote of the people. 1t tribute to
the Emperor. But Louis Napoleon Buonaparte is
not the man destined by fate to lead France. The
principal actor OF the coming events has not yet
come forward
