glaring, what an alarming inconsistency! Durino
the day il was evident wherever ones ewes were
turned, that the posts were tripled and quadrupled
over the whole city. Strong patrols Of horse and
foot were slowly and constantly traversing it in al
directions. AT nightfall large bodies Of chosen
troops occupied all the prominent places. This
cause and the inclemency of the weather gave q
constrained, cheerless, purely official character "a
the celebration, and win mark the 4th May, 1851
as the saddest grand holyday that Paris has wit
messed for many year. The fear, too, on the
part of many that the threats of emeute, to which
alluded in my last, would, in spite of the mill
tary preparation, be realized, cast gloom over many
face.
Since my last, the police has been happily able
to prove that the charge Of having fabricated the in
famous revolutionary appeals to the people which
have lately come to light for the purpose Of throw
ing odium upon the Republican party and exciting
insurrect0n, was false. The fact is, this charge
never fails to be made. II should be received with
much caution, but not unhestatingly rejected as
false; for it is game that the French police has
been known beyond all doubt to play, and which
it would seem 10 be becoming the interest of Gov
ernment TO recommence. It is this time, however,
without foundation. The secret printing estab-
lishment, with an edition Of another bulletin just
ready for circulation, has been seized, and some
half dozen individuals, known as Democrats and
Socialists of the deepest dye, arrested in connex-
ion with it. This seizure and the report in con-
nexion with it, that two members of the Assembly,
NM. GREPPo and MIoT, had but few minutes be.

The above is, you will see, merely an invitation
to immediate insurrection; but it issues from the
same committee as that scandalous invocation of
pitiless exterminatng social war, published lately
as the Tenth bulletin, and to which alluded four
days ago.
A committee Of the Assembly was appointed Sc
veral months ago for the examination of claims on
account of losses sustained from the violence of the
luton Of ls4s. The examination was Instituted
with view to the appropriation by the Assembly
of sum for the satisfaction of these claims. The
action of this committee has elected mass Of Gu
rious information, portion Of which will, / think,
be not unwelcome to your columns. 1t illustrates
not very avoraby the value Of that reputation which,
in spite of many page of authentic history, would
still attribute to French mob, as distinguishing it
in its widest excesses from mobs of all other ma
tions-an innate politeness, respect for art and
science, an instructive sense Of honor honesty, and
Justice.
The largest private claim presented was that of
M. Rothschild, the wealthy Jew banker of Paris.
It amounted to $4,000, and was founded upon
the pillage and destruction by fire of splendid
country seat of the Baron's, on the banks Of the
Seine, near Paris. The only offence of M. Roths-
child, in the eyes Of the civilized polite, and in
honest mob, was the being rich.
The most interesting as we'll as the largest claim |
is that Of the Orleans family. LOUIS PHILIPPE |
during his life would never consent that the claim
should be made. His children since his death |
have also refused to make it, but MN. Dupin,
Scribe, Laplange, Barris, the Duke Of Montmoren-
cy, and Count de Montalive executors of the late
King and trustees for his grandchildren, have |
deemed it their duty to insist upon the claim, and
have presented the demand. They do not include |
in their demand the articles of personal property
belonging to the members of the royal family |
which were destroyed or stolen in the sack of the
Tuleres, nor the decorations of the orders sent to
the King by several foreign sovereigns though they
were enriched with diamonds and precious stones. |
