LOUIS NAPOLEON BoNAPARTE,
On Monday, the s n, the President Issued the
following proclamation:
The disturbances are appeased. Whatever
may be the decision of the people, society is
saved The first part of my task is accomplished.
The appeal to the nation to terminate the con-
fiicts of parties would cause, knew, no serious
risk to public tranquility. Why should the peo-
pie rise against me? Ii | no longer pos ess

is not necessary to Gauss precious blood to flow

urn. shall always respect the decree of the
people. But until the nation shall have spoken, |

to battle the attacks of the factions. This task,

hand, it has been seen how insensato it is to
struggle against an army united by the ties Of
discipline, and mated by the sentiment of mill
tary honor, a ID by devotedness to the country
On the other hand the calm attitude of the in.
habitants of Paris, and the reprobation with
which they brand emeutes, have sufficiently test
fled for whom the capital has pronounced. In
the popuious quarters in which formerly insur
rection rapidly found recruits among workmen
easily led away, anarchy this time only met with
! profound repugnallce for its detestable excita-
tons, Thanks be rendered for it to the intelli-
gent and patriotic population of Paris. Let il
persuade Itself more and more, that my sole
ambition is to assure the repose and prosperity
of France. Ilat it continue to lend its coop
| Grafton to the government, and in short time
the country can calmly accomplish the solemn
act which is to inaugurate Il new era for the
republic.
