Resolved, That ~ ars here to-day to ro-

heretofore made the Democracy tho conquer

Resolved, That this Convention most SOL
EMMY declares its warm attachment to the
Union Of States, to maintain which it pledges
all ito powers, and that for this end it is our
duty to oppose every infraction Of those prin-
cipies which constitute the only basis Of that
Union, because faithful observance Of them

PARIS, March IA.

Silence Porgie! The famous cry of M.
de CassAgnac VAS hurled at tho Bohemians
of the little Press, the sans cni0ttss OF literal
ture, for their revelry in obscenities, and their
clamoring after personalities. We, in turn,
msy hurl 1t at the orgies of the carnival, the
revelries OF the masked ball, the debauchees
OF the private cabinet. Even in high places
the noisy riot goes on. At the Palace, ct the
Ministries, noble ladies in 6esh-colored cov-
erings represent half clothed Bacchantes,
with flowing bowls and festive songs. Ve-
| nuses, with voiuptious poses and amorous
jests, false Vestals outraging tho memory Of
| their ancestors, and Dianas more resembling
her OF Poitiers, than that other one Of the
