THE ASSASSIN Alto N
ABROAD.
Demonstration of French Stu-
dents-The Republicans.

The Paris correspondent Of the New York
Times, in his letter of I'd inst, relates the
following:
There was an interesting demonstration
by the students of the Latin Quarter, at Mr..
Bigelow's, on Friday last. The organiza-
tion of this demonstration commenced on
Wednesday evening, Immediately after the
reception of the news Of the assassination.
The addresses-for the medical students had
one and the law students one-were drawn
up on Thursday, and the ceremony of pre-.
senting them was to take place ON Friday.
At the termination of Prof. Laboulsye's
lecture, which was devoted in part 10 oio.
graphy of Mr.. Lincoln, the students congre-
gated at the Pont st Michael, in the Boule-
ward de Sebastopol, to the number of about
l 800, to proceed in body to Mr.. Biselow's
house. But the police turned out hastily
in great force, for the Pont st. Michael is
within pistol shot of the headquarters of the
Police Department, and, unsheathing their
swords, managed in dispensing the greater
part of the crowd. y few squads, however,
OF less than twenty each, got away; but
when approaching Mr.. BigeIow's house,
which IS three miles away, tired, heated,
| excited and covered with dust. they found
| themselves again in pres nee Of polio men,
| who were actually barrie idlngtb Minister'S
door. After u tusslc, however, a certain
| number succeeded in getting in, and fortu-
| nately OF the number was a spokesman, a
handsome, Intelligent boy, who carried the
precious document in his pocket. When
everything was ready, this boy stepped for
ward TO the front Of his cDmrs des and read
| in a steady, clear voice the address which
had been prepared for the occasion, Mr..
| BigelOw replied in French, and assured the
boys, TO their great satisfaction, that the
| document should be sent to the President of
the United States.
One or two others then made volunteer
spce Genes relating to the minister-what trou.
be ;hcy had lad in getting there-how many
| they had lett on the route in the hands of
the p zee, and so on. When, after giving
tremendous cheer Of "LoDg live the great
| American Republic !" they retired, highly
satisfied with the success Of their enter
prise.
Son afterwards another student came in
all alone, by dodging around the house, but
he carrieda duplicate copy of the other, to
make sure Of Its arrival. In the meantime
The police We're stopping everybody who
came To the Legation, but upon O complaint
from Mr.. BigeIow this was stopped, and then
il rushed medical student alone who was
the spokesman Of his committee. He read
his address, Mr.. Bigelow replied, AID he re-
tired, highly pleased with his reception and
his exploit.
The speeches of the students have been
published in part, but they are too revolu-
tionsry for publication entire.
After these arrived deputation of the
opposition members of the Corps Legisia-
tin, among whom were NJ. Jules Favre, Gar
nier Psges and Picard, and as thess came in
string Of Yoitures, tho police, which now
numbered twenty-seven, made rush for
them, but when they saw who descended d
from the carriages they SUNK away and said
nothing. These gentlemen remained a long
time with Mr.. Bigelow, Messrs. Picard and
GARNER Pages both making speeches and
Mr.. Bigelow replying.

This Chamber has unanimously resolved TO
cover its flag with Grape for the space OF
three days, in token of mourning, and has
charged me to notify to you in a special mes
sage its grief, which is also that OF Italy, and
of all friends Of liberty and civilization
The news OF the attempt made to assassInate
Mr.. Seward has inspired the Chamber with
like sentiments. In readily, though sadly,
fulfilling the mission with which have been
charged, beg you will accept, Hon. Sir, the
assurance Of my sympathy and consideration.
