The crowd in and around the
hall of the Corps Legislatif is so
great that it is impossible to get a.
faithful account of the proceedings. 1t

places containing the words, "Death to.
Theirs" ~
General Trochu, answering the crowd,
said he had taken an OATH and as an honest
man, could not break it. The Chamber
must answer the people.
AT midnight crowds assembled before the
Corps Legislatif building, and shouted that

nation to make unyielding defense, and de-
clare the ACKNOWLEDGMENT of France impOssi-
Bile. They say the King of Prussia declared
he was only warning against Napoleon. If
it become evident that he is now warning
against the French people, the struggle
must be one of determination. The feet
must be ordered to the seaports of Ger

AS the Prussian armies treat the towns of
Alsace and Lorraine the enemy must be
made to feel what the United Republic of.
France can accomplish. All men here
must bear arms.
