riage through the Place De La Con

the public were not pc 'rmltted to eros
the bridge; that large bodies of in
fantry and cavalry were drawn up on
the quay to protect the Cham bers
that excited crowds ineum bered the
Place De La COncOrde and the para
pets of the quay, and that platoons of
4 cavalry and guards were continually
clearing the way between the Place
De La Coneorde and the wing of the
Tuileries next the Seine.
The Tuilerits Gardens were shut
up, and a large force was put under
arms TO protect the Empress.

when President Schneider took his
seat in the Chamber.
Olivier mounted the tribune and
endeavored to read a speech, identical
with that delivered in the Senate by
, EsquIras, but he was so much inter-
rupted that very little was heard.
The members of the Left cried cut
continually that the safety Of the
country required the dismissed of the
Ministry. Olivier made a pompous
appeal 10 the confidence OF the
| Chambers, without which he would
not remain Ia office a moment longer.
Dumauly, of the Left Centre, in his
own name, moved that Gen. Trochu
be called upon to form a Ministry.
Jules Favre proposed in terms, that
the Chamber should assume full pow
er to save the country. The incapao-
ity of the Emperor TO command the
army has been proved, aud he
should be recalled. A tremendous
row ensued. The vice of the Presi-
dent was heard pronouncing the tru-
ism, The motion was sunconstitution-
al, and he added You will never
make a revolution with this Cham
Der" Olivier, In an excited state,
said. M. Jules Simon has asked M
whether we mean to have all the op-
position deputies shot. What an
swer he made, the tumult rendered
it impossible to collect.
Count De Keratry proposed that the
Chamber now treat Napoleon Ill. as
the Chamber treated Napoleon in
1875
Olivier demand d an hour for con-
sideratiOn, and went at once to the
Empress.
L adhere to the opinion that the
Empire is on its last legs, but it will
die hard and involve millions in its
ruin. The rumOr Of the evening is,
that a thorough reactionary and per-
sonal Ministry will be formed, on the |
state Of seige principles, the leading |
rome David, Count Palikao, Of Sum
mer Palace notoriety, and Duke De
Persigny
The Gaulois gives the extraordina-
ry intelligence that Persigny was the
author Of the false news that Prince
Frederick Charles had been made
prisoner.
No kilograms have been receivedin in
London from Paris since Tuesday
noon.
The proposal Of the Left, yester-
day, contains the following:
lnasmuch as the incapacity of the |
Chief of State has brought France in |
to peril, and caused the loss Of two |
great battles in spite of. the heroic
valOr Of our soldiers, first, commit
tee Of national defense is constituted
In the National Assembly, composed
OF fifteen members; second, until
further ordered this committee shall |
be placed over all existing author.-
ties; third, it shall summon all citi-
zens to arms fourth, every act tend
ing to Obstruct the acts Of the com
mittee shall be considered crimes
against the nation"
This was what brought on the vio-
lent scene la the Chamber, Of which
all is not yet known.
METZ, August 9, 1:52 A.M.-The
Emperor went this. morning to Mar
shal BazaiDe's headquarters.
Bazaine takes command Of the
troops united at Metz
General De Jean is in command of
the third corps
The Emperor was we'll received.
Mcmahon mas rallied the bulk of
his army, and is falling back upon
Nancy In good order.
MANNHEIM, August 9-The wound
ed Of both the German and French
are still arriving ia hundreds, from
the frontier. The hospitals are
crowded.
The second line is moving forward,
and the reserves are taking its place.
LONDON, Aug. 10.-There was an
important error 10 the Paris letter Of
this morning. Instead of eight ma
jority against Duvernois' motion, as it
read, six votes only were against.
A later dispatch from our Paris
special correspondent, of Tuesday
night, says that no description can
do justice to the confusion of the
Corps Legislatif. 1t was known in
advance, by many members, thGt an
order had come from Metz to turn
out Olivier. The Emperor is seek
ing to propitiate Paris by sacrificing
the most unpopular and least respon-
sible of his advisers.
Jules Favre's plain proposal for a
revolution was partly due to knoWl-
edge that Olivier would be succeeded
By a pure personal and reactionary
ministry. The personal conflicts with
the ministers were not confined to the
Left. Cassagnae's threat to shoot the
