and defense of Paris, although it may
he an act of treason to SPEAK thus to
the enemy. Such insinuations impose
the necessity of q reply, notwithstand-
ing the danger of doing so. All the
material necessary for the armament
of Paris is in Paris itself, where more
than SIX hundred cannon are already
mounted on the walls of those forts
which r likely to be first threatened
with attack, and the work of placing
other pieces in position continues with
out interruption, day and night. Yes
terday seven thousand five hundred
working men were engaged in cutting
off the streets leading into Paris. This
work has been completed, and nothing
remains but to close up the openings
in the walls and place the draw bridges
in position. Thousands of laborers
are occupied outside the walls on
earthworks, mines, bitches, etc.,
which are to connect and complete the
network of Notifications around the
capital. These facts and figures We
are obliged TO give in order to reply
to peridious and erroneous insinua-
tons. and to restore confidence of IL
good citizens. Ii such questions should
be renewed, their authors will have TO
answer tor. their conduct before a
council OF war, where they will be sub

more than ever, when justice cannot

opinion OF Europe does justice to the
heroic courage of u soldiers, and the
energy with which the whole nation
rises as one man, prepared to repair
unexpected reverses. Our enemies
counted on party divisions which
would add treason to tine national
cause. The patriotism of the Cham
bers and country have disappointed
their calculations. In the Corps

last limit Of vigor the spirit of devotion

it has that active and loyal CO opera

The session of the 10th Of August
will distinguish that day a. among the
most noble in our parliamentary an

der the inspiration of sentiments more
elevated. This attitude Of the cham
bers is both encouragement and recon-
pense for the troops. The soldiers
feel that the Whole nation is behind
