OFFICIAL REPORTS OF THE RIOTS AT PARIS.
Tours, Nov. 4.-The following official
report of the recent riots at Paris are given
to the public to-day: I
About noon on the 3lst, groups Of people
assembled in the place De la Hotel de Vile.
They were much excited by false rumOr
that the government had agreed To an armis-
ticc. The crowd SO pressed against the
dc, rs Of the Hotel de Vile that they were
forced open, and about 200 persons endeav-
ored 10 enter the hall, where members Of
the government hold sessions. This they
were prevented from doing by Garde Mobiles
on guard i'm the vicinity, and at l o'clock
large numbers of the National Guards, who
were armed, crowded into the
place De la Hotel de Vile, already
filled to excess with sureing mass of peo-
pie At this time Henry Rochefort arrived
in an open carriage, and vainly endeayored
to address the people; the latter, however,
refused to listen to him, shouting constantly.
Gen. Trochu then came forward and ad-
dressed the crowd. He reviewed what was
being done to render Paris imprcgnable, aud
expressed his utmost devotion TO the Re
public and to the people. He was not lis
tened to, the people shouting continuously
and demanding dismissal of the present
government. A great tumnlt ensued. Au-
vergne, aid-de-camp Of Gen. TrOchu, was
thrown down, and his soldiers, with great
difficulty, Withdrew him from the hands Of
the mob. Crowds kept pressing into the
Hotel de Vile. Favre and Rochefort vainly
tried meanwhile to be heard. Guards,
having banners inscribed with the words,
.Viye Republique" q Resistance-No ar
misticew kept crowdins the place, when
suddenly pistol shot was heard, and many
of the crowd quickly dispersed, spreading
the alarm through the city that the govern
ment had fired upon the people. At last
the truth began to be understood, and it was
made known that the person who had fired
the pistol had been arrested. The advocates
of the Commune, however, had possession
of the Hotel de Vile, and they proceeded
at once to hold elections. They threw their
bulletins from the windows to the people
below, but they were. all different, which
showed there was no accord among the
rioters. s..-..f.
Victor Hugo, Felix Pyatte and Ledra
Rollin were among the persons rumOred as
Directors. At o'clock in the evening

back. heading a battalion of the National
Guards of Belleville At 8 o'clock it was
understood that General Trochu would leave
the Hotel de Vile along the Boulcvards and
and Place Vendome. This created enthusi-
asm There were then unanimous shouts
of down with the Commune, drums began to
beat on all sides and the National Guard
marched upon the Hotel de Vile 70 establish
order They soon surrounded it and threat
ened to shoot Favre, Simon and Pages,
whom they had in their power. They were
warned, however, not TO commit such crime
At this time General Trochn appeared on
horseback ut the head of his staff, amidst
the most enthusiastic EXPLANATIONS. The

government and received the p!audits Of the
people All disorder will hereafter be re-
