sional measures, but we cannot pronounce
the deposition of the dynasty.

ANOTHER SITTING
of the Legislative Body also took place yes
terday Twelve o'clock had been appointed
for commencing, but nothing had been done
at l; troops were stationed in front of the
building. The National Guard had been
refused the right side, which it considered its
due. Violent marks of discomfort were the
consequences on the part of one battalion,
which threatened to,,withdraw,a and even began
TO do SO. But cries arose on all sides of s'The
returned and took up the station it desired
on the Place de la Concorde. The Garde de
Paris, which was drawn up in front of the
| ratings of the Palais Bourbon, was called
| off, so that the civic guard was left master of
the place. The crowd of the general public
all around was immense, but with the excep-
| tion of frequent cries of ''Vive la Repub-
lique!" no political manifestation was made.
| The sitting opened at 1'20 o'clock NJ
Schneider presiding, The Left appeared
highly excited. When the minutes of the
preceding sitting had been read,
M. Glais-B Bizoin requested his name to be
added to M. Jules Favres motion.
NM de Jouvencel and Raspail made the
same request, and added in almost similar
words that they considered the dethronement
of the Emperor to be now the only resource
remaining to France.
Count de Keratry claimed for the National
Guard the exclusive right of protecting the
palace of the Legislative Body, and asked if
the Minister of War had given orders con-
trary to those of General Trochu
General de Palikao declared that there was
distinction between his powers and those of
General Trochu. The troops. not engaged
in the defense of Paris were at the disposal
of the Minister of War, and not of the gov
ernor of the capital.
M. Jules Favre-And the National Guard?
General de Palikao-The maintenance of
order in Paris is confde to General Trochu
and to the commander of the place. I have
only provided troops to secure liberty fer
your deliberations What do you complain
Of? Is it that put too easy game into your
hands? (Violent murmurs.) The army surely
is national force as well as the National
Guard. CNoise.)
M. Picard-Our questors alone should com
mand here.

and noise)
NJ Jules Favre begged to point out to tn,
Chamber the state of things to which tn
Government bill would give rise. If tn,
Chamber adopted urgency for the measure
he must claim it for his, and for two reasons
first, because he had presented it first; ant
secondly because it conferred larger power
on the Chamber than that of the Govern
ment.
