his country in the capacity OF soldier to entering the
stormy career OF politics. So. c,..4

merited rebuEe to the members for their noisy and
unruly conduct, telling them that II they wished to
business OF the nation they must conform to strict
parliamentary rules. III. Grtvy Is a large, fne-look-

kers, and as seen from the reporters gallery bears
striking resemblance TO King William. The
reprimand was administered rig mt royalty and has
not been without its effect this being the quietest
day we have had yet, although there were two or
three little incidents which might have led to The
usual disturbances If the members had not made an
effort to contain themselves
Ill. Louis Blanc put in petition asking that the
members OF the Paris government be requested 10

his petition and was immediately assailed with cries
OF "Tae signatures ~ 1.-THE signatures ~ which he
declined reading, however, and descended from the
tribune looking dehantly at the Assembly as il ask

NJ. MlIliere followed NJ. Delescluze with petition
worded differently but having the same end In view,
