mously a dignifed proclamation to the
people. The bonds of the Assembly and
Executive are drawn closer. The Mobiles
have offered to assist the Government

A Scare-Attitude of the Partisan
Deputies.
PARIS, March 1880 P. M-At one
o'clock this morning there was great ex-
citement and signals were fired from
rifles and cannon at Belleville and Mont
martre. 1t was q false alarm that the
Prussisns were coming. To-day the Jour-
nal Off1ciel publishes a proclamation in
the name of the public and the Garde
Rationale, deprecating acts of violence.
The Paris deputies publish manifesto
to electors, of which the following is a
synopsis: On the 10th inst. the people
of Paris insisted on the removal of the
Assembly to Earis, as that city only could
possibly be the capital of France. 1t is
necessary to avoid agitation while inVad-
ers are camped on the soil of France.
Because of their presence it is necessary
for the Assembly to hasten the delivery
of France and serve the Republic. The
proclamation is well received.
Outbreak Wednesday Eyening-The
Nationals Fire ON the People,
killing Five.
New YORK, March ga Paris spe-
cis says last evening about seven O'Clock
an outbreak occurred in the Place de Ven
1on1e. The insurgents had been very
much irritated by the proclamation the
National Assembly had issued and had
to resent with violence. The
temper of the general public, as they
stood around discussing the situation, was
sufficient to excite the anger of the Reds
for they were denounced on all hands and
their outrages spoken of in bitter terms.
One gentleman reproached the National
Guards for their timidity and their cow
ardice and their apparent sympathy with
The insurgents. The discussion grew very
heated and groups gathering together
all evidently ripe for mischief became so
that an order was given to the
Garde to clear the Place de
Vendome. The people refused to leave,
and the Gardes fired, killing five persons
and wounding many Others. This firing
was successful in clearing the Place de
Vendome, and as many of the crowd
were insurgents, with chassepots in their
hands, their indisposition to return the
fire was regarded as very significant
Paris has, however, became much calm6r,
and the absence of competent leaders
With the insurgents, induces the citizens
o believe that the rioters are not sup
ported.
