since the evae uation Of Paris by the Aus

has been disturbed by the breaking out OF mob
violence at the Ancient Capitol, in which the
greatest excuses have been INDUCED in by the
populace. The mob have seized upon many
of the Fortresses and fortified positions in and
around the City Of Paris, and turned the guns
which were put in place for the defense Of the
city, against the government, and riot and blood
shed have ruled the city for some days. Many
persons have been brutally and wantonly as
sassinated, assaulted and maltreated Several
person. Of Military and Civil distinction have
been arrested, tried by mob law and executed
The government has fed from Paris, and the
American Minister has taken his departure,
and followed the government to Versailles.
The Insurgents have been steadily gaining
strength since the outbreak, and now hold the
Tuilleries and other important places.
The Insurgents are led by Reciotti Garibaldi.
Arms have been distributed to the populace,
and the appearances now are that the Revolu-
tionary movement Will extend and spread over
all France. What the end will be no one knows
but it is evident that it is not yet.
