sivM the following description of scenes
n Paris after the outbreak Of the insur-
Though I havs::scen several heavy battles
anyine the war, never beheld such
seitstion ~ exists in Paris at this writing.
Nc stores arc closed, the shutters are up,
he people keep within doors, and only the
common few frequent tho Bouleevards.
ieeions Of honor, anc clothes and uni
Sorms of the limo are not seen, and
universal fear prevails in the popular
heart.
In company with q fervid but honest
msmber OF tho Red portions Of the Ma
t;onal Guards, I have visited all the scenes

10 mere ruse'' says another; and there
the crowds move up towards Montmartrc,
and the throngs in the boulevard in

All the streets look like civil war. No
carriages, no traffic, save pedestrians, and
long solemn faces, clouding all the high
ways. add 10 this dull, heavy, leaden feel
ing. A day with no sunshine, bu, dark,
murky and fcggy, and every one almost
chnt,ering from apprehension.
Iwalkcd up the boulevard slowly. All
thesgarcons. in the cafe were leaning
against the window panes, and all the res
;sursnts were nehrly deserted Of custom
srs Groups Of excited people filled the
streets, oil talking for the National
Guards. ! hardly comprehend this sent-
ment, which found every where. Those
who have the aspect Of being Of the haut
ton were even loudly dcclaiming for the
government
In from, Of the Cafe Porterc, higher up,
the pedestrians were crystalized into
crowds, even mobs. The beginning Of the
rue Druot, still higher up, and joining the
boulevards Montmartre and Des ltaliens
