ton of a municipal council TO be elected by the
| suffrageS of all citizens. What is most wanted
now is order in liberty and by liberty"

| cial journal, headed "0f1cial journal of Repub-
| lican Federation" 1t contains the following
manifesto originating in the suhrages of 215
battalions of the national guard. 1t repudiates
| disturbances; the government calumnates Paris
and arms the provinces; it imposes upon us
commander and attempts night disarmings; it
removes the capital and UNANIMOUSLY seeks to be-
smear over honor withEboody filth. The nation-
al have participated in no crime"

nesday. The Journal also announces that the
committee will abdcate power upon the election
of a new one by the people. The committee is
firm in its decision to respect the pTeliminaries
of peace for the sake Of the republic. An APP

to the cause. The Journal also contains an ex-
hortation to the press to respect the republic,
justice and truth. A complete political amnes-
ty is promised. The courts which have proved
partial are to be abolished The committee re-
pudiates all participation in the execution of

have entered and sealed up the offices Of the

Paris must proclaim herself n free autonomous
republican city. The nationals have discovered
fresh stores of arms and ammunition, and now
completely possesses the whole city. The trades
people of Versailles are discontinued at the con.
ditOn of affairs, and are impatient for the de-
cision from the national assembly.
Many persons were shot without trial on SUM-
day in Paris. The nationals will shoot Theirs
and Generals Vinoy and Paladines if they are
captured. There is strong reaction among the
respectable portions of the inhabitants. The
central committee is alarmed thereat, and seeks
mediation of the mayors of the city for the ap-
pointment of Admiral Soisset to command the
nationals.
LONDON, March 20.-0rders have been issued
by the German military authorities, stopping the
departure of German troops from France, and
ordering strong bodies Of troops TO points nearer
Paris. A large force of Germans has entered
and reoccupied St. Denis. 1t is believed that this
action is the result Of the revolutionary move
ment in Paris.
PARIS, March 1.-La Sante has been shame
fully treated and beaten by the revolutionists,
and his sister has also been arrested. The thirst
for blood, on the part Of the revolutonists, man.
ifests itself as dsgustingly as ever and the life
of no official of the government is safe. Con-
sternatiOn prevails among all classes. The in
Surgents at Montmartre and BelleVile saluted
each other at daybreak this morning. New
barbados have been erected in the neighbour
hood of Batgnales and in Rue dAmsterdam, in
Avenue Clichy and in the great Northern rail-
way station.
President Theirs has given most positive orders
to General Vinoy for the suppression of the riots,
but has accompanied the orders with express
sionS of hope that the insurgents will listen to
reason. Gen. Vinoy has $4,000 troops, but great
fears are expressed that no reliance can be placed
upon his men.
