SURVIVORS OF THE COUP D'ETAT.
The appearance of group composed of
persons prescribed in the coup d'etdt Of
1851, or wounded in the revolution Of 184S,
everywhere elected fervent cheering
The first portion of the procession pre-
Sented an orderly and dignified aspect, but
the latter part was disorganized, owing to
the pressure of the crowds following, which
consisted mainly of a rabble, ana which
sang the 'Marsellaise" aud the "Carmag-
| nole."
MADE A MATTER OF JEST.
A number OF women Joined the ranks in
the heart of the city. This distracted from
the serious appearance of the procession
and the crowd was afterward inclined to
make the demonstration a matter for jest,
laughing and jeering at the delegates.
Some of the delegates were annoyed by e
jeers of spectators and falling out of the
ranks, disappeared into the crowd.
THE FOES OF CEsARIsM.
On arriving at the monument, NJ. Darlot,
president of the municipal council, de-
hvered an Grafton. He said that the object
of the demonstration was to commemorate
Baudin's intrepid defense of the republics
rights against Caesarism and to honor those
who had been prescribed OF had fallen at
the time of the coup d'etdt. After vigor-
GUS attack upon the Boulangerists. he said
''The democracy, having acquired strength
III the example of the glorious dead is pre-
pared to face CaeSarism, which is again
daring to raise its head. Confronted by the
noble memories of the past, let us unite
with confidence.
RECEIVED WITH CHEERS.
The speech was received with cries of
"Vive La Republique" and prolonged
cheers. There were no dissenting cries.
The procession filed past the monument
and then returned, singing the "Marseil-
laise." In the evening the city resumed its
normal aspect.
The Boulangist committee in its manifesto
declares that although it refrains from the
Baudin demonstration it venerates the
memory of Baudin. 1t urges the citizens
to withstand the provocations of the gov
ernment, which is seeking a chance to
create In Paris another second of December.
On the return of the procession to the
Quarter Latin, a crowd of students at
tackled two omnibusses filed with Bou-
langists The horses became frightened,
and one vehicle was backed into a shop in
Quai Voltaire. A serious scuffie followed,
and the police were compelled to interfere.
BoULANGER's ARRIVAL.
Gen. Boulanger arrived at Nevero this
morning. He was greeted by an order ly
crowd. Policemen prevented access to his
hotel to all except those provided with tick
cts for the banquet, thus preventing the
proposed public reception. Deputy Laporte
had tried in vain to induce the prefect to al
low the reception. A Boulangist manifesto
protesting against the projects action,
signed by various deputies, has been posted
throughout the town. At the banquet in
the evening there were fifty guests.
Gen. Boulanger was loudly cheered. Sim
| ultaneously an anti-Boulanger meeting was
held in theater, at which Deputies Basly
and Brialou denounced Gen. Boulanger
as a traitor and plagiarist of Napoleon.
| Gen. Boulanger, in a speech at the banquet,
| said that the situation now was just as dis
| graceful as it was in 1851. They must,
| however, go back to 1889 to find parallel.
| The same necessities existed at home, and
| there was the same need of organizing for
| the national defense. He repeated his
former arguments in favor of revision of
| the constitution, etc.
