    lHE FKENCH DEVOLUTION .

    ESTABLISHMENT OF A REPUBLIC We gave in our latest edition , published on Saturday evening , a telegraphic despatch , announcing the proclamation of a Republic , and the formation ot a regular ministry , provisionally nominated t 9 perform tae functions of the several departments . We nor ? report some incidents of the struggle at greaser length than previjusly given . TUB BT RMlSOr OF THE PALAH-ItOTAL AND THE TU 1 LIEIKS . The abdication of Louis Pirilippe , saya tho correspondent of the Mohnixq Chronicle , came too late . The tardy cancession cuuld not save the dynasty or even its palace . It was about this time that

    tric Joured flags began to appear , with the words ' Republic' rudely traced upon tbera . The terrible cry became also frequent oi a la pounce Louis Philippe-At hall-past twelve the attack on the Palais-Royal commenced , and from that moment till half-past one the firing was incessant . The Palais-Royal was taken by storm after a battle which lasted tor nearly an kour . The Palace oi the Tuilerie 3 did noc make so much resistance . At half-paat one it surrendered , and was taken possessioa of by a regiment of the National Guards and several thousands of the people . The carnage on both aides must have been very great . The computation is th . it it was upwards oi 500 killed and wounded , Dut tlita is probably an exaggeration .

    The Queen and the Duchesses of Nemours and Montpenaier left the Palaea in some of the royal carriages at one o ' clock , escorted by a largo body of cuirassiers and dragoons . They directed their way along the quay between the garden of the Tuileries and the river , which was still in the hands of the troups , and crossed the Place de la Concorde , towards the Barrere da Passy . Beyond the barrier it is not known ( to me ) what course they took , but no doubt it i ? a 3 to one uf the nuineroua royal palaces in that direction . It was supposed generally that Louis Philippe accompanied the Queen and royal family in their flight . I understand the fact to be , that immediately afcer the abdication Louis Philippe ) left the palace by the garden of the ' l

    uiieneg , accompanied by two ft lends , and disguised en bon bourgeois . He walktd from the garden through some ot the narrower streets ( in which he must have had to scramble over several barricades ) to the station of the Rouen Railway , and took his seat in the tra n , which started aimost immediately afterwaids , not in a first but a second-class carriage . This 1 am informed by a person holding Borne rank in the provisional government , is the way in which the King of the Barricades left his capital . I shall low return to the insurgents , who , as I have said abt > ve took the Palais-Royal and the Palace of the Tuilertes by storm . As soon as the firing at this Palais-Royal had stopped ( and not one moment sooner ) , I thought it might De worth my while to sec

    what was doing . Witu great difficulty I tended my way over some halt-dozen of barricades in the Rue Vivienne to th « Palais- Ruyal . The grilles had been opened , aud the garden was nearly empty , i he fighting having been outside , I saw le-w-of the slaiu , but £ lhere were a lew oi the wounded in the G-alerie d'Orieans , where they were attended . to by lads in bluuses , aud armed witli muskets , pikes , and cutlasses , but with a degree of care and attention tiiai quite surprised me . Proceeding to the garden court , 1 became lor the first time aware that not only the garden of the Palace , but the Palace itself , was in the hands of the people . 1 found a huge tire burning in the centre of the court , uatf , upon asking a respectable citizen , who , though he bad not the advantage ot

    possessing either a shirt or a blouse , was neverih ^ ieas very civii , what the meaning ot the bonfire was , he told me it was the lurniture of the Palace . The fact , turned out to be so . trile chairs , splendid pictures , canopies , table * , and all the other etceteras ot a splendidly furnished palace , were to be seen every seound emerging from die windows of the palace , which were forthwith ibru 3 t into the fire . At length a very splendid cnair appeared , w hich must be known to many of your readers : it was the throne upon which Louis Philippe sat lor the first time as king , before he went to the Palace of tho Tuileries , and has ever since been pointed out at the palace vn tuat

    account as a relic . It was , however , ou this occasion mercilessly thru = t into tLe the , aiuidst ihunucrs >; 1 applause , and in a lew minutes the real throne ot Luuis Philippe crumbled into dust , like the power of which it was th * s symbol . Tnesplendid silk velvet draperies , wilh the nia ^ nificent goid Lriuiuiin ^ a , soon followed . White tliis waa going on , numerous blouses and bayonets were to be seeu occasionally ao the windows of the palace , and the loui crash of the magnificent mirrors was from time to lime to Oe heard , as they shivered under the relentless blows ot their destroyers , lu short ,, the Palais-Royal was sacked as completely as it was in 17 S 9 , and in a much shorter apace of time .

    J was notable to visit tho Palace of the Tuileriea till lute in the day . About halt-past five I weut to it , and I then found it JiceraiJy gutted . The garden oi the Tuileries was literally strewed with dresses , bonnets , music bouks , and other ladies' gear . The furniture and other solius had been already nearly ail burnt , but there was still enough to furnish fuel for three huge fires , tlxo one in the Rue Rivoli , and the others on the quay . Another account / says : —In the Tuileries all objects of art were respected , as well as the furniture aud decorations of all ttie apartments , appropriated to public purposes , the only exceptiou to this being the Uanniess indulgence of triumph , exhibited in carrying off the throne aud bearing i& in triumphal procession through the town . When the populace entered , a few of their leaders annouueed to them rules of conduct , which they willingly accepted . individuals were posted at the several doors to see that no person departing should carry away any valuables . This was scrupulously enforced , evenaa respected the most trivial * " ' ¦"""¦ „ . „ Ml

    The Reforms gives the loilutvtug account of THE CONFLICT AT THE PALAIS R&YA 1 . About half-past twelve a hundred citizjn . 3 went on the Place du Palais-Rujal before the Ciiateau-d ' - Eau , the post of which was occupied by a company of tue 14 . h regiment ot the line . The ordinary cry , ' Arms ! arms ! ' having been heard , the citizens advanced towards the doub : c flight of stairs conducting to the tost . The soidiers allowed them to approach , then on ihe summons which was mudo to them , ob > stinately refuged to give up their muskets , although iheytwtre demanded , alter the formal engagement to allow the whole p < J 3 t to leave freely , and eveu to protect it if necessary . Such was the ntBt act ot the Dioody but glorious tragedy which was to be

    perlormea on the Piace du Palais-Royal . During nearly an hour the crowd increased , and remained pressed against the corps de-garde , without eniplojing any other means than persuasion ; but all was useless . Soun after General Lamoriuiere entered the Piace du Palais- Kojal , followed by his aide-de camp , and by two officers if the staff of the National Guard ; they advauced towards the post , aud thuir reiterated demands again remained without result . Our readers will understand the irritation of the brave citiz . ns , who , in order to be able to tire with their brethren of the prefioua evening , only waited lor muskets ; they will underataiid the anger of the armed citizens , wflo , lor two dava had seen at their aide men , supported only by their admirable courage ,

    fail without having been able to fire a ball against thuse who sent balls ac them in every street . Thus the great act of the drama was not long in commencing . A majestic barricade was erected at the curncr ot the Rue de Valois , which \ % intercepted , as well as the Rue St ilonore . On the other aide of the Place du Palais-R / jyal a raasa of citizens grouped themselves , and were sooo joined by the men who were not able to obtain the muskets of the company of the 14 th . Some shots were discharged , as if to manifest the iirac agitation of the anger of the people . Tu those Shots the guard replied , and soon irom both sites of the pi ice , and on the side of tho soldiers , a terrible fudllude was engaged . How many brave citizens fell , whose admirable courage

    was worthy of a better lot . But the country thia time will not be ungrateful towards them hi towards their memory . The . National Guard was already active ; as tho people , with the people , it fought—we mean such of thecitizen Boldiera as had bteu able to procure powder and bullets , two things which had been obstinately refused them . During two hours the combat continued with the warmth and vivaeity of a siege and an apsault . To state the episodes ot this leat ofarmBis a thing which we will not undertake at this moment , for ten journals would not suffice to record what was accomplished during two hours . Here were children , with abirts already bioody , who seemed to demand new , wounds ; there were National Guards alone , or accompanied ) j citizens in blouses or in Teals , who remained bravely m the miasii of the place , and fired without retreating , under the shower ef balls which poured on them . The post ef the Palais-Royal was invaded , and the soldiers

    , in facing those of the 14 th , nobly fraternised with the people , and people andaoldiera thus placed themselves in the Courd'Honneur , from which they fared on the Chateau d'Eau . Irreparable misfortunes were the result of this long struggle ; most of them were occasioned by the temerity of courage and even of humanity . Citizens and Nalonal truard 3 advanced to the corps deearde of the Chateau u Eau , and balls fired by their brethren uniortunately struck them . However , nothing was done against tue soldier * of the post , who , from despair , or obedience to pitiless orders , kept up a warmly sustained fire from the doer ofthe Corps de Lr irde and the upper rooms . During this time the carnage :, of the Court wore brought on the Place du falais-Koyal ; and soon after they were destroyed ai an immense feu de joie . The people who regarded the flames , appeared to see the last splendours ot royalty vanish in Bmoke . But several brave men advanced ( k » th ^ side of the Cafe de la Regence , nearer the place In which these carriages burned , and , placing themselves behind the royal vehioles , ecomiHenced the r firing . The aoldiera in the Corps de Garde , which had more than once bsen considered empty , still continued to lire . At length

( From the Times . )

    . The Chateau of the Tuileries is naturally the win cipal object of attraction . Much of the furniture has been removed or destroyed , but little or no plan . Her was perpetrated . la this respect the people of 2 fT ^ Tn ^ i'X ? itated th 8 Conduct ^ «» ««««» ot July , 1830 . All who presented thenuelves yesterday were allowed to view and visit the palaoe ; and on leaving all were searched and deprived of every , thing that they might have been tempted to purloin forsouvemrs One man caught in the aOt Of plundering was shot instantly .

    Than this nothing more honourable for the na . tional character could be adduced . Throughout the whole ofthe troubles of Prance , and the series of sufferings inflicted on them by distress , pillage of private residences has never been committed . ' War t « the Chateau' was proclaimed and acted upon , but sheer positive robbery never took place . I nm induced to dwell on these facts because ef the feeling of alarm abroad lest the city be pillaged by the male , factors kflown to lie present in the oapitil . There is a romantic , and what is better a genuine , sense of honour in the hearts of the i eople , that will thia time , as hitherto distinguish them .

    CAPTURE Or THE TUILBRIES . The following details of the inking ofthe Tuileries , which we copy from the Reporme , will be read with groat interest : — Different versions of the taking of the Tulleries have bepn given . The event seema to us of suoh importance as to have canned U 9 to seek to know the details . We give them as exact and na circumstantial as possible . The 5 th Legion of the National Ganrd , having its Major , iU Lieutenant Colonel , two Chiefs of Battalions , and several r . ffleers at itR bead , marched on the Tuileries . It had arrived at the Rue da l'Echelle , when firing was heni-fl on the Plnca du Pululs Royal ; it wis the post of the Chateau d'Eau which recotnmencid the combat . At the same 'in'tnnt the legion hagtened to the place

    the firing took place , and with It tha tlioassnds of combatants who followed it . At this moment Marshal Gernrd appeared with a branch of verdure in hid hand , enjoining tho combatants to cease fifing . The post of the Chatetu refused , and the combat continued . The Muraba ) returned to tho corner of the Rue Saint Honore . At that moment an officer of the Chateau nppeared , bearing a pipor in his hand—it was the abdication of Louis Philippe . Tho document was taken from the hands of tho officer by a lieutenant of the 5 th legion , tho citizen Aiibort Roche , nnrt remitted to bo preserved to the citizen IiSErange , ef Lyons . The firing costinued . It was fearod that tho troipg confiaed In the TuilerUa rrould come to Jake tho combatants by the flask . A reconnaissance had been made . 'Within the railings there

    were three thousand infantry , six pieces of cannon in batter } , two squadrons of dragoons , without countisg tV . e arme 3 guardians , and some municipal guards . This force , protected by ths railiog and the artillery , could . ob this large place , if it had been attacked , give rise to a Moody liattle—everything was to be feared . A profound silence reigned , and it was only interrupted bj the fusillade of the Plnce du Palais Royal , and tome musket shots at the trneps within the Chateau . It wan learned that the 1 st , 2 nd , 3 rd , 4 th , 6 th , and 10 th legions gurroundedtVieTui'eries , and that the others were on the march . Tfeo combat was imminent . It was then that lieutenant Aubert Roche , advancing towards tbe railing near the Rue <' e IVvoli , caused the commandant of the Tuileries to be sent for . That person arrived

    with great ff-ar . ' You are lost ! ' cried tbo lieatcnant . ' You arepurround ( d , and a combat will be engaged , if you do not rvncnatfi the Tuilerica and giv ? them up to the National Guard . ' The commun ? ant , uaderstrii'lMi ? the position , caused the troops to be ranged in l ' . ne against tho Chateau , without causing them to leavd . Before that thfj hail been drawn up in wftelWlJ , Seeing that the movement of retreat was not effected , citix'n Aubert Roohe , acoempanied by the citizen Leeueur , Chefde Balaillon of the Lairny . Uincy , who joined the 5 th legion , ran to tbe railiac of the Rue de Rivoli , knocked , and announced themselweg with a flig of truce . The gate ffaa Opened , and both of them , unaccompanied with their bwords in their hands , entered into the midst of the court , which waa full of soldiers . The

    Commandant of the Tuileries advanced , flaying , that he bad caused the troops to be withdrawn . ' Thnt i < not pnouffb , ' said the L ' entenant , * Tho palace must be evacuated , if not , misfortune will happen . ' The Commandant of the Tuileries then conducted the two officers before thePavi ion de l'Horloge , where stood several Generals , and the Duke de Nemours , all witb consternation Imprenxed on thuir faces . 'Monseigncur , ' said the C . immnnd 3 ut of the Tuileries , ' here is an excellent citiz n , who will give you tbe means of , preventing the effuavou of blood . ' \ Thut must bo done V said the prince ina trembling voice to the Lieutenant who was presented to him ? ' Sir , you must evacuate the palace at this very Instant , and give it up to the National Guard ; if you do not ,

    you are Io 9 t . The combat will ba & bloody one ; the Tuilories are surrounded ; the 5 th legion , of which I form a part , is fighting at this moment at tho Palais Jtojal , with its major and superior officers at itt headi Take care that the combat docB not cease before these troops have left ; if not , tho battle will be engaged even here , in spite of you . ' ' You think so V replied the Duke . ' I will make the troops retire , ' And , at the same Instant , in presence of two officers of the National Guard , he gave tha ordtr to retreat . - The Artillery went by the railing of tha palace , and the staff and the Duke de Nemours by the Pavilion de l'Horloge , their horses descending the flight of steps . The cavalry followed them , then tho infantry . It was even forgotten to relieve tho posts who remained . The citizen , Aubtrt

    Roche , charged himself to introduce tbe Natienal Guard in the Palace . He went to warn the Natinnal Guard , who were then near tho staff . The National Guard then put the butt-end of their muskets in tbe air , and entered the Court of the Tuileries , by the railing of the Rue de Rivoli , accompanied by the curious , all quite astonished to find thomBelvca masters of tbe Palace , A q'tarrer of an hour after tbe combat ceased on the Place do Palais Royal , tbe combatants hastened to attack the Tuileries , but they found the gates opened . Thus was taken , or rather surrendered , the redoubtable fortress . A National Guard made a summons in the name of the armed people , and royalty evacuated the place . ' ( From the correspondent of the TELtoRAPH . )

    The people immediately invaded the palace of the Tuileries . They werq an immense mass . I went into the palace amonpr them , about an hour after they had first effected an entry . _ The scene was a moat extraordinary one . I despair of being- ab'e to describe it . Tho people went through all the different apartments , shouting , yellinir , and roaring the Marseillaise . There were alas , at timea , terrific cries of Down wita Lnui 9 Philippe ! ' Soma of the mob rolled themselves with a sort of frantic delight on what was pointed out to them aa the king ' s bed , as the Queen's bed , aathe late Mad . Adelaide ' sbed , aDd as tbe beds ii the princesses . Others threw themselves on the costly sofas , and jsquatted in the arm chairs . Others put on the livery of the domestics , and certainly it was impossible to avoid laughing at the grotesque appearance which they presented —little boys , for example , figured in the immense

    red coats made for men of six ieethigh , whilst others donned the tremendous cooked hats which the Royal Swiss wear , or rather wore . OtherB again went into the pantries and helped themselves to all the food they contained . Others brrke into the cellars and drank the wine . But no wanton injury was done to property , at least whilst I was in tho palace , Even the mo 3 t delicate chimney ornaments were left untouched ; the playthings ofthe royal children were not injured . On the portraits and busts of the king , however , the mob . had no mercy ; they cut and hacked them with their swords and bayonets with a sort of wild frenzy of hate and revenge . One welldressed person , seeing them about to destroy a valuable portrait of his Majesty , by Horace Vernet begged that It might not bo injured , out of respect to the great painter , but tbe appea ] did Dot save it . The only other painting whioh I saw injured was one of Marshal Soult .

    Before I arrived at the Tuileries ihe mob had carried the throne mte the court-yard , w here it was destroyed , tut 1 repeat that , whilst I \ m in the palace , so far aa I saw , nothing was wantonly destroyed except the portraits and busts of the kini ? The carnages , however , were dragged out and burned . In the Palais Royal , which the mob broke into before going to the Tuileries , they smashed and destroyed books , pictures , looking glasses , busts , furniture .

    You may perhaps hear from different sources that the ruilenes were pillaged . This is not the fact Some jewels , Borne minor articles of dress , and some private correspondence , were taken away or de-Btroyed , and a good deal of wine was drunk ; but , genera ly speaking , the people acted with the most scrupulous honesty . In the Palais Royal , however , which is the private property of the king , they de-Btroyed everything they could put their hands on , without any exception ; but they did not break the furniture and property in the apartments of private individual . The streets by the side of the Pa ' ais Royal , and the court-yard oi it , are at this moment several inches deep in tho remains of the confiscation . A LESSON 1 ? OB ROJAL FOLKS AT HOME .

    The 'lion and unicorn' arms erected over the doors of the British embassy were torn down . The shop of Roberts , the apotheoary , in tho Rue de la Paix , encountered the especial hostility of the populace .

    The armB were not only torn down , but the windows and everything in them entirely destroyed . Some threatening manifestations were made at the gate of the British embassy in . tho Rue Fauboug St Honore , over which the British arms are sculptured . It does not appear , however , that any act of positive outrage was committed . CHAMBER OF DEPUTIES—Sitting of Feb . 24 . THE DL'CUEBS OP OEtEANS AHD THE COUNT DE JABIS INVA 6 ION OF THE CBAHBEB BY THE ABMBD P £ OPLE VIVE IA HIPOBLIQDE !

' The President tsolr the chair at one o'clock . About three hundred dtputipg were present from the commencement of the sitting , but nothing was done for aovne time . __

    M , C . Lafsitte : Gentlemen , I address myself to all parties in this chamber , particularly t © the member ; of the ejttremitio » , praying them to keep down oil angry passions . ( Hear , hear . ) Looking at the elrcums'tmcoB in which wo arc now placed , I propose to the chamber to declare itself in permanenc •; ( Loud cries of 'Tea , yes . ' ) M .

' ) The rBE 6 iDENT : Thore cannot be any other question of permanence than this—tho Chamber has opened Its sitting , and will remain so as long ; as no motion be made to . adjourn it . ( Hear , hoar . )

    About lialf-past one it was rumoured about that the Duchess of Orleans and the two young Princes , her eons , Were about to arrive . Shortly after a movement was appirent in the passage on tho left of tbe Chamber , and the DucUess and ber ' two sons entered , followed by the Duke da Nemours and ^ the Duke de Montprnsier . The Count de Paris entires ! tirst of a \ l , a person holding him by tho hand . With difficulty he penetrated os fur as the semicircle in front of the President's chair , so ( ncambered was it with deputies and National Guard ? . His presence , and that of the re ? t of the royal party , created a great sensation . The Duchess seated herself in an arm-chair with her sons ot each side of ber , in the wide choir just mentioned .

    Almost inimediut' : !} - after , the passages to tbe various parts of the Chamber were filled with an immense body of ° the people and National Guards , both armed . Oriet of'You cannot enter ! ' ' You have no right to enter ! ' were then hoard , but the nest moment a number of men belonging to the people forced their way Into the Chamber , and placed themselves right under the tribune . Tbe Duchess of Orient then rose , and taking the young PrlnccB by the . han < i , led them to the rango of suats forming tho pouttour behind tho deputies , and still exactly in front of the Presideat . The Duke de Nemours and the Duke do Montpensier placed tbetneelves in the last line of seats , immediately behind tbe Princess and her son ? . Tho greatest agitation pre . vailed in every part of tho Chamber , and it was a moment after iDcreasod by the public tribunes beiog rushed Into by another body of the people .

    M Dopin then ascended the tribune , and amidst deep silt-nee , said : Iu the present situation ofthe capital , and the critical circumstances in which the country is placed , tbe Chamber was bound to assemble immediately . The King has just abdicated . ( Sensation . ) He has disposed of tbe crown in favour of his grandson , tbe Count de Paris ; ana has constituted tho Duchesscf Orleans regent . ( Applause from all the benches of tho Centre , and with loud disapprobation on the Left , ) A Voice ( from one of the Tribunes ) : It Is too late ! An agitation , impossible to describe , here arose , A number of deputies collected round the Duohces of Or . leans , and the rest of the royal group . National Guards , without ceremony , came and minglod with the deputies who had dooe so .

    M . Mabie ascended the tribune , but wau obliged to remain there a length of time without being ahle to obtain a hearing . At length , silence being restored , said : Gentlemen , in the situation in which Paris now is , it is both necessary and urgent for us to adopt some measure which may have some authority with the popu lation ; Since this morning the evil has made an immense , progress . ( Hear , hear . ) What course will you take % Just now tbe Duohess of Orleans was announce ^ ai regent ; but a law exists which gives the regency to tho Dulse de Nemours , and you cannot , at the present momintj pass n ' t > w to rm-Jse it , ' What must be deae Ib to nominate a provisional government —( lond cries from tte left of hear , hear' )—not to give inBtltutlsns , bat to consult with ths two Chambers on the necessity ot Eatiefjlng the wishcB of tho country .

    JT . Cbemiecx : In the interest of the public safety a great measure 1 b necessary . It is important that every one should ba of tbe sume mind to proclaim a grant principle , aud to ensure to tbe victorious people serioui guarantees . Let us not do as in 1830 , since it has been found necessary to commerce again In 1848 what was then dofie . ( Applause . ) We cannot , at the present moment , do more than establish a provisional government , ( Cries of ' no , no . ') I have the greatest respect for tbe Duchess of Orleans —( cries ot' bravo , bravo . ') and I just now conducted the royal family to the carriage which bore them away . A Voice : Bon voyage ! ( Murmurs . )

    M . Crehuox ; The population of Pans hat Rhovjttthe most profound respect for tbe King's misiortune , but we who have eeen sent here to en < " : t the law ? cannot violate them . A law already voted disposes o < ~ the regency , and I cannot admit that it can be abrog t : & at this moment . Slnoo wo have come to 'tho poiut of undergoing a revelutfon l « tuaconfide " jreelveato 'fiecountry . I proposo a provisional gocerni : icnt of uVo members .

Barrot to the tribune . Lot 0 . Burrotsptak .

    The Abba Dz GKNOtDE : I nave only a word to cay . ( M . 0 . Barrot , who had ascended tho tribune , signified his acquiescence , anrt remained standing with bis back against tbe President ' s bureau . ) The Abba said : You cansot effect any good thing without the co-operation of the pnople . You tried it in 1830 , and you see what has come to pqbs . M . 0 . Basbot : Never had we need of mors coolness and patriotism . May we be a ! united Id one sentiment —that of saving our country from the most droadful of visitation ? , a civil war . ( Applause . ) Nations , I am aware , do net die , but they become weak from Intestine dissensions , and France never had more need thnn now of all ber foroc—of the aid of all her children . Our doty is clearly traced out—it calls on us to unite ourselves to what is most genereua in tbe heart of tbe nation I The crown of July rests on tbe head of a cbild and a woman . ( Laud marks of assent from the Chamber , great disapprobation on tho public tribune ; . ) It is a solemn appeal .

    The Duchess of Orleans here rose and pronouncsd Rome words , which wo could not catch . Tbe persons near her appeared to recommend ber to sit down . M . 0 . Bakeot : It is in the name of tho political liberty existing in our country , of the necessities of order which have occurred to every one's mind , of the union and accord which ought to reign amongst all good citizens , that I call on all my colleagues to support this double representation of the Revolution of July . ( Renewed assent and disapprobation , as before ) , I would give my life a thousand times to ensure the triumph of the cause of liberty in my country—The Marquiu Db Labochejaqoeiein ; You do EOt know what you are doing ! < ¦

    M . 0 . BiRar . T : Can it be that nny one can Imagine that what wan decided by the Revolution of July enn bo attain called in question ? ( Great agitation . ) Gentlemen , the work , 1 allow , is difficult ; but ttn-re ar « such elemeDts ofganerosity , greatness , and pood sense in this oauntry , that it suffices to appeal to them toindaco the whole population to rally round tho Btfindard I display . ( MurmurB in tho tribunes . ) Our duty is aimplo—it i 9 traced out by the laws and by honeur . If wo do not fulfil it with firmness , I cannot say what the consequences will he , hut he certain of this , that whoever should dare to Incur the responsibility of a civil wor , would be In the highest degree culpablo towards his country . ( Hear , bear . ) Fer my part , what I conceive to be most fitting fsr the situation is this—the regency of the Duchess of Orleans , a ministry chosen , from tbe most tried opinions , and an appeal to tho country , which will pronounce with full liberty , in an exteut sanctioned by law . Suoh is my opinion , and I cannot consent to assume the responsibility of any other situation . ( Agitation , )

    The Marquis De Labociiejao , cbi , eiw : Gentlemen , T feel the most profound reipect for what thrre ie pninful in the position of certain persons , I am , porhaps , more tban another , coiled on t © defend h ^ re the people and liberty . But I must reply to M . 0 . Barrot that I canaot have here the intention of upholding a particular opinion ; that honourable gentleman kas not cemprehended the sentiment which animates me . Gentlemen , here yon are nothing . ( Loud cries from all sides of ' order , order . ' ) . The PBE 8 IDENT ' .

    M . CuzvALLiEU : I shall speak with tbe greatest mo . doration —( ' You have no right to bo there !

On tbe door being opened a number of men ruBhed in , well provided with arms , and who ap » peared to have just come from a combat . Several of them forced their way to the front seats , and pointed their muskets at tho deputies below . Some of these we apons were also turned in the direction of tbe royal party . Immediately the persons near the DuchesB of Orle&nS seemed to address her energetically , and a moment after she rose , and , with ber sons and the two princes , quitted the Chamber by a door on the extreme left . M . SiuzET , ntthe same moment , withdrew from tha President ' s chair , and nearly all the deputies who had remained quitted their places .

M . Ledeu Rollim ( in the midst ofthe aolst ) : A provisional government cannot bo organised in a light or cureless mnnner .

    THE NEW GOVERNMENT AT THE HOTEL DE VILLK , No human expression can describe the feeling of the people at the Hotel de Vide . A single cry was in ever / month . ' Tbe Republic—we will have tho Republic V Suddenly the doors of the Salle du Consoil were violently shaken , and the people demanded aloud to have the first act of thr . provisional government comraunio . ited to it , M . Louis Blano , in til © midst of an enormous crowd , announced from the steps of the Hotel de Villa that the provisional government desired a Republic . At these words there was immense applause from every part . In tho great hall of tbe Hotel de Ville , M . de Lamartine had created a powerful emotion . The agitation continuing , M . Lcdru-Rollin pronounced some powerful words , which were received with enthusiasm . By degrees the multitude dispersed , and the provisional government could with more calm discuss the measuresto be adopted . Ministers were appointed , and public sa / ety assured by the nomination of a cemmander-in-chief of the National Guard , M . de Coiirtaia , and a chef d'etat major , M . Guinard . Generals Bedeau and Lamorioifire placed themselves at ths disposal of tho provisional government . The first is appointed Commander-in-chief of the military division , and he was offered the ministry of war . The second offered to march to the frontier . The provisional Government made it one of itg first duties to provide for tho subsistence ofthe people .

    ANOTHER ACCOUNT . — -THE PEOPLE INSIST UPON A DEMOCRATIC REPUBHC . The provisional government adjourned to the Hotel de Ville on Thursday evening after the close af the sitting in the Chambers . There a terrible scene was exhibited . The members ofthe provisional government sat to decide upon the course to be adopted in the actual situation of the capital . Individnally the majority of them were opposed to the establishment of an unmitigated democracy . The people , however , filled the hall , and completely overpowered them by demonstration of their inflexible purpose of seeing a Republic in its most democratic form resolved on . In vain it eras attempted to

    adjourn the question till minds should become calm . Every proposition of like nature was met by menacing shouts directed even against the most Popular members of tho government . M . Dupont ( de l'Eure , ) who made many attempts to defend tho proposition of a Republic in its lees democratic shape , was compelled to silence by the most deafeninp shout * of ' Dupont & la fenetre , ' and was so exhausted by fatigue and excitement that ho twice fainted . M » Marie met with no better snccesB . The anxieties he underwent had suoh an effect on his countenance , that oq leaving the meeting his own son could not reoognise him .

    The following , from the pen of Robert Owen , ¦ which deserves tLe attention of every working man ia England , will at once convince the working classes of the wisdom and justice of their principles , as the following proclamation is a virtual admission of all the principles contained in the Pesple ' s Charter , which , as we have invariably stated , was destined to absorb all minor considerations . A PROCLAMATION BY ROBERT OWEN . Ii is evident that the government of this country is reposing on a barrel <¦ ¦{ gunpowder-The Irish pea ? astry are starving . The British operatives cannot find employment , and are jh raiserr . ' The meang exist in enormous superfluity to place tte populaticn of both islands in a state of permanent progressive prosperity , even to prevent the possibility of one individual being brought up to be ieaorant , " ill-conditioned , in poverty , or the fear of it . Knowing this from facts which cannot deceive , and knowing that the members of the government , from their education and prejudices of position , are ye ; nninfermed upon these vital questions of national policy , aud being aware of their danger , unless they immediately bestir themselves , and adopt deci " sive practical measnEes to give Bread . Knowledge , and Good Habit 3 to the people . I have had one petition presented by Mr Cobden to the House of Commons a second by the Marquis of Lansdowne to the Hou = e of Lords , asdathird , by the Secretary el State for the Home Department to ' her Majesty , and a fourth ( in the form sf a memorial ) to the Lords of her Majesty's Treasury , praying that & Committee or Commission ehonld be appointed fully and fairly to now investigate these all-imptrtant subjects : —but these parties , Eofc su 3 peeting : the insnj&-diate urgency for the adoption of measures to give the relief required , have not yet deemed it necessary to grant the prayer of those petitions . To prevent a revolution of violence , and disaster to the government . Each as lately occurred to the French eorernmrut , and thus throw this extended empire into incalculable eonfasion and misrry , it is recommend ; d that pnblie meetings be held in the metropolis , and over Great Britain and Ireland , to make these errors and unnecessary evils known to alL and to petition for the adoption of immediate measures to give employment , and just remuneration for i < , to all who require it ; and lo insure a sound practical and efficient character for their Children , that poverty and crime may be prevented , and punishments thus rendered unnecessary . Those who desire to prevent the Irish peasant , and British operatives from starving , or the go vernment being stultified or a revolution commenced , tbat would atouseall the angry passions , and throw sosiety back half a century or more , should immediately bestir themselves , and organise the meetings recommended without delay . I am willing to assiEt , and to take ay full responsibility in these measures ; but with my knowledge ot tertain permanent remedies of prevention , I cannot remain silent and see millions in uneeees-Eiry poverty , stimulated to crime , and then most CEJnsfly punished . USIVERSAL CHARIir , PEACE , AND GOOD-WILL . ROBERT OWEN . London , March 1 , 1818 .
