    allow the vast number of coach and cab men to resume their occupation . The law courts have resumed their sittings—the post-office is at work—the shops are opened—every thing is doing to calm apprehension . The workmen are assured that a great p lan is about being adopted tor their benefit , according to which every man shall have emplayment and fair recompense . Ih 8 best spirits are beinu draughted into the movable National Guard , with the magic word ' Frontiers' in their ears , and thiity sons a day in their pockets . Every good citispn , whether in ooatume or not , is told that he ia a National Guard . Tiifs measure , a { alJ erents , supplies a good police , or there is an honourable esprit du corps animating this body . A man found stealing &

    silver Bpoon was placed on his knees and shot on the spot . 1 am so exposed to interruptions while I write , thRt I can hardly give you as connected , details as I should desire . To resume : —The grand object is to restore confidence . Commissioners are at the railways attending to the traasport of provisions . The Havre Railway has been placed by tho directors at their disposal for that purpose . The Northern Railway has been mnobiujared , but may bi restored , I understand , with Borne ordiaary efforts . The fear had seized the people that this railway might be used for the conveyance of troops against Paris . ' But news has been circulated that Belgium has beeome a republic and Leopold fled . IfchaB also been announced that all tbe principal towns are

    tranquil and accept the Republic . The eastern Frontier is held to be covered by Switzerland , nor are the Pyrenees laoked to with alarm . With regard to foreign affair ? , it is generally be . Jieved that England will recognise the Republic . It ? b against AuBtria , not England , that the popular feeling runs . As for invasion of England , it is not thought of now ; and , indeed , I believe there is real respect for tho * land of liberty . ' Should an invasion bs ever attempted , I will say this , as an eyewitness , that if tha English people were animated wjth such a spirit m the French , when in one night they made their capital , in presence of 100 , 000 men , impassable for troops , no army of invaders would succeed against them . ' - What they Beem to fear ia a sadden determination

    of the Northern Powers to take advantage of their unprepared state , and , by means of the railways with which Germany is intersected * throw an army into France . Ob tha other hand , great hopes are entertained of Italy causing a diversion . The Coit-8 TCTOTioNNBii points evidently to war , saying , that if other countries demand their assistance , they shall have it ; and that this is tbe feeling of the provisional geverament I doubt not . They kave , with much tact , given the foreign affairs to Do Lamartine , who is a lover of peace , and whose eminently respectable name ia calculated to look well in the eyes of foreign Powers . You have already observed that Larasriciere at oecq joined the revolatien , choosinR the frontier as his poet , and the frontier is the Rhine , fle haa , perhaps , been pushed

    1 by his brother-in-law , Thiere , who so far must bo a disappointed man ; and Thiers' ambition would be to act Talleyrand to the rising Napoleon . The people icount with * sort of certainty upon the Northern Powers being embarrassed by their own subjects . The Poles'in Paris have already offered to form a Pelish legion . It is to Admiral Baudin that the command of the Toulon fleet if given ; he is one of the old admirals of thefeinpire , and his name is popular . It is General Subef vie who ia Provisional Minister at Wat , and' riftt Bedeau , who takes the command of the first military division , in jvhich Paris is inolnded / Abd-el-Kader ia to be . watchod more closely than ever , for evidpat reasone , for Algiers ia embarrA 8 sitt £ . Commissioners have been senfe to the five greit naval posts , Brest , Cherbourg , L'OrientRochefort , and Toulon .

    . The ex-Miniaters ard not spoken of . They were a&embled , itisaaid , at tha hotel of the , Minister of the Iatericr wlien the news of the King's ' abdication wag brought in . They then all fled by back doors , There was an attempt on the part of criminals confined in the different gaola to escape , but they are well watched over , and tho public tranquillised on that score . Debtors and political prisoners , as well as women , have been released . The- churches have been respected , but it ia certain that attempts had been made to burn tho Tuileries and the Lonvre , which were found to be on fire in three places the night before last . Food is being distributed'at all the hospitals , and notices are issued fur relations and frieHds to oorae aad claim the victims , whose bodies ara otherwise to be interred in the oid cemetery of St Catherine .

    It is announced thia morning that the King s beloved retirement at Neuilly has been burnt , The-bridge at Aanieres , over which pass the Versailles , St Germain , and Rouen trains , has , I am assured , been cut . Tho fortress of Monk Valerian , that great stronghold , which stood at an equal dis tance between St Cloud and Neuilly , and commanded the Boirde Boulogne , surrendered after a resistance of five hours . All the / om detaches and fortresses round Paris are in the hands of the Republic . And where was Bdgeaud—the merciless oven-heater ot the Dahre— -the man whoBe name alone was to have made the hearts of the people quake . ? Itifl ' a-enrioaa fact that the last Rsyal ordinance in the Momtewr was tu&t which named him Govern nor of Paris ; and the next day the ordinance ran in' the name of the French people . '

    To-day the National Guards are all passing in review in ''different quarters . The weather ia tremendous , blowing a hurricane with heavy showers . Four o'Cloclv . — -I have just heard a report from the- Hotel da Villa that the provisional government are enchanted at the success of their measures for restoring confidence and order . They say . one more such day , and tbe Republic is confirmed . There is perfect usanimity amongst them . A great many that I meet wear tricoloured ribands on their button ' s , to mark their adoption of these soloura instead of tho red , to which , however , some yet adhere .. I met a procession just now , which , I understand , is that of some schools , preceded by banners , some fcricoloured and some red . There are copious placards all over the city , all addressing the beat feetinga of the people in favour of freedom , equality , fraternisation , < fco . ¦ : ¦ ¦ . ( From another Correspondent . ) ¦'¦

    Saturday eveniag . —The streets have been crowded with all ranks . A grand review of the National Guard was to hare taken place , but it is postponed . The expectation of the review haa added greatly te the crowds in the street , who are never * theleas very peaceable . f A friend of mine , who has just eomo from the Hotel de Ville , where the previsions ! government ib sitting , says that all parties there are perfectly satisfied with the march of events . There was great apprehension for this day ; but hitherto all the accounts received from all the districts of Paris , and from the provinces , describe the feeling to ba fa . vourable to the ne ; v order of . things . Adhesions hiiva come in from a large number of towns to day , where the Republic has been proclaimed .

    The provisional government is said to be unanimous in its decisions , and to have every expectation that if the accounts continue as favourable as they are to-day , * that order will be restored throughout the country . The fort of Mount Valerian , the last of tho fortifications which held out against the provisional government , has surrendered after a considerable degree of resistance . There are thousands of caricatures against Louis Philippe in all the print shops of Paris . They have appeared as if by magic . THE TUILEniBS .

    The palace of the Tuileries ba 3 been formed into a hosp ital for workmen , under the name of ' Hotel des Invalides Civiles . ' Great numbers of the shops of Paris are open today . The barricades have been partially removed in the principal thoroughfares , and a few carriages and carts are to be seen . thb rival cotouna . The moat thriving trade in Paris to . day , ( writes a correspondent ) , is decjdedly the : sale of triooloured ^ oclta ' cles ,- In fact , all this raorning , along the boulevards , ambulating marchands plied a brisk trade for a couple of hours , offering their merchandise to all eomers without fee or retribution , leaving the reward to the generosity of the citizen who is so

    supplied . I need scarcely say that such a mode of carrying on the trade was not a losing one , as it might not have been a safe thing to offer for the distinctive mark of the Republic anything less than at least a piece of silver coin . The ultra-Republican party were raost anxious for the red colour alone , and that distinctive mark was on Friday to be seen in almost every man ' s breaat , either in the shape of a 9 hred ol ribbon , two pieces erossed , or a cockade . The women , too , wore nothing but red ribbons in their caps aDd bonnets ; and if the humour had continued , there ia no doubt that red in all its shades would have been the fashionable colour of the coming season .

M . de Lamartine yesterday declared strongly in favour of the tricolour , under wbioB , he said , the French arms had been bo often led toviotory ; snd , in consequence of his declaration te that effiat , the tide turned this morning , to the great delight of persons who had been selling the red ribbons , and who now commenced a new and very active trade . in tha three colours . At the Passage de V Opera , a complete row took place between the fa ^ vonrers of the red colour alone and those who saw no reason for giving up the triple sign .

( From the correspondent of tho Telegraph . ) I am most happy to bo able to couvey to you the gratifying intelligence that the people , though now in all the flush and intoxication of a glorious victory nreactin" in a most admirable manner , and displaying a most admirable spirit . Nothing , I assure you , cati surpass the moderation anil propriety of their behaviour . Though the streets are filled with an immense multitude , two-thirds ac least of whom are armed with musketsswords , daggers , hatchets , ae a o nru ,, n / i / vnf tha nlrl tuna nf fhp firah rntrnlii .

    , weapons of eorae kind , there is no fighting , no disturbance . Though the cellars of the Palace were broken into , and wine and liquors poured forth like water , I do not think I have seen twenty dru » ken men , nnd yet I have been everywhere—in all parts of the city ; The civility of the people is extraordi . navily groat ; and th " e men who are appointed to protect the barricades are politeness itself . Last nieht , for instance , in going over the quarters of the Rdedu Temple and tbe Rue St Martin , 1 had to scale at least fifty or sixty barricades . At every one of them I met with aa much politeness and attention as in a drawing-roora . Aa raany of the sentinels —for tbe mest part working men in blue smock frocks—helped me over ; and at others , when two persons happened to arrive together at the only practicable spot for passing , one invariably made way for the other to go first .,

    FRATERNITY TTIIH ALI , HATIOKS . As to the spirit of the people , I repeat that it is everything that could be desired . Last night I mixed with what' aristocrats' call' the mob , ' which was assembled on the Place de 1 'Hotel da Ville . Though it was only a few hours before that the people had driven away their king , whom they considered & tyrant , overthrown his government , and swarmed through his palace ; and though they were tlien agitated by the report ( happily unfounded ) that the artillery was coming from Vincefines to attack them ; I found about a dozen working men , with whom I entered into conversation one after another , air animated by what they call the' spirit of justice and fraternity . ' 'We demand , ' said they , ' nothing

    that is unreasonable ; we demand work , nnd' tve demand to be fairly paid for it ; wo demand to enjoy reasonable liberty , and to be relieved from the burden of supporting a multitudeof useless placeholders ; we demand to be governed by honest mea , not by thieves { voleurs , by the way , has for some time past been the epithet applied by the populace to the members of tbe government and publio placeholders , on account of the numerous cases of corruption recently brought to light ;) finally , we demand to live as brethren , for brethren we are , and wo demand to ba at peace and in fraternity with all nation ) . " Tnea , ' said I to one of the men—a very intelligent fellow ,

    ' you think the people are not disposed to gn to war V 1 , ' aaid he , * God forbid !— ? la fraternitc , la fraternile , is oar motto . ' Another little example . Having , last night , made some observation to a sentinel , who helped me to get over one of the barricades ; he said , Oh , sir , you are a foreigner—an Englighmaa ? ' 'I am , ' said I . ' Gira me your hand / he ejaculated , ' let the English and French be friends . ' Again on the evening befare , some men who were building a barricade , and with whom I got into conversation , remarked that I was an Englishman , and on my answering in the offirmatire , cried , 'Viventle 3 Anglais . Nohs aimons les Anglais . '

    BIOIS AT ROUBN . Rohkn , Friday 10 p . m . —The three o'clock train from Paris arrived at ten o ' clock this night .. The populace attacked the terminus on the left bank-Faubourg St Sever , and had broken all tha windows . One of the arches of the Eauplet bridge , whioh . traverses the line close to Rouen , had bean set oa fire , and was beginning to burn . The train , therefore , passed though the tunnel St Catherine , for tbe terminus of the right bank , in the Rue Verfci . Just as It arrive ;! , the mob bors down upon this terminus ,

    too , and set to work breaking down tho walls , fragments Of which were falling apon the rails , At this the train ( a very long one , and filled principally with English families flying from Paris , ) backed towards the burning bridge just alluded to , and oassed over the aroh , which was npw all in flames . Never was more imminont danger impending , and as providentially escaped . All the passengers then got out of the train at the St Sever station . All night the fire burnt fiercely , fanned by the high wind that was blowing ; but one aroh , however , and all the parapet , was destroyed .

    DKTURB \ NCBB AT AMIENS . On Saturday 140 troops of the line arrived at Amiens en route f p r Paris . The populace were in a state of fury at this news , and declared that these troops should not' proceed to the capital and swell the tide ef blood there . The mayor of ihe town , declared that it would be against all law to detain them , and , therefore , ordered the railway officials to convey them to their destination . When this order became known the people were furious—tore up the rails , overturned / the carriages , land put the engine fire out , so that at present communication with Paris , peMailtoadi'iastoFped ..- ''"¦ ¦ - _ ¦ ' ' ] ' .

    Brussels , Saturday , February 20 th . —It would be almost impossible to describo the exeitement preduoed in this capital by the intelligence that the Government of July was at an end , that Louis Phitope had abdicated , aad that a republic had been proclaimed . ' This exoitement was the greater on account of BrusselB having been-strange 'to sayiduring forty-eight hours without news from Pans ; The offices of the leading journals ( particularly of the Emancipator ) were crowded night and day . All dfiv veaterday a great erowd assembled sear

    the ' two rail way stations and the post-office m Order to eain information respecting the all-exeiting topic of the day . At last , about 10 p . m ., an engine with one carriage arrived at the station Du Midi . It ms then announced that ft republic had been proclaimed . This announcement was received with loud cheers by a number of persons belonging to the working classes , who immediately proceeded down several streets cfying' Vive la Republiquo , ' and singing the ' Marseillaise . It is positively asserted that delegatre from the provisional government have arrived in Brussels .

    About thvee o ' clock this morning , n gentleman residing in the Montagnede la Cour , entered the Cafe del Univers , at which a number of the leading democrats were assembled ( and where they had been openly diaeusaing politics all night , ) and handed to one of tho company a copy of a journal in which ample accounts of the events , or reported events , of Pa > is were given , and in whioh it was asserted in the most positive manner that Louis Philippe and im ex-Queen had arrived at Laeken . This report was so current all day that all the papers repeated it . There is reason , however , to believe that the report is unfounded . At all events , the fugitives are not in Laeken . ' , . The Belgian cabinet have taken . military precautions on a large scale , not only for the preservation of order , but also for tho preservation of the Belgian territory .

Etn . bnssy , in Manchester-square , fti ' Sunday eVehiiigyat twentyH&Ve minutes to eight o ' clock , from the terroinuB of the South-Eastern Railway , at London bridge , accompanied by Count deJarnao ( the French minister . ) The duke was accompanied from Paris by one of his children , the Duke August © ofSaxe Ooburgandhis Dachess (««'« Princess Clementine ) with their three children , and a physician . The duke , en hia arrival at Hertford Hous e , seemed greatly dejected , as he was suffering from excessive fatigue ; and from their esoape from the French capital having been the act of a moment , no luggage was brought , co that , in fact , none of them possess a change of garments .

    The Countess de Jarnac , the Count Louis de Noailks , and M . de Rabaudy were assembled in the vestibule to receive the Duke do Nemours and tho unfortunate individuals accompanying that prinee . The duke was waited on immediately after his arrival at the embassy by their Royal Highnesses the Duke and Duchess of Saxe-Goburg , and his Royal Highness Prince Albert , attended by Baron Fritsch and Lieutenant-Colonel Wilde . Their Royal Highnessea the Duke and Ducheas of Saxe-Cobourg and Prince Albert were instantly conducted to the saloon of the embassy . The meeting was deeply affecting , the Duchess of Saxa-Cobourg being painfully overcomobyher feelings . The Count and Countess deJarnao were alone present at the distressing interview , the royal equerries being in call in an ante-room .

    POLITICAL EXUKR—MA 1 UFBSIO . : Mondat—The greatest excitement prevails among tho French resident in London , At the various French hotels and coffee-houses in Leicester-square and the neighbeurhood , the all-absorbing topic of conversation has been the recent events ia Pnris . On Friday and Saturday especially , as the news arrived by piecemeal of the abdication of Louis Philippe , several reunions were held , and the most enthusiastic feelings displayed for the revolutionary cause . On Saturday many Frenchmen carried their enthusiasm so far , as to attach tricoloured ribbons to their buttop-holes , and were to ^ be seen in the streets wearing this favour . Several of the political exiles

    have already gone back to France , amongst the number I ) r Berrier Fontaine , who , for many yeara past , has been practising as a physician in Foley-piace , andM . Gntaard , now appointed Chef d'Etat Mfijeur of the National Guard . " Botk these gentlemen were , with Marrast , Cb . v&ign&c , anrf others , members of the committee of the Socie ^ de Droit do THornine , and , it will be remembered , were convicted and imprisoned in 1832 , for conspiring to dethrone Louis Philippe , and ' to restore the republican form of government . The extraordinary ea « ape of the thirty , three conspirators from tho prison of StPelagie , is well known . A manifesto , of which the following is a translation , was agreed to on Saturday , and nurseroualy signed . It now lies for signature at the Freneh Reading-room , No . 67 , Strand ;—

    Frenchmen , —At news of the immonsa events at Paris , jour brothers , residing ia London , have associated themselves tpontaneously with ths aooomplisheu revolution , Many phrases would be nectary to espresi all their sentiments , but they can only testify their admiration of the courageous conduct you have displayed at Paris , their regret at having been unable to participate in it in a manner worthy of tho canae . ( Here fallow the signatures . ) : ' TH 8 BX-ROTAI . FAMILY O ? FRAXCS . We take tha following from Tuesday ' s TiMsa : — < Another day haa passed without any authentic Intelligence having been received at the French Erabassy as to the retreat of Loaia Philippe , and the most intense anxiety naturally prevails as to the safety of the deposed king and the members ot his family .

    The acoounts which have reaohed London from Paris do not give with any- degree of accuracy the movements of the . Royal family after the final outbreak on Thursday , whioh destroyed the existing governraent . The following detail , commencing with tho early pavt of that daj , has beee derived from an eye-witness'of and participator in the extraordinary events it attempts to describe ; and while the utmost reliance may be placed on the authenticity oi the various faota related , the detail itself will be found to explain in a great measure the circumstance of the separation of the various members of the Royal family . On Thursday the king , and queen , with the Duke and Duchess de Nemours , the Itake and Duchess de Meatpenaier , and the Duke and Duchess of Augusta of Saxe-Coburg , remained io tho palace of Tuileries .

    The king wassurrounded by a large number of his personal friends , among whom were the Duke de Broglieand several other ttemberg of the Chamber of Peers . M . Thiers and mauy other leading deputies were also present , ail ansdoua in advise with the king as to the best oourae of proceeding under existing circumstances . The Duke de Isemoura at thia time had the oomaand of the troops in the courtyard of the palace .: The insurgents were fast gathering and advancing in large bodies in the direction of the Tuileries . The National Guard gave way before them , and , on nearing the palace , entreated that

    tho artillery might net bo used on the people . The Duke de Nemoura yielded to their solicitation , and not a shot was fired . As the mob rapidly inereised , however , the king was advised to leave tho palace , s , step which his Majesty at length reluctantly consented to adopt . With the king departed her Majesty the Queen , the Ducheas de Ncmoura , and three of her children ; the Duke and Duchess Auguafe of Saxe-Coburg , with their youthful family , and the Duchess de Montpensier . Toe Duke de Montpensier left at tbe a ? me time in command of a email escort , whioh accompanied the Royal fugitives on their road toDreuz .

    After the departure of the Royal family , the mob pressed onwards in the direction sf the Tuileries a ' nd a aharp'fi ' ring' commenced . On arriving opposite the palace , they commenced breaking the windows , and in a rery short period , every pane of glass in the principal front waademoliBued , The National Guard iad now entirely given way , and tho mob having increased tenfold , the Duke de Nemours , finding resistance hopsless , retired through the gardens of the palace with a small band ' of soldiers , who still reraained faithful to him . The duke then , learning that the Dachess d'Orleans , with her two infant cb . ildren , had gone to the Chamber of Deputies , followed her thither , and on arriving there , left his little troop of soldiers on guard at the entrance while he himself

    proceeded into the Chamber , where the disouBsion on the question of accepting the Count de Paris as King was at that time proceeding in a very satisfactory manner . During . taediscassinntha insurgents arrired and haying easily overpowered the irbopi on guard , they occupied all the outlets and entered the Chamber itself in great numbers , bearing arms , flags , arid banners , and uttering the mast discordant and frightful imprecations . Tho Duke de Neraoara bad at this moment hold of the Count de Paris ' s hand , the Duohess d'Orleans leading her second eon , the Duko de Ckartres . So frightful was the rush of tho mob

    that both the young princes were ( separated from their protector ? , and it was with extreme difficulty that the Duko de ChartreB was reoovered , he having been lost in the mdee for some time . There now appeared no alternative for tha Duchess d'Orleans and her . brether-in-law but to _ proceed to the Invalides , which they accordingly did , attended by a small band of soldier ? , who behaved with the greatest devotedness to the last . To the Invalides the Royal fugitives were pursued by the infuriated aob , and a violent attack being made upon the Hotel , it was deemed prudent for the duke and the duchess to separate and take the best means at hand for their respective ( safety .

    The Duko de Nenioura left Paris direotly , and on the road'to Boulognofell in with his Royal relatives , the Duke and Duchess Augustus of Saxe Coburg , with whom hia Royal Highness crossed the Channel on Sunday . With regard to the progress of the other members ef the Royal family the following is all tbat is known : —It appears after leaving Pari 3 it was found the revolutionary feeling prevailing in all the principal towns was sueh as to render it exceedingly impolitio for the Royal family to travel together , and it was accordingly arranged that they should separate at ouch intervals as might insure the probability of a safe transit to England , which appeared to be the only safe refuge for the Royal exileB . ;

    The Duke and Duohess Augustus of Saxe Coburg were the first to ' separate from the famil y ; the Duchess de Montpenoier the next . The arrival of the former we have already announced ; the latter resobed the French Embassy yesterday afternoon . The last account of the King and Queen , with the other members of the Royal family , are from Dreus , on tho road to Havre , at which place there seems to ba fevevy probability the family ' separale'd in order ' to avoid recognition . Having stated all that is known of the absent members of the Royal Family , we > return to the Frenoh Embassy in London , where on Sunday erening the Duke de Nemours and his Royal sister and brother-in-law , the Duke and Duohess Augustus of Saxe Coburgy were stated to be safely arrived in our yesterday ' s impression .

    At half-past tea ' oclook yesterday irorningher Royal Highness the DuoheBs of Kent arrived at the Embassy , and had : a long interview with the Duke de Nemours end his ; Royal relatives . ' " Whilst the Ddohess was at the Embassy the reigning Duchess of Saxe Ooburg arrived from Bucking , ham Palace to pay a visit to their Royal

    HighneaHea . It is understood that the object of the visit both of the Duohess of Kent and the Duchess of Saxe Cobure ; was to express her Majesty the Queen ' s desire that thtir Royd HigMeMes the Duke and Duchm Augustus , of Saxe Coburg should make Buckingham Palate their home fairing their stay in this country .
