    The National states that the measures taken to prsrent commnnication with the insurgent * " hare Jed to curious discoveries . Iu the Rne duKelder at . d in the quarter Notre Dame de Lorette , " several women were arrested , carrying baskets of bread , whieh contained cartridges . On a mattress on which lay a person affecting te be wounded was found ammunition . Several coffins contained ammunitioa . A milkwoman was seized with her cans lull ol powder . Amoag s number of prisoners from the 10 th arrondistemerit was a young sad a very pretty girl , of from eighteen to twenty , dressed as a workman , and an ex-garde republicaine in costume . One very respectably dressed woman had cartridges secreUd in her hair . Tfce Garde Mobile , it i « asserted , shot two of their body en the Q < iai aux Fleura for distributing ball cartridges to the rioters .

    The commandant of the 10 th battalion ef the Garde Mobile , and his adjutant major , were killed in carrying the barricades on ths Piaee du Pantheon . " A battalion of the Gsrde Mobile Suffered greatly in the Rue ilouffeterd , especially in its officers . The Natiox . l announces tho death of GeufTal Negrier . General C-arbonnel ' a wound , although severe , is not dssgtttus-General Renault has been severely wounded . G-neialDeartis among the hilled .

    ( From the Times . ) Ths insunecSon is at an end . Some thousands of those who figured in it as insurgents ate £ ea . d , writhing seder wounds , or in the prisons of the State . All its leaders ere known . Some of the _ perished in the barricade ! . Mere are ia prison . The rest arc hidden , or t & ve taken flight . On the side of or 3 er mora man have fallen then on that of ths revolt . There h ; ve been killed or wounded ten general officers , distmguUbid for their set-rices and their courage . The Archbishop of Paris has been wsunded—I fesr mortally . Several representatives of the peopU h * ve fallen . Hundreds of rfacers of all rsnks of the army and of the National Guard havo heen kiilefl erwoended . Thousands of XTattoaaJ Guards and soldiers—10 , 039 , I am infermed—have lest their lives , or fcaxe beeu wounded ia this frightful struggle .

    Erert account I receive confirms the statement I con » Tcjefi to joa yesterday , that the loss of the insurgents b « P , in no respect , equalled that cf the troops , the National Gaards , and the Sarde Hohile . ( Prom the Dally Keics . ) The dead , and the cyinj , and the wounded continue to pass in vacs an . on litters . Last night tbe inhabitants were ordered to keep their windows illuminated daring the night . ( From the Morning Adteriiser . ) Feur or five of ths members of the Asstmbly are KS 2 org the Mlled , & nd _ bo _ c as many among the wounded . Fonrteen general officer- have been put hors de combat , several being killed . Ths loss la raperior officers >« s been greater than in the most briili & nt engagements during the wars of Sapoleon .

    I hear that the havoc has been beyond belief . A person who has peculiarly good means of information , essnrsd ma last evening that the losses of the troops and National Guards amounted" to fifteen thousand . Tho bloodshed ha * been far greater than at Wirssw ialSSO , shea 20 , 000 fell In the trenches . The killed end wounded ou both sides are estimated at a quarter more than that . Although the insurrection may be considered as ^ celled , it is not expected that tbe capital will ba altogether free from partial disturbance for many days to come . ( Frozt the DaWy Keict )

    It is impossible to conceive the state of the Quartier St Antoine . Ia the streets , mire than fifty houses are almost entirely destroyed by tbe artillery , end a much larger number have suffered considerably . At every hundred yacesformidable barr ^ cuJes w ? re conetrucifd , here with carriages , filled with stones , there with pavin ? stones , farther with trunks ef tress , and in same cases with large flsg stone ? . On the Piaco dels Bastille the disasters are " not less . The column of July bas been irjurcd . The warehouse known as ' La Belle Fermiere' is completely destroyed ; two _ cu es , which formed the angle of the Place de la Bastille end the Ras de la Boqaette , are a heap of rubbish . At two o ' clock the pompiers were employed to put oat th ? fire which had commenced in tbe rains .

    Tbe Faubourg St Antoiae presents a still more sinister asp'Ct . There is not a home which has eo : eoii = red more or less by tbe cannonade . The insurgents , driven from barricade to barricade , and from house to hsuie , opposed foot by foot a resistance which compelled every instant s new combat . A temporary hospital has been established la the salles ot the Lonvr ? . In a few hours the inhabitants of the quarter hsd furnished 200 beds , and all the linen necessary for the wounded . Two carts with 203 coffins pssEed the Rue St Honcre to ts' -e np some of the dead who had aot been owned by their fsiEiHeg . D' flotte , the rx-efacer of Hsrlne , who was eo _ prosriied in the afiiir of the 15 th May , and was one of the chisrf' cf the insurrection , bas been captured .

    FIK-- SISFE-SIOS 1 SD SL . CGHTE- OF TBI IF 6 C-GESTS , " ( From the Daily Ken-:. ) Tce « d _ t , Six p . h—The few insurgents that have cot thrown dows their arms have been HtsraUy hnn ted like wild beasts from their lairs . Tfeelssi band took refuge in the cemetery of Pcre la Chaise , im _ gmi _ g , probably , that that receptacle for the dead would be considered a sanctuary . They were soon , however , Unght their mistake , and hunted from that refuge by the cuirassiers and the Garde Hohile .

    ( FrOHj the Homing Chronielt . ) WEDsr . sBi . 1 Moskiko . —Vie have pasted anelher quiet n ght , and any Apprehensions of a fresh outbreak « r < - , fortunately , entirely at an end . The insurgents bar . ; bten completely dispersed , and of those who took refuse in the country ronna Paris , few have escaped the pursuit of the dregoons and infantry sent tfter them . Yesterday , at twoo ' elock , a party of about 400 of the furftives , who had teken up a position in the Cemetery of Pere Ia Chaise , were surrounded by some regiments of infantry , and summoned to lay down their arms . They refused , esceptinr on condition that they should

    —TEZ PilSOREBS . — THE WOSKDED . —THE FDSKE 1 LS . ( Prom tbe ITort . ing Herald . ) The fres circulat ' gn through the streets of tha capital was rescmed on Tuesday , auS we were enabled to visit the ec : ne of the lata awlttl events . ¦ The Q lartier Latin , from the Itns ds la Harpe to the Place Miubert , from tho Hottl Dieu to the extremity of the Faubourg Saint Marceau , is the part which has most eeffered . It t * 28 there that the c * mbat was raest sanguinary , and ihe traces of she emehle ere horribly visible . The co ! onnades of the Pjntfceon are very much battered ; the sta' . utB in the front ere many of them deatroyea , and others much ajnrilited . It wsb in front of this part that tte formidable barricade which defended the approaches to tbe church of St Eiienne du Mont was built , and which wsa only demoUshed after a vety severe can aonading :

    In the interior of the building- the tails have destroyed two colossal statues , oee representing the ' Rspablir , ' en 3 the other the genius of ' Immortality . ' One of rte copies of a picture by Raphael has been also destroyed . Tbe Church of St Edenae also bears marks of balls . The hand of the clock has been carried away . The Rue St Jacques near the Rue des MathuriES , and the Bridge of the Hottl Dieu present the most desolating aspect . The frant of e > ery house is riddled with bills , but those at the cad of the street are ths mest injured . In the Fanhourg da Temp'e the fronts of many of the houses are entirely hsaten dawn ; the walls lean , ready to fill doKB upon the foundations ef those houses where the rains was sprung . AH alscg the Boulevard from the Sac da Temple to the Bastille , tae houses , now hdng ccsscrucUd on the Boulevard are much damaged .

    Atthe points where tSeprincipiI figatiag took place , tbe windows of the houses are battered to pUces ; one can see also the large mirrors in the front rooms and the chindeiiers smashed . The marks of balls are visible on the walls . Snob , is the tcene I witnessed as fir as the Butille ; thtn my { Togreis was stopped ty a company of the Girds Mobile , by the officer of which I was informed that admission to tbe Faubourg St Antoine was forbidden . He told me that many of the houses were almost filled with dead , and others with woundd ; a large number fea « heen almost rised to the ground .

    Sreat alana still existed , and fears were entertained of fresh coiipimles . The houiciin Paris were again tilaminated on Tuesday eight for da greater security of patrols , and the streets were \ teil guarded ; but netwithstanding tfcese precautions , scae sentinels had heia fired at .

    I > -rk Si ^ pUion . of a plot still nnsappre > S'd prevail . What is f .-t ; red now is tbe cutting cf the gas pines , ano atlempts to set fire to the rap :-al , or to uudermice por uons and blow them up . Several individuals were tnk . t yesterday having large quantities of gunpowder concailel about their persom . A female , respectably attired , was taktn in tha Ras S < Honore , and a gr . atqaaniiij ofgunpiw « erfoHudstuff = d inthotoiom and under tht wai ^ t of her dress . Ou taking oh * her bennet and loosening her hair packets of powder w ? re found rolled in il > braids . Xama .-ou ¦ Instances , more or less similar to tbis . have heen detected . r . .

    Y . stfrday , when the National Gmrds of Lille and Touts arrived on the Pisco de l'Asgemblee Nationale . a woman , yousg and vrry beantifully drecsed , drew near a captain of dragoons posted at the head of hi * , company , exactly opposite the palace , and fireil off :. pistol close upon him . The ballet merely grt «? l kit regimentals . The woman was immediately apprehended . Since tho above was writttn . I learn that the numbei of prisoners now amounts to C , 580 . They are represented in gen ; ral as being under an impression that they wit . all be shot . Their rallying sign was a small osier wand that eaet of them kept concealed in his sletve , those borne by the chiefs were forkpd at the end . Evidence has been obtained that besides their g ? Feral plan of operation , the insurgents had a revolutionary government readj organised .

    Tht 3 th and 12 ( h legions of Nations ! Guards had teen disarmad ( the 12 : h is Bsrbes ' lcgion . ) I learn that a number of insurgents have taken refuse in the vaults under the Pantheon Measures areadepted to wall up all the avenues leading from them . It is by no means improbable , hewevtr , tbat they will escape , fir the vaults of the Pentheon communicate with tho catacombs , from which there are numerous issarg . One of the insurgents wfco had been taktn to the Abbsye , boasts of having killed twenty-twopersocsinthe Faubourg St Jacques . He was accompanied by hia wife and child . One woman was shot on a barricada who had in her hand a sabre , on the point of which she had stuck the head of an officer . Another woman , who cutoff the head ofacagtain , was ccnvi'jedto the Abbsye .

    Amongst the prisoners are the tambonr-mrjor of tbe 12-h legion , called * Je Profefscur des Barricades , ' a lieutenant and a 'sons-offiti-r' of the same legion . H . Canaigne , one of tbe editors of the Cohmcne , and an associate of Sobrier , was arrested on Monday . JI . Emile deGirarsiu is confined at tbe Conciergerie . andplscd in s-: eret confinement . EvenMme . de Girardln could not obtain permission to visit him . An application for his being let oat on bail has been made and nfastd . It is said that numbers of bodies were , in the obscurity of the night , committed to th * Stinc . partly not to add to -xcittm-- nt by the exhibition of 80 much sleushter .

    1 he following is the number ef cases received in the virions hospitals : — Li Chauta ... ... 120 Valde Grace ... ... 190 Hotel Dsen ... ... 400 Hospital Daboil ... ... 30 Cliniqus ... ... 78 Sa : ut L zLre ... ... 63 Sain ? Louis ... ... 500 In this Knmbtr ere nut included a great Eiany cases which were brought in , bat where death ttok p ! aco immediately after .

    Funerals of National Guards and ssldiers are en foastfcred everywhere proceeding to the c = meter , preceded by the muffled drum . It is customary here , as a mark of respect for the dead , for the passer-by to stop and uncover . I observed this usage of course , but in one case tVe c ^ cer commanding tha escort desired me to cover , and show no mark of respect , On inquiring the cause of this , I found that the funeral was that of Larroque one of tbe principal leaders of the insurrection , the editor of th ? journal ealied Peke Dcchesse .

    LATEB P 1 E 1 ICDLAB 9 , ( From the Times of Thursday . ) I have juit returnel from a tour of the position of the insnrgents ^ -deemed on Sunday impregnable . 1 mean the line of fortified barricades cstsndicg from the Faubourg Poissoniere to La Chapella ( the Barrkre St Denis ) . Tbe position of the insurgents throughout the line I have mentioned , was immensely strong . Tbe barricades in advance of the barritrs w ; re as formidable as regular

    engineers could hhve constructed . The houses covering them were occupied . Tbe means of passing frcm one to ano' . her were assured . The toll-houses at the barncrs were occupied by them and the windows removed . The houses in tbe opposite side of the Boulevard were , moreover , ia the possession of the rebtls , end manned with marksmen . What formed , however , the strength of their position wrb the perforation of the wall of the city , wfeich is twelve or fourteen feet high , at intervals of tight or ten yards an 3 tbe cnation by tbat means of stv . ral hundred mewrtrierss ( loopholes ) .

    When those who havo been st Waterloo learn that for mora thin a mile the wall of the city of Paris w : is as prtfusely famished with lonpholcs as was the garden w « JI of BbBineiDont , they will easily Imagine how formidable was the obstacle it presented . When they shall btar in mind that tbe barricades in advacce were cem posei cf paTicg elonea of & bunlif ed Weight each , 6 P of tbe cat stones for a hospital in process of erection , and that tbey were protected by brnseg adjoining to or commanding them , and tbat as occasion presented itself throujhout Saturday acd Sunday a constant , unerring , and deadly fire was kept up on the assailants by an almost invisible garrfcon . ( hey will not be surprised

    at the prolonged resistance , nor at the immense loss of life amoBg the troops and National Guards that unfortunately occurred . What wilt be tbe astonishment of all tbe world , and the feeling ot all military men in particular , when tbey are told that the whole of these works were defeaded by between 80 and ISO ruffians ! The largest number stated was 405 . How many of the Insurgents were killed on Sunday at the Barriere Rochecbouart , think yea , while tbe loss of the armed force was more than 1 , 000 ? Two—one of then shot throngh the brsia while firing through a loophole not six inches in diameter . Fire were wonneled .

    Tfefy ran ir > m loophole to loophole with the agiiity of monkies . Tbey only left the cover of tho high wail to s ^ ik ammunition , of which they had on'y a scanty aad precarious supply . I was shown the mark of the crccible usder the wall in which they melted lead for bullets during the fight . They even attempted to fabricate gun powder . Against these men were brought ss fine aa army aid si serviceable a park cf artillery as tbe world could produce , an £ nothing less woald have sufficed to dislodge them , nnUcs tbelr position had been tnrsed , and tbey were attacked in tbe rear . Let us ncolleet , however ,

    also that on the 800 otherpoints of Paris the tioops wer « ccenpied in contending with the rebels at the same mo . mest , sni how tbis musthave embarrassed the general , that tbe usual means of obtaining information were not available , nor when Information was obtained could it be relied oa . When these facts shall be taken into consideration , there will not be so much surprise at tho offensive efforts of the rebels , who , comparatively few in number , were intiBately acquainted with tha ground , strongly fortified , snd above ail , supported hy tbe sympathies and the positive co-cperatioa of the whole population of the continuous line ef town that borders the cuter Boulevard .

    This remark reminds me to explain that my information csinefrom inhabitants of the districts In which the engagements took place , end their estimate of the num . ber of the ' workmen * implied only those who were nonresident ? , but very many hundreds of their own neigh . br > ursassi « tfd the insurgents in the combat in every possible way—at La Chapelle in pwilcuhr— so that possibly as many men aa could have been brought into action , were positively engaged . It is a fact , indeed , that nlne . itntl S of the population between the Barrhre Po . ' isonnlsre and the Barriere St Denis were not merely frierdiy to these rebels , cr , aa th « y call them , tbe oucriers . eutfsaght in ihtir ranksthe inhabitants of Ls Caapelle above all ,

    Hl & EIBLE BCICBEBIES . Numbers efprisontri wfio have attempted to make thiir escape , have been cruelly put to death by the troops and the National Guard . Numbsrs o : insurgents were sholln the afUm 0 fi 9 Of Monday in tbe Fauboarg St Antoin ? . Those whose hands smelt of gunpowder were put to death . It was also said that General Fiat , their supposed commander , had been shot in the gaidtn ef the Luxembourg . General Cavaignao yssterdsy caused the 8 th , 9 th , end 12 th lfgions of the National Gusrd to be disarmed . He did mere ; he disarmed tke National Guards of Belleville and the Cowtille , ' tnd the disarmament of the population of La Chapelle . Ahtr tbe legions wire disarmed they were dissolved . Orders have hern given to disarm the inhabitants of Uontmartre , and to effect another search ia the quarries .

    NATIONAL ASSEMBLY . F « n > AT , JoreSS . —Nothing could exceed the demon , strstton of firca around tbe Chambor-- » drftgcoBs the line , Garde Mobile , were there in vast numbers , but what was still more striking , was the appearance of fifteen pieces of caanon round tho quays and iuthe adjotf .. ing s treets . The force was enormous . Great agitation prevailed in the Assembly . Citizen Ftoco * , Minister of Commerce , said that all the troubles and sgltstion which were occurring that d » y , no matter under what name they were encouraged , whether in the name of pretenders , or in the name of

    workmen led as tray by others , all came from one pointfrom gold scattered freely by the hand of foreigners ( Agitation , cries of 'yes , jes' ) . He addressed all true republicans , and asked did they suppose that the great example o « a throne being overturned , and of the nation governing itsilf could be seen without disturbance ? No ; tbat was Impossible . But what he warned to direct sttention to was , the fact that all thesa nttempti were intended to overturn the Republic , and were aided by foreign gold . Butsnch ifforti would be found useless , as the R public was sure to subsist , ( ' Tea , jes / ' Vive laUepubliqUJ ?

    exceed ng one . haif , should for tliree iu <> nths bo m . ido to he men « ho bad prop'riy conducted themteiy . s The MiNisTEi or Pdblic W 0 BK 8 said that ha had that morning received a deputation of the men employed in the national workshops , and had heard their complaints against tho measures intenced to be carried into tff ; ct relative te them . To their question as te whether the dissolution was to take place immediatel y , he had replied , ' No ! ' ( Cries of 'Yes , yes ! ' ) Ho now came forward , iu the hco of the report just prtstntefl , te toko * ft' fiom nimcelf the responsibility of that reply as much as he ccnld . The President then read some reports from the Prefect of Po ' ice , stating the progress of the conflict . The ad . journcd discussion on the Railway Bill then commenosd , bat presented nothing of interest .

    A tremendous fall cf rein took plaee at thU time , ana continued for aa heur ; it was then about four o ' clock . About a quarter past four a great movement wa » manifest » t the left entrance , and General Cavolgnac apptared , followed b y a numerous staff , all 01 parently wet through and through . General Cavsicjkac , Minister of War , ascended the tribune , and said that the insurrectioa had nenrly been pat down . Some resistance was made in the Fouhou' ? St Antoine , and the Rue St Jacques , but it would appa rently be soon put down . The Executive Committee here entered the hall , or . 4 Citizen Garnler Pages having first appeared , a cry for blm arose , and he proceeded to the tribune

    Citizen Gabhkb . Pages , who wna in a state o ' ih l greatest excitenent , said that the Executive Committee h « d not been present at the silttinjr ; for it was the moment for it to act , net to deliberate , ' iu th ? presence of an armed insurrection , which had kopt tbe cap ita ! in affright since the morning , in the presence of bands of insurgents paid to excite flgitati . usngainft tbe Rrpubl'c , the ExT-cntlve Committee had to take measures to restore order . Ic had done its dnty , had cHspisjed the utmosactivity , and wonld continue to do so until tranquillity was restored . ( Loud cheers . ) 'Butit ii not sufficient , said Cit- ' zen Garnier-Pages , ' to repress , we must punieb al * o . ' ( Loud cries of * Yes , yes . ') C . t ^ zenDE LisiAHTiNE also addressed the Assembly , declaring ihe intention of the Executive Committee to act with determination . He conld declare that itfi member * had done their duty —( cheers)—and th . it th' . y were fully prepared to Bssuma the revpnnsibility both of what hsd been done and should bo effected .

    Tho Assembly was then declared en permanence , but the sitting was suspended until eight o ' cloek . Evening Sitting of Fbiday . —At half past elpht the representa'ives sgain took ihfir places ; the public gal leries were crowded with spectators . Citizn CovsiDESANT : During the time that the sitting was suspended , I have tpo & en to a number of person * who conversed with gronps In various quarters where the fijhting was goisg on . These communication ! bnve proved to me that there is a misapprehension on the p ° r ' of 'he insurgent population —( violent murmurs)—tbat a number of tha men were misled , and tbat a proceedine on the part of the Assembly could restore peace in the capital . I have drawn up a proclamation , which I sub mlt to the Assembly . ( No , no . ) Tbe Pbesident could not receive the preposition of Citizen Constderant . No conditions could be ccme to with Insurgrnts . ( Hear , b < or . )

    Cit zen Cohsidibaht ascended tbe tribune , tut tht tumult which arose was so great that it was Impossible for him to procure a hearing . We at last understood hira to say that be demanded a secret committee to consider the terms of his proclamation . ( Loud cries of ' No , no . ' ) Citizen Baze : I demand tho previous question . ThU wii pronounced in the midst of excessive tumult , and tbe proposition was set aside . Citizen Caussidiebe : Twenty-five National Guards of tbe 10 th legion have fallen ! BJood still flows , shed by French hards ! Will you stop this dreadful state of tl ings ? It is not by vain prctemRtions , The repro . sentatlves ought all to go out and join the officer In command , and tbe Executive Committee , If you wish to stop the civil war , ge out without pomp and attendants amongst the people . [ The noise which arose drowned the voice of the speaker . ]

    After some further speech-maling In the midst of great agitation , the Assembly decided that the si'ting should be suspended for half an hour . It was then halfpast nine . At & iiuarter past ten o ' clock Citizen Sennrd , the President took the chair . General Cavaionac ascended the lribane : I regret to be able to give you but an incomplete account of what is passing . Tfcere baa bem on several points a very serious resistance , particularly in tbe Fauboarg du Temple , Generals Lamoriciere end Lafoctsiao have rendered themselves masters of all the pesitions . The space comprised between the boulevard and the barriers In the n . - . rth - quite disengaged . Thire still remain barricadei ' the Faubourg St Antoine , where General Bedcau como . ands . I am about to employ all the disposable troops to put down the insurrection .

    The Pbesident submitted tbe following decree : — ' The National Assembly decrees—« Art I . The National Assembly declares itself en permanence . ' Art . 2 . The National Assembly , resolved to fu'fil in their widest f stent the great duties Imposed on it by the confidence of tbe natitm , firmly relies for tbe ma ' atetance of the democratic laws and institutions cocquertd bj France , en the patriotism and assistance of all good ei ! iz ' « l . ' The whole Assembly rose up to cilca of Vivo la Re publlqiie !' The resolution was adopted by Reclamation . The sitting was again suspended amidst the utmost agtatlon . Darin ? 'bis suspension tbe affairs of tbe day were discussed . Cit- ' zin Bixio , one of tbe representatives , had , it was said , been mortally wounded by a ball in the breast .

    At eleven o ' clock tbe sitting was resumed . Clt ! z » n de Lamartine was in his place . Citizen Gabbieb-Psges ascended tho tribane , and related , ia the name of the Erecutlvo Commission , the state of Piiiis up to tbat hour . Citia ; n Arago , he said , had proceeded to tbe I 2 th srrondiseeinent , and himself , in union with tbe troops , mourning on tha barricades , had for a long time parleyed with the insurgents , and succeeded in gaining some of them ; but , being stopped by others , he had energetically summoned the Insurgents to surrender , This being without avail , ' continued the honourable represeo ' atWe , ' we wire obliged te fire the artillery on them . ' ( Sensation . ) At present , in the 11 th and 12 ch arroudlssements , only a fewp- ints remain occupied by the insurgents . General Latnefz had so surrounded them that be hoped at break of day to put the factious down . In the Faubourg du Temple Generals Cavaignao and Lamoriciere had carried all the barricades . A few still remained , but in the morning order would be restored .

    Citizen Degcdssee denounced an anarchlal Journal , l ' Organisation du Travail , which , with some others , bad cilumHiatdd the National Aisembly , and excittd the people against it . lie demanded to have it seized , for the National Guards had , in their indignation , wished to break the presses , tut he had engaged them to rely upon the laws . The sittin ? was terminated at i ? idnlght . Sitting or Satdbdat , June 24 . —A large bo < Jy of dragoons aud cuirassiers were oa the Piaee de la Con . cotde , with a regiment of tho line , and a considerable

    party of the garde mobile ; tbe horses and men of the cavalry regiments appeared fatigued , having part of them been on duty all ni ^ ht , whilst the cuirassiers had arrived that morning In Paris , Many of the men were lying about on the flags , trying to snatch half an houi ' s sleep . On the bridge a bedy of dragoons were also pisted , whilst in front of it were batteries of cannon , Down tbe quays the forces sppwed interminable , par . ticulatly towards the Invalides , and a coojiderablo train of artillery was iu waitinjr , ready to move at & moment ' s notice . Round and inside the Chambers the forces were also exceedingly great .

    The President took tho chair at a quarter past eight In the morning . The Pbesident ; I shall resder you an account In a few words of what bas passed since we separated . ( Atten . tion . ) All the points of the town occupiid by the insurgents and the troops , remained up to one o ' cloek in the morning without attack oa both sides . It woald appear that tbe struggle ought to continue to-day in an energetic manner ; the insurgents appear to have extended their mains of resistance . Several barricades which were destroyed yesterday hfiVebeeU re-MCOtefl in SeVOiul parts—in fact , the insurrection has spread . Measures have been taken to concentrate the forces in such a manner that in a few hours the insurrection will be put down .

    The President submitted the following decree : — ' The National As » embl > decrees—The Republic adopts the children and ths widows of the citizens who have fallen on the 23 rd of June , and who may still perish in defence of ordtr , liberty , and republican institutions .

It was thus worded ;—' Monsieur le President . —The Executive Committee would think that it would be wanting alike In its honour and its duty if it withdrew before a sedition and B public peril . It withdrew only on a vote of the Assam , bly .

    The Pbesident : I have to giva bri . fly on recount of the present state of matters . You ore ow . to thnt tho commands were d . Tided into three , but the plan adopted has been to send large forces to certain points , leaving Others una' tucked for tha moment . In the F : \ ubourg St Jarqaes . where tho insurgents had concentrated a itreatpart of their forces , tho barricades wcrefoiced , and thatdistrict is now completely or nearly distBgaged .

    Sdhdat . June 25 . —At ha'f-pnst tiuht o ' clock Citizen Senard , the President , took tho chair . ' The communications I havo to make to tho Assembly , ' said Citizen S >; nsrd , ' are most satisfactory . The night was perfectly calm , and , whfit is bet'er , thtre is a certainty that order will be qihkly restored in ths quarters whtrache resistance ba 1 b ? en most obstinate .

    At ono 0 clock , the sitting of tho Assembly was resume ? . The members of the Erecu ' ive Government hive quitted their ( iffi'ialRCRts . Thryrow sit In different pnr : s of tho house , Ciiiz . n de Lamartine has token his place oppovite to his forner place , and close to the p l aces occupied by Citizen Thiers , Citizen Cremieux , and Citizen Berrytr . Citizen Ledru-Rolliu has taken a seat behind the ministerial bmches , and Citizen Marie is seated close behind him . Citizen Qaralsr-Fages and C itizen Arngo wtrn not present . Tho members having been rt-appolnted ad interim by General Cavaignao , still occupy their official seats .

    C > tizen Sena & d . the President , rose and laid that he wished to infotra the Assembly of the present general state of Paris . ILj reminded tho Assembly tbat atthe morning Bitting be had given satisfactory assurances that on the left bank of tho Seine ibe insurgents bad been dispersed , nnd that ord » r had been re-established , It was true that nt some of th * Boulevards in tk « t quarter , at some of the barriers , and evm in sotn « parts y >( tho interior of tbe quarter , yesterdaj in possession o ths Insurgents , some attempts had been made to raife fresh barricades , but those attempts bad recn quickly overcome , the parties attempting them bad been easily dispersed by the troop * , and the barricades th « mstlves

    done away with . As to the position of tbe right bank of the Seine , if not quite so conclusive or eo satisfactory as that of tho other , he could state tbat there alto tho oiuse of order was rapidly gaining on evtry poin ; . In the Faubourg St Antoine aiviral bsrrlcadea hai been taksaby tho military , and the insurgents were hemmed in on nil sides , and could hot obtain soy succour . In several points tho struggle was still contlaued , but as far as . it had yet gone , the victory was on every point in farour of the military . The insurriction was losing its strongest positions ; and , therefore , ho might say . that thecauscof order was there , as on the other side , in a satisfactory state .

    The sitting was fuppended , but was rtsiimtd at a quarter past throe ; Citizen Geo , Lafayette in the chair . Citizen Drcocx : I yield to the wish of a great number of m . colleagues , and come to tho tribune to Inform you of what I have just sfiid to General Cavnignac . Everywhere the insurrection is bsing put down . The insur . gents havo yielded ground everywhere ; 5 , 000 stand cf arms have bctn taken . Ths Nallotftl Guaid bas been admirable in its conduct ; from bouse to houso , with admirable instinct , it gained those which commanded tbe insurgents , and by discharges of musketry from above succeeded in swvrping ihem from their position , A Voice : Whi're ! Citizen Dccod * : In the Rue du Faubourg du Temple . Tho ehgioecrj snd tbo pompiers did excellent service , and contributed much to ' produce the result v > birh I now announce . In addition I have to state thnt the Nation *!

    Guard of St Denis , which btfore could not place itself in communication vfith those of Paris , have writt > n word to say that they have now baen able to effect that important object , and are masters of all the Intermediate ground . The National Guard of Montmartre mtkes a similar declaration , and states that tbo fnsurgrnte bave been driven buck in their Behjbbooihoed , The National Guard of Paris , which yesterday seemed struck with stupor——[ a dreadful uproar greeted this ixpreislon . A number of representatives addressed the ton . gentleman In the strongest language of blame . He endeavoured , by word and gesture , to procure a hearing , but in vain . At last the whole of the Asssembly rose with a cry of ' Vive la Gtrde National © ! ' ]

    Citizen Docoux : I regret Ihe word itopor which I used —( renewed agitation)—bnt I did not mean to express any mistrust of that body , or to throw out any offensive insinuation against it . It is certain that yesterday the National Guard did not much leave their houais—that they kept at tbe corners of tbo streets—( marks of great disapprobation)—did not , in fact , rally round their chiefs —( cries of ' Yes , yes , they did' )—whereas to-day they responded with eagerness to the call made on them . . A Voici : Tbey always do so . Citizen Docoux : With their conduct of to-day every , thing is possible , and I can declare tbnt , is a short time when , I cannot take ou me to declare—the future prospects of the Republic and of order will be completely assured . ( Hear , hear )

    Citizen Duclsbc : I do not wish to dwell on tbe expression just employed , which certainly wna unfortunate . The National Guards and tho insurgents had on both sides fought with too much determination —( loud uproar ) —and courage , added the honourable gentleman —( tbe uproar continued—cries of ' begoao , begone , ' ' Vivo la Garde Nationale . ') The cause of my ascending the trl . bono ia manifest—It is to express my dissent from the expression which has beenmirunderotood , as no member , I em oontiocad , could havo bad the slightest intention to wound the susceptibility of the National Guard of Paris . ( Agitation continued . t 0 prevail , )

    The Marquis de LABooHEJtCQUEiiHsaid that be bad no desire to prolong the discussion ; he came there with a fueling altogethtr patriotic and fraternal . No one could in that Assembly claim a monopoly of regret for the blood that bad been shed . He was as much os any man in favour of order and authority , and be would be Berry to recommend anything that might tend to cause tho national sovereignty to act with weakness . But he thought a load and selemn denial ought to be given to detestable rumours which were in circulation , tbat the National Assembly was governed with tho feeling of' woe to the vanquished ! ' [ Terrible agitation ensued , la the midst of which the honourable deputy continued to gesticulate , but could not obtein a hearing , The bon , deputy was at last obliged to quit the tribune . ] The sitting was then again suspended . Tin chair was returned at a quarter to five by Cit ) im Senard .

    The PsfsiOTHX read a letter fsom Citizen Armand MarrsBt , declaring tbat tbe insurrection was new nearly at an end . The troops of the Republic wore is possession of the greater part of the strongholds ef tbo isisurgeuts , the 9 th marie had been taken , and the otherpoiotl towards the Faubourg St Antoine , but at an immense loss of blood . Nevir had anything like it been seen In Paris . ( Groatsensation . ) The Clos St Lczara was in possession of the troops , and only a few dropping shots were now heard . All wonld that night , he hoped , be finished , ( Heur , bear , ) Tho troops had behoved most admirably , Tho Insurgents bud madt ) interior communications between the houses from one to the other , end tbe troops were obliged to force them one by one . The 8 m mairie , the last stronghold of tbe insurgents , was then being attacked . Tbe President then read a proclamation to the insurgent werkmen of a conciliatory cha racier .

    The sitting wai suspended until eight o'clock In ths evening . A regiment of Infantry , coming from theban lleue . had partly passed the bridge over tho oanal St Martin , when the bridge was taken by the insurgents . The troops * ho had passed note driven back to tho canal , and finding

Monday . —At haif . past eleven o ' clock , The Phesideft rose and eaid—I lose no time in Informing the Assembl y of tho torramatloa of tbo crisis . An a de-dt . carap of Gen . Cuval gnnorus just announced to mo , viva voce , tho following iutelii gtBce As soon as the dslegates trom the insurgents returned ibis morning a live ' y agitation was aoticsd omongst them but tbey showed no slges of nurrendtr . At the hour appointed for the renewal of bostllitits Goneri-l Lamoriciere began the attack with the greatest energy , which was met with a

    boost obstinate resistanceon the loft line . At the same mo . ment tbe Faubourg was attacked on ibo right , from the aide of tho Bastille , by General Pcrrot . ~ I » a fen minutes an individual was seen to advance from ( he side of the Insurgents , bearing a fl ? g of truce , and being admitted to a parley with Gmertl Perrot announced the surrender of the insurgents . The troops Immediately advanced , and when the Aide . de camp bad left , three battalions bad entered tbo redoubt without opposition . The Aidede-camp supposed , not having Lierd any more firing , that all was terminated . I have not received further p . rticulars , but it appears certain that the struggle is

    over . The whole Assembly rose and cried 'Vive la Rep « b-Hque . ' To an inquiry about tho Archbishop of Paris , The Pbemdent r < plied , that all he knew was tbat be had been wounecd In the leg . The rrport was prevalf nt tferoagh Paris that he wufl defid . At all CVButg he is badly woundod , but It is said that the ball can bo extracted , and that tbe wound is not mortal . Tha Bishop of Lanobes roae and said be hnd accounts from Cit zcn C Hn , Cure of S . iint Louis , which say , that wi ila tbo Archbishop was fpeaking to a party of ibo in . surgents , with whom he was remonstrating , the drug's suidtnly beat , nnd there was a discharge of musketry from both sides , and tho Archbishop r . ctived a ball in the back ; tho wound is dangerous , and there nro nppreheusioua filwut the result of the operation . Tbe in-Barg .-ntB deny tbat the ball came from their side . I believe tbo wound was accidental .

    The bill presented by the President the night before , declaring that eny person tsken in arms should be transported bejond sea , wr . s then adopted , as was a proposition for tho appointment of a Committee of Inquiry , to Imestlgflte tho circumstances connected with no lute events , as well as those of the attack on the Aesembly on May 15 th . Tho sitting was thin suspended . At a quarter past one tho sitting woe reBorned , The President aaid tbat be could pive all tbe news in 0 word . It la over . ( Loud che rs . ) He resumed Some moments after my statement bad bsen made , on the report of ibe Aide-de c ; mp of Central Cavaignac , it was rumoured 'hnt hostilities had been resumed by the

    insurgents . When a flag of truce is sent forward , n is rtgtrdtd as a collective act . Such was the Aide-dec'lmp ' s opinion , and sucl > was mine , and I hastened to convey the intelligence to tho Assembly . Same of the insurgents could not bave known what the others did , for unfertunately some discharges took place afterwards , However , a second capitulation was madn , SO that all the posts are now in the bunds ef our men . Several nv ssengtrs confirm this statement , Se > jeunt Delisle , ef the E . publican Guard , assures me that be bas just ridd . n through the whole of the Fuubourg Si Antoine from the Batiillo to the Barriere du Troue , and that tbe patro ' s were circulating freel y . He still heard cui . non on the lift , vthere General Lamoriciere was en . gaged , butit had eince ceased .

    Lster in tbo day , a letter was received from Gmera ) Cavaignac given In another place , announcing the termination of tbe revolt . Tbe bureaux , nam' -iS a committee of fifteen members to investigate tho affairs of the 15 th May , end the causp of the insurrection of tbe 23 rd June . Tbe reprcotntativts ore desirous of ascertaining the causes of tbo tiro revolutions , and the connexion which may exist between the emente Bathes and Blanqui , and the emeute called that of the ateliers natlonaux .

    PEIMANBMT SITTING . Trr . sDA 5 Night , Jche 27 . —Tho sitting was resumed at half-past eight . The attendance of representatives was exceedingly great , tnd tho public tribunes wire crowded , ThePaisiDitiT read letters announcing' the deaths of Cit'im ChBrbonnel , end tbe Archbishop of Paris , The discussion on the transportation bill was then brought in . Citiz-m Ssbdanb ascended the tribune , ant was about to speak , when Several Voices exclaimed , 'No discussion ! ' 'No difcussionl '

    Ci-.: z : n Saee & nc : I admire tho c ; uragcof the National Guard , and of tbe army , and I execrate tho orlminil attempt which bas been madothocsuseof so much blood , shed , but I protest against the wholesale proscription , which is new about to be practised .

    Citiz .-n P . Lebocx —I considered this measure to be one of extraordinEry gravity . It corcemed a great num . ber of persons , and jet tho Assembly is acting qndtr the influence of passion . When I a > ked my fellow citizens tonomJpa ' . e me as a reprectn ' atlvs , I did not suppose I wtB coming lo an A ^ tmbly moved by its personol feelings of reseofment , but to a legislative council , ( Violent murmurs . ) Lock at the situation which you make for thotewfcof . re occupied with the srcisl question ; ycu declare—' no concessions to insurrection , ne discussion after the victory .

Lebocx : With these interruptions you ren . drr it Impossible f .. r me to continue ; and if jou do not permit me to speak according to my conscience , I must send in my resignation . ( Renewed interruption ; the

    house being evidently fired of the honourable gentleman . ) Ho went on to say tbat tho Assembly ought to tike Into consideration tho sincerity of ihe men who fought amongst the insurgents . He then spoke of the corruption and selfishness whieh he said existed , pnrticu larly amongst the upptr classes of society , and which he attributed to the Inequality of property . He Inquired If thertputlicwas tolast . and replied that it must continue ; cr , if not , Franco mutt cease , after such violent changes U 8 bad lately taken pisce , to hold her rank amongst nations .

    Some confusion ensued , but afterwards the Assembly decided that the general discussion waa clcsed . Tho articles were then brought forward . Oa Art . i , declaring tbat all Individuals concerned In tbe insurrection of the 22 nd June and the following days should be transported , Citizen Cadbsidiibe objected In strong terms egainst the precipitation with which the bill was urged forward . Where ant ; tr prevailed , reoson could not be properly erer * oised . He understood perfectly well the feeling of mingled sorrow nnd indignation « hich actuated the persons whose friends hp . d perishtd ; but were there not others who bad also , In tho oturso of their Uvea ,, suff . red equally ?

    The same V ^ ice : No , but assassins ! That is what you want , ( Great agitation , ) Citizen CaDSSIDIEBE : Let it not be aoM that they were acting as If through a hatred of humani'y . ( Ob , oh ) I must declare that the insurrection hsis been made in the namo of tbe democratic and social Republic ; these three words I acknowledge also as my creed . Yes , there are amongst them assassins—there are amongst them men who have distributed money , but there are also men of perfect sincetity , whose id *»» have carried them too f . trmen whose brain was turned : ( Oh ! oh !

    Citizen Caussidjebe : You ore told , If you do not remove or kill these nun , others will kill them . ' Such an objection Is unworthy of the Assembly , and I cannot conceive tbat It could have been serlou « ly made . Do you want to havo in Purls , in a fortnight , nothing but widows and orphans ?

    Cittaen Vivien , the President of the Committee on tbo bill , said tha he understood that thtro were a cumber of amendments , many r ' Coromeneing the en ploiment ^ at least partially , of tho usual forms of justice . With the number of prisoners already token—between five thousand aim sis thousand —that course * ould bo impossible to make use of the usual forn . n of justice .

    A vast number of amendments wore proposed , bnt tho folloHian were tho only tnes adopted . On Article I it was decided that the date for ih * individuals found With arms in their hands sho uld been and afur ths V 3 ni ot June , in place t f th ' . 22 ud ; that « tbey thould bs proved to have be > in cene rntd in the insurrection ;* and , lastly , that ' their wives and children should be al « lowed to accompany thtm , ' Ttils Isst Bmenamcat Brocaded from Clttz n Ie «

    lNBliKttfCTlON OF THE WORKMEN AT MARSEILLES . On the 22 ud about 4 , 000 worknrcn went in pn c ° asiontothe Prefect and demanded that the hours of labour sbculd by qVcree be reduced from eleven tn ten . Thin beinp refused they bej > an to form barri " cuelee , and the National Guards and some troops of tbo line marched against them . A vigorous defence was made , and upwards of fift y NafionU GuarJs were billed or woutded . Tha cenmiimdtr-in-cbief received several shtts in his face . Tbe trooia of the line aho lustained some less . The National trUJ . rde would have continued tbe attack , and the commander of tbe troops oi the line was determined to do tho same , but the civil authorities entered into a patley with the insurgCLts , and fraternised with them .

    The in-urgents engaged to take down tbe barricades but insstead of performing their engagement , fortified tbemaelveB during the night , and < n the morning of the 23 rd ult . their defences had becomo formidable . Cn the 23 rd ult- the attack re-commenced . Sc . veral pieces of cinron were brought t «) play upon the barricades , which were successively carried . Tha loss of life in the second day ' s combat appears not ta have been so great as might have been expected , considering the resistance made , particularly in the bouses of which the insurgents had taken possession , and from which they fired upon the troops . Alter the taking of th * barricades , the insurgents were attacked with grest vigour in the houses , and eig ht hundred atresia are said to have hen made . Among tbem fere several women armed with po < niards .

    BOHEMIA . IBE BOMDABBMBNT CF PRAGUE . Prague is a heap of ashea . Tha cannon neve * ceased vomi'ing destruction upon the ill-fated city during ihe ' wimle of the 16 th ult . The slaughter has , according to all accounts , been fearful . The LBirzic Gazsitb brings the news up to the eve of the lGoh . The details are interesting;—On the 13 th , at mid-day , tbe military had completely the upp ; r band , and Prince Wlndiscbgralz determined torest-jrn the cwmn unications between tbe old and new town . For this purpose be caused the chain bridges over tho Moldeu , which had been broken , to be repaired , and the barricades on tbe Itsier side to bo taken b ^ storm . In this affair several of the troops were hilled .

    being shot from the neighbouring windovts , The fighting here lasted till sis oVlock in tho oft . rneon , when the Czech party d ^ mane ' ed a parley , end hope ? wereJiBl * out tbat the siu'ients and the people would lay d 0 l 0 families sight bo e = ^ n & fing through tbe pates of tho cit ; , leaving their oil behind . A'ter tht breaking tff the parley tbo people retired to Poltkal , where tbey concentrated themselves , and where tha Jagrre and hussars followed tbem , fo attack them . There a terrible slaughter ensued on both sides ; twenty , six hussars were thrown into the Moldau by the peopls .

    and the battle letted cntil tbe 14 th of Jane , at half , past n ne . On that day General Ctunt Menadoiff arrives from Vienna , in order to assume the command-io-chlef , in the hop * that as the Bohemian" seem to bave taken a vehement dislike to Prince Windisebgratz , tbe astump . t ' on Of sonatnand by Mensdorf } might restore penca . This was , horn ver , a vain hope ; the tumult Increased every moment , the fight was renewed , and the Czech party obtained possession of tbe town . Prince Win * tllechgralz then abandoned tbe totvn with the military , and retired to the heigh t * round the city , from thence to bombard the town , Tbe Lorenz : ^ her ( f , the Miriest , chanze , nnd the Ziseabcrg were occupied with cannon { sol tbe Clemcnt ' . nuto , Carolinum , and Thereabv . num strongly cannonaded , Such was the state cf b ?» fairs on the morning cf the 16 . h to which date . ursc . counts reach . Count Leo Tbuo bad been obliged to fly in tho dltjguise of a servant .

    Another account deacribes the state of the city as terrible .
