lilt , £ Ktt . \ Ui REPUBLIC . tSODRSTS OF THE LATS STRUGGLE ThBheussthat-bsloiigeuto Pepin ( executed with FieaeM ) . situate at the corner of the Faubourg St Antoine , is riddled with shot , bat those at the corcere on each hand aie knocked literally to pieces The house at the opposi e corner of the Rue de ia Baguette was on Friday a tailor ' s establisfamertacd a billiard-room . The former , and some adjoining homesi . no lrager exist . Aheap of sacking ruins carefully watched by firemen , is all that remains V ^ -LIC .
Dp to the Faubourg du Temple I observed but slight traces of the battle . A few balls only were impressed on the Portes St Denis and St Martin but on reaching the Quaide Valmy , epposite the ' bridge crossing the Caml St Martin , I found the remains ot the barricade which intersected that part of the Rue Faubourg da Temple . The houses at either corner of the street had been occupied by the insurgents . Every window in them was broken , and the walls showed numerous traces of showers of balls . On the Qasi de Valmy , next the house forming tbe left corner , there is a yard filled with stones , which faces the canal . The whole length of the wall had b & en loopholed at short intervals , and a communication established with the street through the rear of
the house . On the opposite side of the canal the insurgents htid taken possession of a house at the corner ofthe Rue Fontaine an Roi / and offered ko stout a resistance , that ti dislodge them the artil ery were compelled to bum the house . A little further up the Faubourg du Temp ' e , at No . 40 , I . counted no less than eight distiaet holes made by cannon balls . Tbat house was also set on fire , but it was immediately extinguished . The ravages of the artillery in the Faubourg da Temple are dreadful . There is scarcely a pane of glass unbroken , and , to judge from the innumerable traces ef cannon and musket balls , almost
every house in the street must have been occupied and defended fay the combatants . The situation of the inhabitants was awful . For three days their bouses were alternately ! taken by tbe insurgents or the fcrces of the Republic . The shutters cf the windows and shops were battered to pieces ; cannon balls aud bullets pnurei into the houses , and whole families were compelled to seek re use in the cellars till the battle was over . The insurgents attempted to burn tbe barracks in the Faubourg du Temple , but the first was not suffered to make rrueh progress . The gates , however , are partly destroyed .
When the rappd was beaten at Belleville , on Friday last , only 123 National Guards turned out , although one battalion alone comprised 1 200 men . A portion of the rest , including many officers , joined the insurgents , and aided in thiowin ; up huge barricades at the barrier ( the Ccurlille ) There were few traces of the battle as high up as Belleville , but , in consequence of tbe treason of the National Guard , General Cavaignao has ordered that they should surrender their arms , and tbeir district has t « en declared in a state of siege .
On Friday the insurgents possessed themselves o ' the barracks in the Faubourg St Martin , near the gfeat buildings of the Donane , and they only abandoned them OU Sunday night , when their comrades evacuated the Faubourg du Temple . In this post , which they defended by several barricades , they fought with incredible violence . On several eccasions a parley took place between them and tbe National Guard ? , who besieged them . On Saturday they demanded a parley , and the fire immediately ceased . Some National Guards approached , and the chief of the insurgents asked to be conducted to General Cavaienac . The General received them , and exacted a submission without conditions . The chiefs declared tbat they could not treat on such terms , and
they required to be reconducted to the post . Tbey were accordingly taken back . Noebot was fired at them , neither did the insurgents fire on the National Guards who conducted them as they withdrew from the barricade . A little after the chiefs raised the hilts of their swords in the air to notify that they desired another parley . This bsing granted , they announced that unconditional submission was not accepted by their comrade ? , but that they would yield if they were told what would be done with them . All these interviews having led to no result , the combat re-commenced , and soon became more murcerous than ever . It was kept up this way all Saturday , Sunday , and until Sunday night . The insurgents were possessed of a piece of cannon .
A woman cut up with a knife the body of a Garde Mobile ; she was taken and beaten to death with * he butt-ends of muskets . The resistance at tLe Barriere Rocheehonart was terrific ; k lssted from Friday afternoon to Sunday night . Tbe insurgents had pierced the outer wall of Paris with loopholes , through which they ( fired on the troops inside . A piece of artillery made bo impression on them ., and a second piece was brought . These two guns caused little slaughter until the National Guards acd ilia troops of the line made a breach in the walls . Then the slaughter was dreadful , but the insurgents did not yie ! d until the ground was strewed with dead . The loss on the side of the troops was great .. Yon may jndae of this when I tell yon that one company ff National Guards lost twenty-seven in killed ; atd that a small detachment of seventeen , under the orders of a surgeon , which rushed to the assault , returned in five minutes
with only sis . In the Faubourg St Antoine , and at the Barriere Roeheehouart , the losurgents cast balls during the whole of the contest , and with forged orders from the Msiries , kept the druggists occupied in mating powder . They were evidently all under the order of experienced chiefs . A correspondent of one of tbe daily papers writes from Paris on Thursday . Amon ? the wonndsd at tbe Hospital Saint-Louis is a captain of the National Guard , who was taken whilst fighting on the side of the insurgents . He is ¦ wounded in the arm , snd gangrene has commenced , hut he refuses to submit to amputation . Therewe several other insurgents who were yesterday at the poini of death , for , before they were found and brought to the hospital , they had concealed themselves to prevent arrest , and , ttieir wounds not having been attended to , mortincaf ' on bad taken : pfece .
It results from an investigation made at iherequest ofthe De Narbonae family , that the insurgent whs was shot with arms in his hands in tha garden of the Luxembourg , and who has been called the Count de Narbonre , was a person named Lecomte , of the town of NaT-bonne , This man married the wife of Pepin , who was guillotined for participation in the Fieschi affair . The body of a man who was president of tbe Club des Droits ' de 1 'Hernme , attended by large numbers of the working classes , and who had acquired the soubriquet of' Tets deBrcnzi , 'bas been recognised at the Morgue . He was killed at the barricade ia the Rue Roeheehouart . M . Vacdeventer found on an insurgent who was dying a card of the club of the ' Montagnards de Belleville , ' in tha name of Augusta Dalieheux . The Bias Pcblic has the following : —
The Society of the Rights of Han pretends to have beea a stranger to tbe late insurrection . This society numbers thirty-five thousand men , and reterre . itself for the future . A draught of a decree written with a pencil was found on tbe person of an instrgent . It was to the following effect . •—Art . 1 . AH cltissns paying mere than 200 francs taxes ar » deprived of their civil and politxal rights during ten years . Art . i .

Art 4 . The army is disbaudid . The Johssai . des Debits announces that M . Bourdon , the editor of the Le Faubocbien , who fought in the ranks of the insurgents , died of his wounds on Wednesday P
. . . _ The following is an extract from the letter of a French lady , dated June 21 : — Yesterday evening , at about seven o'clsck , I went as far as the Pantfeeon . I chatted with the little Garde M oblle who searched my pockets , and when I asked h ! rn whence arose the market shots heard on all side ? , he BilS , with the greatest sangfroid , ' They are sheeting the insurgents , and there are enough to occupy' them the whole treeing . '
( From the correspondent of the Britannia ) For nearly four whole days the civil war rsged furiously . On Fiidsy morning the first shots were fired , and it was not until late on Monday that the insurrection could be considered quelled ; nay , it mav be doubted even at this moment whether it can be said to te definitively subdued . At tint the rising appeared to be unimportant—only a lew barricades were erected near the Porte St . Denis , and they were not very stoutly constructed , nor very numerously defended . By midday a crowd bad assembled round them from mere curiosity , juet ^ as they assembled around a mountebank performing his feats . Presently a detachment of National Guards arrived , and commenced firing on tbe men behind the barricades , though it is not certain whetker it was they or the insurgefits who discharged
tbe first shot . I was present at the time , ana ; saw a ram , who stood on the barricade with a tricolour flag extended , brought down to the earth like a partridge . I was really astonished at the cool auda » elty of this poor mistaken fellow . He stood on the barricade with all the pompous swagger of a melodramatic hero , holding his flag forth at arm ' s length , as if in haughty defiance of attack . The National Guard approached—near they came and nearerstili he shrank not : A hundred muskets were le vailed towards hiai ; bat the only effect that appal- , ling spectacle appeared to have on him was that hii brow became sterner , his lcok more expressive of bitter hatred and score bis attitude firmer and more darin ? , whilst his flag geeraed to wave more proudly intkebreez * . There was a pause-an awful pause . but still he stood unshrinkingly , fearlessly as ever , though all around him looked on in dismay .

— " > ers is a i emb ! e shriek from the crowd ofspectators-and ihe man of the flag , bold to the last , lies oni tke other side of the barricade a bhedy corpse ' Ihis I saw with my own eyes ; and oh ! it made my heart ache and my head swim ! But this act , though in its way sublimely heroic , was outstripped over and over asain in the course of the insurrection . Even oa tbat very barricade two young and neatly . dressed girls—respectable girls too , it seems , for they served in well-known shops—weresfain whilst , one afterthe other , tbey he ' . d on high the dead man ' s flag , though bullets were whizzing about like hail ! ( From the correspondent of the Sunday Times . ) —tbers i 3 a terrible shriek from th . rmgrf . f . „ J
FaiDAT . —In the streets the blouses are loud ia their threats . The whole of the 8 ; h and 12 th legions < f National Guard , disarmed by order of government are ready to march again at the first signal of insurrection . They are still in possession of vast quantities of arms , hidden in places where they can never be found . In none of ihe quarters where the insurgents had possession , didany ofthe much talked-of pillage take place They took arms and bread , but for these fhey gave orders on the Hotel de Ville , under the supposition that in a few hours tbe new revolution would have triumphed .
ORGANISATION OF THE KSURKtCTION . The fallowing interesting notice of the late insurrection is given by the Debats : — At first we estimated the number of Insurgents at from 2 S . 0 Q 0 to 30 . 000 combatants , but now that the real facts can be better appreciated , after four days of fighting upon an immense circle , we may carry the nutnbir to 40 , 009 This amount will not appear to bs eioggerated , when it is considered that ' a force of not lees than double that number was required to triumph over ibis insurrection , which has been the most formidable , tho best conducted , the most deiperate that we hare ever Kin , Four days of riot by large assemblages preceded the explosion , during wbich tumult everything was prepared . Rendezvous for the combatants were appointed ; deposits of
arms and ammunition were formed ; posts were assigned , and the cbiefs sat in secret council . The fallowing are ssid to have been these cbiefs and their lieutenants . First , they were tbe chiefs and eub-cbiefs of the ateliers nationsor , the officers of the garde republicatne , dismissed from that corps when it was reorganises , tbe men expelled from this guard , and tbe msntagnards , fom & rare deserters from the garde nationale aobile , and even some officers of this guard , but these were very few ; tbe most ^ vehement clusbists . Many old soldiers , sotaa men of intellecinal capacity , and others of more elevated positions , organised , directed , and executed this great movement , this new Jacquerie , Fg intt socivl order and civilisation . Iu all the indirections of which Peris has bees tbe theatre in the coarse of the last seventeen
years a certain number ofthe youths of the schools and of sommtrce have taken a prominent f art . In Fecruory all the schools entered into the movement with gres ) t warmth , but nothing of tbe kind has occurred on the present occasion . This revolt bad in its ranks as sol - diers none but workmen , and , we may say , bad workman—a blind mass wh « m the furious had subjugated by preaching the most horrible monstrosities , and incul . cation ttat a social wer was the only means for isaprov - ing their lot—fat :: ! prtdictions which tha bighsst and most cultivated minds commenced long ago . T « this ennmeraticn ofthe insurrectionary army we may add several tbossmds of liberated convicts and many that hsd made their escape . After baring , as above , pointed oat the characters of the leaders , no surprise can hi felt
at our having had to signalise a vast and well-conceived plan , the expoiition ol which has not only struck every one who ha « read it , but even astonishei our ; mtil > . The war of barricades , so well known to the people of Farls from its frequent repetitions that a man hag received thecjgnom . n of 'le Profcsseur des Barricades , ' has this time been improved to a most singular degree , so that it has been cecesssr ? to bring into play against it the most entrgetfc means used in regular sieges to overc me it , and n quiring four days and four nights of inveterate conflicts . The more distant barricades , l ' . ke those ia the qmrtier Saint Antoine , which could be r . iieed at leisure , were sucb regular and strong constiuction « , formed of square stone , mixed with the paving stones , of such thickness , that they wire cannoa-uroof .
Some of these barricades were in the shape of an angle , either to neutralise the effect ofthe ball ; fired upon them , or t ^ admit of across fire upon the troops advancing to attack them . In several streets tbe insurgents took possession of thehomes , aod , making , openings in the party-Walls between , established a length of covert . way , which allowed them to move to or retreat from point to point , as their assailants advanced or retreated , without being eipsscd to'thcir fire . At tbe tame time tbey broke out the windows , and stopped them up again with the bed . mattresses and other articles of furniture , whilst their best marksmen kept up a murderous firs with muskets re-loaded by their comrades as toon a * they were dischargea . Many bouses and other buildings suitably situated were converted into genuine fortresses , which
for a very long time resisted the assaults of the bational Guards ' ef Paris , the Garde Mobile , the brave National Guards of the department , and the battaliens ef the line . All rivalltd each other in courage , displaying the same ardour , sometimes , perhaps , too impetuous , which caused them at some points to experience losses more dreadful than in open fi-. ld of battle , in the proportion of four to one . These fortresses , formed atthe moment by tbe insurgents , wera chttfly at the foot of the Pont Saint Michel , en tbe left bank ef tbe river , the Caurch of Sa ' nt Sereris , tbe Pantheon , the Eeolede Dr ^ it , ths Church of Saint Qcrvals , behind the Hotil de VUle , the hoasesia Pisco Saint Gervais and Place Bandoyer , the Rue do Templo , and the Faubourg eu Temple , some hew buildings in the Clos Saint Lszere , tbe angles of the wide
streets which open upon the Place de la Bastule , aad Use Faubourg Saint Antoine , which was the last to be conqaered , ' and where 20 , 000 issnrgents still held out . It is sad to ssy , bat & preat tntoy of the 8 th and 12 th legions of tbe National Guard , which bare been since disarmed , took an open part in tbe insurrection , joined by several of their offlsers . It will be recollected that in these legions , and tnore particularly in the 12 th , which had chosen M . Barbes for Its colonel , the candidates for th ; different ranks of officers were called upon to declare whether or no they would march to the succour of the National Assembly , if the people efeonldwish to over , throw it . This participation of National Guards and officers in uniform powerfully contribued to the terrible extension which the movement gained in-these two arrondiisements , and has set a meet " fatal example to these
quarters . The number of victims on both sides is immenso . Some persms have estimated the total of killed and wounded at 10 , 000 men . Most of the wounds are horrible . To reckon tbe general loss , it suffices to count the generals who were weunded . Out of ten whocomrtandea " , two wer « billed and five wounded . The names of thoie killed ore Negrier and Brea ; of those wounded sre Bedeau , Duvlvitr , Damesme , Korte , Lafontaiae , Fbnche . Those who escaped untouched were Generals tefcreton , Perrot , aud Lamoriciere ; but the last had two horses klllid under him . The oldest soldiers declare , that in no one of the battles of the Empire wes the proportion of tbe gf-nerals killed and wounded so great , and that never was there in any assault of fortress , citadel , or redoubt , so many men lost as tst the barricades of Paris iu these terrible affairs of June .
( From ' the Morning Chronicle . ) - Now tbat the straggle is ever , people are beginning to ask how it all came about , and what was the causa and origin of an insurrection which , for ferocity , obstinacy , and length of endurance , is unparalleled in the history of the world . From the details which you have already had ofthe acta ofthe insurgents , and from the regular military plan on wbich the operations were carried on , it must te evident that the insurrection , so far from being a
spontaceous and inconsiderate movement on the part of igntrant and head-strong ouvriers , was an able and weU-ccncocted military movement , arranged according to rule , carried out with steadiness and vigour , and tbe -whole progress of which shows that it was the work of a shrewd , intelligent , and experienced military leader . It is also quite clear that tbe insurrection was a scheme long arranged , ard that - ivhen the insurgents commeaced tbeir operations , every , ore knew where fce wss to take up his p 6 st , what he was to do , and to whom he was to lrok for
order * . In the many hundreds of barricades thrown up during the eventful night of the 23 rd of June , there was not one which was misplaced ; there was nofrone which was useless , and not one that waa forgotten . When the military came < o attack the insurgents , they found , to their surprise , that , instead of haviag to do with a few isolated parties of outiners fighting from street to street ,, they iad to attack a regular lice of works , rudely constructed , to be sure but admirably contrived for tbeir purpose , and extendic" frcm point to point till they embraced the
nearly one-balf of Paris . So ably were points ; of dofence chosen , and so complete was the line of barricades , that , although the whole waa thrown up iione night-without the knowledge of the inhabitants mineral , and apparently without : the knowledge of the authorities , it was sufficient , with an inferior force , to keep 80 , 000 troops , with 100 . 000 auxiliaries in tbe shape ef National Guards , in cbfr-k for four days . Not only was this the esse , but it is now ascertained that , at one time the \ nmmc tionists were as near as possible gaining the victory .
It will fce recollected that the insurgents , by tn * ir line of defences , secured the Pont St Michel , and another bridge which kept up their communication on both bar . ks of the Saine . Oa Saturday , when General Cavaignac ordered the attack upon the hflrrioides . intheneighbsurhood of the Place Mmbert , he wsa gurpriicd at the o bstinacy of the defence ; and it was not till afterwards that he discovered tbat he bad hit on the most important pent in ths lines ' -of tha insurgents , a It was on tbe defence of that point that their communication
between the two banks of tho Seme depended , and when General Cavaignac took it he had already halt dtfe & ted his adversaries . Some of the insurgents had since ackcowlfdged that that attack completely deranged their plans . At the time when it was made , thiy Were just preparing to concentrate 30 000 of their men to attack tbe Hotel de \ ille , and they calculated that , the Hotel de V tile being once in their power , tfae entire victory wonld soon follow , and some experienced military m « a think that , in their opinion , they were right .

Republican party for many years . The sections have been , and remained , in existence these thirty years aad o \ wards , ' I am told . 'They were , ' say my iDformants / the Sections who effected the rev j lution of 1830 , atd who . two or three months afterwards , projected overthrowing the government of Louis Philippe . They wore the sections who fought in 1832 and 1834 and in 1839 ( under Barbes ) , but never since 1832 . until 1848 . did they act with anything like unanimity . ' In a word , it is believed that there are no great new names to be quoted of persons implicated in this conspiracy who were capable of organising it , militarily orothercriae , and of rendering it general , and , consequently , truly dangerou ' . The conspiratorswhoever they were P—» - .. . .
, , reckoned , it is believed , on the aid of tha masses ; but why they should have done so with anything like reason I cannot say . Thev also counted upoq ! h > ierrorthey could inspire ; and they deemed -tbe National Guard unequal to aconttst with them " , because of thenumber of their own partisans tbat they knew were in its ranks , aud who , because of the general obligatioB to serve in it , could not be excluded from it . They saw early the danger of allowing the introduction of troops into Paris , and aftir the 17 ih ot March compelled the withdrawal of these who had been literally smuggled in ; but the troops weie adroitly brought into the capital after the affair of tbe 16 th of April , and ever since their numbers have been gradually increasing .

( From the Morning Chronicle ) BXTENS 1 V 2 CAPTURE OF AF . MS—IVCBNDIARItM AND ASSASSINATION—PURSUIT IF THE I . N 8 UBOENTS . Saturday . —The troops and National Guards were to day , as they wera yesterday , engaged in scouring the country all round Paris , taking arms anilmaking prisoners . About 1 , 200 insurgents were taken to tbe fort at St Denis this morning . Upwards of 100 000 stand of arms , belonging either to insurgents or disbanded National Guards , have been conveyed to Vincennes . Four men were arrested who were manifestly trying to set fire to the barracks at Ourbe voie . Last night a plan for an extensive conflagra tion was discovered in tbo Bois de Boulogr-. e . The forests about Versailles and St Germain cause much uneasiness and are undergoing a thorough examination . A friend of mine living near the National Assembly was awakened tbe other night by a shot of which a sentinel oh duty became the victim . In cendiarism and assassination have succeeded tbe
insurrection . Le Represkntant du Pbuplk , one of the organs of tbe working classes , states that General Cavaignac had settled a plan for the dissolution of the national ateliers . Some of the workmen are to be transferred to private ateliers where the means of employment yet exist . An office is to be opened at each Mairie , when * workmen will receive information as to the ateliers where work may be had . Those who cannot find labour are to receive out-door relief until work be found , and a great number are to be conveyed as colonists to Africa . ( From the Morning Chronicle . )
Sundat MoRsijfO . —The tranquillity of Paris and its neighbourhood continues undisturbed , notwithstanding the rumours to the contrary circulated by the alarmists . The defeat of the anarchists is so complete , that they will not attempt to raise their heads for some time . ' It is the general opinion , however , that the struggle is * not yet at an end , and tbat the period is not far distant when we shall see tho streets ofthe capital once more flawing in blood . Although the city still continues in a stated siege , the inhabitants do not suffer any great inconvenience from tbat circumstance . Tho streets are as crowded
as in ordinary times ; the Champs Elysets have a considerable sprinkling of promenades , and tbe traces of the recent contest ate rapidly disappearing . The gardens of tbe Tuileries and the Luxembourg are , however , still closed , as well as tbe galleries of the Louvre and the Theatres . In tho evening , at nine o ' clock , the retraile is beaten , and the streets are cleared by strong bodies of National Guards , after which the sentinels are rather troublesome in their examination of persons wandering in the public ways . Every night also the illumination of the houses continues by order of the authorities .
Several new prisoners have breu arreated , and among others M , Grandmesnil , the principal editor of the Reforme , the organ of MM . Ledru-Rollin and Flocon . M . Emile de Girardin . who has been several times examined before tbe juges d'instruction , is still ait secret , and even his wife has not beeh allowed to communicate with him . M . Theophile Thore , the editor of theVaAiE Repl' ^ lwjue , has also been arreated ; and alaoM . Berinier , a painter , who is an intimate friend of M . Sobrier . The disarming of the 8 th , 9 th , and 12 th legions is still going on with great activity , and it is said that the number of muskets restored to the authorities or seized by them amount to upwards of 200 , 000 stand of arms . The whole of the arms are at once carried to the Castle of Vincennes .
General Bourgon expired oh Friday , at two o ' clock , in consequence of the wounds which he bad received at the barricade of the barrier of La Chapelle St Denis . A woman , who said she was a widow , oh her house being searched , was found to have Vis muskets concealed in her mattress besides ball cartridges . Theshops ' are all open , but there is no trade . € oin is again scarce . One per cent , is the lowest charge for changing bank notes into specie ( silver . ) The markets are tolerably well supplied , luxuries , however , find bnt few purchasers . On the 24 th tho' prisoner Barbes and others who were at Vincennes were removed to Hara . M . ' Emile'de Girardin has undergone several examinations . The cause of his arrest is said- to be some correspondence which baa been-detect * d , and not merely the articles in his journal .
Numerous arrests were made to day , and some important documents obtained . Amongst the persons arrested are L'Heritier , an old political convict and member of several secret societies ; Barral , subdirector of the ateliers nationauxand captain of tha lltu legion ; Cavallon , chief of the Club Democratique Guerlneau , vice-president ot the Club de la Hontagne , & c , & o . Last nicht seven hundred prisoners were sent to the Fort de Vanves . It appears that the statement of M . Iluber , ex-President of the Revolutionary Club , who , on tke 15 th of May , pronounced the dissolution of the
Assembly ,. having been recognised by the agents of pslice nmong the wounded at tho Hospital of St Antoine , and arrested , is not true , M . Iluber , when set at liberty , through an error committed at the Mairie ofthe 4 th arrondiasement , on the evening of the 15 th of May , has been in vain sought by the police , andit appears pretty certain that be has gone to some foreign country . The . result of the election which has just taken place in Corsica for a representative in the Assembly , has been the almost unanimous return of Prinoo Louis Napoleon , who obtained 35 , 903 votes , the entire number being only 38 ,
197-. The Moniteur contains the appointment of General Changarnier to the command of the National Guards of the department of the Seine . Lights of various descriptions , presumed to be signals , from the tops of houses , have not yet been wholly put a stop to , and notwithstanding immense vigilance , acd tbe searching of houses , it is but com paratively seldom tbat the authors are discovered .
COHTlXTjrD ARRESTS AND SEIZURE OF ARMS . Mos » AT . ~ Spizures of arms and arrests continue to be made . Yesterday a force of 5000 men was directed to Puteaux , a little manufacturing town on the left bank of tie Seine , near the bridge ef Neuilly . The town was surrounded and . all the inhabitants disarmed . This place is said to be a focus of
com-. It is said that 100 , 000 muskets have already been lodged in tbe government . stores , but this is not a full valuation of all that has been done in the way . of disarmament , for the 12 th legion alone , the National Guards of the Faubourg St Matceau , of whom Barbes bad been the colonel , amounted to upwards of . 30 , 000 . The 8 th and fjth legions reckoned perhaps 40 , 000 . To these should be added the National Guards of Belleville , of La Chappelle , of La Vil lette , ef Montmartre , and of a large portion of the intervening line of Boulevard and other place ? . The amoant of arms already seiied or rendered is probably 150 , 000 . Great numbers of insurgents continue to be arrested in the environs of Paris . At St Cloud the National Guards captured sixty , carrying arras and ammunition . In the wood of Salory , at Versailles , several arrests have been made .
It is announced tbat three camps are to bs formed in the neighbourhood of Paris—the one in the Chfttap de Mars , the secpnion the plain of Salory , near Versailles , and the third at St Maw . Tbe number of troops round Paris ia to ba 60 . 0 GO . Tcbsdav . —M , de Chateaubriand die" this morning , after an illness of five days , from an attack of inflammation of the chest . Five hundred insurgents were arrested to-day . A good many of the insurgents are still in the neighbourhood of Paris .

Nearly a thousand prisoners were this day taken from the Conciergerie and removed to the fort of oicetre . They were bound together two and two , and escorted by the Garde Mobile and the soldiers ol the line . On Sunday and yesterday a commissary of police , nsaisted by National Guards , soldiew of tho line , end gendarmes , visited a great number of furnished hotels in the 11 th arrondiasement , and disarmed all the persons in them . Un Sunday night 200 prisoners , confined in the barracks of the Rue de Tournon , dug through the ground to the quarries beneath , and descended to them . There is , however , no issue to the quarries , so that escape is impossible .
sixteen hundred prisoners confined in the Fort d'lvry , have attempted to escape by excavating a passage from tbeir dungeons with large nails . Wednesday . —Additioni ! arrests have taken place , including M . Savagner , professor of history ; Jacqneg Taion . a lieutenant in the Natienal Guard of La Vilette ; and Nicholas Clement , an officer of Artillery of the National Guard . Ono hundred and twenty of tbe workmen from the ateliers nalionoux , who touk part in the insurrection , have been arrested at Chatou and Nanterre . A clandestine manufactory of gunpowder has been discovered by the police to the apartment of an operative watchmaker in the Rue P « ulaillerie .
THK PfilSONERS . The niedieal men who have the duty of inspecting the prisons and vaults in which the immense number of insurgent prisoners are crammed together with only straw to lie on , and scarcely sufficient space to extend themselves without compressing each other , express grave apprehensions of tbe production among them of some of those epidemics incidental to such situations . THE WOUNDED . Most of the insurgen ' s who have been wounded die in a short time after their entrance into the hospitals . The medical men attribute this mortality to the neglect which they bad met with at the period of their receiving their wounds , and to the want of surgeons to give them assistance at the first moment . It was principally women who were employed inputting on the first dressings , ind their inexperience has caused mortification to come on in many instances .
IUBMBLE BUTCHERY OP PRISONERS . Friday EvKNiNO . —Tho insurgents , who had established themselves in tho Bois de Boulogne , had been dislodged , and all who were made prisoners , 170 in number , it was said , had been forthwith shot . PROGRESS OF TUB COUNTER REVOLUTION . —SUPPRESSION
OJ THK NAIIUNAI , WORKSHOPS . Vigorous measures are in progress for the effectual protection of the capital against any future outbreak . The 3 rd division of infantry of the nrroy of the Alps , under the command of General Keynault , is hourly expected . This division , consisting of eleven battalions , will be permanently encamped at St . Maur , situated beyond the Eastern Faubourgs of Paris . The bureaux of the chamber continued on Monday the discussion of tho project of the constitution , and more especially of its preamble containing tho declaration of the rights of man . In three of tbe bureaux this declaration was altogether rejected , in some ethers it was postponed until after the discussion of the article ? . The declaration of the right of every citizen to employment excited the strongest objections in all the bureaux .
The committee of tke Assembly to inquire into the state ofthe labouring classes adopted on Monday a resolnti > n . of which the basis is toabrogate M . Louis Blanc ' s famous decree for the limitation of the hours of labour . The Mobitedb of Tuesday contained adeceee to the followinh effect : —
IN THE NAME OP THE FRENCH PEOPLE . The Presldmt of the Council oi Ministers charged with the executive power determines—Art 1 . Tbe ateliers naiionaua of the department ofthe Seine ore suppressed . Art . 2 . Succour will continue to beglren to labourers without work , under tbo surveillance of the mayors of the diff rent Brr . inditS-inentB .

STATU OF PARIS . According to the correspondent' of tfie Times , writing frem Paris on Monday last , tbat city was then 'tranquil . ' Two S 6 ldi 6 ra were poisoned on Friday . An unfortunate corporal , proceeding with a-relief of sentinels in the neighbourhood of the Bank of France , was fired upon in the Rue des Bons Enfans on Saturday night and had his arm bo shattered that amputation was deemed indispensable to save tho poor fellow ' s life . On Monday between three and five o ' clock in the afternoon , a shot was fired at four officers of the Garde Mobile , who were walking together at the
Croix Rouge , from a house in the Rue Dufour . J he shot did not , however , take effect . A rush was instantly made into the house from which it had been fired , and three men who were arreated were carried off to prison . In the Rue de Sevretr , close by , ardabout the same time , a shot was fired frem a window , the ball from wbich struck an opposite house . Some departmental National Guards on dnty there entered the bouse , and found a man with a musket . lie had no coat , and wiihed to give some explanation , but he was not allowed to put on his Coat , nor say a word , being only told to reserve his defence for the Council of War .
No attempt at barricade making is to bo feared at present . Tbe principal cause for apprehending : a renewal of strife is the situation of the working classes .
THE DEPARTMENTS . It has been decided by the Council of Ministers , that the disarming which is now going on ^ in Paris , shall be extended to all the towns in France in which there is a large population of workmen , and where seditious manifestations have taken place . We perceive by the Bordeaux journals that some agitation , caused it is said by emissaries from Paris , has been remarked amongst the workmen of the eitv , and even a rising had been threatened ; but the arrest of some of the pereons who had occasioned the excitement sufficed to re-establish tranquillity . This was also the case at Dijon on the 28 th ult . The number of arrests there waa rather considerable ,
'A letter from Maraeill
asBist in quelling the insurrection at Paris , went to the station , and formally summoned the men to do their duty , but they refused . He again summoned them , and tbey again refused . He then called on the National Guards to obey him , crying that he would assume all the responsibility of what ho was about to do ; and at the same moment he made them seize one of the ringleaders , and on the man , iu answer to another appeal , again refusing to drive the / engine , M . Martin ordered that he should be instantly shot , and be warned ; the other men that he would treat them in tho same way if they persisted in their refusal . Execution was just about to be done , when the men , seeing , that M . Martin was reallj in earnest , offered to recume their duty .
THE NATIONAL ASSEMBLY . The election of tho President ofthe National As . sembly , in the place of Citiz ? n Senard , appointed to the post of Minister of the Interior , took place on Thursday week , when Citizen Marie was doolared duly nominated , having obtoined 411 votes to 297 , gi ? en to Citizen Dufauro , ' On Friday , Citizen Recurt , new Minister of Public Works , presented o bill demanding a credit of sis millions cf francs for the formation of the railway between Paris and Lyons . At tbe oamo time the President announced that the bill for the ro purchase of the railways by tfae State had been withdrawn from the ord ' trs ofthe day , at the r < q . nest ofthe Minister of the finances . '

The measures were of two kinds : the first , to reassure the public mind as to tbo filellty of the state to its engagements ; and the second , to encourage credit and labour . The priocipsl manure with regard tn tho latter of these objects , was to allot a credit to the Builders' Society—a body whose demands wire remarkable for their justice and their moderation , « nd which employed a large number of the class of workmen which had suffored
most from tbe stagnation of trade , Cit z 3 n Goddchaox , the Minister of tbe finances , then introduced hie financial scheme , which is resumed in tbe following five decrees , which , in due course , will be proposed for tbe adoption of tbe Assembly : — - 1 .

The Assembly then voted , without division , tie loan proposed of five millions to the contactors of buildings in Paris . Another decree was passed declaring that Thursday , tho day of the funeral ceremony , should dp observed as a national holiday .

The European Revolution. Germany, Archdu...
THE EUROPEAN REVOLUTION . GERMANY , Archduke John of Austria , theunole of the Em . peror , has been elected by the Frankfort Constituent Assembly , as Vicar or Lieutenant-General of the Germanic Empire . From Zurich we learn , under date of the 24 th of June , that the German volunteers were preparing for a new invasion of the p , rand'd . uchy of Baden , and that accounts from Bid , ( canton of Berne , ) stated tbat the necessary preparations were being made . A student named Monicke has been tried at Berlin on a charge of sedition , the overt act being the publication of a placard tbat appeared some weeks since , purporting to be a speech from the throne ; he wag tentenced to two years and a-half 'a imprison , nient in a fortress .
Berlin . July 1 . — The dispute with tte govern ment workmen , already alluded to , continues , and has to-day eiven rise to serious apprehensions . Yesterday 1 , 000 workmen were discharged . This morning they made a demonstration , proceeding in a body to the residence of M . Milde , the Minister of Trade and Public Works , to enforce their demands . On arriving at hia house , in the Behren-Sfrasse , they found he waa attending the sitting of the Chamber . They then went te the hall of tbe Assembly , but in the meantime the rappel hsd bf en beaten , and the approaches to the building were all closed by a large force of the Civic Guard . The arsenal was defended in tho same manner , and if any violence was intended it was for the time frustrated . No positive outbreak has occurred , but there is no safety from an outbreak at any moment .
Minutoli , the late President of the Police , has left for London to inquire minutely into tha working of the metropolitan constabulary , which is taken as the model of the force to be established here , but the arrangement of which is not yet quite com * pleted . Deplorable excesses haw again taken place in Rottenbourg . The city ia in flames in several places . ' The Deputies to the Democratical Congress at Perlin are rapidly arriving in that metropolis . RUMOURED DECLARATION OF WAR BT RUSSIA AGAINST THE
GERMAN CONFBDERATION . The Cologxb Gjzette ofthe 3 rd inst . contains the following information , the truth of whioh we are of course unable te guarantee : — An extraordinary express from Berlin hna just arrived and brings news cf the city being in terror , by the government suddenly announcing , on the morning of the Snd , that . Russia has declared war against the whole German Confederation , General Von- Schfreekeustein , the Miniiter of War , and all the Ministers , instantly as sembled to take measures required In the crisis . The
population of Berlin ar s all in the streets , enthusiastic , and as one . It is believed tbat all Germany will be equally united on this outburst of a European war . The foot of numerous Russians having been mercilessly killed in ihe bombardment of P > ague , and at Berlin , tbe indifferences ot tbe government to Russian remonstrances , and declaration of National Assembly at Frankfort , insisting to carry out the war against the Danes , are cited by , the Cstar as open acts of war against Russia , The vast Russian army is . croseing the frontier , and there is no present force to arrest its progress .
The German National Assembly of Frankfort has dissolved the Germanic Diet .
ITALY . Palma . Nuova ha ? , it is stated , capitulated to the Austrians ; the terms of capitulation are that tbe garrison shall not bear arms for three months , & c . CIVIL WAR IN SPAIN . Cabrera entered Spain on the 24 th June , at seven o ' clock is the morning , by Pla de Salinas , followed by his aides de camp , a numerous staff , and an escort of cavalry . He was met by Boquicia , with 1 , 000 soldiers . One of his attendants was Gonzales . The whole party appeared full of enthusiaam , and counted upon soon winning a victory for Charles VI . PORTUGAL . Stveral arrests have been made by the government authorities of some leaders of the Septembrist party , or supposed to be connected with them . Otheta of ( he more influential of that party are closely watched .
RUSSIA AND POLAND . The Voss Gassbttb has the following from Kccoigsberg , dated tbe 23 nd June : — Letters from Riga state that grave disturbance have taken place at St Petersburg , Tranquillity was restored , but not until several hundred lives had been lost . The Paris National has the following , from its correspondent at Berlin : — , Your faara of seeing Russia assume the initiative Hilh regard to tbe peasants have been realised , You have rami the future . Russian emissaries are everywhere moving about in tho duchy of Posen , as in Gallicla , holding out magnifictnt promise ! to the peasants . Aban .
dosed by their lords in the moment of danger , and be . iiering themselves to bo betrayed by France , tbey now plaoe all their hopes of safety in Russia . This is not rumour or probability ; it is absolute reality . The Em . peror promises to them all & liberal constitution , tho recognition of Polish nationality , and to re-establish Poland . It Is certain that tho Russians have already taken Thorn . Who would ever have believed in this fraternisation between Russia aud Peland 1 The people are thus led on to their rain . Russia will give some advantages to the nobles , but no alleviation to the sufferings ofthe people , Neither Prussia nor Austria can oppose any effectual resistance to Russia , Germany Is lost it sho does uot ally herself to France .
UNITED STATES . By the Hermann , arrived on Monday at Southampton , we have accounts from New York to the 20 th ult . A treaty had just been promulgated , concluded between the United States and the republic of New Grenada , the most important feature of which it a guarantee to the United States of the right of way across the Isthmus of Panama , the United States in return guaranteeing the neutrality of the Isthmus , and the rights of sovereignty and property possessed in it by New Grenada . The Washington had arrived at New York . The conviction of Mitchel had caused great excitement among Ilia Irish in America . A fire at Norfolk had destroyed property worth 250 , 000 dollars . SYMPATflT WITH JIITCHEI .. The royal mail steam-ship Acadia , Capt . Stone , has just arrived . n
., The news by the Acadia is not important . On the night of the 20 th a largo meeting took place atthe Tabernacle in new York , for the purpose ef expres . Bingsjmpathy with John Mitchel , tho news of whose sentence had been brought by tbe steamship America . The gathering appears to have been a la'ge one , and is described by the New York Express as having been ' conducted in a peaceable and very creditable manner , and on the whole in every point of view the most respectable assemblage of the kind tve have evpr seen in New York . ' Mr Greely , the editor of the Njew Yobk Tbibuse , was in the chair , numerous speeches were delivered , and appropriate resolutions carried unanimously . One of tho resolutions was to the effect that the meeting pledge themselves that until Mitchel be set at liberty they should refrain from buying or consuming any article of British manufacture . , We extract tho following from the New York

GOVERNMENT FJECTMBNTS . t The Crown , ' it appears , has also taken to the ejection of its tenantry . Friday , the 9 h ult ., two hundred a-nd eighty persona from the Crown Lands of Ballyruane within a few miles of this town , who resigned their holdings , were dispatched on cars to Galway , from ' whence they will obtain a passage to Canada at the r-xpense of government . Should they remain in the British dominions on their arrival , employment will be secured to them , and to such of them as choosy to seek their own fortunes in other portions of America , a certain sum of money each—we believe £ 2 each—will be given towards eoabiicg them to do m . —Bdllimloz Star .
The Rev . Mr Molcny , of Kilmurry , Ibrickane , writing to the Clare Journal states , tbat the bread distributed to the poor children of tbat pariah it indescribably bid ; but tbat the persons distributing it have sometimes made bad worse by keeping it back from the famishtd children . We have been informed , says the Limerick Examiner , by a Glounagruss correspondent , thaa a maa named Corbet dud in that locality from sheer want , leaviop a wife and six helpless children to deplore hia loss . In accordance with the Gregorj clause he waa denied out-door relief on account of a small plot of ground he held under Lord George Quin , an absentee , and bis only support was an ass that drew each , day a few pence worth of turf . Fever , tbe usml accompaniment of scauty food , overtook the ill-fated man , and bis spent frame sunk beneath its pressure . The deaths in the Cork workhouse for the last six months , averaged over twenty-four a

Extermination . —On Thursday week , ten families were exterminated , under the superintendence of dragoons , from the property of Mr Peter Conellan who resides at Coolmore , county Kilkenny , and is brother to Mr Carry Conellan , Private Secretary to the Castle . Wholesale Extermination—Loed Lvcav . —Two whole columns of the Galwat Vindicator are taken up with a list of the persons who , with their families , were evicted from the estate of the Earl of Lucan .
The district from which the people were thua thrown , extends to twelve townlands : — ' From this sad and woful catalogue , it will appear that one hundred and eighty-seven families , comprising nine hundred and thirteen human beings , have been oast houseless on the world ' s wide waste in and about this town , all in this parish , within tbo short period of eighteen months . Of this grand total , 170 individual * were able to emigrate to England or to America ; 205 ara dead , or left to shift about from place to place , to fix themselves as best tbey can ; and 473 are cast a * a bnrdsn , during their live ? , on the honest industry of the people ef this union . '
MORE evictioss . The Limerick Examiner of Tuesday says every post , every day , every hour , brings us accounts of evictions , ofthe havoc of families turned out in tho world , to beg „ or starve . In our last the letter published from our special correspondent , told us sad and truthful tales of the desolation of Clare , and tha all but consummated destruction of the ru'al population of the Kilrush Union . We can to-day speak from documentary evidence ofthe sad effects of tbe clearance system in tbe parishes of Killoscully , near Newp rfc . A family of the name of Humphreys , ia comfortable circumstances , able to pay tbeir . rents up to the day of their eviction , and willing to afford security for the ensuing year ' a rent , have been recently turned out by a landlo-d of the name of Philips , of Mount Rivers . This ^ Mr Philips is the friend of Mr Twiso , of Bird-hill , near the Stirabout Nursery .
We have been informed 100 families are shortly to be evicted from the property of tbe lion . Mr Abara ( Mich is the name given us- ) near UUa , and in tha Tipperary Union . Wearenotina position now to state positively whether the number will be so considerable , but we give the intelligence as it has been communicated to us .
ILLEGAL TRAINING AND DRILI . UO . ; Jolt . 3- —The Commission Couit sat at eleven o ' clock this morning , tho Chief Justices of tha Queen ' s Bench and Common Pleas presiding . After ihe disposal of a few unimportant cases , the foreman of the city grand jury came into court and stated that the jury had found a true bill against Thomas Devin Reilly on a charge of illegal training and drilling . The traverser ' s solicitor then applied to the Court for a copy of the indictment , and the application was at once acceded to .
At a later period of the day the traverser waa called to the bar and indicted by the clerk of tho Crown , Mr Alley , for bavins on the 21 st of May last at Bellview , in the city of Dublip , attended a meeting of nature dangerous to tbe peace and security of her Majesty ' s subjects and government ; also for having then and there practised military exercises , movements , and evolutions ; and , lastly , for having then , and there trained and drilled certain person" , unknown , then and there assembled , in military exercises , < to ., without lawful authority for so doing . The clerk of the Crown then called on the traverser to plead to the above indictment , when His solicitor requested of the Court , that Mr Reilly should not be called on to plead until the following day , on the ground that he had just then obtained a copy of the indictment . The Court granted the application . ,
The trial , it is thought , will take place tomorrow The traverser , who is one of the most prominent leaders of tho extreme war party , has latply gained some additional celebrity as one of the editors of tha Irish Fblon—the la ^ t firebrand thrown into Saturday ^ Dublin treason market ^ The _ offence with which Mr Reilly stands indicted is punishablft either by fine and imprisonment or seven years' transportation .
