At half-pis . nine o ' clock _tbi * _-Tinning , a man en _blonse , mounted un ia _excel-Isc i _if-e , arrived at a smart trot on tha Bmi evard de . ! _t'Jien 8 , _neiriy opposite the O . er .. _O-imiqae .

In _? _:-: Place La Fayette , close to the terminus of tb ! - N rthern Railroad , there occurred yesterday , «¦ - -iis day a 6 ncce _ sion of conflicts , or rather a _coiiva-id conflict ofthe _most murderous kind , e 2 ch f _^ rty evincing the m _^ t _un-b-inking _courage .
At--lis moment ( three o ' _cloctt ) there is , perhaps , 1 _ _SSSr- _' .-S ' . bin _dtuing _soaie hoars ; but I know not yet t ~ - "'hat cause ta ascribe tbe comparative _cessation .

Ai ten o ' clock an omnibus was seized , and , the horse ' - _be-n .- _t . _*' _- <« _-n away , was used in barricading the Porto St _D-sis ; two cabriolets and & water _career s _cait were next taken and employed in constructing a second barricade in the Boulevard _Banae _No .-. _re _' . ie , where a third barricade waa also former ; .
A . t tnis time , among the barricades on this boulevard , in front of the Rue _Mazaeran , a number of ch'ldren and worsen were observable , the latter exhibiting gr _? at pn'mation _; tbe men of the barricades entered tbe houses and demanded arma . They hr . ike open tbecou _! _-t-ya . d gates of two bouses in the Ruo de Cle .-y . and committed the same violence _wherever the inmates refused to Jet then . in . At halt past ei evn o ' clock firing was beard in the Boulevard St Martin , at which time only a few isolated de-achraeats ofthe National Gaards weretobeseen . At _H-ion the Na _' . ionil Guard detouched by tho Rue de Cl _^ _-ry , and a _britk firing began ; one man was killed while _olher persons , and among them a woman _, were wounded . Tho killed and wounded were carried £ F by the men of tbe barricades . M . Ro _^ er
( du Nord ) , ? ormerly deputy , rode ta the Boot by himself , d _.-e'sed in his uniform as Chef de Bataillon ef the Nation d Guard . Some of the persona assembled manifested an intention to disarm him and ta force _hi-a to q . it his horse , but he boldly resisted their attempts , arrest d _^ ne of tbe individuals , and directed t ie National Guard to join him . A man , who levelled his p eee at M , Roger , wa 3 . lain and fell dead n _* . his feet . At this moment the firing of _rnos-kft'y was heard at different points at once . _Tarert N _itioasi Gaards vrere killed at the barricade _Mazaeran and their bodies remaintd on tbe Boulevard _, bein _. st : ipped by the men efthe barricades . At th's moment _niiots were fired from No . 3 , and Ni > . 5 . of the Boulevard Banne Nouvelle ; No . C , _oeinff -be C . _iedu Commerce , and Na . 5 the Restaurant Thierry .
_Twenty minutes to Ons o ' clock . —At this moment _ourTep"r e' - wa- c impelled to quit the balcony of the _hoasa N _» . 10 . _B-ml _^ vard Bonne _NouYOlle , in Conseq uence of the _^ h its which were proceeding from all directions , and ' -hieh penetrated into the room , where several _persons were assembled . One of the _ism-ites w * s woanded in the band by the rebound of a _feullst _, _wM . h at first hit the ceiling and got flattened . It was wit before one o ' clock that the troops ofthe _lin- _^ arrived at St Deni 3 , and up to tbat period the onlv force _endued in the conflict was the National Guard . At one o ' clock a battalion of Light Infantry arrived r . i ; h General Cavaignao at its bead , and followed by a battalion of the Garde Mobile . The firin ? had _n- _» w ceased to a great extent ; only 80 _ ee isolated _dischargss bsing heard . About the game time the Artillery arrived .
All the shops are closed : the _senerale is _beat'Dg in theq-arterofihe Hotel de Ville ; the Placode Greve is oecupied by a detachment of the Republican Guard and by troops of the lino . A barricade is tor ued on the _Quai de la _Megisserie , at the top of tee Ro * " _Plancbe _ilibray , and another ib constructed in the Qiai aux _Fleurs , " at the corner of the Rub de h Citr . Quarter to Four o ' clock . — A brisk fusillade has _taki-n place at the Pont St Michel and at the Pont de 1 * Uotei DUn . The _arjillery hava made several disobafE _. 9 . The killed and wounded , it is said , are very numerous . _Fuua o ' clock . —Two barricades ars formed at the Pont Nenf , one at the angle of the Quai des Grands _Augu _. tins , and ths other at the angle ofthe Qttai _Conti . The tocsin of the church St Severin is heard mingling with a noise of tbe fusillades and the roar of the cannon .
Tweny minutes past Fouk o ' clock . — The barricade _, of the PontNeuf are abandoned ; they have been destroyed by tbe National Guard . The fusillade , as well as the sound of cannon ara _ai-ain h _^ ard . Two National Guards , passing afc this time across the Pont Neuf , are 6 et upon by about fifty people , by whom they are maltreated and _disarmod . _^ ' ihe approaches ofthe bridge , abandoned by the National Guard after carrying the barricades , are _nst guarded by any _trosps . It was not nntil five o'clock tnat both ends of tba Pout N _ u . were occupied by detachments ofthe 4 th Legion , and ofthe 11 h _Raiment , having pupils ot the Polytechnic School at tbeir head .
The fir < t barricade was constructed across the _Beulevard near tbe Porte St _Dsai ? , which , with the _houee-i situated atthe corners of tbe adjacent streets , formed a complete system of defence . Other barricades , to the number of nine , were _succeosively _ereoied n the Rue _S 5 t Denis and ia the other streets in the immediate vicinity . The third battalion of tbe 3 rd legion , whioh first reached this point , attacked the insurgents without _hsMtatinn , and took the barricade , but it waB unable to _gget | . o * 3 e 8 sion of th 3 houses , whence the insurgents kept up a destructive fire upon the National Guard .
_I'hfl hViag _cjntiaa . d on the Piace du _Pantheon especially in the Rue St Jacques , where there was -ound a strong barricade at the top ofthe Rue des Gie _* . A large number of insurgents had taken _refuse in the unfinished h & uses ia the Rue _Soufllat whence they wera dislodged with ball aud bayonet by tbe National Guard . On entering tbe Rue St Jaeque 3 the National Guards had orders to take aim at the windows aud fire upon _eveiy one who appeared . During this time the insurgents , who had abandoned tho Rue Sou-9 . it , proceeded toward * St Etienne du Mont

when they sounded the tocsin . The barrioado of the Rue St Jacques was taken bythe troops of the line , and by the Garde Mobile , whose courage cannot be too highly commended . The insurgents had raised barricades in the Rues des _Mathurino , St Jacques , and des _Poirecs . M . Arago sent artillery towards this point . The barricades were demolished by cannon , and a . mart fire was kept up b . tween the troops and the insurgents . A _obtain of the 7 th light regiment was killed on the barricade ; the company which he commanded has suffered much . Many cffi . ers of the National Guard and many privates of the National Guard havo been killed and wounded . The number of prisoners is considerable . They have all been conducted , under a strong escort , to the prison of the Luxembourg .
Another barricade hss been raised at the bottom of the Rue de la Harpe , at the corner of tho Rue St Severin . It is here that we have to lament the death of M . Masson , chief of the 4 th battalion , who bad mounted the barricade to _porsuade the insurgents to retire . Scarely had he ceased speaking than he fell struck by five balls , as as well as two soldiers of the line who were by his side . Afterwards , at six o ' clock , M . Arago proceeded to the strongest barricade—that of the Place Carobrai There wero several discharges of artillery ; but tbe barricade resisted vigorously . Being oncetak ? n , it was speedily reeovered . We have not heard whether any new effort has been made to regain it . M . Bixio , ono of the members of the National Assembly received a ball in the chest . Another representative , M . Domes , editor of the National , has heen wounded in the groin .
M . Pieire Bonaparte , son of Lucien , has had a hor . e wounded by a ball by the side of M . de Lamartine . The Rue de la Cite , _oeoupied since 10 o ' clock by the insurgents , was taken about 8 o'clock , after numerous discharges of artillery and well maintained fusillades from tho infantry . The firing commeBced immediately afterwards towards the end of lhe Rue St Jacques , but it was not eo much sustained . Several women ba _< e been arrested , and among them one wbo lived in furnished lodgings , and who admitted into her apartment eight insurgents , who fired out cf the windows " . The firing doe 3 not abate for an instant . The street is swept by grapeBhot . Skirmishes aro taking place in all the small streets adjoini ig .
( From the Assembles Nationale . ) On Friday evening at six o'elook a platoon firing , smartly kept up , waB heard in the direction of the Rue St Jacques . A very serious engagement took place in this direction boiween the insurgents and tbe troops . The Rue St Jacques is intersected from ona end to aaother by numerous barricades . Tho houses have been completely guarded by the insurgents and turned into actual fortifications . The troo-s are fired upon from every window . Cannon is required to take these positions . At _eleven o ' clock the number of persons killed or wounded wasestimated at 1 , 000 in tbe course of tbe day—a day more terrible and more saDguinary than any that Paris has seen for thirty years . No one can say that to-mocrow will not be still mere frightful . Midnight . —The insurgents are masters of tho Place de la Ba . ti . Ie and its approaches . A sharp firing is now kept up between them and the troops .
The firing continues in many quarters by the light of the conflagration . An engagement ha 3 taken plaee in the direotion of the Northern Railroad .
( From the Morning Chronicle . ) Al tbe attack upon the barricade St Martin , on the appearance ofa battalion of the National Guard , the insurgents , taking it for a icgiraent of the line , asd hoping to shake the fidelity of tho regular troops , raised a shout of 'Vive la Lienel' but on finding their mistake most of them fl _. d . There remained only _eeven men and two women , who fought deapo _* _rately . One of the men , who held a flag in his hand , was the first to firs upon the National Guards ; his companions followed his example , and the National Guards _roiuraed the fire . The maa who carried tbe _ Ug fell dead . One of tho females , a young woman neatly dressed , picked up the fhg , and leaping over the barricade rushed towards the National Guards ,
uttering language of provocation . Although the fire 'continued from the barricade , the National Guards , [ fearing to injure this female , humanely abstained for some time from returning it , and exhorted her to withdraw . Their exhortations , however , were va n , and at length self-preservation compelled them to tire , and as the woman was in front of tbe barricade a shot reached her , and she waa hilled . The other female then _alvanced , took the dag , and began to _thraw stones at the National Guard . The fire frora tbe barricade had b _. _como feeble , but several shots were fired from the _sid ? _s , and from the windows of house ? , and the National Guards , in returning the firo , killed
the second female . At last _onlj one man remained at the barricade , bathe kept up _acenstant discharge . One of tbe National Guards left the rank ? , sword in hand , and rushing to the barricade turned aside the musket of thia man just as he was about to fire again , and took him prisoner . The capture of the barricade did not put an end to the combat . A galling firo was poured upon tho National Guards from detached parties of the insurgents , and from tho windows of the houses of which they had taken foroible possession . The number of killed on this point is _esumated at about twenty on b . th sides . Tho number of wounded was also considerable .
A terrible combat took placa between tbree and four o ' clock in the Rue du Faubourg Poissoniere between tbe Rue Bellefond and the Rue Lafayette , where Strang barricades 2 . ad been raised . In this place the insurgents were very numerous , and had placed themselves under she uommand of a person dressed as an officer of the N-tional Guard . They were _otttcked by the 7 th _lej-ion of the Garde Mobile , and the 7 th Light Infantry , nnd a numerous party of _theNatiunalGuard . Thein ' _surtentshavingbeencalled upon , without eff _. cfc , to surrender , the engagement _OimmEiiced _andlaated twenty _minule-. To lhe _i-latoons of the infantry the rioters responded with a sharp fire , not onty from the barricades , but from the neighbouring streets . At longth the barricades were taken , but not nntil tbe . _roops bad sustained a severe loss . The commanding officer of th 3 National Guard ( M . Thayer ) was wounded , and a great many men and officers of the Garde Mobile and the regular army were killed .
Saturday , Mid-day . —It is impossible io give you anything like an adequate description of Paris today . From early dawn the work of destruction has been going on without one moment's interruption , but all communication with the disturbed quarters being cut off , tho most contradictory reports reach us of what 13 taking place . All we know is , that the tt . 0 _. 8 of the Faubourg St Maroeau , the _Quar-tierSt Jacques , is entirely in the hands of tbe insurgents , that the military have been attacking it all day , and that , to the present time , they have not succeeded ia their efforts to dislodge tbe defenders of the barricade *! . The roar of Cannon , which has been incessant since break of day , Btill continues with dreadful monotony . The loss of life must be enormous ; but for the present all we can say of ifc is , that in almost
every street you may seo tho relics of this frightful battle in the shape of dead and wounded being carried back to their homes . It is thought that the insurgents bave gained greatly in numbers during the night . They certainly have gained in the _utrength of their positions _^ and in the quantity of arms . They are largely supplied with fire-arms and ammunition , and they have got possession oi no _Icbs than eleven pieces of artillery , which they contrived to capture from the regular troops . They are barricaded te such an extent in the narrow streets between the Hotel Dieu and the Pantheon , tbat there is no means ef penetrating , for aa they have possession oi the _bouses as well as of the barricades , the troopa wbo Ventura to enter are at onco assailed with showers of missiles frem all sides .
PABIS IS A STATE OF 6 _IEGE—DIBSOMJ-IOK OF THE
EX-CUI-VF , aOVERNMENT . Half-past Twelve o'Clock . —It has just been announced that the National Assembly has declared Paris in a state of siege—that the Executive Government ba . bean _dfcnri-a-d , and that General Cavaignao has been declared Dictator , with all powers of every kind , oivil and military , and without interference on the part of any one . Two o'Clock . —General Cavaignac sent a flag of truce to the insurgents to inform thera that if they would yield before two _o'cleck , indemnity would bo given to all parties _concerned , but that after that hour he would shall the barricades , _raorian _. having bean sent for for that purpose . Tho firing . till goes on as before . M . _Amadee Thayer bis died of his wounds . He was tbe _aon-in-law of General Bertrand , the frienid of Napoleon .
It is said that the number of killed is upwards of five thousand . The 24 th Regiment alone has lost two hundred men . The 29 ih Regiment has Euff _ _red severely . Six o'Clock . —Tha firing haa ceased on every side but I fear the affair is not yet quite at an end ' Infactit is known that tim insurgents are still in possession of tho whole district about the Bastille The barricades in the Quartier St Jacques have been taken , after having been bombarded tor four hours Whether the _affiir is completely at an end , one thine is certain , tbat the troops and the National Guardhave got the ascendant so far that they must now be tbo conquerors . General Duvivier , who com _mands the troops guarding the Hotel de Vill * has received propositions for a capitulation from the insurgents in the neighbourhood of the Rue Mauner _*
ihey are anxious io uy down their arms , nnd wish tom & ko term ., but ths general insist , on their surrendering at discretion . General Demesne has sur rounded two cr three thousand of the _insureenu in the Church of St Severin , h „ ha 3 given th-m till fa » e o ' clock to-urrender at discretion , and has in formed thorn that if they did not give in bv lha ' time he would . exterminate . the whole of themf The firing m that district ( the Quartio .

Luxembourg have shot several of the prisoners whe fell into their bands . It is said that M . de Narbonne and one of his servants , who were taken witb arms in their hands , have been shot . One legion ef the Garde Mobile ( the 24 th ) refused to aot against the insurgents . This battalion has , _consequently , been disarmed by the other battalions , and several of the men have been tried by drum-head court-martial , and shot . The battalion was raised in tbe 12 th arrondissement , which is the principal scene of insurr . ction . Half-past Six . —I have just returned from the Assembly . The insurgents are still in force in the Jardin Turque and the whole of the _Faubourg St Antoine . A large body of artillery and howitzers have just been sent from the Hall of the Assembly to blow up their strongholds , but it is not likely that they will bo _complctoly put _dewn till late at night .
In tbe Quartier Sfc Jacques the insurgents are driren entirely frora their _barricadea . The church of the Pantheon was carried at one o ' clock by storm . The gnte 3 were blown up with artillery . A great many wero killed on both sides . The insurgents have taken refuse in tho distriet about theBarriere _d'ltalie ; but the ; have no barricades in that qi ' Xter . A dreadful act of _lutchery was committed on Saturday obout one o ' clock by the insurgents , at one of the barricade , in the Faubourg St Germain . They
had taken five ot tha Garde Mobile prisoners , and held them apart without injury . Hearing , however , ? hat the troops of the line were coming down in force , they determined to abandon the barricade , but at the _s-ime time they camo to another terrible determination , which they forthwith carried into execution—they out the throats of the five prisoners ! The lifeless bodies of the unfortunate lads , for none of them had exceeded the age of eighteen , were found still warm when _tjhe troops of tho line and a party of the Garde Mobile came up .
This act had the effect of exciting the most intense exwperation , and particularly amoni-sti the Garde Mobile . In tho report of tho proceedings oftho National Assembly , it was Btated thafc 1 , 500 of the insurgents had surrendered on tho Placo du Pantheon . These men were being led across the garden of the Luxembourg , when a large body of the Gardo Mobile , who were then guarding the palace and gardons , being unable to restrain their desire of vengeance for their murdered comrades , sent a volley into the _bidy thus passing , and killed upwards o 100 . Prisoners were _brought in from time to time on Saturday to the building in which the National Assembly sits . Amongst one batch ef twenty five waa a young girl dressed in male attire , who was most active in supplying _ammunition to the insurgents .
Sunday Mobbing . — As I told you yesterday , tbe insurrection of the left bank and in the Cite has been entirely put down , but not _without great loss of life en both aides . It appears that eo strongly were tbe insurgents posted , that the military , after repeated attacks 1 , found it impossible to dislodge them . They , therefore , had recourse to the stratagem of ap _« pearing to give way . They retired—the insurgents feil into tbe trap—they left their barricades , and pursued tbeir _opponents . On plain ground they had no chance , and great numbers were immediately slaughtered . This was the first success on the part of the military . Others followed . Tho Hotel Dieu
was seo a taken on the one side . Tho Pantheon was stormed on the other by M . Roulay ( de la Meurthe ) , a member ofthe Assembly , at the head of his regiment of National Guards . The insurgents were driven from point to point till they lost the whole of tbeir strong points , and were at last forced to take refuge in the large district in the neighbourhood of the Barreire d'ltalie , which ia known to most strangers who have visited Paris aB tho district where the manufactory of Gobelins tapestry , and tho great hospital of tbe Salpetriere are situated . On the left bank of the Seine , therefore , the insurrection may be considered as having been completely put down .
As for the state of tho insurgents on the right bank itis very different , for they still remain fer midable . In the early part of yesterday they wero drawn from a strong position which they had in the Rue du Faubourg Temple , to barricades built in the neighbourhood of the Hospital of St Louis , which nearly cut off the communications _between the _Clos St Laz . ro and tho Faubourg St Antoine . Scon afterwards their _polition was weakoned by the loss of a formidable barricade in the Rue Rochechouard , but still their position in the Clos St
La-_\ re was very formidable . On the othor hand , a _Btroog body coming from the Quartiers de * Halles threatened the Hotel de Ville , which , as I toldyou _, was at one time in great danger . It was not till near _tfe-ce o ' clock that the insurgents were driven _bask . All day troops wero gathering towards the terrible Clos StL-zire . which still h _. ld out . I see by tho account from the Chamber , that at a late hour last night it was not yet taken , but if the following account , which _appsars in a paper of this morning , ba true , it fell last night . The pap _. r in _quostion
says : — 'The affair ofthe Clos St Lazire was the gravest of this horrible day . Several times reinforcements were demanded , but still the troops cnuld mt make themselves masters of the position . The insurgents , entrenched in the hospital , defended themselves with the utmost bravery . By four o ' olock this _evening one of the battalions of the Garde Mobile had al * ready lost 200 men- We just loam ( five o ' clock ) that ihe barricades of the Faubourg St Antoine begin to give way . The first was carried by _Genoral Cavaignac in person . Colonel Michel , of the artillery of the . National Guard , has been dangerously
wounded by a ball in the breast . At six o ' clock the firs continued in the CI 03 St Lmre , and was recommencing in the Faubourg du Temple and Sfc Antoine . At seven o ' clock , tbe National Guards of Amiens an _^ some artillery , with General _Lamoriciere and M . Ducoux , a representative , at their head , joined their companions in the attack of the Clos St _Lazare . The news has just been _breught to U 8 that tho Clos St _Lszire haa bsen taken after several most disastrous attacks . One battalion of the Garde Mobile , the 1 t \ has been almost entirely destroyed . Of the SOO men of wbich it was composed there are , it ia Baid , only nine or t 9 n who are not killed or wounded .
Sum » . \ y Mornixo , Ten o'Clock . —Such is the information given of the state of Paris up to midnight , but I understand there is one important error . The Clos Saint Lazire has not been taken . _| The whole of tho attacks upon it yesterday evening have failed , and the insurgents maintain themselves in ifc as strong as ever . The cannon cannot ba brou ? ht to bear upon it , from its being upon a height . General Cavaigcso has consequently been obliged to send to Vincenne 3 _lar larger cannon and shells , with which an attempt is to bo made to batter down tbo place from tbe heights of Montmartre , which command it . The whole day will probably be consumed in the operation . It is said that upwards of 40 . 000 troops and National Guards havo entered Paris in the _COUree Of list night and this morning .
On tbe left bank of the Seine I hear that somo fresh barricades have been rebuilt during the night , and that tbe work haB to be recommenced in that quarter ; but the accounts which reach me are contradictory , and I _ownot ascertain the extent of this fresh outbreak of the force of the insurgents .
( trorathe Daily News of Saturday . ) On tho dictatorship being conferred on General Cavaignao ho issued the following notice .- —If at noon the barricades are "hot removed , mortars and howitzers will be brought , and by whioh sheila will bo thrown whioh will explode behind the barricade * , and in the apartments of tho houses occupied by the insurgents . Judging by the _conatanfi firing during the afternoon . this terrible threat appears to have be _? n executed . The formation of all groups and assemblages on every part of the Boulevards during the day , where the circulation was left free , has been prevented by constant movementa of cavalry . At half-past two o ' clock the cannonade and the fusillade continued in tho _Faubourc S . Marceau , the Quartier St Jacques , and the Faubourg St Antoine . Shells were muoh used .
A report , dated three o ' clock , S 3 _ys that the slaughter was then immonBe . An order is reported to have been issued to give no quarter . At half-past three the conflict became bo general and so Woody and the _streetB were so obstructed , that we found it impossible to obtain any _preoise information . It is _nr-t an insurrection . It is a oivil war . At half-past three , the insurgents were driven to the Pantheon and there surrounded ; they _fought desperately and with a courage which would bo admirable if devoted too junt cause . Fivk p . m . —I have just learned that the Pantheon has beau recovered from the Insurgents , after three hundred discharges of oannon . Sund ay Mobnino . —The following are somo further details of the fighting of yesterday : —
The fighting ne & x the Northern Railway was most desperate . The head quarters oftho insurgents are supposed to have been the Churohof St _Sevarin , situate in the quartier St Jacques , near the river The fortress and citadel was the Fnubourg St An . toine , occupies , and barricaded throughout , extend _, ing on one side from the Temple , taking in the Fau . _bouri * St Martin and the Placa Lafayette , close to the Northern Railway and the Clos St Lazare . On the other side tho insurrection was in the _quartiers St Marcel , St Viotor , and tho lower part of the quartier St Jacques . Paris was thus lapped in a large semicircle by a lino of fortifications . Masters of tbe St
church of , _Seyevin , oftho bridge St Michel , and of the avenues to tbe bridge of Notre Dime , thoy camo to tbe Hotel do _Villo , and they established themselves in tho Church of St _Gervais . If the insurgents could have come down from the Templo _sido { . beiiou-l do Ville would havo been placed b . tween two lire ? . Tho Clos St Lazire waB fortified so as to be rendered almost impregnable . It was protected by immense _bamoades , and tho insurgents ware intrenched m an hospital , now Greeting . Thia prat was connected with advanced works extendiBK to the heights of the Faubourgs St _DeuiB _, St Martin , L . _Uapelle , U YUlette , tbo Tempb , the

quartier called Popiuc . urt , and the Faubourg Sfc Antoine . There was great slaug hter here , iho National Guards from _Poissy and Pontoise drew up before the barricade of tbis Clos St _Lazira _. andat the first fire fifty of them fell . - _ i . _«¦ -.. The Pantheon the insurgents defended with 'our pieces of cannon . They had also seized the collego Henry IV . behind it , and this church was the key of tho position extending through the Quartier St Jacques * _-o the church of St Sevonn . According to tho Si cle , there are 1500 National Guards lying dead in thechuroh of St Severin , wno fell in the slaughter at this spot . .,. _ . „ The Church St Gervais , immedia-ely behind the Hotel de Ville , had to be taken from the insurgents with cannon . The bridge of Notre Dame had to be swept by cannon , as well as the Quai . au * * ! _£ ur . . _hnnnn nf hnoir . e _. a six stories hieb . caller . La Belle
Jardiniere , ' on this quay , was demolished by cannon balls . It bad been taken possession of by the insurgents , The Cite was cleared at tho time that the Pantheon was taken . ( From the Morning Herald ) In the Cite the insurgents entered the houses , and thus rendered thomselveg almost impregnable , on aocount ofthe narrowness of the Btre . t . * . They also barricaded themselves in the large clothing establishment ofthe Belle Jardiniere , from which thoy could only _, be dislodged by bringing cannon to bear on the house and knocking it down . This was done , and a body of about forty made prisoners . On their retiring from this spot they got possession of the hospital of the Hotel Dieu , on which cannon was alao brought to bear , by which the armed force gained _piaaetsioa of it and tho adjoining houses . of twi
On the Place Maubert , after & _oombat hours , the insurgents were driven eut , and the ; took refuge at the top of the Rue St Victor , near thi wine depot . The troopa followed them up closely , am kept up a well directed fire on them . In the Faubourg St Marceau the fighting was ver _; severe , the insurgents defended all their barricade , with great _obatinacy . At this point the hw of th . people was suoh that the women threw boiling oi and water from the windows on the troops . At the Pantheon the cembst was very desperate Fifteen hundred of the insurgents h & d barricade themselves within the building , and in order to dis lodge them it was necessary to plant cannon ant break in the doom . This attack lasted at least foi nn hour and a half , but when a breach was made thi _National Guards and the Line entered amidst Bhower of balls , and made the insurgents lay dowr their arms .
FRIGHTFUL BATTLE IN ST ANTOINE . TAKING OP IHE C-03 SI LA-ARE . ( From tbe Daily News . ) Sdhdav , 11 a . m . —At five o'clock thi- morning the ' generate' again sounded in all quarters . Regiments of the line , infantry and cavalry , continued to arrive from the departments . At six several legions of National Guard from the provinces marohed into Paris . The quarter of the capital around tbe Chamber and the Tuileries is literally covered with troops who bivouack in the streets and places . The Place do la Concorde and Champa Elys . _es present the aspect of a camp . The insurgents have now collected in those quarters of the Faubourgs whioh are beyond the canal St Martin , and ia the upper part of the Faubourg Poissoniere . Every houee in La _Villotteand La Chapel _' e is converted into a fort , and every window is a loophole . . .. .
All appeals to the insur . ents to spare tho lives of their families by a surrender having failed , it is decided to-day to resort to extreme means of _suppreBsion . A hundred and twenty pieces of cannon , including a large portion of heavy ordnanoe , are prepared for this day ' _ work , besides mortars , _howilzars , and grenades . It is intended to attack houso by house , to batter them with cahnon , and to throw shells on the roofs and grenades atthe windows . Tho engineers arc now reported to ba employed in mining the houses where the insurgents have taken refuge , the _stairoases of whioh have been destroyed . Nothing can be worse than the present aspect of things . Several thousand prisoners have beon taken among the insurgents ; amy of them were immediately Bhot . Tbe vaults of Notre Dame , the Louvre , the Tuileries , and ths Assembly , are filled with them-. To-day will bB the crisis ; the result oan hardly be doubted—it will either bs submission or
extermination . All circulation through the streets is interdicted . Vehicles are seen passing everywhere , to carry away tbe dead . On the Plaoe de la Concorde , which is covered with cavalry and artillery , the men are generally dismounted , and lying on the asphalt ? , taking thei . _breakfasts . Waggons are _aeen bringing provender for tho horses , which are tied round the fountains and round the obelisk , and to the lampposts . The Champs Elysees are oonverted into a vast camp ; artillery is planted Jn tbe quays , and guns are pointed from the vestibule of the Chamber . Members of the Assembly , distinguished by their trico ! oured scarfs , are seen in groups of tea or twelve , patrolling the streets ,, I learn from some of these , that whenever they pass between tbe Cbambsr and the Hotel de Villa , they never fail to b . fired upon by insurgents from tbe windows in the latter quarter .
Although , as I have stated , the number of regular troops in Paris , evea with the accession of the arrivals to-day . will not excc _. d 30 , 000 , the number of National Guards is incalculable ; they have never ceased arriving since dawn this morning from the departments . The Place de la Madeleine and the Rue Royale are now covered with troops . The journals of Paris have not been able te appear today , except in single leaves , and even these in limited numbers . The _church of St _Sulpica is said to be in the power of the insurgents , whe have a piece of cannon there . An irruption from the operatives of Lyons and other manufacturing towns is feared . Sunday , 5 p . m . —All politicalc _. _rda aro interdicted . This morning fighting took place at the Jardin des Plantes .
The delay allowed the insurgents in the Faubourg St Antoine to surrender having expired without any reply , the operations immediately commenced , Tne first barricade was vigorously attacked and carried , but cot without considerable slaughter on the side of tho assail ints . Colonel Raynaud , of the -8 : h Regiment of the line , and several other officers were killed . General Boquet , ofthe Engineers , arrived at the Place de la Bastille at twelve , with tbe firemen and a battalion of sappers . Some houses were in an instant blown up , and several barricades thus turned were captured without loss . On some points the insurgents had dug trenches , _ajainsfc which the artillery wa . unavailable . The / fired from within , nnd , on the approaoh of the troops , escaped through
passages opened in the cellars of the houses . A large body sillied from the suburb towards noon , entered the island of St Louis , and formed a barricade on tho Pont des Tournellos , whioh wan undergoing repairs . They were there kept in check by troops stationed in the wine otorcs on the opposite side , and wereaotualiy placed between two fires . The enclosure ot St Lazwe wa 3 _re-ocoupiel in the morning by the insurgents , who carried away ten small pieces of artillery belonging to the Chateau Rouge , which thoy loaded with stone and pieces of broken bottles . On the Quay do la _Megisserie aome _rnffiians fired from a window on a _battallion of troops of the line , and escaped by a back door into the street . Others were ,
at the same time , erecting a barricade cloBe by , in the Rue de Bethizy but a patrol of National Guards dispersed thera , and they fled , throwing their arms in the streets . A battery of artillery had been placed on the hill of _tVIoafcusartre , and measures were adopted to prevent the _insurgents from gaining possession of that important position . By latest accounts whioh have reached me the Clos Sfc Lazare haa fallen into the possession of the troopa . This place , the stronghold ot th . insurgents , resisted all tha efforts of Genoral Lamorioiere on Saturday for many hours . Its occupation by the enemy _effeotual - y kept the troops oat of the Faubourg St Antoine . It was carried by storm about an hour ago .
The old Municipal Guards have been called to Paris . A great number of them were assembled round the Assembly , anxious to join in the fight . Forty-four prisoners hare boon put to death on the Place de Greve , It was impossible to form an idea of the losses on both sides , but , in the opinion of many , Paris had not witnessed such a scene of slaughter since the massacre of St Bartholomew . Monday MorninR . —At six o ' olock p . m . yesterday after the taking efthe Barrier Rooheouart , the body of the chief ofthe insurgents , who defended it , was brought into the Maine of the second arrondissement , It was a man named L & ncnuMdttor « the _Pkus DrcnsBNB , president of the club of the Mountain . He was killed by a ball ia the heart . General Renault is said to be severely wounded . The death ef General Negrier is announced
. About eight o ' clock yesterday evening , M . Char bonnel , a representative , wa . carried along thi Boulevard , accompanied by two representatives am sev . ral friends . By his paleness it appeared that hi had been mortally wounded , but on examination th surgeons declared it to be serious , but still then were hopes of hia recovery . The women play a great part in tho insurreotior many have been arrested on whom have b __ en _founi cartouches , which they carried to the insurgents one had hid them in her basket covered with meat which sho carried on her head , another had sew them inside her _clothw . Another carried ta . m . v he ? milk cans .

Wo are told that the house at tho corner of th 9 Rue de Greve , on which was written in _iarye letters * _Remplacement militaire , ' has been destroyed by cannon , as well as another in the Rue de . _i Ormes . The insurgents who were barricaded there , aad who had directed a most murderous fire upon th . troops , were all taken prisoners . Several generals were killed and others wounded _. Among tho killed was General Negrier , _quegtor of the Assembly .
National Guards continue to arrive hourl y from the departments . The numb _. r of prisoners taken ia
immense . All the shops were closed , business entirely _saa pended , and litters bearing the _grounded were _incea _santly passing through the streets .

Many thousands of the insift-gents were quartered inside . Various attempts had been made to carry it by storm , but in vain . On Sunday , General Cavaignac determined to tako ifc , and ordered it to be mined , ad vancinij guns and shells againstit . At half-past four o ' clock a letter from M .

LAST GLORIOUS STRUGGLES OF THE PATRIOTS .
( From ihe Daily News of Wednesday . ) Pabis , _Momdav , 3 r m —I have just now made * promenade , aa far as the sentinel , would permit . Even a pass is now refused . The hospitals in all parts of the town are completely filled with the wounded . Straw is placed on the _aisUs of the churches , which are also filled with the wounded . I have just been in some of therawhere the odour proceeding from the unhappy snf . ferers is terrible . The wounded continue to pass on litters and in vans every five minutes . Wounded horses are also led back from the fight . I learn that the bombardm & nt of the Faubourg ia now going on . ' Red hot balls are thrown among the insurgents , and into the houses in which they are shut up . '
Great losses were sustained on the banks of the Seine , because it was necessary to contest foot by foot tbe _ciath arrondissement . The insurgents had occupied nearly all the houses ; the streets temg barricaded , and communications opened between the courts allowed the insurgents to go from plaee to place undercover within the triangle we have described . The windows , stepped up with planks aad mattresses , hnd become ' _meurtriers , ' and it waa necessary to take the hous-S one after the other before arriving at the barracks of the Celestins , which were only carried after a severe oombat .
The Faubourg St Antoine ha 3 been surrounded since the morning , and battered by cannon . A part of the troops descended to ths Pont d ' Austerlita , which they carried , and then , remounting under the orders of General Negrier , to the Place do la Bastille , by the Boulevard Bourbon , they placed themselves between the barricades of tbe Rue St Antoine and the Faubourg St _An-oine . The Rue St Antoma was Boon cleared , but the brave General Negrier there met his death , which took place under the following circumstances : —General Negrier , after a bloody combat , marched for the Quai des Ormes , at the head of a detachment ofthe 21 th of the line and the artillery of the National Guards , to go by the
qaays to the Pont Marie and the barracks of the _CelestiRS , which were still occupied by the insurgents ; tho general , accompanied by aome officers of ordnance , took _successively . a great number of barricades , and after a lively resistance he retook the barracks , and drove the insurgents from the Greniers _d'Abondance , where they were established . Unfortunately while the general was in tho act of sending a _command-tnt of the National Guards to cause some reinforcements to advance to relieve the upper part of the Rue St Antoine from the insurgents , he was struck by a ball , at the entrance of tbe Rue St Antoine , opposite the large barricade which defended the _entranca of tho Faubourg . M . _Charbonnel , a representative , was _eeriously wounded by his side .
( From the Times . ) In the vicinity of tbe house , on the Boulevard du Templo , from which _Fieschi fired on Louis PhiUppei tbe insurgents fought with the most determined courage _throughou-jtho day . Not content with djefending the position , in the Rue de Crussol and thd Rue MenH Montard , they determined on a sortie \ and debouching from those streets spread _themselves along the Boulevard to the Theatre de la Gaite , _fighting hand to hand with the troops , while the main body , sweeping by the Jardin Tore , drove the
National Guards , and troops past the Cadran Bleu , and into the Rue Chariot . Their success was 0 . onjy brief duration . They were driven back at the point of the bayonet , and although they continued to resist for hours afterwards , were ultimately obliged to retreat . The barricade of the barrier _Rocheounrt , which was defended for so many hours , and which cost so many valuable lives , was commanded by M . La Roche ( or La _Roque ) , the editor of the journal the Fbrb Dochesnk . Ho was summoned by a Garde Mobile to surrender , and having refused , the Garde shot bim in the head .
It is said that the 7 th legion of the National Garde Mobile lost 800 men at tbe attack on the Clos Saint _L-Z'ra . A private of the _4 ih legion of the same corps , describing the attack on a barricade , in the Rue Saint Jacques , said that he left there threefourths of the legion . He added that he escaped solely by throwing himself on bis faee , and he waa immediately covered by tho men who fell under the fire of the insurgents . ' Tho dead bodies , ' said he , * were tossed about as _pavioura throw paving stones . ' ( From the Daily Netvs . )
Quarter-past Five , p . m . —Since sending the last despatch , I am informed that , after having surrendered tbis raornin ? , _theinsurgentsretracted , and were bombarded and attacked with shells and other ways for several hours . They have , however , finally been subdued . This you may consider as certain , but our communication , aro so intercepted that I find it impossible to obtain other details with any degree of certainty .
_HORRIBL _* - MA 3 SACH _* - Ot PRI 30 NKKS . Six o'Clock , —I have just heard that six of _tnfl firisonera who were confined in the vaults of tbe _Tuicries , having put their heads out of the gratings , were immediately brought out and shot . Five hundred insurgents who were captured at the Clos St Lax . re were shot last night , and four hundred more this morning . The struggle has been incredible , and the military executions _almost unparalleled . The following letter , read to the Assembly on Monday afternoon , announced tho termination of tho conflict -.
