      THE a > MElH 0 K « B 9 _. ' Messrs RothschuM and some other large houses hove teaed a circular , calling in for payment all ol _* K _«»»™ , whether como to maturity or not . This has given rhe to the _repwt I mentioned in my former letter , that they were about to wind up and close . Four b « _ua stopped on Monday . Among them three , those of Bandon , Etience , and Fourchon , _earried on considerable business . ABOLITION OT _BUTEST . The _Mositeob says : — ' Soma doubts have been expressed as to the _ptriod at which thc decree of the prorisioHal _government , relative to the immediate abolition of slavery , will cense the general liberation of the blacks . Tha committee charged to prepare the act of emancipaiion occupies itself actively with ita labours .

      THE LABOUR QUESTION . The _MoSiTEOE has published n report of the first two sittings cf the government _commiteion for regulating the affairs of the _worhmen . Tbere were present , besides the p csident , vice-president , and secretary , MM . Tidal , Joan Reynaud , Victor Considerant , Dupont-White , _Pav-jrier _, Dapoty , Pecquer , Malarmefc , editor ofthe _Jocbnal de la _Featerkite , a journeyman , nnd H . Pascal , editor i-c : 'ie Atblieb _, also ajonrceymaa . At the firs - sitting a . Loais Blanc explained the motives of tbe government , before there waa any discussion , for limiting the hours of work . Beyond tea hours he Eaid , was oppressive . To afford repose to the workman _^ _as to _rega in for tbe work the strength lost in perform _, ing it . Tn « people demanded thi * reform with an

      imperious voice ; and the masters , after conferring , ae-Ceded ta t ! : e proj-ctof ths commission . At the second Bitting M . _Ljuib Blanc brought forward a question of high interest . He proposed to establish , in the four most _popnloas quarters of Paris , four buildings , each capable of accomodating aoout four handred families of working men , with a separate apartment for each , that thera might be derived a vast economy in lodging , _firiag , _lighting , _& c , and also ia food by the purchase in large _qasu _' -ities . Their economy wonld _, he represented , be equivflie-. t to an _augraentatlen of wages to the workpeop le withnut any additional charge upon the masters . In this esta _blishment there would be an asylum for the

      infants during the absence of their mothers , a echeol , yards for air and exercise , gardens , baths , & c . The Srst expense _vmuld be raised by mortgages upon the _establishments _the-aselves . These establishments would , said II . _Lsuis Blanc , be accessible only to working men lawfully married , those who have the moRt numerous _fimilies being preferred . The utility and interest Of _EU-il a creation was unanimously _ecfcnowiedfred by the _commission , tnougb some doubts were raised as to the concurrence of ths workmen for whose benefit it was _conceived . Mil . Louis Blanc and Charles Duveyrier , _however , soon set these doubts aside . In tho end M . Louis Blamj undertook to submit to tho govern _, rsent , for its sanction , the resolutions which were come

      Paris , Thursday Noon . The _Provisional Government have suspended cash payments a * - the Bank . A great demonstrati'm is to be made by the National Guard . Thirty thousand _middle-class members of that bodv have declared against the recent manifesto of Ledru " R _illin . They are to march to the Ho el de Villa to deliver their solemn protest .

      LATEST FROM PARIS . _IUMESSE ASSEMBLAGE OF THE PEOPLE . DEMONSTRATION OF THE NATIONAL GUARD . Paris , Thursday , 5 p . m . A _demonstration was made , unsuccessfully , to-day , fay the NaSijual Guard of Paris , to protest againBt the decision of the Minister of the Interior , who had ordered tha _luston of of the picked companies with Die general companies of _chassQurs , Ledru-Rollin having endeavoured , bv his manifesto , to prevent the _middle-jiass re-action , and the old National Guard trying tonpset the democracy . Paris , Friday , 11 ah , TB 1 TJMPH OF THE PEOPLE .

      This morning , at half-past six , the inhabitants of the entire line of tbe Boulevards were aroused by the noise and movement attending an unusual assemblage of persons . It soon became evident that all the operatives of the capital had met by common agreement at various points cf rendezvous , and soon commenced marching in regular ranks like disciplined soldiers ( but quite unarmed ) along the Boulevards , irom the _Bastile towards the _Champ 3 E'ysees . We have witnessed this procession pa 3 = in 5 under our windows in uninterrupted succession for several hours . At a rough calculation ! should say lhat not less than a hundred thousand men have b _< en thu 3 marshalled forth . They are all of the work ins class . Their costume is invariably the blouse . They are officered by individuals _distirgoisbed by a blue scarf tied on the left arm , and edged with rod fringe . The middle class party in the government have yielded .

      To The Trades Of London. Fellow Countrym...

      TO THE TRADES OF LONDON . Fellow Countrymen-, The even's that have _recently transpired and that are now transpiring in Paris , do , we think , afford ample _proof of what may be done by the United Trades of this metropolis , to effect such an _alterationjinthe political constitution of our country as will enable all who labour to reap its frnits , without these deductions and exactions which have contributed so much to the aggrandisement of others and the Impoverishment of ourselves . The _Frer-eh artizans have demanded the protection of law for their labour and the Provisional Government have , without hesitation , acceded to it , and have thereby set the first example of a government regarding the _sacrednes 3 and inviolability of labour .

      The French _artizms and labourers have been , by a decree of the provisional government , _invested with the elective franchise , and ha 7 e thus been elevated to th " : dignity of freemen . These are the fir .-t frnits ef the new republic . How enviable the condition of the French operatives when contrasted with our shameful and degrading helotage . Every F . ench _artizan who has attained fhe _age of fcwenty-Sve years , is eligible to the _* pfnce of legislator ! —How _shinief _al is our lot when contrasted with that ofthe French proletarian . These rig ' : is are the reward of French valour , and it only requires union and determination on our part to secure equal advantages . The time has now arrived trie .., if we would not shame our manhood , we must ra .= _k-3 our _cjuniry the abiding place of freedom .

      The obj-ct of this address is to invite you to cooperate . with those patriots who have detemifced to demand frem the House of _Commons the right of suffrage , a-: contained in the People ' s Charter . It is their in : e - < : outo present the great National Petition on the 10 . a of nest month , and we wish to join themin the demonstration which _tfcey intend making npon that occasion . It is no psrt or intention of tbe promoters of this meeting to _clath with the arrangements ot the Trades , Delegate meeting , at the Bell , Old Bailey _, hut as some portion of the trades meeting there may

      aot be prepared to go to the same extent as we doand we have no wish to _compromise any one against their _will—nevertheless , we are determined to give an _opportunity to every member of the trades to take hi 3 proper position upon the important occasion on the _prescnt-ition of the above-named petition . We hereby _eali a meeting oi the trades , to bs held on _Senday eve _.-insr , March 26 : h . at the Bell , Old Bailey , at seven o ' clock precisely . Signed on behalf of the committee . Thc 3 .

      The Coming Struggle. The Beginning Of Th...

      THE COMING STRUGGLE . THE BEGINNING OF THE END : Such shall be the present movement , if the people will it . France is a Republic—Sicily , Naples , Rome , Tuscany , Sardinia , Lombardy , Switzerland , Prussia , Bavaria , Austsia , Belgium , every state of Germany , have felt the _miigia touch of Liberty—some have achieved , others are achieving their rights—and the " pioneer of Liberty "—England—is demurely bringing up the rear-guard , instead ofleading in the van . With the most despicable ministry , the most contemptible faction that ever held the destinies of a great nation in abeyance , as their opponents , the British people are , indeed , stirring—but they have needed an

      impulse from abroad to fire their flagging energy —to nerve them to the endeavour Not that the public mind was not prepared—not that the working classes of England are not to the full as enlightened , politically and socially , as their cotemporaries throughout the world ; but p ractical as they are , where the benefit of their masters is concerned , they have hitherto shown little of that practical spirit where their own interests were involved . In action—in prompt , decisive energy—their continental brethren have far exceeded them ; but the seed is sown , the mind is prepared in England—let us hope the harvest will reward the labour , and the fruit realise the . expectation .

      The popular mind throughout the country does , at last , seem equal to the crisis—the entire working classes , and no contemptible portion ofthe shopkeeping classes , have become aware of the gulf of ruin on the brink of wbich they stand—the shopkeeper is trying to keep his house over his head—the working man is trying to keep life and soul together—Lord John Russell and the Whigs are trying to prevent them—and hence they are rallying to the cry of * ' Away with Russelll" " Down with the system !"

      The extraordinary precautions of the Government show their terror—the steady calmness of the people proves their resolve . The first effervescence of " rioting , " in whicii the Chartists had nothing to do , has passed away , — -not so the discontent which engendered ; it . It was' but as the discordant tuning up * of the orchestra before the grand overture of liberty begins . The thieves that law-created hunger makes—the crimes that lordly tyranny engenders—mingled their harsh notes with that first defiance of unwilling idleness against idle wilfulness—but the chaff has been winnowed from

      the corn—and , nobly have the Chartists of South Lancashire and Cheshire vindicated Democracy from violence and license , in the following passage of tlieir address ;—

      C 1 T 1 ZBNS , The day of your emancipation is drawing nigh . Labour ' s jubilee is being proclaimed _ovr the world . In April , 1848 , your rights of _citizenship will again be demanded from thc H _<< use of Commons : prepare _yourselves with becoming dignity , with energy , but above all , with firmness , for the coming event . Mako tho National Petition what it ought to be , and abovo all , let every step you take be marked with the dignity of manhood . __ Liberty is too sacred to be associated with unmeaning violence or cringing cowardice .

      Based on such noble princi p les , agitation increases—the river is gathering strength as it rolls—and Lord John Russell is placed in the dilpmma of trying to stay the movement—or watching powerless as it gathers and swell around and above him . If he does the firsthe hastens the crisis , the mine of popular indignation will burst under his feet and hurl him fram power into appropriate insignificance . If he takes the latter course—the better for him—while Democracy . triumphs the same . As to any successful attempt at quelling the popular movement , and preventing the Charter—even Lord John , conceited as he is , cannot , for a moment , harbour the idea —his moral power is a farce—his physical power a nonentity .

      He is trying , indeed , in his silly little way , what he can do to prevent open-air meetings , as these are what he is most afraid of—but he sets to work very cautiously—sounding the great p opular ocean with his proclamation plummet and police-line . First he very grandl y tries to put down a meeting in Trafalgar-square , having a musty , half-absolute law on his side . The people , however , continue to meet . His second move is , to forbid processions through the streets at unseasonable hours .

      The Coming Struggle. The Beginning Of Th...

      John is preparing for a retreat Already is the rumour spread that he is Sick . If you grow frightened , he will grow well . If you act as b efits men , he will be to taken so ill that he will be forced to Resign . Meanwhile the people are determined to act constitutionall y—within the letter ofthe law ; but that law the-Whigs shall not _transgregs by a hair _s-breadth ! If the Government choose to put themselves in the wrong , be it the people ' s duty . to set them rig ht . To achieve this they must observe order , and true democratic discipline . They must act as ONE body , for ONE object , with ONE plan . Tbey must not waste their time and energy in desul-„ _, _„___ ., _ . ..

      tory meetings , called by anybody , for no particular purpose . THE CONVENTION meets on the 3 rd of April : the interval they must employ in organising their masses—signng the Petition-electing their Delegates in public meetings , and these should all be mighty gatherings—the more so , as the law allows of but forty-nine Delegates assembling . When the Convention has met , there will beplenty of work to do . Then , we trust , a well digested plan of action , FITTED FOR ANY EMERGENCY , will be propounded—and it will rest with the people , under the guidance of their own elected Senate , to march from victory to victory , until they have trodden class domination in the dust .

      If the men of London , especially , desire , as it is advisable they should , to come together in their tens of thousands , the election of the three Metropolitan Delegates affords the opportunity—these elections cannot be too publicthe constituencies cannot be too numerous on this occasion . We are happy again to chronicle in our columns a ; series of great demonstrations—may theygreaten every week—every day ! Once more we cry— " No rest ! No pause 1 until we have achieved our rights .

      FRANCE HAS A REPUBLIC , ENGLAND MUST HAVE THE CHARTER ! . _r _+ _SS _+ _SS * _SSff _** ' _^ _Rf _&—*¦ ' *¦ ¦ " *¦ _¦ _" ¦ " ¦ _" _- _'' *"

      THE ORGANISATION OF LABOUR IN FRANCE . The newspapers of this country , with few exceptions , are indulging in systematic and continuous misrepresentation of the principles and proceedings of the Provisional Government of the French Republic , with reference to the rights of Labour . Their treatment of the workingclasses is so totally opposed to that which is _sanctioned by the political economy of the capitalists and profitmongers , that it is necessary to set up a howl against it , to cry it down by " sheer dint of abuse and falsehood , lest the proletarians , on this side the Channel , should get it into their heads that they have similar rights , and deserve to be similarly treated .

      In many cases , the writers of these articles are learnedly ignorant of the just principles of society . They have been unfortunate enough to have been taught the fallacies of a school of political economists , by which systems were invented lor the express purpose ot making black appear white , and of maintaining a state of society _whkh is grossly subversive of justice and equity , and inverts the natural relations of men to each other . There are , no doubt , however , among them many who wilfully and

      maliciousl y misrepresent the movement in favour of industry in France . Even in their own writings , we see evidence that they know what they are writing against—but slaves to a moneyocracy , which the establishment of just principles would destroy , they are compelled to malign and calumniate a movement , so dangerous to usurers and idlers , as that which aims at reducing to practice the two leading rules of Christian economy , " He that will not work , neither shall he eat ; " "The labourer shall

      first be partaker of the fruits . " It is in this aspect , principally , that we regard the new Revolution with s the deepest and most absorbing interest , If it is merely to end in substituting a President , a Senate , and a Congress , for a King , a Chamber of Peers , and a Chamber of Deputies , without radically improving the condition of the labourer , it will have effected but little for the promotion of substantial freedom and liberty , or the emancipation of Industry from thatslavery which necessarily results from its present helpless dependence upon Capital .

      If , however , we understand the objects of the leaders and the people of France upon this occasion , they do not mean that their Revolution shall stop with mere political changes . They are impressed with the feeling , so often expressed b y Mr O'Connor , and reiterated in the Northern Star , that political institutions are merely to be regarded as the means to an end , that end being the happiness , prosperity , and independence of all classes , but especiall y of that class whose labour produces the wealth ofthe country .

      The impression that this is the case appears already to have given rise to a kind of covert warfare against the Provisional Government , by the capitalists and profit-mongers . We are informed that the wealthy classes in Paris , and Indeed generally , are reducing- their establishments , and dismissing their servants . The employers are discharging their workmen , with the view of bringing the Government into disrepute , and of exciting , if possible , a servile war , rather than see the views of Louis Blanc and others carried out . There can be no

      doubt but that the position of the Provisional Government is , at this moment , one of extreme difficulty and peril . They have to secure , in the forthcoming National Assembly , a fair and honest representation of the great mass of the community—the Labouring Class . This they are bravely and vigorously attempting to do , for which they are most heartil y abused by the press of the usurers everywhere , and it appears that they will have to contend against a well-organised opposition on the part of the middle classes , who are acting in concert , for the purpose , if possible , of neutralising the ascendancy of the friends of Labour .

      The manner in which M . Lamartine and his colleagues have hitherto conducted the affairs of France , under the difficult and extraordinary emergencies which have arisen , does them infinite honour . They have had , in addition to all the usual incidents of a great political revolution , to contend with the crowning evil of an empty Exchequer . Louis Philippe and his Ministers left France bankrupt , and the hirelings of the press in England do not hesitate to u rite as though his successors were responsible for the evils thence arising .

      Under these circumstances , tbe future p olicy of the rulers of France becomes a question fraught with immeasurable interest and consequences , not only to the people of France , but to the working classes of every country in Europe . It is evident that in the present Provisional Government there are men who are strongly imbued with Fourierist and Communist ideas , and the probabilit y is , that they will attempt , in some shape or other , to reduce these ideas to practice . The danger is that , led away by enthusiasm , and miscalculating their real strength , they may attempt too much and so fail altogether ; this would be a grievous mistake and one deeply to be deplored . If they take a prudent and practi

      cal course , we believe that no country in Eu-1 rope presents so fair a ground for trying their views of the Associative and _^ _Co-operatiye School of Philosophy as France _^ Its former Revolutions have swept away almost every relic of moriarchial and territorial feudalism . It has no laws of Primogeniture and Entailno hereditary aristocracy to battle against . No private potentate whose sway extends over half a province , the ownershi p of land is widely diffused—and we believe that the writings of Louis Blanc , George Sand , Eugene Sue , Considerant , and others have created a strong public opinion in favour of associative doctrines . So far , then , the course is clear , but in order to proceed surely and to exhibit that

      . i _... i . _i _„ u : „ MM _„*;„ i f « ti , « « , « . general support which is essential to the success of such a great social experiment , it will be requisite that it should be made with great caution . It would , we think , be most unwise to interfere with the existing classification of society in France . But one step , which would probably lead all others in its train , is obvious and free from all possible objection . The Government may take all those for whom the present system does not find work and wages , and set them to work upon reproductive and self-supporting principles and plans . It is a mere question of Poor Laws in the first

      instance , and it is only necessary to ask whether the English system of spending some seven millions or eight millions annually , in forcibly keeping our poor idle in misnamed workhouses , or spending that or such sum as might be required in setting them to work , is the most rational and likely to be most beneficial to all classes in the long run . If the colonies thus formed were placed under proper superintendence and control , and the labourers properly organiser ] , we hare little doubt but they would be completely successful , and convert the unemployed artisans and labourers of France

      into a source of strength to the Republic , who , if not thus provided for , will be a constant source of danger and disorder . Another measure , which , in our opinion , would strengthen the Republic against all assaults from witho t , and render its frontier invulnerable , would be the establishment of a system of military colonisation as suggested some years ago by Marshal Bugeaud . The existence of a Republic in the heart of Europe will be looked upon with jealousy , not to say enmity , by the monarchies surrounding it , At any moment , pretexts for going to war with it may be discovered or invented , and it will , therefore , for a long time to come , be necessary for France to

      be fully prepared to meet any such hostile demonstrations . But the maintenance of a large standing army , simply as soldiers , is not only objectionable in an economical sense , but also extremely dangerous to the existence of a Republic itself . It is desirable , therefore , on both grounds , that while the army of France should not lose its military efficiency it should have an industrial character superadded . According to Marshal Bugeaud ' s estimates , it would appear that his system of military colonisation would , in ordinary circumstances , render the army self-supporting . Its organisation and discipline {¦ dmirabl y fit it for making the experiment .

      To form these industrial and military selfsupporting establishments , of course money must be had in the first place . The great preliminary step , therefore , of all others , which the Government of France must tahe , is to adopt a just and rational monetary system . Let them release themselves from all dependence upon gold , except for foreign exchanges , and create a taxation money sufficient for all internal exchanges . So long as they rely on Rothschild and the gold lenders for financial support ; so long as the labour , land , skill , and capital of France can only be combined and put into action by gold and silver ; so long will it be

      fettered in its movements , and its industrial system rest upon an insecure foundation . If they adopt such a monetary system , they will at once emancipate themselves from all their financial difficulties , and create the means of providing ample and remunerating employment to all who cannot otherwise find it , and in the course of time , if the associative and co-operative establishments ofthe Government worked well , voluntary associations of a similar character would follow , and thus a complete change in the structure of society take place , without injury to the persons or property of any class whatever .

      We shall watch with the deepest interest and anxiety the course of the representatives and Government of the French people upon these vital and all important questions , to which we have alluded in these cursory remarks .

      Parliamentary Review. A Majority Of 225 ...

      PARLIAMENTARY REVIEW . A majority of 225 has given the Whigs a renewal ofthe Income Tax for three years more , without any abatement of its monstrous iniquities . This was not to he wondered at—the majorit y voted to save their own pockets . A just and graduated Property-Tax would have taken more from them , and less from the people who depend on their health and ability only for an income . The decision was a purely numerical one—the arguments and the justice were all on the side of the minority ; and however pleasant it may be to Lord John to see himself backed in tbis way , he must be blind and deaf also if he fails to perceive tbat his policy is alienating even his own friends from him , and

      must at no distant date terminate in his expulsion from power . At present , in fact , he is merely Minister on sufferance—there is nobod y else prepared to take his place . The speech o ' f Monday night , in which he pretended to repl y to the arguments used b y the opponents of the Budget , was the most meagre , illogical , and selfcontradictory ever delivered in the House . It answered nothing—prove *! nothing—but his own incapacity for the situation he holds . We have already , at some length , exposed the errors and injustice ofthe financial scheme for 1848 , and netld not now say more , except to repeat our hope thatthe Estimates will be cut down in Committee by unsparing hands .

      The Annual Debate On Mr Ewart's Motion F...

      The annual debate on Mr Ewart ' s motion for the Abolition of Capital Punishments was somewhat dull . It is difficult to impart novelty or variety to a question which has been so thoroughly discussed as this has been of late years . One thing was elicited , however , that the public mind is advancing towards the point aimed at by Mr Ewart , and those who think with him . The disinclination to the infliction of Death Punishments grows stronger and spreads . There is , however , a not unnatural dislike to their abolition in the case of

      murder—resting partly on instinct , and partly on education . It seems opposed to the natural sense of justice that he who has wilfully taken away human life , should be spared alive . The abstract arguments by which this feeling has been met , do not remove it . Above all , no Secondary Punishment , as a substitute of a satisfactory character , has yet been proposed . An exposition of the corrupt character of the present House of Commons took place on Wednesday , with reference to the Harwich

      Election . Mr Wakley drew the proper moral from the facts , when he said that the only cure for such an infamous and disgraceful event was a thorough alteration of the electoral system . Until the People ' s Charter puts the whole adult population in possession of political rights—gives them the free and uncontrolled power of exercising these rights , there will always be found rich mea ready , for their own purposes , to bribe _, and poor men , impelled by their necessities or cupidity , to accept the price of their own infamy .

      A Discussion On The Irish Poor Law, With...

      A discussion on the Irish Poor Law , with the view of extending relief to persons holding more than a quarter of an acre of land , in connexion with a previous one on a motion of Col . Dennis , to inquire into the operation of the Poor Law generally in Ireland , serves to exemplify the spirit in which an English Legislature lookg at Irish questions . It is no wonder that the Irish people should wish to manage tbeir own affairs . We please nobody , and ap . pear to injure all parties , by our ignorant and blundering policy . If we are not mistaken _, however , there is a day of _reckoning amiroanh .

      ing for all our past misdeeds to Ireland—the thunder cloud is growing black above it Ere long an explosion will take place , which might have been averted by timely and wise concessions to the feelings and interests of our iellow subjects . Ihe Times and Chronicle , which sneered at and ridiculed the leaders of the trench people before the revolution , are engaged m doing the same to the men whorepresent the indignant and oppressed rationality of Ireland . Does the fact portend and precede a like conclusion ? « .
