The sections are obviou-lv amons the insurgents . Little has been said lately about Louis Napoieon . _ Another raore significant and more sinister fea ' nreis perceptible in this insurrection , —namely , the appearance f . f the red flag oa the barricades of the Faubourg St Antoine .

    Tha public mind in the western portion of Pans is a little ^ assured by th 3 snco ? s 3 of all the attacks of tlissrcied fores upon the barricades ; bat there 13 at bottom a deep sense of apprehension for the coming airtt . Very hard fightins has tsk ^ n place in tha Faubourg St Marc-: au and the Faubourg Ss Jacques . A c ? nvoy of twearv wa ?? ons ef ammanitioa is just pissing along the Bc-ukvirds towards t ' ae seat © f astion .

    To give you a notion of the audacity of the ingsrgente . IsfaaUhara mention oa « facttnat occurred , Ia 3 ysay , uad 3 rmyeyes . At halt-pwfc nine o ' clock this morning , a man ea b ! ou 3 e , mounted on an exo ; llent horse , arrived * c a smart trot on the Boulevard iss Italisns , nairly opposite the Opera Coraiqua . Hathe-a e . n « mntered a body of tha NiiioDal Guards sf the 2 a \ Legion , who desired him to soap . They ^ proasa ^ d to seize the rains of his horae , when , racing h ' n bloase , he produced s br&oa of pistels , and Sred upon them right and left . 23 then put spare to h ' i 3 horse , and wenfc

    Half-fast Four o'clock . —M . LamirtiDe , on horsibrtck , followed by M . Duclerc , and a numerous stnff , returned to tho National Aesembly at half-fast three o ' clock on Friday afternoon . He was accompanied by a considerable raultitu . de of operative ? , wha cried , 'The Democratic and social Republic for ever . ' At nine o ' clock , a regiment of Cuirassiers and the National Guard of Bnn ' ogne entered Paris together by tha Bsrrier de l'Etoile . A portion of the rails of the Northern Railroad , between Paris and St Denis , were removed by the people on Friday to prevent the arrival of troops 'rt = m Pontoise and Amiens .

    I learn at this moment that the fighting Js very severe at hat part of the Boulevard du Temple oppo ? ite the Jnrdin Turc . and theme to the Bastille . The Faubourg So Antoine is said to be still in the hands of tho ioturcent ? , but the impreision begins to become general that the party of 'Order , ' the Natintial Gmrd ? , and the troops , will , ere to-morrow , have guppressed the insurrection . Sis o'Clock . —Casnon have been sent against the b 3 iri ade iu the Placa Lafayette . A howifzer , with a party of artillery , have gone in the directipn of the R « uen Railway .

Ia order t « present to oar readers a more connected narrative of events we i ? ive the following from the Journal des Dfb * T 3 of Satarday : —

    ' On Friday morning the President of tha Assembly direced the rappel for the National Guard 3 to bebeaten in all the arrondis 9 ement 3 . The whole of the Executive Committee assembled at the Presidency of the Assembly , and in concert with M . Sezaard , the President , there confided the command in chief of all military force to Gsneral Cavaignse , Minister of War , with authority from that moment to adopt every measure he nv ' ght deem necessary to oppose the insurrectionary movement which was in course of preparation . General Cavaignao consented to accept these powers , but he insisted upon not being

    thwarted in re 3 t » ect to the orders he mL ; ht issue , and upnn being at liberty to isjue them without control , taking the whole responsibility of bis acts on niraself . ' Tha movement commenced at the Place de la Bastile . where the first assemblage of wqrkmpn was formed about n ne o ' clock in tha morning . From thence the crowd , consisting already of from 600 to 700 persons , proceeded along : the Boulevards to the PortesSt Martin and St Denis , eying 'Djwn with the National Assembly , ' ' Down with Lamartipe , ' 'Diwn with Ledm-Rollin , ' 'Down with JUarie , ' 'Lon ; live the Republic , democratic and social .

    At ten o ' clock tae barricades be ^ au former ! at the Porte * St Martin and Si Denis . About 2 , 000 parsons debouched by the faubourgs witb . tho banners of the ateiiera mtvwiaux , haviag at their heid leaders recognisable by blue caps with gold lace , and among them were epu wearing thB uniform of the RepnWicin Guard , Oa reaching the Porte StDeni ? , fc ' ni 3 b » dy commenced Dulling up the pavpment and tear ing d-itrn the iron railings along tho escent leading to the Raade Cierr , and destroyed the drum or a drummer who was beating tbe rappel ; and who only e « ca ' "d himself by taking refuge in tha Rastaurant de 1 'ffiiWa Bcouf ' oH the Boulevard Bonne Nouvelle . At ten o ' clock an ominous was Bejz : d , and , the horses beini taken away , was used in barricading tho Porte St Djfcis ; tiro cabriolets and a water carrier ' s cart were next taken and eniDloyed in constructing a second barricada in tbe Boulevard Bonne Nosvelle , where a third barricade was also formed .

    At this time , among the barricades on this boulevard , in frout of the Rue Mangraa , a number of ch-liren and wotnen were observable , the latur exhibiting great animation ; tbe men of the barricades entered the houses and demanded trms . They broke open the court-yard' gates of two houses in the Rue de Clery , and committed the game violence wherever tha inmates refused to let them in . At halt-past eleven o ' clock firing was heard in the Boulevard St Martin , at which time only a few isolated de ' . achraents of the National Guards were to be seen . A : noon the National Guard detouched by the Rue de Clary , and a brifk firing began ; one man w ? , s kiiied , while ether persons , and among them a womaa , were wounded . The killed and wounded were carried < ff bv the men of the barricades , M . Rozer

    ( du Nord ) , formerly deputy , rede to the spot by himself , dra ? s 5 d in his uniform a ? Chef de Balsillon ef the National Guard . Some of the pereoDs assembled manifested an intention to disarm him and to force him to quit hia horse , but he boldly resisted their at ' tempts , arrested one of the individuals , and direoted t je National Guard to join him . A man , who levelled his piece at M . Roger , was Blain and feil dead at his feet . At this moment the firing sf musketry was heard at different points at onoa . Threa N itional Guards were killed at the barricade Mazagran and their bodies remained on tbe Boulevard , beins ; stripped by the men of the barricades . At th's moment shots were fired from No . 3 , and N' \ 5 , of the Bonlevari Bonne Njuvelle ; No . 3 , being the Caie du Csmmerce , and No . 5 the Restaurant Thierry .

    Twenty minutes to One o ' clock . —At this moment ourr <; p . - > rer was compelled to qait the balcony of the house N ) . 10 , Boulevard Bonne Nouvelle , in consequence of the shots which were proceeding from all directions , and which penetrated into the room , where several persons were assembled . One of the jamatea was wounded in the hand by the rebound of a ballet , which at first hit the ceiling and got flattened . It was not before one ©' clock that the troops of the line arrived at St Denis , and up to that period the onlv forca engaged in tha conflict was the Na * tional Guard . At one o ' clock a battalion of Light Infantry arrived with General Cavaignac at its head , and followed by a battalion of the Garde Mobile . The firing had naw ceased to a great extent ; only g ome isolated discharges baing heard . About the same time the Artillery arrived .

    All the shops are clo 38 d ; tha eenerale is beating in tbeqiarterofthe Hotel de Villa ; the Place de Greve is occupied by a detachment of the Republican Guard and by troops of tha line . A barricade is formed on th 9 Quai de la Msgisssrie , at the top of tbe Rue Planche Mibray , and another is c ? astructed in the Q / iai auz Fleurs , at the corner of the Rue de la Cite . Quarter to Four o ' clock , — A brisk fusillade has tak ^ n place at the Pont St Michel and at tbe Post del'HotelDieo . The artillery have made several discharges . The killed and wounded , it is said , are very numerous . F <;? jr o ' clock . —Two barricades are formed at the Pont Neuf , one at the angle of the Qaai des Grands Augustins , and th 9 other at the angle of the Qnai Coati . The tocsin of the church St Severin ia heard mingling with a noise of tha fusiiladea and the roar of the cannon .

    Twenty minutes past Form o ' clock . — The barricades of the Pont Neuf are abandoned ; they hare been destroyed by the National Guard , The fusillade , as well as the Eound of cannon ara again hr ard . Two National Guards , passing at this time across the Pont Neuf , ara set upon bV about fifty p ; op ! e , bj whom they are maltreated and digarmed . Xhe approaches of the bridge , abandoned by the National Gaari after carrying the barricades are nat guarded by any troeps . It was not until ' fire ©' clock tbat both ends of the Pont Neuf were occupied by detaohraeats of the 4 th Legion , and of tho lLh Regiment , having pupils of the Polytechnic bchool at their head .

    The fii-it barricade was constructed across the Baalevard near the Porte St Dania , which with the hunger situated at the corners of tbe adjacent streets formed a complete system of defence . Other barri ' cades , to the number of nine , were successively erected iB the Rue St Denis and in the other streets in the immediate vicinity .

    when they sonnded the tocsin . The barricade of the Rue St Jacques was taken by the troops of tho line , and by the Garde Mobile , whose courage cannot be too highly commended . # The insurgents had raised barricades in the Ruea dea Matburin ? , St Jacques , and des Polrees M . Arago sent artillery towards this point . The barricades wtre demolished by cannon , and a smart fire was kept up between the troops and the inBurKentf . A captain of thb 7 ih light regiment was killed on the barricade ; the company which he commanded ha ^ suffered much . Many t m '« ers of the National Guard and many privates of the National Guard have been killed and wounded . The number of prisoners is c . msiderabli . They have all been conducted , under a st ' . one escort , to the prison of the Lus-mboorg .

    Another barricade h » s been raised at the bottom of the Rue de la Harpe , at the corner of thw Rue St Siverin . It is here that we have to lament tha death of M . Masaon , chief of the 4 ih battalion , who had mounted the barricade to persuade the insurgents to retire . Scarely had be ceased upesking than ho fell struck by five balls , as as well as two soldiers of the line who were by hia side , Afterward 5 " , at six o ' clock , M .

The Rue de la Cite , occupied since 10 o ' clock hy the insurgents , was taken ab . iut 8 o ' clock , niter numerous discharges of artillery and well maintained fnsil ! ade 8 from tha infantry . Tho firing oomme ^ ed immediately afterwards towards She end of the Rue St Jacques , but it waa not &o much sustained . Several women ha ^ e beea arrested , and among them ono who lived in furnished lodgings , and wbo admitted into her apartment eight insurgenis , who fired out cf the ffindons . The firing does not abato for an instant . The street ia swept by grapeshot . Sk'rmishes are taking place in all the small strerts adjoini ig .

    ( From tho Asscmb ' tc Nationdle . ) On Friday evening at six o ' clook a platoon firing , smartly kept up , was beard in the direction of tbe Rue St Jacques . A very serious engagement took place in tais direction between the insurgents and the trosps . The Rue St Jacques is intersected from one end to asother by numerous barricades . The houses have been completely guarded by the insurgents and turned into actual fortifteations . The troow are fired upon from every wicdaw . Cannon is required to take these positions . At eleven o ' clock the number of persons killed or wounded waaestiraated at 1 , 000 ia the course or the day—a day more terrible and mere sanguinary than any that Paris has seen for thirty years . No one can say that to-morrow will not be still mere frightful .

    Midnight . —Tbe insurgents are masters of tho Place de la Bastille and its approaches . A sharp firing is mw kept up between them and the troops . The firing continues in many quarters by the light of the eonfligration . An engagement has taken place in the direction off the Northern Railroad .

    ( From the Homing Chronicle . ) At tha attack upon the bawicade St Martin , on the appearance of a battalion cf the National Guard , tho insurgents , takiug it for a legiment ot' the line , asd hoping to shake the fidelity of the regular tronps , raised a shout of 'Vive la Ligne ! ' but on finding their mistake most of them fled . There remained only seven men and two women , who fought deaperat . Iy . Oao of the men , who held a flag in his hand , was the first to fire upon the National Guards ; hh companions followed his example , and the National Guarc ' a re . uraed the fire . The mai who carried the fljg fell dead , One of the ferua ' eB , a young woman neatly dressed , picked op the fUg , and leaping over the barricade rashed towards the National Guards ,

    uttering language of provocation . Although tbe Bee continued from , tua barricade , the National Guards , ilearing to injure tnis female , humanely abstained for tome time from returning it , ind exhorted her to withdraw . Their exhortations , however , were a n , aid at length self-preservation compelled them to tire , and aa the womaa waain front of the barricade ashOi . reached her , and she was killed . Tho other female then advanced , took the flag , and began to tfcr ; w stones at the National Guard . The fire frora the birricade had become feeble , but aeveral shots were fired from the Biu > 8 , and from the windows of houses , and the National Gua ? d 3 , in returning the fire , killed

    tha second female . At last onlj one mem remained at the barricade , bathe kept up a constant discharge . One of t ' le National Guards left the ranks , sword in hand , and rushing to the barricade tamed aside the musket of this man just as he was about to fire again , and took him prisoner . The capture of the barricade did sot put an end to the combat . A galling fire was poured upon the National Guards fr . im detached parties of the insurgents , and from the windows of the bouBes of which they had taken forcible possession . The number of killed on this point is e 3 timatei at about twenty on both sides . The number of wounded was a ' so considerable .

    A terrible combat took place between three and four o ' clock in the Rue du Faubourg Poisaoniere between the Rue Bellofond and the Ruo Lafayette , where streng barricades had been raised . In this p lace the insurgents were very numerous , and bad placed themselves under tho nammand of a person dressed as an officer of the Nstioual Guard . They were attacked by the 7 th legion of the Garde Mobile , and the 7 th Light Infantry , and a numerous party of theNationalGuard . Thein ' surgentshaving beencallcd upon , without effect , to surrender , the engagement o immenced and lasted twenty minutes . To the platoons of the infantry the rioters responded with a sharp fire , not onty from the barricades , but from tke neighbouring streets . At length the barricades were taken , but not until the troops had sustained % severe loss . The commanding officer of th < National Guard ( M . Thayer ) was woucded , acd a great many rm n and officers of the Garde Mobile and the regular arm ; were killed .

    Saturday , Mid-day . —It is impossible to 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 , the most contradictory reports reach us of what is taking place . All we know is , that the wkole of the Faubourg StMaio ^ au , the QuajtiepSt Jacques , is entirely in the hands of the insurgents , that the military have been attacking it all day , and that , to the present time , they have not succeeded in their efforts to dislodge the defenders of tbe barricade ? . The roar of cannon , which has been incessant since break of day , still continues with dreadful monotony . The loea of life must be enormous ; but for the present all we can say of it is , that in almost

    every street you may see the relics of this frightful battle in the shape of dead and wounded being carried back to their homes . It is thought that the insurgents have gained greatly in numbers during the night . They certainly have gained in the strength of their positions and in the quantity of arms . They are largely supplied with fire-arms and ammunition , and they have got possession of no less than eleven pieces of artillery , which they contrived to capture from the regular troops . They are barricaded to such an extent in the narrow streets between the Hotel Dieu and the Pantheon , that there is no means ef penetrating , for es they have possession ol the h 9 uses aa well as of the barricades , tbe treopa who venture to enter are at once assailed with showers of missiles fr < m all sides .

One legion ef the Garde Mobile ( the 24 th ) refused to act against the insurgents . This battalion has , cansequpntly , been disarmed by the other battalion * , and several of the mm have been tried by drum-head court-martial , and shot .

    _ .. _ . ... In the Quartier St Jacques the insurgents are driven entirely from their barricades . Tbe church of the Pantheon was carried at one o ' clock by s ' . erm . The pates were blown op with artillery . A great many were killed on both sides . The insurgents have taken refuge in the district about the Barriere d'ltalie ; but the ; have no barricades in that qji rfcer . A dreadful act of rutchery was csmmitted en Satun ay abiut one o ' clock by tbe insurgents , at one of the barricades in the Faubounj St Germsin . They

    had tiiken five of the Garde Mobile prisoners , aDd held them apart without injury . Ilearing , however , that the troops of the line were coming down in force , they determined to abandon the barricade , but at the s'ime time they came to another terrible determ i nation , whioh they forthwith carried into execution—they cut the throats of the five prisoners ! The lifeless bodies of the unfortunate lads , for none of them had exceeded tho ace of eighteen , wore found still warm when t&etroopa of the line and a party of the Garde Mobile came up .

    This act had the effect of exciting the most intense exasperation , and particularly amongst the Garde Mobile . In the report of tbe proceedings of tho National Aasemlily , it was stated that 1 , 500 of the insurgen t s had surrendered on the Place du Pantheon , These rnen were being led across the garden of Hi © Luxembourg , when a large body of theGardo Mobile , who were then guarding the palace and gardens , being unable to restrain their desire of vengeance for their murdered comrades , sent a volley into the bidy thus passing , and killed upwarda of 100 . Prisoners were brought in from time to time on Satarday to fhe building in which the National Assembly aitP . Amongst one batch of twenty-five was a young girl dressed in male attire , who was most active in supplying ammunition to the insurgents .

    Sundat Morning . —As I told you yesterday , the insnrreotion of the left bank and in the Cite has been entirely put down , but not nithsnt great loss of life en both tides . It appears that po strongly were the insurgents posted , that the military , after repeated attack " , it-und it impossible to dislodge them . They , therefore , had recourse to the Btratagera of appearing to ( , 'ive w » y . They retired—the insurgents felllnto the trap—they left their barricades , and pursued their opponents . On plain ground they had oo chance , and great numbers were immediately slaughtered . Tins wbb tbe first success on the part of the military . 0 * hers followed . The Hotel Dieu

    was Boon taken on the one side . The Pantheon was stormed on ( he other hy M . Boulay ( de la Meurthe ) , a member of the Assembly , at the head of his regiment of Natioaal Guards . The insurgents were driven from point to point till they loat the whole of their strong points , and were at last forced to take refuge in tho large district in the neighbourhood of he Barreire d'lbalie , which . is known to most stranger * who have visited Paris as the district ; where the manufactory of Gobelins tapestry , and the great hospital of the Salpetriere are situated . On the left bank of the Seine , therefore , the inanrrection may be considered as having been completely put down .

    As for tho state of the insurgents on the right bank it is very different , for they still remain formidable . In the early part of yesterday they were drawn from a strong positiaa which they had in the Huedu Faubourg Temple , U barricades built in 'be neighbouiheod o ? the Hospital of St Louis , which nearly cut off tbe communications feetween the CIob St L ^ zwe and the Faubourg Si An ^ oine . Scon afiemsrds their position was weakeaed by the loss of a formidable barricade in the Rue Rocbechouard , but still their positioa in the' Clos St

    La-2 * re was very formidable . Oa the other hand , a strong b > dy coming from the Q , « iartier 8 de ? IMIes threatened tbe Hotel do Ville , wtriou , as I told you , was at one time in fjreat danger . It was not till near tb ^ ee o clock that the insurgents were driven back . Ail day troopa were gathering towarda tbe terrible Cio 3 SfcL-ztre , whioh still held out . I see by the account from the C&araber , that at a late hour last night it wa 3 not yet taken , but if the following Account , which appears in a paper of this morning , bi true , it fall last night . The paper in question

    says : — ' TheaffuiroftheClos StL ^ zwe waa the gravest of this horrible day . Several times reinforcements wero demanded , but etlll the troops could nat . make themselves masters of the position . The insurgents , entrenched in the hospital , defended themselrss with the utmost bravery . By four o ' clock this evening one of the battalions of the Garde Mobile had already lost 200 men . We just learn ( five o ' clock ) that tha barricades of the Faubourg St Antoine begin to give way . The first was oarried by Ganerat Cavaignac in person . Colonel Miohel , of the artillery of the National Guard , has been dangerously

    wounded by a ball in the breast . At six o ' olock the fire ccn-. 'nued in tbe Cloa St Lszare , and was recommencing in the Faubourg du Temple and St Autoine . At seven o ' clock , the National Guards of Amiens ani some artillery , with General Lamoriciere and M , Ducoux , a representative , at their head , joined their companions in the attack of the Cloa St Lame , The news has just been brought to us that the CI 03 St Lizire has been taken after several most disastrous attacks . One battalion of the Garde Mobile , the 7 fi , hss been almost entirely destroyed . Of the 800 men ot which it was composed there are , it h said , only nine or tan who are not killed or wounded .

    Sur-DAY Morhiko , Ten o Clook . —Such is the information given of tho state of Paris up to . midniijht , but I understand thete is one important error . The Clos Saint Lszire has not been taken . jThe whole of the attack ] upon it yesterday evening have failed , and the insurgents maintain themselves in it as Btrocg a * ever . The oannon cannot be brought to bear upon it , from its being upon a height . General Cavaignao has consequently been obliged to send to Vincennes far larger cannon and shells , with whioh nn attempt is to be made to batter down the place from the heights of Montmartre , which oommand it . The whole day will probably be oonsumed in the operation . It is said thtt upwards of 40 . 000 troops and National Guards have entered Paris in the course of luat night and this morning .

    On the left bank of tha Seine I hear that some fresh barricades have been rebuilt during the night , and that the work has to be recommenced in that quarter ; but the accounts which reach me are contradictory , and I cienofc ascertain the ext « nt of this fresh outbreak of the force of the insurgents . ( Frosu the Daily News of Saturday . ) On the dictatorship being oonferred on General Caviignao he issued the following notice : —If at noon the barricades are not removed , mortars and howitzers will be brought , and by which BhelU will be thrown which will explode behind tha barricade * , and in the apartments of the houses occupied by the insurgents ^

    Judging by the constant firing daring the afternoon , this terrible threat appears to have be « m 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 movements of cavalry . At half-past two o ' clock the cannonade and the fustllade oontinued in the Faubourg S . Marceau , the Quartior St Jacques , and tlie FaubDurg Sfc Antoine . Shells were muoh used . A report , dated tb , ree o clock , says that the slaughter was then immense . An order is reported to have been issued to give no quarter . At half-past three the conflict became so general and bo bloody and the streets were bo obstructed , that we found it impossible to obtain any preoise information . It is nr > t an insurrection . It ia a oivil war .

    At half-past three , the insurgents were drivea to the Pantheon and there surrounded ; they fought desperately and with a oaursge which would be admirable if devoted to a just cause . Fivk p . m . —I have just learned that the Pantheon has bees recovered from the insurgents , after three hundred discharges of osnnon . Sunday Morning . —The following are some further details of the fighting of yesterday : — The fighting near the Northern Railway was most desperate . The headquarters of the insurgents are supposed to have been the Church of St Severin , situate in tho quartier St Jacques , near the river . Th * fortress and citadel was tue Faubourg St Antoine , oooupiedand b irricaded throughout , extending on one side from tke Temple , taking ia the Faubourg St Martin nud the Plnc j Lafayette , close to

    the Northern Railway and the Cloa St Lazaro . On the other eido the insurrection was in the quarfciera St Marcel , St Victor , and the lower part of the quartier St Jacques . Paris was ihm lapped in a large semicircle by aline of fortitioationa . Masters of the church of St Severin , of tho bridge St Miohel , and of the avenues lo the bridge of Notro Dime , they came to the Hotel do Ville , and they established them * selves in the Churoh of St Gervaia . If the insur > gents could hove coBae down from the Temple Bide the Hotel do Ville would have been placed batween two lirea . The Cloa St Lazire was fortified bo as to be rendered almost impregnable . It eras protested by immense barricades , and the insurgents were intrenched in an hospital , now erecting . Thin pest was connected with advanced works extending to the heights of the Faubourgs St Denis , St Martin La Chapelle , La Villette , the Temple , the

    quartier called Poptncourt , and the Faubourg St Antoine . There was great slaughter here . The National Guards from Poiisy and Pontoiae drevr up before the barricade of this Cloi St Lszire , and at the first fire fifty of them fell . Tho Pantheon the insurgents defended with our pieces of cannon . They bad also eeiz ; d tho college Henry IV . behind it , and this church waa tbe key of the position exfendiBg through the Quartier St Jacques ; othe church of St Severin . According to the Si cu , there are 1 . 500 National Guards lying dead in the church of St Severin , who fell in tbe slaughter at this spot . t

    The Church St Gervais , immediaely behind the Hotel do Ville , had to be taken from the inaurgents with cannon . The bridge of Notra Dame had to be swept bycirjnorj , as well astheQ'iaiausFieun . house of business six stories high , called ' La BsJIe Jardiniere , ' on this quay , was demolished by cannon balls . It bad been Uken possession of by the insurgents . The Cite was cleared at the time that the Pantheon was taken . ( From the Morning Herald . ) In tha Cite the insurgents entered the houses , and thus rendered themselves almost impregnable , on aacount of the narrowneaa of the streets . They also

    barricaded themselves in the large clotbiag establishment of the Belle Jerdiniere , from which they could only ^ bediBlodt fed by bringing cannon to bear on the house and knocking it down . This was done , and a body of about foity made prisoners . On their re . tiring from this spot they got possession ef the hospital of the Hotel Dieo , oa whioh cannon was also brought to bear , by which the armed force gained possession of it and the adjoining houses . On the Place Maubert , after a combat of two hours , the inourgents were driven sot , and they took refuge at the top of the Rue St Victor , near the wine depoti The troops followed them up closely , arid kept up a well directed fire on them . In the Faubourg St Marceau tho lighting was very severe , the insurgents defended all thtir barricades withgrtat obstinacy . At this point the fury of the people was suoh that the women threw boiling oil and water from the windows on the troops .

    At tho Pantheon the combat was very desperate . Fifteen hundred of the insurgents had barricaded themselves within the building , and in order to dislodge them it was Deoesasry . to plant cannon and break in the doora . This attack lasted at least for an hour and a half , but when a breaoh was made the National Guard * and the Line entered amidst a shower of balls , and raade the insurgents lay down their arms , FRIGHTFUL BATTLE IN ST ANTOTNE . TAKING OP THE 0 X 08 BT LA 2 A&B . ( From the Daily News . )

    Suuday , 11 a . m . —Afc five o'olock thij mnraing ( he ' generate' again seunded in all quarters . Regiments 6 f the line , infantry and cavalry , continued , to arrive from the departments . At six neveral legions of National Guard from the provinces marched into Paris . The quarter of tbe capital around the Chamber and the Tuileriea is literally covered with troops who bivouack in the streets and places . The Place de la Concorde and Champa Eljsees present the aspect of a camp . . Tbe insurgents have now collected in those quarters of the Faubourgs which are bejond the canal St Martin , and in the upper part of tho Faubourg Poissoniere ; Every house in La Villette and La Chapel ' e is converted into a fort , and every window is a loophole .

    All appeals to the insurgents to spare the Urea of their families by a surrender having failed , it is decided to-day to resort to extreme meana of suppression . A hundred and twenty pieces of cannon , in . eluding a large portion of heavy ordnance , are prepared for ibis d&y ' d work , besides mortar , havfUzsrs , and grenades , it is intended to attack house by house , to batter them with cannon , and to throw Bhellaon the roofs and grenades at the windows . The eng ineers are now reported to be employed in mining the houaea where tbe insurgents have taken refuge , the staircases of whioh have been destroyed . Nothing can be worse than the present aspeot of things . Ssveral thousand prisoners have been taken among the insurgents ; m my of them were immediately shot . The vaults of Notre Dame , the Louvre , the Tuileries , and tne Assembly , are filled with them . To-day wlllba tbe crisis ; the re 3 a ) t oan hardly ba doubted- —it will either be submission or

    extermination . AHcirccihtion through the streate is interdicted . Vehicles are seen passing everywhere , to carry away tbe dead . Oa the Plaoe de ( a Concorde , which ia oevared vrita cmlry and artillery , theraeu arc generally dismounted , and lying on the asphslte , taking their breakfasts . Waggons are seen bringing provender for the hordes , which ara tied round the fountains and round the obelisk , and ta the lampposts . Tbe Champs Ely sees arc converted into a vast camp j artillery is planted Jn the 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 , patroH ' ng the sfreets . I learn from Bome of these , that whenever they pass between the Chamber and the Hotel de Ville , they never fail to be fired upon by Insurgents from tbe windows in the latter quarter .

    Although , as I have stated , tae cumber of tegular troops in Parts , even with the accession of tha arrivals to-day , will not excesd 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 to appear today , except in single leaves , and even these iu limited numbers . The ckurch oi St Sulpice Is said to be ia the power of the insurgents , who have a piece of oannon there . An irruption from the operatives of Lyons and other manufacturing towns is feared . Sundat , 5 p . m . —All political cirds are interdicted " . This morning fighting took place at the Jardin des Plantea .

    The delay allowed the insurgents in tho Faubourg St Antoine to surrender having expired without any reply , tke operations immediately commenced , The first barricade was vigorously attacked and oarried , but not without considerable slaughter on the side of the assail ' Bts . Colonel Baynaud , of the 48 ih Regiment of the line , and several other officers were killed . General Boqaet , of the Engineers , arrived at tbe Place de la Baatille at twelve , with tbe firemen and a battalion of sappers . Some houses were in an instant blown up , and several barricades thas turned were captured without loss . On some p « inta the insurgents had dug treaoties , against which the artillery waa unavailable . They fired frera within , and , on the approach of the troops , escaped through passages opened in the cellars of tho houses . A large body sallied from the suburb towards noon , entered the island of St Louis , and formed a barricade on

    the Pont des Tournelles , whioh was undergoing rep urs . They were there kept in check by troops stationed in the wine stores on the opposite side , and wereaotually placed between two fires . The enclo . sure of St Lazire waa re-occupie I in the morning by the insurgents , who oarried away ten small pieces of artillery belonging to tho Chateau Rouge , whioh they loaded with Btone and pieces of broken bottles . Oa the Quay de la Megisserie some ruffiians fired from a window on & battallion cf trcops of the line , and escaped by a baok door into the street . Others were , at the same time , erecting a barricade close by , in the Rue de Buthizy ; but a patrol of National Guards dispersed them , and they fled , throwing their arms in the streets , A battery of Artillery had been placed on tho hill of Montmartre , and meaeures wore adopted to prevent the insurgents from gaining possession of that important position .

    By latent accounts which have reached me the Cloa St L&zare has fallen Sato tbe possession of the troops . Tbia place , the stronghold ot tho insurgents , resisted all the efforts of General Lamoriciere on Saturday for many hours . Its occupation by the enemy effectually kept the troops out ot the Faubourg St Antoine . It was carried by sterm about an hour ago . The old Munioipal Guards have been called to Paris . A great number of them were assembled round the Assembly , anxious to join ia the fight . Forty-four prisoners have been put to death on the Place de Grove . It r&a impossible to form an idea of tbe losses on bath eides but , in the opinion of many , Paris had not witnessed suoh & scene of slaughter since the massacre of St Bartholomew .

    Monpat Morning . —At eix o ' olock p . m . yesterday after the taking tt the Barrier Rooheouart , the body of tho chief of the insurgents , who defended it . was brought into the Mairie of the second arrondiasement .

By his pakneas it appeared that he had been mortally wounded , but on examination the surgeons declared it to be serious , but still there were hopes of his recovery .

    The women play a groat part in tho iuBUMeotion , many have been arrested on whom have beeu found cartouohes , which they carried to the insurgents ; one had hid tbwm in her basket covered with meat , whicto « he oarried on her head , another had sewn them inside her clothes .

    LAST GLORIOUS STRUGGLES § F THE

    PATRIO Tb . ( From ths Bai ' y News of Wednesday . ) Pabis , Monda ? , 3 p m —I have just now made g promenade , as far aa the eentineU 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 aisles of the churches , which are also filled with the woundtd . I have just been in aomo of them , where the odonr proceeding from the unhappy gnf . ferers is terrible . The wounded continue to past 00 litters and in vans every fire minutes . Founded horses are alfo led back from the fight . I learn that the bombardment of tbe Fanbouru ie now golcg on . ' Red hot balls are thrown among the insurgente , and into the house 3 in which they are shut u p . ' .

    Great losses were sustained on the banks of the Seine , because it was necessary to contest foot by foot the ninth arrondifisement . The insurgents had occupied nearly all the houses ; the Btreeta being barricaded , and communications opened between the courts allowed tae insurgents to go from place to place undercover within the triangle we have described . Trie windows , stepped up with planks aad mattreflsea , hid become ' meurtriere , ' and it wai necessary to take the housaa oao after the other ba . fore arriving at the barracks of the Celeatins , whioh were only carried after a severe cambat .

    The Faubourg St Antoine has been surrounded since the morning , and battered by cannon . A part of tbe troops descended to the Pont d ' AusteWi ' x , which they carried , and then , remounting under the orders of General Negrier , to the Place de la Bag . tille , by the Boulevard Bourbon , they placed them , selves between tbe barricades of the Rue St Aatoina and the Faubourg St Antoine . The Rue St AntoiBe wa 3 soon 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 Q'iai dea Ocmee , at the head of a detachment of the 24 th of the line and the artillery of the Natiosal Guards , to go by the q aays to the Pont Marie and the barr&eka of the CelestiH ? , which were still occupied by the insurgents ; the general , accompanied by some 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 the act oi Bending a commandant of the National Guards to cause Rome

    reinforcements to advance to relieve the upper part of the Rua St Antoine from the insurgents , he was struck by a ball , at the entrance of the Rue St Antoine , opposite the large barricade which defended the entrance of the Faubourg . M . Charbannel , a representative , was soriously wounded by his side .

    ( From the Times . ) , In the vicinity of the house , on ( he Boulevard da Temple , from whioh Fieschi fired on Louis ^ Philippe , the insurgents fought witb the most determined oou « [ Me throughout'the ( Jay . Not content with defend , ing the positions in the Rue d p Crussol and ihe Rue Menil Montard , they determined ob a aortie , and debouching from those streets spread themselves along the Boulevard to the Theatre de la Giite , fiuhtinp hand to hand wi * h the troops , while the main body , sweeping by the Jardin Turo , drove the National Guards , and tronps past the Cadran Bleu , and in * o the Rue Chariot . Their success was of on ' y brief duration . They were driven back at the point of tha bayonet , and although they continued to resist for hours afterwards , were ultimately obliged to retreat .

    The barricade of the barrier Roeheouart , which was defended fur so many hours , and whioh coat 84 many valuable lives , was commanded by M . L » Roche ( or La Roque ) , the editor of the journal the Fere DncHK * Nu . He was summoned by a Garde Mobile to surrender , and having refused , tho Garde shot him in the head . It is said that the 7 th legion of the National Garde Mobile lost 800 men at the attack on the Clos Saint Lsz're . A private of the 4 th legion of the same cor 8 , describing the attack on & barricade , in the Ruo Saint Jaoque ? , said that he left there threefourths of the legion , lie added that he escaped solely by throwing himself on his face , and he waa immediately covered by the men who fell under the fire of the insurgents , ' The dead bodies / said he , ' were tossed about as paviours throw paving atonea . '

    ( From the Daily News . ) Q , uartor-paat Five , p . m . —Since sending the last despatch , I am informed that , after having surrendered this morning , tbe insurgents retracted , 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 communications are so intercepted that I find it impossible to obtain other details with any degree of certainty . HORIUBLB MASSlCaS f F PRISONERS . Six o'Ci / ck , —1 hove just heard that six of the prisoners who were confined in the vaults of the Tuileriee , having put their heads out of the gratiags , were immediately brought out and shot .

    Fiv 9 hundred insurgents who were captured at the Clos St Lnzare were shot last night , and four hundred more thia morning .
