iondon March S , 184 S . Caksidiehe . In quitting Paris on the 25 th of August , I said that on the day of dial I would present myself before a jury , and that nothing in the world should prevent me from keeping this promise , the observance of Ids word being one of the ¦ duties of an honest man and the virtue of a Republican . But in August I did not pledge myself to appear before a tribunal , constituted , in Xuvcmber . In August I did not engage to present myself before an exceptional jurisdiction , created three months later bv the very men who proscribed me , and with the view of obtaining my conviction by a retroactive measure , in contempt of the principles of eternal justice The decision to which the National Assembly , in contradiction with itself , lias given rise , and the indictment , which does not contain a single serious charge , afford sufficient proof that evidence is nothlngrivhere political passions are dominant Paris is abandoned to the sway of force more than ever . The scandal of arbitrary arrests is extreme . The counte r-revolution is dominant and furious ;
under such circumstances , and placed under the domnuon of the most shameful injustice ever exhibited , I reserve to mvself the right of deciding , if to serve my cause , I can do l > e " tter than to throw myself into hands of my enemies . The day cannot be far distant when party hatred shall yield to the voice of truth . I protest and bide my time . I lave read the act of accusation , and feel my heart divided Iwtween indignation and pity . It states that I succeeded , on the 15 th of ifav , hi escaping from the Hotel de Ville ; fiat arumour to that effect had been spread ; that , on the loth of Jlav , far from endeavouring to disperse the people , I felicitated iton having conquered the right _ to petition ; and a few lines further down I am shown advising the people to allow the Assembly to deliberate freely ; that , on the fith of ilav , at the Luxembourg , I held certain factions language - and the Moxitecr shows that on the 13 th of Hay I was no longer at the Luxembourjr , which had been given up to the executive commission . This is now called justice in France . I add no more . _
Xondon , Ifareh 3 . Loms BtAXC . [ We beg to express our cordial approbation of the decision expressed by Citizens Louis Blauc and Caussidiere in the above letters . Better remain in exile than commit themselves to the power of their enemies—the enemies of Democracy—who , insensible to the principles of honour and justice , would only be too happy to glut their hatred by adding t' ae above-named patriots to their already long l st of -victims . ] Bourges , Wednesday , March 7 . —Long before the hour fixed for the commencement of businesSi every avenue leading to the court , which is held in the Palais de Pacques Cceur , was thronged with persons anxious to obtain an entrance . The accommodation offered to the public was , from the small dimensions of the court , extremely limited . A large
detachment of sergens de viHe had come from Paris frith the prisoners , and remained to assist in carrying out the regulation during the trial . Few military , except the local gendarmiere , appeared under arms ; all were , however , kept in readiness in case of need . Ob s table in front of that of the president lay the var ious articles seized , and which were brought fernrard in support of the prosecution ; amongst them stood out in prominent relief the casque and uniform of the pompier , as well a 3 a large flag carried at the head of the invaders of the Chamber afterwards displayed at the Hotel de Ville . The jurymen , drawn together from all parts of France , come , some Of them , a distance of 100 leagues . Among the company in the gallery were ftlme . Bonne , the wife of one of the prisoners ; and the two daughters of the ex-General Cuurtais , and his mother .
The jury , to the uuraber of eighty-six , wendrawn by lot . The members of the Council-General of the Cfcer were required to be present . At a quarter before eleven o ' clock , M . de Berenger , the president , with the other judges , dressed in their official costume , eatered the court and the proceedings commenced . The decree of the National Assembly was first read by M . Baroch ? , the Procnreor-General , declaring the constitution of the High Court of Justice ; after which the names of the jury were called over . The lmissier called aloud the name of M . Martin Bernard , representative of the people ; and that gentleman , having answered , entered the jurv-room .
At a quarter to one the prisoners were introduced , and seated with a gendarme between each , They sere all well-dressed , and on entering cast their eyes round the court , and saluted such of their acquaintances as they recognised in the gallery . They all appeared rather pale , doubtless from their long confinement , but did not seem much cast down , occasionally looking round with an air at the coolest indifference . Raspail , immediately on entering , occupied himself in taking notes . The prisoners were then momentarily withdrawn , and recalled in the following order!—Raspail , Sobrier , Barhes , Albert , BlanquCLarget , Qatntin , Flotte , Courtais . At half-past one the president and the judges again entered the court , and the names of the prisoners were called over .
Blanqui , on his name being pronounced , addressed the president , protesting against beipg tried by the exceptional court which had been constituted for the trial , both in his own name , and in that of Ms fellow accused ; he therefore refused to take any part in the discussion . Albert said , on hearing his name read , that he would not answer any question . Barbes did the same , declaring that he would not recognise the competency of the court to try him . Sobrier gave Ms name and age , but declared that he should make no defence . Raspail said he was ready to reply under certain reservations ; and Flotie refused to reply . The President then addressed the jury , after which Blanqui again rose , and complained that the charges to be brought against the accused had not been communicated to them . Raspail next made a similar complaint .
Barbes again rose to protect in toto against the competency of the High Court of Justice ; but he was stopped by the president , who said his remarks must be reserved until a future stage in the proceedings . The registrar of the court then commenced reading the indictment , which enters into a long and detailed account of the procession along the boulevards to the National Assembly , and of the invasion of the Chamber , the particulars of which are sufficiently known to our readers ; and then proceeds to state the conduct of Barbes on that occasion , when he mounted the tribune and demanded the immediate marching of an army to Poland , and the imposition of a milliard on the wealthy . It
next details the conduct of Barbes on leaving the Chamber for the Hotel de Ville , and there issuing a list of a new Provisional Government , and of his arrest in that building in company with Albert , Bonne , and Thomas . The indictment then points out the part taken by each respectively in the affair of the 15 ih May . Caussidiere is represented as the author of a plan concocted with . Sobrier to overthrow a part of the Provisional Government . ' The coalition of these two men , ' continues the indictment , ? explains the manner in which the large quantity of arms and ammunition was divided between the Prefecture of Police and the house in the rue de Rivoli . The question was at one time discussed at the
latter place of setting fire to the capital Caussidiere recommended tbe manufacturing of fire-balls in the provinces , and allowed Bonne to try an exper iment with some in the Court of the Prefecture . ' After some further details of matters already wellknown , the indictment concludes as follows : —• Considering that from the examinations and documents produced , there are , first , against Blanqui , Flotte , Albert , Barbes , Sobrier , Raspail , Quentin , Degre , Larger , Borme , Thomas , . Louis Blanc , Seigneuret , fionneau , Huber , Lavirron , and Chancel , sufficient proofs of their having , in May , 1848 , been guilly of * n attempt to destroy or change the Government , ind also for having attempted to excite civil war fad armone citizen against another ; and against

Courtais , Caussidiere , and Villain for ' making themselves accomplices in the said attempt , having a knowledge of all tbe facts connected therewith , orders them to be placed on their trial according l During the reading of that part of the indictment , in which it is set forth that after Barbes bad demanded the imposition of a milliard on the rich , and that a voice exclaimed , 'It is not that we wantwe want two hours' pfflaga of Paris , ' all the accused rose in the greatest emotion . Blanqui declared in
the most forcible manner that ao such proposition had been made ; Barbes repeated a like contradiction , and denounced it as a falsehood and calumny Raspail protested agains t it with the most animated gestures he designated it as an official falsehood , which it was disgraceful on the part of the Procureur-General to have inserted in the indictment . The p ' ocurear-General appealed to the President against such language . This incident causes a certain sensation in the court . Quentin afterwards rose , and protested against the calumnies uttered against them in
the indictment . When the reading of the indictment had been completed , Barbes again rose to protest against the competency of the court , but was stopped by the President , on which Barbes declared that he would not again enter the court unless compelled . The names of the witnesses were then called over , and the court broke up at six o'clock . Thursday , March 8 . — The court opened at ten o'clock , when the attendance was again very numerous , all the tribunes being filled . On taking his seat , the President announced that the two prisoners Barhes ana Albert having refused to be present at the sitting of the court , they had been
summoned to attend in the usual fonn by tbe huissier , who then read the proees verbal of his visit , and their refusal . The President declared that , as their presence in the court was absolutely essential to the ends of justice , he should once more command their presence , and that if they again refused they should be brought into court by force . The two prisoners were consequently in a few minutes led in hy gendarmes , and placed in their seats . Barbes was not dressed with the same care as on the previous day ; Albert presented precisely the same ap . pearance . Immediately on his entrance , Barbes ,
addressing the President , said that , as he had been compelled to attend the court , he should refrain from taking any part in the proceedings , and refuse to reply to any questions that might be put him . Blanqui complained that , from the crowded state of the bench on which he was placed , he could not take notes . A gendarme was consequently removed , in order to give him more room . Courtais addressed the President , declaring his acceptance of the jury and the court which had been constituted for his trial ; Borme and Deere , on the contrary , intimated that they would not accept it .
Raspail said : Gentlemen of the High Court , in declining your competence , I only follow the course pursued in the Court of Cassation . Your high jurisdiction is not consistent with the law , and yon are the sole judges of its competence . The offence of the 15 th of May was committed in open day , and a fortn ight would have sufficed to identify the guilty , and now ten months have passed over us in confinement without having been tried , This appears to me to prove that an exceptional law has been made to reach us . The judicial power performs its usual fractions . The Chamber of accusations might have sent us before a jury . It has done so and has discharged
its duty , but the Natiosal Assembly in directing our trial be ' ore yo « i an extraordinary tribunal , has voted a law and overthrown our institutions . When we applied to tbe Court of Cassation , we were told ; "It was enough that thew should be a decree of the legislative authority ; we are here to pronounce the execution of its decrees . '' Have we been treated as persons guilty of a misdemeanour ? No , we have been treated as guilty of the blackest crime , as wild beasts , brought here in cases . And now , if we be
acquitted , who will recompense all our sufferings ? I ¦ will accept willingly the judges who are now before me , because they have been appointed by the Republic—that Republic to which I am devoted . I , Rasoail , whom they would prevent from being a representative ; I , who desired the happiness of the people , and who , if deceived , am ready to sacrifice myself on tbe altar of my country , it is I who am accused of having betrayed the Republic ! Raspail then delivered some written objections to the competence of the court , in -which most of the accused joined .
Blanqul said : ' The invasion of the loth of May was only an unforeseen tumult , of which we have been the victims ; thus it was necessary , to meet the exigency of this anomalous trial , to create a jurisdiction more complying than usual ; and it has been done amongst the great proprietors , for the ardent defenders of popular rights at Paris are not here represented , because they are afraid of Paris . ' It was determined that they should be brought before a tribunal where conviction was not only
certain , but where it was evidently desired thai they shoHld be torn and lacerated , as it were with the daws of a wild cat . The President here interposed recommending the prisoner to be more guarded in his language . Blanqui , bowing to the President , continued at great length vehemently to declaim against the illegality of the entire proceedings , and concluded by warmly protesting against the competency of the court before which he had been made to appear .
A gentleman dressed in plain clothes , who was seated amongst the counsel for the prisoners , here rose and addressed the President . The President : In which quality do you address tbe court ? M . Levy , the individual in question , explained that he was counsel for one of the accused . The President then accorded him permission to speak , which he did , by simply protesting on behalf of his client against the competency of the court . Larger rose and declared that he adhered to the remarks made by Raspail . Flotte , by his counsel , said that he too protested against the competency of the court , without , however , adhering to all that had been said by Raspail . M . Riviere next addressed the court as counsel for Villain .
M . Baroche : How is it that you do not appear m your official costume ? ¦ ¦ M . Eiviere explained that he had not brought his gown with him , as he expected to be able to procure one at Bourges , but , not succeeding , he had been forced to send to Paris for one , which had not yet arrived . ( Laughter . ) His excuse having been ad ' mitted , he limited his address to an expression of the fact that his client did not recognise the competency of the High Court of Justice .
M . Baroehe , Procureur-General , replied at some length to the complaints made against the judicial authorities , and contended that no delay uncalled for by tbe great number of witnesses to be examined and documents to be prepared had taken place in the proceedings . The sitting was suspended for some time , during which the jury withdrew , and the prisoners were led out of conrt . At four o ' clock the jury returned to their seats , the prisoners were brought in ; and the President and judges entered .
The President replied at some length to the objections made by the accused to the competency of the High Court of Justice , declaring it to have been in perfect accordance with the provisions of the laws , and in keeping with the letter and spirit of the Constitution . The President next quoted various articles from the Codes and the Constitution bearing on the point at issue , and then pronounced the judgment come to by the court , overruling all the objections brought forward by the prisoners and their counsel , and declaring its competence to proceed with the 4 rial . The court then adjourned . Fbiday , March 9 th . —A number of witnesses arrived this day ; among them were MM . Buchez and Flocon .
At a quarter past ten the accused were introduced . Barbes , Albert , Sobrier , Raspail , Flotte , and Bonne , were not among them . The commissaire central , left the court , accompanied by eight er ten gendarmes , and a moment afterwards Borme and Sobrier arrived , followed by Albert and Barbes , the last two held under the arms by gendarmes . Raspail arrived immediately afterwards , escorted by police agents . Flotte alone was absent . It seemed that the agents found him in bed " , and that he refused to rise . At half-past ten an officer announced the court opened , and all the accused arose , with
the exception of Barbes and Albert . The President announced that Flotte , having refused to appear , he had given orders that he should be summoned . A clerk announced that Flotte had been found in bed , and without clothing of any kind ; and when sum . moned he answered that as he did not acknowledge the jurisdiction of the High Court , he refused to attend its sitting . He was summoned to sign , and refused . The President having read the section of the law giving him power to use force in such cases , ordered that Flotte should be obliged to attend , and in ten minute ! lie was carried in by two gendarmes

He \ ws placed on-tl ^ bench the accused , and immediately arose , saying , « I declare— ' The President : ' You have not the parole . '—Flotte : 'I demand it . '—The President ; 'You have not the parole . — 'Flotte : 'I declare that I have had enough of your exceptional tribunal , of your royalist presence . —The President ; 'You have not the parole ; call the witnesses . '—Some discussion then took place concerning the witnesses , and some merely formal , and therefore quite uninteresting points , when Blanqui contended that the accused , according to law , could not be interrogated at the commencement of the trial , and that questions could oaly be addressed to them during the confrontation
with witnesses . He was overruled . Blacqui Albert , Barbes , and Sobrier declared they would not answer . The President proceeded to interrogate Raspail , who admitted the jurisdiction of the High Court ; He was accused of having marched at tbe head of his club to lhe National Assembly to present a petition in favour of Poland . He was asked , ' How did you enter the National Assembly ? ' He answered , ' Some tumult had already manitested itself on the Place de la Concorde . As proved by the accusation , I did not arrive at the Assembly until an hour after it was invaded . I said to my club , < In former times petitions were presented at the bar of the Convention ; the National Assembly has
removed that bat to the tribune ; we must there peaceably deposit our petition . ' I then entered the hall , which was crowded to excess . I recognised many men belonging to the police , and p ointed them out to the juge d * instruction , but he would not follow the plan I pointed out for again finding them The President himself and the representatives persuaded me to ascend the tribune , and to read the petition . After reading it I descended . ' —The Procureur-General : Wheu you ascended the tribune to read the petition , did you not hear protestations in varions parts of the ball against your presence in the tribune P' —Raspail : ' I would have wished to have seen you in my place amidst the tumult . I saw some few representatives move ; if I had heard them , I weuld have answered that I was there to
protect them and to empty the hall . It was lmpossible for me from the tribune to hear the little squeaking voice of the witness Adelsward . If I had entered the Assembly to overthrow it | I would have said so . It was not the prison which antighted me ; it was the illusion . '—A juror : 'I know not whether a juror has arig ht to put a qu / stion . ' — -Tha President : You may speak . '—Juror : ' I would ask the accused Raspail , in what manner he was introduced by the accused Courtais . ' — Raspail : The 1 General said the delegates might enter , and having given my name , I entered . ' -15 Ianqui : ' . The representative who came to say that the delegates of the club might enter the Hall of Conference was citizenXavier Durrieu . ' -Raspail : 'I knew it was some one who had authority . '—The Procureur-General : ' M . Durrieu is called as a witness . '
The accused Courtais energetically defended himself from the accusation of having betrayed his duty . The court rose at six o'clock . Saturday , March 10 . —The court sat at halfpast ten . The President desired the witnesses to be called . —M . Dagueaux , restaurateur , went to the house of Doulais on the 12 th of May , and there learned that a resolution had been come toto make a manifestation on the 15 th , to carry to the Assembly a petition in favour of Poland . Had known some of the accused a long time , and particularly Blanqui , having been at his club in 1831 . —M . Bourquet confirmed the above witness . —M . Bandurau , civil engineer , said that in the central club ,
of which he was the vice-president , a resolution was come to to make a manifestation in favour of Poland on the 15 th of May . That this manifestation was to be pacific , and respectful to the Assembly . That some men who were at the head of the cortege on the bridge at once changed its character . He went into the hall of the Assembly , and there saw Blanqui at the tribune , lie then quitted the Assembly , and went instinctively to the house of Sobrier , in the Rue Rivoli , to obtain some information on the affair , but did not find him at home . — M . Dautriche made along and remarkable atatemen of occurrences at which he happened to be present . He was driven by the crowd almost to the court of
the Assembly , where he saw Barbes , Louis Blanc , and Albert round a large flag addressing ( he people —At this , Barbes rose and defended Louis Blanc , assuming himself all the responsibility of the address attributed to Louis Blanc—M . Bertroylid , a commissary of police , knew the greater part of the accused . He arrested some of them . On the 15 th of May he made a search y , t the house of Villaui , where he seized many plans of machines . —Yillani said those plans had no relation to political plots , and claimed their restoration . —M . Douet , a commissary of police , also made a deposition , but
containing no facts of importance . —M . Yon , commissary of police , was called , but was absent . —M . Dupin , tailor , gave a statement of the occurrences of the I 5 th of May . He could not identify any of the prisoners , not even Raspail , whom he described aa having worn on that day coloured pantaloons . — Raspail denied this , saying he never wore other than black . —M . Sanieski , a Polish refugee , said that on the 14 th of May he had been solicited to take part in the manifestation , and that he refused , saying it could only injure their cause . —The court rose at six o ' clock .
Monday , March 12 . —The proceedings in the High Ceurt of Justice , were resumed at half-past 12 o'clock . The witnesses for the prosecution examined were Joseph Alceste , Pierre Hyppolytc , and La Grange . Ernest Eugoin was also called on , but he decliued giving his evidence , which he alleged he could not consistently do before the High Court , inasmuch as he considered its creation a violation of the Constitution . He was fined lOQf ., and his previous evidence before the examining magistrate put in and read . Dufrey , a secretary of the Assembly M . Yon , Commissary of Police ; and M . Buchez , ex-President of the Chamber , were subsequently examined for the prosecution . The Court adjourned at six o ' clock .

Wednusday , March 14 . —In the commencement of the judicial proceedings at Bourges yesterday , which were resumed at half-past ten o'clock with a very crowded court , the prisoner Raspail handed in a written protest against the discrepancies of the report published by the Moniteur of the sitting of the National Assembly on the 15 th of May , and the insertion of expressions about the pillage of Paris , which it was proved by several wit .
nesses had not been uttered . He demanded that the asthor of the calumny should be punished . — The Court retired to deliberate on the incidents , and in a few minutes gave its decision—that as the words said to have beeh uttered had not been attributed to Raspail or any of the prisoners , i . t was irrelevant to the affair . The conclusions of Raspail were therefore rejected . —Several witnesses for the prosecution were then examined , after which the Court adjourned .

For some time past it has been the evident intention of the Catholic powers that a joint intervention should take place in favour of his Holiness , and this expedition will co-operate by sea , while the Neapolitan and Austrian forces , which have been for the last fortnight on the Roman frontier , will attack by land .
ITALY . THE ROMAN REPUBLIC—The Contemporaneo of the 28 th ult . announces that M . Mazzini was proclaimed member of the Roman Constituent Assembly on the 27 th . On the same day that assembly adopted the law on judiciary organisation which abolished all privileged jurisdictions , suppressed the ecclesiastical tribunals , and established at Rome a Court of Appeal and a Court of Cassation . The Assembly next voted by acclamation a project of decree abolishing the Holy Office ( the
Inq uis < Hon ) and decided that a pillar should be erected on the site of the palace where it had been installed The Minister of Finance had ordered , under the severest penalties , the deposit in the Treasury of a'l the funds accruing from mortmain property , which , by a decision of the Constituent Assembly of the 21 st ult ., were to be applied to the urgent wants of the country , ilight days only were allowed to effect that payment . It was reported that an engagement h ad taken place at Epitaffio , on the 24 th , between the Roman and Neapolitan advanced posts , the particulars of which were not known .
The Epoca of Borne states that 4 , 000 Greeks , now in Eptrus , ready armed and disciplined , bare offered their services to the Roman Republic . TUSCANY . —The Alia of the 2 nd inst . announces that the Tuscans were in possession of the important defile of Correlo , and that the troops of Este still remained at Castelnuovo-dei-Monti . No military movements towards the frontier of Tuscany were obsarvable in the Duchy of Modena . NAPLES AND SICILY .-On the 26 th ult ., MM . Temple and Rayneval , and Admirals Parker and Baudin , went to Gaeta to settle with the King the ultimatum to be offered to the Sicilians , on the refusal of which the mediating powers would retire , and leave the parties to act for themselves .
The following were the conditions submitted to the King : —A general amnesty , excepting thirty leaders of the revolution , who were to receive passports ; the constitution of 1812 , modified ; one army only , with a Sicilian contingent ; independent parliament ; finances , municipalities , and tribunals ; lieutenant to be named by tbe King , either » princeroyal or a Sicilian . The head of the household , the foreign affairs , war , and marine , to depend on the King ; a contribution of four millions of arrearsi and one million of war indemnity to be made .
The following letter from Naples , dated the 27 th ult ., appear in the Gazette du Midi : — ' I have only a moment to announce to you the pacific conclusion of the affairs of Sicily . . The Sicilians return to their allegiance to Ferdinand II ., who accords them a full and complete amnesty and the constitution of 1812 , with the modifications required by the present times . The day after to-morrow the French and English squadrons will take their departure for Palermo where they are to instal the lieutenantgeneral and all the king ' s government . ' [ We advise our readers , before accepting the above as gospel truth , to wait a little longer , and ascertain for themselves what the Sicilians have to say to these arrangements . ] Anticipated Renewal of the War in
Lombardy . —The address of the Chamber of Deputies of Turin , in answer to a speech from the throne , was presented to the king on the 5 th instant . Both the address and the royal answer expressed a firm determination to resume the war . Preparations for re-opening the campaign are in active progress . Minister Buffa has published an energetic proclamation , inviting the Genoese to enrol themselves , and great numbera of horses are being bought up in Switzerland for the Piedraontese army .
A letter , dated Paris , Sunday evening , says : — 1 The accounts received from Turin to-day are of the most warlike description . Active preparations are making for a new campaign , and troops are flocking to the frontiers of Lorabardy . Several corps of artillery , which were stationed at Turin and other places in the interior , have also been despatched to Novarre and Mortara . The rumour is current today , that hostilities have actually commenced between the Piedmontese and the Austrian *; but this is not likely , as the attack must came from the side of the Piedroontese , and we have net yet heard of their crossing the Tessino , The general impression appears , however , to be that hostilities canHOt be much longer delaved . '
( Letters from Turin , of the 7 th instant , received m Paris to-day , announce that the Sing had appointed M . Ratazzi , late Minister of the Interior , to be Minister-at-War . It may be recollected that it was he who , in opposition to M . Gioberti , woposed

THE WAR IN HUNGARY .. ( From the correspondent of the Times . ) Vienna , March 5 . —Since the 26 th bulletin we have received no further official news from the headquarters of Prince Winiischgratz , and tfeis silence makes people here afraid that matters are not going on so favourably for the Austrian arms as could be wished . Although our bulletins are quite silent as to the strength of the Hungarian army which took the field on the 2 Gth and 27 th of February , as well as to the names of its commanders , there is every reason to suppose that it amounted to 45 , 000 men , under the supreme command of General Dembiuski .
SPAIN . The Fomento of Barcelona , of the 6 th , publishes a proclamation addressed by Cabrera to the insurgents of Catalonia , in which he announces his resumption of the command , thanks them for their efforts , states that Navarre , the Basque provinces , Gallicia , and Austria second them , and that Aragon and Valentia will imitate them , lie adds , that the King ( Count de Montemolin ) promises institutions in harmony with the spirit of the times , and will support his promises by the sword .
