Gates aud bie coisngamr "ke ministry of the 29th October, 1849, exists no more. M Guizot, President of the Council, yesterday announced fecm the tribune of the Chamber of Dsputies that the kiog had sent for Count Mole, and charged him to form Snow cabinet. We believe that Count Mole has ac- cepted this mission. The declaration made by M. Gui aot was received by the opposition with demonstrations of joy, and by the fmmente mejority oi the chaimber with manifestations of a totaily diferent nature. In ai! the ranks of the conservative party wo saw sentiments of the wost paintuleurpriea expressed. In the midst o au egitation which we cannot describe, the deputies of the majority pressed around the ministers, aod sur- rounded them with the most striking testimonies of sympaiby. The ministry hus done ite duty, the ma- jority will do its duty, aod ali good citizens must also do cheirs As wassaid by the chief of the cabinet which has just ended, the prerogative of the crown must be fally respected We will notexpress at this moment the f und regret which juepires the fallof a ministry which basfor upwards of seven yeareso nobly and so couragrously represented the policy of the conservative party Our most sincere desiza is, that he who is called On (0 sucered it may be able to ratisty the wants of our country The Conservateur says: —Whatever may be the senti- ments of tine pariiamentary mejcrity, to whatever proofs it may be put, it will remain constitutional to the last {t will give to all an example of sincere and profound respect for the free exercise of tke prerogative consecra- by the charter.

Being organs cf this mejority, which can never bs shaken, and living im the middle of it, we express its sentiments at all times; those which have come forth at this particular moment, when ths presideat of the Council annousoss fom the tribune that Count Molé was charged with ths formstien of a new cabinet. What it will do, what it ought to do, it cannot yet know. ets must ds- pend upon events and political necessities. Its senti- ments uione remain invariable. {From Gatignani’s Messenger, Feb 24] ‘The information whish we have to lay before our read ers of the events of yeateraay, will bs found of great interest, both as regards some of the details and their rosu'te. By ebout nine o'clock in the morning, people assem- jed in considerable numbers, in the quarters St Denis and St. Martin, and at ten o'clock they bad succeeded in erecting barrica tes at the Porte St Denis, in the Rue de Clery, the Rae Neuve Seiat Eustache,the Ra+ de Cadran,and the Rus du Petit Carroau. A fusilide took place at some of thete barricades, between ths populace and the municipal guards.

Two hours Ister, one of our reporters paseed through the Place du Caire. It was then perfectly calm—In fact, not @ soul was to be seon except three National Guards in the Passage du Caire. At the Porte St. Denis, the troops charged the people, and the berricede in the Rus Cadran, at the entrance tothe Rue Montmartre, was attacked by the Municipal Guard, who fired on the mob, whereby # child was killed, and two workmen and three women were, it is said seriourly wounded At li o'clock, the crowd was dense in the vicinity of the Porte St. Martin; and there were cries of “ Down with Gaizoc!? “Long live Reform!)

Barricades which were constructed in the Rue du Tempio were destroyed by the troops about four o'clock. A chef ds battalion was. it is said, Kliled. The Pisce des were ocoupied by strong detachments. both of dragoons andicfentry. The Pairie relates that, in pasting alorg the former, the pickets of the National Guard cried, © Down with Guizot!

The barricades were constructed pi ly of cabs, diligences, carts, boards or anything else the people could lay their hands on ; and these different onjacts, being piled and fitted to’ wether as weil as porsidie, were keptio their places by Paving stones torn up from the streets. On the bouile- Yards @ great mony trees were cut down, and the bu. Teaux of the men who register the hackney cabs were dregged into the middle of the roadway. Almost every barricade was guarded by a small number of persona, some of whom were armed with guns, others with clubs; but the great majority were without armsat all. The people at the barricades bebaved very civilly to the pas- gers,allowing them to cross most of the barricades without difficulty ; but at some of those which opened ‘on the boulevards permission to pass was refused.
