Romantic Incident, and a Marriage, after Danger—A Duel—The Election—Vhe Palaces—The Assembly— No Great Genius yet Risen in this Revolution, Ihave referred to the manner in which one soldier owas scrved, after al! his companions, numbering four- teen, had been killed by the masses during the third day of the revolution in Paris, at the guard-house | of the Place de la Concorde. It will be remanber- ed tbat, rushing through the masses, the bayonets, and ‘showers of bails, a female seized him about the neck, called bim her father, and demanded that they should rpare him. In all this she was successful. Net eontont with this, +ho secreted him, and by hor daily labor supported him, until it was safe for him to make b's apperrance and guin h's own subsistence ; this he . id as s00n as he could ; and finding himselfin good duriners, last week he reciprocated the protection ho had received, by making this young girl his wife. The affair has created a good deal of interest ; and thay at least will have cause to be reminded of the ravolu- tion and some of its fruits, Captain Bertrand, who addressed the letter before referred to by me, to the commander of the National Guards, which drew a chalienge from the intter, and which was settled by fénce swords, has just fought a duel with Captain -Goudchaux, ofthe \»ticnal Guard, and badly lacerated him with his sword ; he is the son of the faithful, who went with Napoleon to St. Helena. and remained true to him to his death,—his name is Napoleon Bertrande, | and he seems to have little fear of exposing his own life. E The leiter of the Mayor of Paris, declining his sala- | ry as Mayor, which went the rounds of the press, proves to be fictitious, and has created a good deal of amuse- ment ; butas he reported the constitution giviog a as Representative and Mayor to the same per- son, if he happened to hold the two offices, is the case in fact, it has its effect. and may produce good re sults, though an effort is making to detect the culprit ‘The press and caricatures are terribly powerful organ ‘at this time in Paris; and no man is strong enong to stand up against them, and no people feel ridicule more keenly than the French. or are less able to stand against it. Two elections of Representatives are soon to take place in Paris, to fillthe vacancies occasioned dy the resignations of LouisNapoleon Bonaparte and Thiere. who was-elected for the Seine Inferior. I think ‘the former will be elected, unless he refuses the use of dis name. A caricature is in circulation representing | ‘Napoleon as saying, “fam the nepaew of my uncle ;”? and another under it, representing Prince de Joinville as saying, “I am the uncle of my nephew ;” and both are asking for power. The wounded have been removed from the Palace of the Tuileries ; and a strong effort is being made to in- aduco tho Assembly to hold their sessions there, as the present chamber is very inconvenient ; but there is much opposition to the measure, and it is now said that the Palace is to be used by the President. ‘The cfficers of the republic understand but imperfest- ly the torling of the French people. No man short of a crown d head, or a talent like that of Bonaparte, will ‘ever be permitted to sit himself down on the sofas of the palaces, Indeed, these magnificent palaces. and their rich and elegant furniture, are great stumbling- blocks in the path of a French republic, and especially in that of the leading officers of the republic ; they -ought to pray to be delivered from temptation, for to touch them would be ns fatal to them as eating the for- Didden fruit wes to poor Eve.

Politics, émeutes, theatres and dining parties are mow in full operation in Paris, and all are well attend- ed to—and amidst item the Republic marches on- ward. The consideration of tho Constitution, as it ame from the committee, is now in the hands of the eighteen bureaux into which the Assembly is divided ; and each of these bureaux is to submit its amend- ments; and then the Constitution, and then several propositions for amendments are again to be submitted to the consideration of the committee, and by them dealt with os they judge to be expedient, and then the final report of the committee is to be made tothe As sembly, who are to-d’scurs publicly the project. It will be wonderful if much of the original is left, after it shal! have gone this round in an assembly where there ate as many minds as men, differing very mate- tially upon many, or perbaps on all, the important principles which lie at the foundation of an organic line fora State—for instance. the Presse which I regard ‘as tho most talented paper in Paris, and which has, rhape. the largest circulation, but which is offered to the government and probably the Republic—-yet discus- ges with great ability, and I think would favor even a Republic, were the editor at the head of Presse—pro- ores a constitution in these words, to-wit: “The cople reign” —“The Ministers govern” —“ The gene- ral disectors administer.’ This, he s¢ is sufficient for the theory ; then he provides that “there shall be three ministers”-—‘' the President the Council” — “The Ministers of Public Finances nd Ministers of Public Works.”’ That is sufficient for the practice. He says : “ The President of the Council is elected by allot in the National Assembly by a majority ; and he chooses bis colleagues, and in case of a disagreement between the Ministers and the Assembly, the latter is dieeclved.”’ Te the defence of the sufficiency of this constitution for a Republic, the Presse has devoted many columns and much reasoning, and it has been eeriously and vigorously refuted by other journals; Dut come of those presses, who deny the sufficiency of this Constitution, say that a half page is sufficient to contain all the provisions necessary for one. There ure others who contend that the Republic will go along better without any constitution ; and that they must do as the Provisional Govern: it did—deeree for the day and redecree for the morrow, if necessary, never looking forward, in anticipation s single day, but letting each day and care be provided for extempor by a decree; and | am not sure, but this view wi secure a good many voices in its support. Now, terday— the entire day was said to be spent in the bureaux, that part allotted to the Bureaux | mean, in discussing the question touching tho election of the President ; and it is said that a majority are inclined to take his election away from the people the first two years. and give it to the present Assembly—this act, } understand, is to defeat the election of Louis Napoleon. I give you these views, that all may seo ‘how imperfectly understood are the great principles of civil liberty in the most enlightened nation in Eu Tope, and among the most distinguished minds which, of them have added lustre to the world, by iuctions ; yet, in the framing Republican in- siitutions enpable of Lat 4 executed, and of sconring h the great purposes which they eo ardently desire, they eppear to reason like children, compared, at least, with the views of our people upon such aub- jcots. ‘Throughout sll my letters, it will be recol- ected, that my impression never has been since the revolution, that the greatest danger which the Re- public had to fear, was from the Nati As- sembly, and the inability of the leading mfwds in France to perform well their parts—t masses have done their duty to perfection, and even maintain order now, under ali the dissatisfaction and discour- agement, which the confusion among the leading minds create. The good sense is at the bottom of the heap; and must end well, rise to the top, from the snasses. The masses will serve the Republic, if it be sound, as! think it will be. But they have made a grand mistake in electing so many public functiona- ries to the National Assembly, and yet it was a natural act, and ono which all the world applauded, for they were thought to be men learned and better «qualified thi those who gaye them their suffrages. ime wil! cure this evil in France, as it has in the ‘United States.

Condition of Affairs in Italy—The Purposes of France ‘om Reference Thereto—The Rappel Beat—The French, English, Americans——My Impressions ‘Tho aspect of affairs looks grave for Italy this morn- ‘Ing—at least» uch more than @ week since. Charles Albert is assatiod severely for allowing Viconsa to be exposed to the enemy; and Austria is rejoicing over Atstelumph. France is beginning to caution the Ital- Jans, that they do not exchange the yoke of one king for that ef another, ent to indicate thet Charies | Austria, or his own, at the expense of the liberties of Italy ; and the opinion is gaining ground that the con- tingency is approaching rapidly, when the Italians will callloudly for assistance, as they havealready done tom lmited eastent since their recent disasters ; and that France shonld prepare forghwith to lend them her aid. I do not perceive any avconnt, orappoarance, which confirms the news of the declaration of war, on the part of Russia, against the German confederation; and I, therefore, at present, doubt its existence. There is great confusion and ir: Jarity inthe mails, and | the public mind is so excited, that it is exceedingly dif- | ficult, frequently, to determine what degree of oredit | can be given to specific information. What Isee, | am sure of; beyond that, there ifulways some uncertainty in my Cwu mind, at least, and much more is necessary not io mislead others, 1, therefore, always express dovbtingly what | do not consider to be quite well au- thenticatcd. The first news from Prague, gives the go- vernment a decided victory ; but the second, left the parties Sabine and the result very doubtfal, and so it remains this morning but one thing appears to ba certain, and that is,that a great many have been killed and wounded, and that the exasperation is terrible, | giving and asking littie quarter. At this moment the rappel is beuting under iny window to call out the Na- | tional Guards; so I suppose there is avother émeute, and Tam going out to see the axpect which the city presents, For a day or two, there have appeared no signs of an approaching movement ; but | do not ap- prebend any grave event at this mont. If the French would only (alk one-balfas much as the English, wo should better know what was geing to happen ; but then, perhaps, they wou d do as the Lnglish ao, deceive by doing nothing. It is only by certain indications that any ono can judge of the future, or foreseo events, in Paris, or France—it is done before a stranger would | be aware that a movement bad taken place. No na- tion can exceed the French in courage and prompti- tude, and adroitness, The Englich are much stronger men, generally, than the French, but much less adroit. Indeed, I regard the men of America, the United States, 1 mean—and England, as stronger than those of any other nation ; and the superior intelligence aud aptness of the Americans, give them a great advantage over the English, in both the arts cf peace and war — | Indeed, from what I have observed of the physical strength of the men of other nations, the-manner in which they have been, and aro fed, their moral and in- tellectual condition, | am satisfied, that there is no na- tion that presents an army of men, equal in power, to a | like number of Americaus, either by land, or sea, ia- ving the sane discipline and experience. This may scem hke a disposition to prejudge our own case ; but, asl believe it from the results of my own observations and expcrience, asI am confident thatit fs trae ; and us reasons, ample ones, exist, why it should be as it is, why not declare it ; and if the fact be true, let us have the benefit of it? If not, let him refute it who | can. Our character, country. mode of living, habits of Pf labor and industry, and education, moral, intel- | lectual and religious; our manners of liviug from our infancy, including both food and clothing. and the resolution of purpose which are habits und institutions, instilled into the minds of men from their infancy there, and otber circumstances, give an efficient su- | periority to our men which ean be found in the people | ofno other nation of whom | have any knowledge.— ‘Tho-e who can see no other purpose in these remarks but that of glorifying our own country, I ask to refer ; them to our institutions, and our babits ot growing up from rhose institutions, and see if some other deduc- tions cannot be legitimately drawn from them. If | they are facts, do they not tell in favor of republican institutions, frée schools, perpetual industry, equal , privileges. and @ bigh moral tone}of feeiing.to be met with in no mouurchical country ? OBSERVER. | Pants, June, 23 1848, | My Discovgrics after the Rappel—The Slate of Excite- | ment—The Conversation—The Conduct of Men—The | Article from the Press of this Morning. | The troops have responded to the rappel, aud ten | thousand, at least, now surround the National As | | sembly, and are stationed about at the bridge and on the Pluce de la Concorde, which is thereby connected | with the Palace of the Assembly. The dragoons and | lancers of the line are out in great force, us well as the | infantry of the National Guards. The occasion of | it has been large assemblies of men this morning about | the Assembly, at the Luxembourg, on the Boulevards, | atthe rues Suint Denis and Saint Martin, and many | other principal points in the city. I have passed two | hours in walking round among the crowd, listening to | their converrations,and speaking with them of different | opinions and in different conditions. 1 asked one | merchant in rue Rivoli, what was the cause of the agi- | tation; he told menot to be alarmed —there was no danger. I aswered him I was not, Are you English, | said he? “No, I aman American.” “Oh!” said he,“ 1 } understand pow.”’ ‘Then he said that tne people were | dissatisfied with the National Assembly. and that there | was much «excitement against it in the country | than in Paris. 1 asked what they wanted? He said, | “generally Louis Napoleon.” “Foran Emperor,” said |? | “No, fora President.’ “Then they want a Republio,”’ said 1? “Yes, but they want him at the head of it; buta eat many,” said he, “want Henri Cing.” Then,turn- ing his head up side down frequently, he said : “The French change so—I am Swiss,—we and you have a good Republic.” So bidding him good morning, whom Thad never seen, and never expect to see again, I went into the crowd; and then I listened to their denuncia- tions of the Government and the Assembly. They said, “they do nothing but murder the citizens and spend their money; they steal the public money, idly away their time, disgrace France in the eyes of foreign na- tions; and now they are attempting to deprive the peo- Je of the liberty of the press and the right of electing Their President (referring to what took place in the bureaux yesterday); and because we complain, they shoot us down. In six months,” said they, “we shall not have bread, and there will be no employment for the laborers."’ The agitation was extreme among the Hot nd they trembled, and their lips quevered, and their looks evinced a resolution that no one can mistake the import ef, who knows much of the French charac- ter, Should the Assembly deprive the people of the right to chocse a President, it would be attributed to their fear of the election of Louis Bonaparte. And should the President be shackled at the same time as proposed by the Minister of Justice in connexion with the growing dissatisfaction against the acts of the As- sembly and Executive, any one can foresee one result. What others may foilow in its train,no one can foresee. The Napolecn Republican of this morning has for its motto :* The People are sole sovereigns; her Represen- tatives are our clerke.”’ And for an editorial :“Civil war,oracapture” And then the commentary :“Am- Litions of small stature,—great speakers,—braygarts of all shades,— men subtlle in mystifications,—fabr'ca‘ora of political constitutions-You had promised the French people democratic institutions;—yeu had promised to guaranty the existence of the working men by their labore;—you had yet promised to French citizens ap- propriate labory;—you had offered them liberty, equa- lity and fraternity, without death. You have not known how to give either liberty, fraternity or equeli- ty, but only death, You are devoted to contemp you are of those of whom it issaid that “the stones when they asked of them bread. You are de- voted to infamy, for th had promised well being. and you have realized only the spoliation. You are devot- ed to the indignation of honest men, for you know only how to make us die of misery; you seck to transform brothers into enemies. I have said it before, the great talkers and braggarts destroy France; it is necessary to have one man to save it—Napoleon,”” Such articles as these thrown into the hands of ten of thousand, excited asI have described; and weting under their present impressions, create ‘1 dangerous crisis in the affairs of France.

This date of the 23d looks ominous—for it was among those of my letters which gave you a daily account of the progress of the revolution, written during its pro- gters. I have just returned from a second excursion and find that barricades have been raised in Rue St- Antoine, and at Porte St. Denis, and in some other places, Some of them reach the second story of the houses adjoining, and are very solid. The government bas sent cannon and artillery in full force to demolish them, and while I was out, a half hour since, the géiné- vale was beaten, which is designed to be the signal of the highest kind of danger, and a call for all the force in the city. { «uppose that more than one hundred thousand men are now under armsin the different parts cf Paris; and as the day is very warm, it is not ho- liday sport for the soldiers; but it is a harvest for the water, beer and lemonade carriers, who are almost as numerous as the soldiers, and as intent upon their du- ties. These ate principally women, who take # long and highly ornamented cask upon their backs, and ha ving # faucet at the end of a pipe extending in front of them, and with a bellin their hands to give notice of their approach, they march round daily in the differ- ent parts of the city. There is a staff attached to the lower end ef the cask, 0 that when they lean back enough to stand erect, and stop to rest, the cask rests iis weight upon the staff. But there is no occasion to ring their belis to-day, for the soldiers come round them in companies, and it is certainly for their interest to get up an émuteevory day. But | think the excite- mentagrave one, and although it will be easily re- preseed. 1 have little doubt—and the government are in force for the occasion— still it is very dangerous for the future, All business is substantially suspended to-day, and the city looks more like one of the days about the time of the revolution than it has looked since that grend ovent. Ibave given <4 the complaints which I hoard the Uiouses waking in the streets, im a former letter; and, other band, it is said that the men of the ateliers rein en, the: unwilling to be sent labor in the coun: which have been provided for jonably true, to a certain ex- id in a school of idlenoss indulging in the habits rithout ony saariten cri cea em elt Albert wit! not be permitted to play into the hands of fore, with the tune, the means necessary, and other. a eae wise, which Paris affords for indulgence, it is not surpri- sing that four months training and gratification should have created 4 taste for them, which is not so easily controlled, especially if they entertain the idea that those who attempt to send them away are wasting franes while they waste sous Whether right or wrong, these ideas prevailed, and are producing their legiti- mate fruits. Iam prepared to see blood flow to-night, I think the materials for an émute are in great preparation, though the masses are not generally armed, unless with secreted weapons, ‘and they could not resist long the force of the govern- ment, who will act resolutely to maintain rand the sovereignty of the city. As I told the Swiss merchant, 1 feel no fear, and unless one goes too near the barri- cades there is no danger; yet | consider the condition of every one in Paris, with @ regular civil war, as boing different from that which existed during the revolu- tion, when there was no more danger than in one of the towns in Connectient, OBSERVER, Panis, June 24, 1848, Terrible Insurrection in Paris—Sume Particulars The insurrection in Paris is of the most grave cha- racter, and the fighting and loss of life has already equalled nearly, if not quite, that which took place | during the revolution, ‘There is an awful responsi- bility resting upon the executive, its ministers, and | even the National Assembly, It is not possible now } to disouss the right ; but the future must deal with I that, The present state of affairs amounta to civid | war, and the people are terribly exasperated. Oh how different is the scene now fror the revolution ! ‘Thon they fought for liberty, but without any great exhibition of exasperation and anger; but now the | sad picture is presented of men and women oxcited to frenzy, fouming with anger and passion, raging like wild animals, almost, ruxning the streets, carrying their flegs, and exciting their friends to battie, aud to the use of every means of warfare. That thia will re- sult in an entire new organisation oft (he uembers of the executive, and cause the expulsion of many of the present number, I haye'no doubt. But the strife is not jet finished. The dead aud the wounded are being carried to their resting places ; more than one hun. dred and fifty of the latter having been carried to one hospital last evening at an early hour, And why speculate on results’? It is difficult to obtain au- thentic accounts. Paris is too large for any one ee to see much of what takes place ; and the war is raging in so many paits, aud bursts out too suddenly to admit of going into the very midst of it, as I did before, during the revolution, with perfect impunity. The fire is from the doors, the windows, the passage ways, from behind the barricades, which are raved in hundreds, and every place, private and public, which affords an advantage ; and all persons are, therefore, alike exposed, who place themselves upon the theatre of the war, which is principally in the part of the city which is east, of the Place de la Concorde, Port Sv. Denis; and a circumference around it for a’ mile and more on every side, extending quite to the Bastilo, is the principal seat of the struggle and carnage, From the most authentic information I can obtain, it appears that at nine o'clock, and until hilf. past, all was calm, and the circulation free. That at about ten o'clock some sixty individuals arrived from different parts, at 4 signal given by several sounds from a whistle—that myn agrees they seized the horses of an omnibus, drew the coachman from his seat, turned out the passengers, and oversettidg the carriage, placod it across the Boulevard, in front of Porte St. Der issand the cry of “ur barricades’ filled the air. At this several hundreds and theusands rushed from the allies, the boutiques. aud all parts, to assist in raising the barricades. Following them were men, well armed, anda large number of boys, from fifteen to eighteen, with drawn swords in their hands. ‘The men were drese.d in Llouses, with a handkerchief round their waists,in the form of a band fastening a cartridye d into groups of twelve to fifteen men, they themselves upon the omnibuses of St. carts of water carriers, and some gentlemen's private carriages, The horses they unharnessed, aad placed the carriages beside the omalbuses, and thus they barred uP. the centre passage of the Boulevard. The first barricade was thus raised, and fifty or sixty | women took possession of it. One of them planted | upon it a tileclor.d banner, upon which was inwcribed | “ National workshop, 4 arrondissement. 5th section,” At the eame time they took from a house being erected, the stairw: and formed them, with carts, &c., intoa bar- ricade, the top of which reached above the first story, box.

At eleven o’clock yesterday, the detachment of the | National Guard commanded by Captain Veron, reach- e4 the Porte St. Denis, and took command of the place; | immediately on being informed that a large number of men were secreted in an adjoining house, he seni a force to d's'odge them, which was effected without | blood-hed. Soon after this, a battalion of the Second | Legion arrived at St. Denis, composed principally of | the companies from the faubourg Montmartre, in front of the barricades, and firing thereafter com- menced immediately; but it is not possible now to ascertain upon which side it first commenced. This continued till haif-past one, when the troops became masters of the place, not without tho loss of many killed and wounded upon both sides, The French, a6 usual, fought ably, bravely, and deliberately. Amon the Jast lett upon this barricade, were two women an one man. The women waved their fired frequently—the man fired rapidly. Resisting all persuasions, and Sontinning to excite the multitude, | one woman was shot down dead; the other then ad. vanced towsrds the troops, waving her flag, and ex. citing to battle; and resisting likewise all advice, she shared the fate of the other. A National Guard rush- ed upon the man, sword in hand. and disarmed him atthe moment he was about to fire, without caking his life. Among those who fell in this terrible con- test, on the part of the troops, was M. Avriel, the fa- | ther of five children, and four of his nearest neighbors; | and out of six National Guards, inhabiting the house in the faubourg Montmartre, No. 10,one only returned without being badly wounded. One had both arms penetrated by the came ball. At three o'clock a batta- ion of the Guards Mobile deseynded the Boulevards, and the population chased them vigorously along the streets; and after them soon came many general offi- cers, and their sides-de-camp, forcing thoir way throngh the multitude, which had then become very compact, the curious and the anxious having attended , in immense masses. After them came a squadron of dragoons and a regiment of light infantry, who were equally cheered by the spectators, While the troops were engaged at St. Denis, they were fired upon froin the windows and houses allaround the barricades, At Porte St. Martin, the masses erected immense and gigantic barricades; the men who defended them made all the passengers stop and help raise them, by digging up the pavements and transporting them to the barricades, Upon these barricades, five. women, one of whom was dressed in mourning, placed thom- selves, with each a drawn sword in her hand; and ona waved the flag from her position; men rushed to the surrounding stores, and demanded arms, and when they were refused, they broke iaand seized them. At this moment, all the shops and stores, from the Bas- tile to the Rue de la Chaussée d’Antin, were instantly closed, and all the doors and alleys barred and strengthene); immense masees of men and women la- bored assiducusly in raising barricades, without exhi- biting any other emotion except that of great resolu- tion, irritation. and sometimes fury. A description, faint and imperfect. of the proceedings, at these two Places, will afford somo iden of similar operations which were, at the same moment, going forward in every part of the eastern part of the city, on both sides of the Seine. The government invested General Ca- | we with full command of the army and Garde mate wnd Mobile, General Clement Thomas took the command of the guards in the early part of the day, as his pincehad not been filled, but being disabled | by two grievous wounds, Bedeau took his place, who, | sharing the seme fate, the whole command has been | invested in the Minister of War, At the Bastile and St Antoine the fighting has been terribly bloody; and Jast evening, at eleven o'clock, it was estimated that the killed and wounded amounted to one thousand — a great number of offlcers ainong the number; but the government were in possession of all the ‘principal Places during the night.
