LOUIS NAPOLEON'S COUP D’ETAT—THE DISSOLU: TION OF THE ASSEMBLY, AND IMPRISONMENT OF MANY OF ITS MEMBERS—PARIS IN A STATE OF SIEGE—RESTORATION OF UNIVERSAL SUFFRAGE— NEW FORM OF GOVARNMENT, ETC The news from France is most important; and the af- fairs of that country have engrossed attention in Europe, to the exclusion of everything else. The long dreaded coup d'etat of Louis Napoleon has been made. The President has seized the reins of government, dissolved the Assembly, declared a state of siege, arrested the leading opponents of his pelicy, and appealed to the people. All this was done at an early hour on Tuesday the 24 inst. Preparations for it had been perfected with con- summate skill and secresy during the preceding nightp and it was completed before any ome had the least idea it was in progress, or even in contemplation. An entirely new ministry was formed during the night of Monday. Proclamations dissolving the Assembly, sppealing to the people, restoring universal suffrage, and proposing @ new system of government, were printed at a private printer's in the Elysée, and posted throughout Pari: before daylight on Tursday. Copies of these proclamations, and of circulars from the ministry and the Prefect of Police, printed im like manner, were despatched toall the provinces, announe- ing what had been done, appealing to the nation at large, and conveying stringent orders and instructions to all the officers of the gevermment througheut the county. ‘The President's proposal is the Instant restoration of universal suffrage—the instant election, by the people and the army, of a President, to hold office for ten years, supported by a council of state, and by two houses of Legislature—and that, during the few days required to complete the elections, the executive power shall remain in the hands of the President. The election is fixed to take place during the present month; andthe President promises to bow to the will of the people, whether they elect himself or any one else; and he deolares that he holds power only until the will of the people can be made known, Meantime, he demandafa preliminary vote, from both the people and the army, to declare whether they con- fide to him the executive power ad interim—the army to record their vote within forty-eight hours—the citizens being allowed « longer time. ‘The President declares himself to have been forced into this measure; and {t is ascertained that Changar- pier, La Moriciere, Thiers, and others of his opponents, had decided to demand his arrest and impeachment on the 2d inst., and were gathered, and in the very act of confirming this decision, when they were themselves arrested and conveyed to Vincennes. ‘The temporary hall used for the Assembly has been taken down by the government; and whenever members bave attempted to meet officially, they have been ordered to disperse, and arrested if they refused. Two hundred members of the Assembly had been arrested in all; many, however, were released ina few bours, But all the leaders of the cpposition are im- prieened. Many members of the Assembly have given their ad- hesion to the President—it is said as many as three hun- éred—during the first days. No organized resistance to the government was at tempted, and telegraphic reperts from the departments declare the news to have been hailed with enthusiasm by the provincial population Bubsejuently, however, partial attempts at opposition were made ia Paris; and rumors reached that city, from the provinces, hostile to the alleged unanimity of feeling in the provinces. Barricades were erected in the more turbulent quar ters of Paris, but were all broken down by the troops At one of these. two members cf the Assembly, taking prominent places, were killed im the conflict. A section of the Assembly contrived to meet together in Paris, om Taseday, and had decreed the deposition of the Piesidentand bis impeachment for high treason— ing was dispersed by the troops, and the de- ridiculed and disregarded on all hands. In addition to arrests, troops were placed im the houses of rome of the ex officers of the Assembly who were ex- empted from amongat others, that of M. Dupin, Prerident of the A y.was occupied by troops, and he Limeeif placed under a sort of durance, although not arrested but of martial law bad been proclaimed s concerned in barricades, and they ly shot without delay ip to Th euccess of the goverament seomed certain, and London advices to oe night ae from the same prospect. But new antly mixed in the peer 2. is contin mor ne Ate adic Information was indeeotibadls. ctaten that the French government bave stopped the cvroation ta. Pala pa serious fall im the tranamission of despatches by telegraph. ‘The movements of the troops are silent and firm. Buring the day, barricades have been thrown up in earnest. At half-past one o’clock this morning, an immense crowd, of about five thousand troops, moving along the Boulevards. was fired on from the neighboring passages and houses. The firing was returned by the troops; and the combat lasted for half an hour, with cannon shot and musketry, At the same time, but further down the Boulevards, a brisk firing was kept up till4 P.M. It had then nearly ceased in the neighborhood of the Boulevards, at Ti¢rres, but continued in other quarters. Full partioulars cannot be got. Nothing is certain but that this eanguinary struggle has sotually taken place. Many passers-by were injured, sad a gentleman and his daughter are reported to have been killed. At six o'clock, om the Boulevards des Italiennes, the firing had almost entirely ceased. Atseven o'clock # fight occurred in the streets, in the Quartiers St. Martinand Bt. Denis. ‘The insurrection, however, is quelled im all parts, and the troops bave returned to their barracks. ‘The barricades of the Faubourgs St. Denis and Bt. Martin, and the Boulevards, mear the Bastile, had been destroyed when the troops retired. ‘The Herald and Chroniele’s correspondents state that General Castellon, at Lyons, and General Euygier, have declared against the government; but the report is de- niedelsewhere, Btrasburg and Rheims are also said to have risen, and doubts are entertained of General Mi- rY ‘The Daily News states that General Newmeyer is marching with four regiments from the north. ‘The Times says that an attempt at an émeute at Droyer Amaud, was energetically suppressed.

Several persons were seriously injured. Shops were plundered, and Parsee women violated. No means were taken to ascertain the amount of property plundered; but its value is stated by the police authorities, and their organ, the Bombay Times, at sbout £1,000, and by other local papers to exceed £15,000.
