ParissMarch 21, 1871, There ia at last a glimmer of light through the cloud that covers Paris, For four days there nas been as complete a reign of terror in Paris as ever there was in the days when the guillotine stood in the Place de la Concorde. The atrocious slaughters in the garden im the Rue de Kosters gave a fearful glimpse of the temper of the men who held armed and absolute possession of all authority in the city; and though the murders did not continue there was €n impression on every mind that there was still a pent-up fury to explode, and what form the explo- sion might take was a sombre imagination that did not terrify men the less because they kept It to themselves. Moreover, THE SHADOW OF THE OLD TERROR is still over the history of Paris, and in that shadow people may sketoh any outline of horrors and be sure Rot togo beyond what ts proven to be possible. dust as the slanghters of the coup d’vtatin 1852 put the people down at one stroke by @ demonstra- tion of resolute purpose, so the butcheries of the two generais gave the Central Committee an absolute authority, and crowds looked on in quiet consterna- tion at the continua! arrests of men in the street by the oznaiiie, clad in the uniform of the National Guard, It was @ daily occurrence tor men who gathered in little accidental groups on the Boule. vard, discussing THE TOPICS OF THE HOUR, to differ in opinion, and from every one of these dif. ferences of opinion some arrest was sure to take place, made by the men of the National Guard who always stood handy. And it seemed at the time these arrests were made that an arrest was only the first step of a murder—that it was to be regu- larly followed by a trial in some ont of the way Place by an unknown council of ten, aud a sudden execution in the corner of a gardeu— A SHORT SURIFT at the hands of half a dozen drunken National Guards (for the instruments of the new tyranny are constantly kept plied to their utmost capacity with wine, brandy and absinthe), - THE POWER OF THE INSURGEN: Incredible as it may seem pI apered to be getting used to this. Insurteetfon was for the mo- ment fairly instalied in power, and such is the culti- vated readings’ ef the people to accommodate ‘the iden changes of government that this. fe might nave been judged of vo -Wfiportance whaiever to nine-tenths of the popaia- tiomy since it produced so little apparent difference in the aspect of far the greater part of the city. It seemed like a city ablaze witn political excitement and careless what might come next, From te Piace de la Concorde to the Arc de Triomphe, alon; the whole ieagth of the Champs Elysées oue coui see the same Paris that he might see on any day of the most profound peace, and on Sunday, whed half the world outside of Paris was SUUDPERING WITH HORROR at the first nows of the frightful murder of Generals Clement Thomas sud Lecomte, Punch and Juay yere as lively as everon the sunshiny promenade, the dancing dogs cut their capers to the more than ordinary deiight of the spectators, and gay crowds circulated with all the satisfaction of complete eu- joyment. In fact, the appearance was that the last revolution was incapable of making on the public mind any other unpression than such as disappears with @ casual explostoa of petulent impauence, THE APATHY that necessarily follows upon bad government and frequently repeated revolution had fallen upon the people when they saw tie unspeakabie incapacii of tbe Thiers government, which had fanned to dame a spark that mignt have been trodden out by @ single heel. DOWN WITH THE REDS. At three o’clock this aiternoon there was another *pontaneous expression Of the popular will against the insurrection—an expression which was caught up by the people as the exact utterance of every honest man’s thonght, and thus became ina littie while a great demonstration. Some few huadreds of people assembied on the Boulevard des Italiens, raised @ banber in the nam: of order and moved along the street bearing it above them. They were joined vy every decent man they met. They had hit the real sense of Parix, This march wasin @ moment accepted a8 a peaceable, bloodless, but unmistakable mens Of declaring the generai hostility to the dom!- nation of the insurrectiunary committee, It moved to the Piace de ia Bourse, and that wide square was filled with the dense crowd to which the few hun- dreds had swollen. Every man was animated by the same purpose, and the cries uttered were all of one character, In the face of tais Immense mass of people VHB INSURRECTIONARY NATIONAL GUARDS WERE PARALYZED, and lost all power to guard the place. They raised tue butts of their muskeis in the alr—which appears to be the principal ase of muskets in Paris just vow. From the Place de la Bourse the vast thror moved to the Place Vendome, where are the SS of the National Guard. Hee also the Nationa! Guard, which was aisposed to dis- pute the advance of the crowd, lost ail semblance of purpose when it saw the proportions of the throng fore it, Indeed, this One sudden, spontaueous outburst of opposition, while it seems in great mea- sure to have quite disconcerted tte insurrection, has encouraged the whoie body of the people, and the excess Of opinion fainst the Central Commitiee, that was timid and furtive early in the day, is pow outspoken aud energetic lo the highest uegree.

Panis, Maret 22, 1871, The actual Oring began precively at thirty-five Minutes past one o'clock, and lated for fifteen minutes, The procession, with Admiral Saisset at ‘te head, at thirty-five minutes past one arrived chock up against the double line of guards at the Rue des Capucines. Bosteious language on the part of “the Men of Order,” loud bravado, cheermg at the cry 4 bas le Comi‘e, waving bandkerchiefs, hoisting hats on canes and waving the flag of France triumphantly, only determined the National Guards to stand more firmiy. PROM MY POINT OF VIEW I could see the captain in front of the ime bran- dishing his sword and the men nervously moving their Schneiders. [ can aver that the first shot was fired by one of the Guards, though others claim that this is nottrue, I not only saw the smoke and heard the report, out saw the man who discharged the gun, It was fired in the air. At this moment there was @ rapid retreat of the crowd, and when the space in front permitted all the muskets were placed atan angie of nearly forty-five acgrees and discharged in the air. Quicker dispersion a French gathering never performed. Hats were jammed and left on the pavement; coats which jestriaus bad upon thelr arms wei are in the flight, and as the great mass moved down the Rue Neuve des Capuciues, it turned of at the first corner, The Hight once begun, the men haying @ Jaw Heid, the company began free dring, and too!

Panis, March 23, 1871, Last night I made a circuit of the Boulevards and streets held by the National Guards, but found the city unusually tranquil after the exciting events of the day. All shops wore closed; it was unpessible to enter any café, and even the old American haunts, which usually display light till dawn, were ‘Ormly sealed to the thirsty. MUTTERERS HELD COUNCIL about the Piacg de lOpera; some demanding ven- geance for the blood shed in a street oddly namea the Rue de Ja Patx (t); others stopping every passer and calling, “Rendezvous at the Grand Hotel with your gun!” When a@ batallion marched by the Place de VOpera there were afew orles from men bolder than the rest, (4 bas le comtte,” but as a rule timidity reigned beyond discussion. An ex- pected demonstration by “the Men of Order" at the Bourse did not take place. BEFORE MIDNIGHT. At hal{-past ten P. M, 1 went to look after three American ladies residing in tho Rue des vapucines, and as 4 turned the corner in a cabriolet the sentt- nels shouted ‘‘Arreiez /” which the coachman did Not regard, and I was saluted with a musket ball, which did no harm other than to cause an imme- diate evacuation of the vicinity, Signal guns were fired throuzhout the night, and beyond these and arn casual pistol shots there was notuing to al: Paris. THE MORNING OF THE 23D, At seven this morning I was on the Rue dela Paix. During the night the men have been at work throwing up barr! es Of paving stones, dirt, lad- ders, omnibuses, and a complete forufication now stretches across the pavement beyond the Rue Neuve des Capucines. ‘Che outposts have been ex- tended to within twenty yards of the Place de POpera. They are in great force, but evidently from their dress belong to even a 1ess respectable portion of the National Guards than these who fired yester- day. The “good National Guards’ say that taese mén or most of them are OUTCASTS OF SOCIETY, the worst class of criminals, and ure repudiated by the industrious and honest of the corps. At the cor- ner of the Rue Neuve des Capucines ladders, carts and pieces of furniture are, at this writing, boing Utilized for @ barricade to command this vital thoroughfare. There was A DEMONSTRATION this morning by two battalions, each led by a nu- Merous staff and preceded by mounted Garivaldl. ans, on the Boulevard. The whole command went by the Rue de la Palx shouting, “Vive la Répud- uque !” and were saluted by ther comrades, All the Garde Nationaux have been reinforced with arms by the 10,000 chassepots found on the ojher-side of tue Seine, near the Orleang Railway station. THE RAILWAY TRAINS STOPPED. Every train coming into the clty4s stopped by the Scutrsi Committee, and a vigorous scratuny is made | of tue passengers, in the hope of Anding a loose general or two. THE MEN OF ORDER. Yesterday at four o'ciock the work of @ serions or ganization by * the Men of Order” began. Couriers and runners were despatched to every respectaole arrondissement, begging the citizens to come out with their arms—general headquarters at the Grand Hotel. Straightway there was an imme- dilate response, and before six P. M. 1,500 were in the court, ranged in @ hollow square, all in untform, It 13 estimated that there Gre 75,000 chassepots in tue hands of men who will suppori the National Assembly, and they will fight; and it is certala thatthe National Guards, flushed With #0 many successes, will resist to the bitter end, Attnis writing ‘the men of order” are still in the Grand Hotel, and the entrauce ts carefully led fun no one admitted without authority. { the windows and baicouies the men are display: ing (themselves. They belong mostly to tho Eighth battalion. They are determined lo move at the proper time.

In domg so he drew down an 1 applause from members of the Left, ‘The usual tumult ensued when M.

Mr. Grevy may sound his bell and break several paper knives every day, the house openly defies his authority. For the first time to-day the President endeavored to show him. self equal to the occasion. His words implicd threats that he would resign if nonorable members continued to conduct themselves in: that uproarious Manner. It took a long time, however, ‘until silence could be restored, when three more members rushed toward tue rostrum. M. Vacherat, a@stanch republican, obtained a hearing and de- clared himself satisfied with the terms of the pro- clamation, The other two, M: Milliire and Louis Biano, however, inaistea tuat the words above men- tioned should be added, A show of hands flually settled the matter in favor of the original proposi- tion, and the proclamation was ordered to be printed, It was then abont two o'clock, and the president declared the House to stand adjourned till to-mor- Tow, two o'clock, But he was again overruled. Two or three members occupied alternately the rostrum, and although the President poked his paper knife pretty freely into their backs, they tn- sisied on addressing the House. Mr. Grevy had to @ive way, aud the debate was resumed. M. Thiers spoke a second time, endeavoring to conciliate matters, He was followed by Mr. Sehoelcher, whe tnformed the House that he had been to the prison where General Chanzy 18 now confined, that fhe had finally cceeded in obtaining an interview for hiinself and & few colleagues, of the Central Republican Commitiee at the Hotel de Viile, but bh» regretted 1o add that their attempts to liberate Gen- eral Chanzy had remained fruitiess. All they were enabled to obtain was an assurance on the of the Central Committee that the General’s life was notin danger. His life was perfectly secure 80 far, and in two days the lunctious of the committee would be brought to © close—t, e., if the elections which they lave decreed take place—and then the doors of General Chanzy’s prison would be opened. This ig merely that he will be ylven up to the 10} tions * hr. Schoelcher then demanded to know whether the rumor deserved credit that Admiral Saisset had been appointed Commander in-Chief in lieu of Gen- eral @’Aurelles de Paladine, and, if so, whether the Admiral had command of all the forces—f. e,, the National Guards as wellas the troops of the line? In that case be recommended a decisive course of action. A review snould be held to-morrow at the Champs Elys-es ot all the Natioual Guards; Admiral Basset, furthermore, should appoint at once Mr. Schoelcher’s friend, Colonel Linglois, as chief of stall, and thus upwards of 200,000 men would be rallied around the government, peace would be re- stored to Panis, and consequently harmony prevat! between contending parties. The proposition of M. Schoolcher was discussed by MM. JocKkroy, Langlais | @nd several others, when M. Thiers had again to make his appearanve at therostrum. He declared that an electoral law was in course of preparation; It was inexpedient to precipitate matters; tuey could not make'a law for Paris alone; @ law regulating municipal elections througuout France would be brought up in a few days, sn All, M. Tniera said, that..was necessary was patience; if they hurried through a law suited to the views. of Patis 10 might not ve applicable tu the con- dition of provincial cities. M. Louis Blanc and M. Clemenceau followed M. Thiers. Both stated that immediate action was necessary. Paris could not and would not wait Neither of them or their friends could answer for { the consequences if the government insisted on de- laying. Nawntrat Salssct then made a powerful appeal to the House. He drew @ vivid picture ef the actual state of Paris and the dangers fraught with the situation. General Allard, as well as his wife, had beer arrested, and, entering into @ circumstantial Rarrative, shows that he narrowly escaped assassi- Dation. The Admiral and upwards of 200 proml- nent citizens are proscribed; all will be killed by the insurgents. “If you fire a singie shot,” sald the leaders to Admiral Saisset, “we commeuce with the execution of General Chauzy.” An indeseribable tumuit ensu gain, and M, Thiers, for the fourth time, 13 seen at the rostrum | ana hesucceeds in restoring for a short ime some- ; thing like order, though his words give little hope | Of satusfying the members of the iefi, - M.

With unheard-of Insolence they maintain their rights to arrest every | one opposed to teir designs ay prisoners of ; War, and deal witn them according to the ‘rules of war. M. Favre adds that in his negoitations with the Prussians he was hard pressed to consent to a disarmament of the National Guards. He strove hard to spare the Parisians this | humihatton, and, having succeeds’ in persuading Count Bismarck that the citizen soldiers were thoroughly reliable and loyal, he felt disappointed and butuiliated by the acts of violence. In fact, he accused himself almost of a participation in ‘the murder of the two Generals, which would have been prevented if le had not opposed the disarmament of the National Guards, He thought that those men had a doubie duty to perform ander the circum- stances, M. Favre, as stated above, was listened to in pro- found stience by members of tie Left, who seem to have abandoned him entirely. The tumult was again renewed on M, Favre descending from the tribune.

It was the Mosaic feast of the Passover, celebrating the sacrifice of the paschal Jamb, when all Egypt's first born were siain, that God's people might escape from bondage, The occasion of the olfertng of the lamb of the New ‘Testament was, therefore, most appropriate in Its symbolic force. The Catholic Church repeats this mystic sup- per, at which Christ satd “DO THIS IN MRMORY OF ME.’ On Wednesday, Thursday and Friday evenings in Hoiy Week the Roman Cathotics exibit their sor- row expressed in the Tenemwz—that uniqne service of — shudows, i and fears, where the candies are one by one extinguished, and the church remains in oarkness till alight is car- ried from behind the altar, speaking in unmistak- able language to the sense of the resurrection of the soul through the queuching of the Saviour’s mortal life.
