May 5.—The Journal Oficiel this morning contains a decree convoking the High Court of Justice for the trial of those recently arrested for participation in a plot against the life of the Empe- ror, The report of Minister Ollivier, preceding the docroo, shows the existence of a revolutionary party, having for its object the establishment of a democra tic and social republic, Its weapons are misrepre- sentation, systematic outrage, calumny,ewentes, and ansassinations, New liberties, so far from appensing, inereaso {ts frenzy, It secs tn them only facilities for increased organization and extension of its influ ence, Its existence and purposes are scarcely con- cealed in its assemblies and in the columus of the Journals which foliow its fortunes.
