However, Messrs. j Lamartine andplarrasl, having got previous intelligence of the plot, circumvented iheirdesignsj The Na. tioital Guards as web aslhe Guard Mobile were called out, s the critical state of things, which ihrHlfiued complete reign ot terror, furnished the? Provisional Government with the pretence to military display. ! All "classes now deeming the. lately ed irbons of the line as defenders i - - i and property, a couple of regirrients were brought into Paris. Cannon, for the first time sincej the revolution, were placed before the Ho. teltld Ville of the National Guards of Paris. Xo we r than-one hundred and two thousand men assembled at the quays and boulevards, joined by forty thousand of the Boulien of sub urbs.! To these were added twenty thousand of lhe Guards Mobile,, and this body, between which and the National Guards sonie jealousy haq previously existed, fraternized as they pass- i ed each other, and their common difficulties wele buried in oblivion. Lamartine has proposed an offensive and de. fenfive alliance between the French and the Swiss Republics. Thie financial crisis in Paris was apparently subMdmg, though business and trade were much depressed. The Duke and Dutchess of Montpensier have been -banished from Spain. The Rothschilds had declined to take the new Prussian loan. The Prussian Diet has been dissolved in a most undignified manner. The Prussian troops had passed into Den mark and in a skirmish, the Danes wero de-feated. Alii incendiary insurrection had taken place in tho kingdom of Saxony, which has not yet been put down. The Pacha of Egypt has hung a deputation frota a large meeting, who had been appointed to Uyf before him the complaints of the people. There is very distressing news from the vi!. lag of Cassel, in Germr.iry. The Croats (a body bf the Austrian soldiers) had, it is said, formed a cordon round the village and set fire to if, and two thousand of the inhabitants perish ed Jtuiid the flames. The shrieks of the immo lated inhabitants were heard for miles around. The accounts from Italy represent the Aus triahsto have suffered in several late conflicts The Jelimif the leadeil in this move Elected you, It! can neither Pnt the evil 1 tie uesir fli ine icauci . m-a-wMiM be Drbduced by the ilbunderstood with the troops of Sardinia and Piedmont Th has basis ofihe new Austrian Constitution been published. It is as follows : All the provinces are constituted into one body, with hhe exception of Hungary, Sclavonia, ne t ji st r j mpnt was to form a newiG)vernment, con listing of Ledru Rollin? neU Blanqui, Albert, Louis Blanc, Flocon, A rago, Ras pail, and Pierre Le Kobxl. Accordingly, on Sunday morning,-thf organ of the clubs, the "Commune de Pari,'' summoned all rcvolutionnires to meet in lhe Champs de Mars. The effect was that the boulevards and streets were crowded jvith processions making their way towards the Champ de Mars: but it was not till towards two o-'-clock that the alarm was taken by the Government. At that hour the rappel be gan to beat, the shops wejre closed, and a universal panic seized upon the public. The assembly of ouvrieriijin the Champs de Mars amounted to upvi'ardsof 100.000 men. and they directed thelir steps towards the Hotel 'de Ville. Amiongst the cries were. A has Lamartine' and " A bas le Gouvernement Provisional re. lhe na tional gunrd and the garble mobile were called out, and, the critical state of things threatening a reign of terror, furnished the Government with a reason for calling in the troops of the line. A couple of regi ments were brought into; Paris ; cannon, for the first time since ithe revolution, were placed before the (Hotel de Y'l'e Of the national guards oljParis no fewer than 120,000 assembled oh the quays and boulevards, joined by 40,0f)0 of the banlieu or suburbs : to these werb added 20,000 of gardes mobiles ; and this bod)', between which and the national guards some jeal ousy had previously existed, fraternized as they passed each other, and their com mon differences were buried in oblivion. The peace of Paris was thus secured. The usual exhibition and speeches took place before the Hotel do Ville, and the cause of the communistsjsank apparently into insignificance. A counter-demonstra tion is of course threatened. In the course of the tumult at the Hotel de Ville, Cabet stigmatized Lamartine apa traitor to the republic. Lamartine withdrew, and, hav ing consulted with his colleagues, orders to arrest Cabet were issued in the course of the evening. There an be no doubt that this whole affair tended to strengthen materially the moderate party in the Pro visional Government. On the Saturday evening previous to the Sunday's demonstration high words took place between M. Iarrast and M. Ledru Rollin in the council. M. Ledru Rollin applied the opprobrious term lache, or coward, to M. Marra whom he accu sed of betraying his principals ; M. Mar- rast followed this up by n blow ; be struck Sieyenberger, and, for th,e present, the Italian M. Ledru Uollin, and the other members l-cs. i ii uivision or inn .empire euau iHu-wonld be nroduced by exercise of aacred duty, nor stop your move ment, the day on Which, perceiving yourselves jour mistakes, you would feel inclined to change in its form the exercise of that rigrt. But what can'it do, what it i ought to do, is to enlighten you aa to the consequences of your acts. Long since .the representatives of the people saved the country by proclaiming the danger of the country. In a nation like France the idea of danger can demoralize only those who have not a French heart, j The true Frenchman loves the idea of dan ger,1 which conveys to him the idea of victory. Well, then, if the country is no longer in dan ger, as in the days of our first republic if the enemy is no longer at our gates if the physi cal struggle no longerexists in ourranks there is an intellectual struggle, a moral danger, which a great moral courage and a great faith in ideus can alone conjure away. ilUizens, Jet us have that courage. Let us free n ourselves from an ill-understood physical idea, from all narrow local passions. Let us preserve ourselves from the enemies who flatter us by caressing us, in order the better to de. strny liberty, which serves as an aegis. Let us save the republic at even cost ; it still depends on us to save it without convulsion and without disruption. The above circular was received with so much disapprobation, and rendered the name of Ledhu Rollin so unpopular, that he was compelled to disavow its authenticity and de clare that it had been issued from his depart, ment without his knowledge and sanction. - The following is the reply of M. Lamartine to the deputation of workmen who Came to offer their services and their blood to the Provisional Government : 44 The only cry which is permitted to the gen erous citizens whom you represent, the only cry which the Government can accept, is I hat of 4 Vive la Republique P You regard it, citizen workmen, in the samesense as ourselvesryou, whose lot we would improve by labor and by institutions which will admit you regularly into the enjoyment of property and of instructions into all the conditions of ease, morality, enlight enment, and consolidation of democratic socie ty, hut of a society definite and practical. 44 You are not among those who wish for the expropriation of one by another ; but you are like all honest workmen real patriots, real democrats in the good sense of the word ; you are of Miat class which would, if necessary, die to defend what you do not already possess ; you arc, 1 see it in your words, of that admirable people devoted to melioration, and not to the destruction of social order. 44 Never will posterity forget the sublime proofs of good sense, the devotedness of disin- terestedneus which yon give at this glorious epoch to France and to the world.

It supposes they have the power to extend the lime of the ratification of the treaty, it 'would be impossible to have it ratified here and forwarded to Washington by the 2nd of June. The best reception the Govern ment could give the commissioners would be to see that fcbrfgress is in session to act upon what they hnve to submit to it. We do not hear of any increase of the mem bers in attendance.1 ! Fronvthe same. From the Interior. We received by the last mail a number of papers from the most important points in the interior.

A proclamation by the Prqvisional Govern ment against clubs meetitigin arms gives some countenance to th rumor. Tlfe following circular, published in Paris on Saturday, in the name of Mi Ledru Rollin, con. tributed very greatly to indispose the Parisians to countenance the Communists. Its violent tendency rendered the name 6f M. Ledru Rol lin so unpopular that he was compelled to dis avow its authenticity, and declared that it had been issued from his department without his knowledge and sanction: Bulletin de la Republique, No 16. Paris, April 15, 1848. fCitizens, we have not been able t pass from ithe rule of corrup tion to that of right in a daVv:in an hour. An hour of inspiration and heroisrn has sufficed for the people to establish the principle of truth ; but eighteen years of lies' oppose to the mle of truth obstacles which a breath of wind does not overturn. The elections, if jtljey do not produce the triumph of social truth, if they are. not the expression ot the interest o a caste, the elec- grtsso, Queretaro, the organ of the revo lutionists and anti-peace party, is violent ly opposed to the treaty. We find noth ing, however, either in that paper or in Los Debates, the ministerial organ, in confirmation of the rumor that a pronun ciamento had been got up against the Su preme Government : El Progresso say4 Ocampo, Governor of Mihoacan, has resigned his place because opposed to recognising the treaty of peace whilerthe Americans hold military posses sion of the country Adamc, the late Governor of San Luis. has been released from prison, and sent with a competent escort to Zacatecas. He made this request of Supreme Gov ernment, arguing the state o! his health and condition of his family as a reason. The Progresso concludes an article on this subject in these words: "The alliance with the enemy is complete. Senor Ad ame, for being a friend to the war, is con fined by order of the Government of his country. Senor Trias, at Chihuahua, for the same reason, is j at the disposition of the Government. What will the world say to this?" El Porvenir, at Toluca, has an article on the subject of the assembling of Con gress. It says the 15th day of April is that upon which the Congress of the Un ion should close its ordinary session ac cording to the 71st article of the Consti- tution. If the Government had succeeded within a few last days in getting the mem bers together, they could, by a motion made to that effect,' or by a petition to the President under the same article, be pro rogued for thirty da-s. But si the quorum should not be in attend ance, the editor says Congress cannot be constitutionally j convened. The Porvenir then remarks i upon the culpable remissness of the mem bers in not listening to the voice of their country, and attending to the discbarge of their duties.

Qn Sunday, the lGth of April, there was a 14 demonstration" at Paris excited by the morelviolent of the clubs, the ohiect of whtch was to overhtrovv the Provisional Government, or at least secure the exnul- i i. - -. ' .... siori theretrom of its more moderate mem- It was put down by the National Is, who mustered in sufficient num- public, will be beyond a doubt its destruction. In that case there would be but one way of safety for the people who made the barricades : to manifest a second time its will, and to ad journ the decision of a falscjiiational represen tation. Can it be that France could wish to force Paris to have recourse to this extreme, this deplorable remedy ? God forbid ! But no; France has confided to Pari S a great mission, and the French people will rtot consent to ren der that mission incompatible with the order and calm necessary for the deliberations of the constituent body. j j Paris regards itself, with just reason, as the representative of all the population of the na tional territory ! Paris is jhe advanced post of the army which combats for republican ideas : Paris is the rendezvous for all the generous de termination all the moral forces of France ; Paris will not separate its cause from that of the people, which suffers, waits, and raises its voice from one extremity of the country to the other. If anarchy works afar off, if social in fluences pervert the judgment or betray the will of the masses dispersed or misled by distance, lhe people of Paris believes itself, and declares itself to be conjointly responsible for the inte. rests of the whole nation, j On some points wealth claims its privileges! and menaces us with the affliction of, being obliged to conquer, when we should have wished only to persuade. In every part let the people of the country dis- tricts join with those of lhe towns, and let the this before unofficially.
