The communications of the insurgents between thé two banks of the river were maintained by| and the Bridge of St. Michael.

The eastern quarters, comprising the faubourgs St. Antoine, du 'l'emple, Meu- ilmoutant, and Pepincourt were the last subdued. The jlast bank took refuge in the celebrated cemetery of Pere ia Chaise, but the Garde Mobile hunted them even from this sanctuary, and they were scattered in the neighbouring fields. On Tuesday the: insurrection was definitively queiled. The loss of life in this most unexampled conflict has been terrific. We are afraid that the predominating loss will be found to be far greater on the side of the soldiery than of the insurgents. No fewer than fourteen cae officers have been put hors de combat, a greater Joss than in the most splendid engagements of Napoleon. Amongst those who fell are General Negrier and Gen- -erals Deart and Brea; Generals Charbonnel and Re- nault, and others, were severely wounded.

Lamartine rode with the staff of Cavaignac through Paris to quell the insurrection ; but it was evident that nothing but the power of arms could compel the insur- gents to yield. ‘The Government forces were divided into three divisions ; and large masses of troops were brought to bear with artillery upon the positions of the insurgents ; but still Friday passed and the insurrection had evidently gathered strength. On Saturday the National Assembly declared itself in permanence, and Paris was placed ina state of seige. ‘I'he Executive power was delegated absolutely to General Cayaignac ; and at balfpast ten the members of the Executive Go-| pointed to try suchas were found with arms in thew most touching death is that of the Archbishop of Pans.
