Feb. 24 ’l‘he tnlnrrnatiott which we have to lay helore our readets of the events of yes terday, will he'lnuttd of great interest, both as regards home of the details and their results. By about nine o'clock in the morning. people assembled in considerable nuttt. hers. in the quarters St. Dennis and,St. Martin. and at ten o’clock they had suc ceeded in erecting barricades at the 'Porte St. Denis. in the Rue de Clerv. the Rue Neuve Saint Eustache. the Rue de Cad ran, and the Rue du Petit Carreuu. A jusillatle took place at some of these bar ricades, between the populace and the mu nicipal guards. Two young men were killed, and a municipal guard was disar med. Several municipal guards were pur~ sued to the Place du.Cairc. 'by youngmen arinetl with sticks. The guards fired and wounded several persons. A woman, the relative pot a tradesmen. was. we under stand. lulled on the_ spot. lAccording to the Patric. the ollicer of a platoon of the National Guard. who was on the place, was so indignant. that he cried: "To arms!” whereupon the Monicipal Guard beat a retreat.- Two hours later. one at our reporters passed through the Place du Cairo. It was then perlectly calm—in tact. nota soul was tube seen except three National Guards in the Passage du Cairo. At the Porte St. Denis, the troops char ged the people, and the barricade in the Rue Cadran. at the entrance to the Rue Montmartte. was attacked by. the Munici pal Guard. who fired on the mob. where by a child was killed. and two workmen and three women were. it is said serious ly wounded.

M. Cretnieux. the deputy. went along the Quni du Lou vre to the Chamber of Deputies, followed by 400 National Guards,in uniform. with out arms. In the morning, a post of the Municipal Guard, in the Rue Mauconseil. was car— -Iried by [the people. Soon after the Ma nicipal Guards succeeded in retaking it: but, the people subsequently attacked it with renewed order. and succeeded in a gain gelling possession of it. . During the whole day, a large crowd was assembled in the vicinity of the Min istry of Foreign Affairs. They cried out incessantly “ Down with Guizot! Long live Reform!” A strong forceiof the National Guard occupied the Arcades and Rue de Rivoli during the day. A large crowd was as sembled there, and it amused itself in shouting. 'Long live the National Guard‘.’ In the course of the afternoon the mob attacked a body of the Municipal Guard. which. was stationed under a gateway in a street 'in the Marnie, and a small number of National Guards having come up. as sistcd. as it was asserted, in disarming them. About {our o’clock. the iottlligence that the ministry had given in its resignation begun to be generally known. It was re ceived by every demonstration"of antis fnction. Even a large crowd of Well-dres sed perlonS, on the Boulevards, lcolified theirjoy by ahouting " Vire la Reformef” At about five o’clock. the mob made an attack on the guard house on the Boule vard Benne‘Nouville, “here some pris oners were confined. ltsucreeded in dis arming the soldiers who occu pied the post, and in releasing the prisoners. All the Windows of the guard-house were smash ed. The National Guard also released, some prisoners who were confined in the Marie ol theethird arrondissement. The Paine announces that as a strong piquet of the National Guard was passing belore the lmprimiere Royalo. followed by as numerous crowd shaming " Long live ‘ Reform! LOfifi‘"Ve_4hC National Guard!” 2 detachment of‘the Municipal ‘ Guard fired on them and wounded seven. 1 Great exasperation was produced by this; but it was somewhat calmed down when lhe mob learned the downfall of the Gui zot ministry. . .. At about seven o’clock, an immense crowd. consisting almost exclusively ul persons ofthe working classes. many ol them verv young. descended the Boule vards. They were headed by men hear ing blazing torches. They sang the new lavorite song. beginning " Mourir pour In patric. C‘csl lo sort. le plus boon. to plus digno d'envio." Or it would be more correct to any that they sang only those two lines. for they rarely got beyond thrm, repeating them over and over again. At intervals, how ever, they changed the rel'rnin, by shout. mg with all the force of Ihelrluuge. 'Duwn with Guizot! Down with Gulzutl 0n reaching the Ministry of Foreign‘ Affairs, they found assembled very strong forces of infantry and drngoons, which oc cupied the whole width M the boulevards, with the exception of ihe pavement near the Rue Bane du Rampart. Some per aons expected to see the mob come into collision with the troops. but instead a! that the torclrbearers filed off on the pave~ ment. shouting "Vive In liggiel Vive in ligrie!” and‘ lhey .were followed by all their large train. . After having passed the soldiers. the crowd raised a terrific shoutul; ”Down with Guizot l” after which. having lorm ed theniselires into something like order, hey muck up lhe Hernal “ Mourir pour a patrie !” and continued to bawl it un il theyrcnched lhg church of the Made- line. There a large detachment ot the National Guard was stationed. The. com mandant on seeing the mob. went to the lenders 0! it. recommending them to ex tinguish their torches and be orderly.— The torch bearers immediately. complied with the request-“nod a thousand 'voicea shouted "Long live the National Guard.” The mob then cried 1' To Duchatel." and wént along the Rue Roynle with appar ently the intention ,of paying a visit to the Minister of the Interior; . In lhé Rue St. Honore’ihere was also an immense crov'vd', Whicb'ulso sung as one man 'Mourir pour la patria!’ varied alteumtely with'the 'Allous. enlnns‘de la' patiie!’ and 'Aux ‘ armes citoyensl. of: lhe 'Mnraeilles.’ -onv'nscending the Rue St. anoro lheylell in' wiih n‘detwhniem of National Guards andofniregimontvuf lhe line ; wllcteupou a thousand voices cried.

Banth of 500 to 1.500 men and boys. went about crying ”WW [(1 reforme,” and singing the Marseillaiae; “Wk-on being met by the troops. they di vuled to let them' pass; and. as soon as they had passed. repeated their cries and their song. Towards half-past six o’clock an illumination was spoken of. and many persons lighted up spontaneously. The lillumination. of course. became more gen-l ‘eral when the populace in large numbers went through the streets. calling“litzhl up.” Numerous bands alone. or follow: ing detachments of national ~ guards. Went about shouting "Viva la Roi.” "Viva la rdorme.” and Singing: the Marseillaiae.- On many of the points where barricades had been erected. and the people were tesisting the troops, they ceased resistance when they heard the news of the resigna tion of the ministers. and the troops retir ed; but we hear "that at other points the people were less reasonable; and. between nine and ten o'clock in the evening. a large crowd from one of the laubourgn ar» rived opposite the hotel of the Ministry for Foreign Afiairs,»and some shots-were fired at the hotel. ' The national guard mustered rather strong yesterday. and. when the news of the resignation of the ministry was known. a great number more who had refused to turn out made their appearance. Al 11 o’clock. Ihete was no aclunl dis turbance in the Rue St. Denis. the Rue St. Mattin. and that neighborhood. and the troops were all withdrawn. But the peo ple were busily engaged in constructing a formidable barricade near the Ports. They had turned 'up a gram pan of the foot pave ment. had seized some carts, broken down some iron railings. and, in fact. possessed themselves of almost everylhing which it was possible In remove. The difficulty of removing some of the stones was consider able, but the mob enlivened their labor with reileralcd shouts of “down with Guizofl" [n the Rue Mantmallro a barricade was beingprecled near the hotel of Baron De- lestert. a short distance from the Boule vard. 'The pavement was there dug up— tho railing in front of the hotel was bro ken ltown. and several hack cubs were seized. At the entrance into the feubourg Montmartre from the bouleyard. the mob was also engaged in éonstructing é barri cade. 'Surpriae was expressed at all the troops being withdrawn; but it was said that they were busily engaged-near the ho tel ol’ the 'Mtnietry of Foreign Aflair’t‘z. and the noise of’lrequent fusilades confirmed that statement. The mob seemed I'o’lera‘ bly good bummed; for several of them p - litely advised our reporter to take the by atreets tn prelerence 'to the boulevards. eta- ng lhal there wa's danger in panning along 1e latter. Many persons were walking up and down the boulevards. armed with muskets and clohs.’ The only armed force us saw was a patrol of the nationalguerd, which was greeted by. the mob with cries of “Viva la garde nationals!" A num bur ol boys amused themselves with smash ing the gas lamps. The guard house of the Boulevarde Boone-Nonvelle had been abandoned by the troops. and the mob was occupied tn pulling every thing to pieces in the interior. breaking down the iron rai ling. &c. * It is with the deepest regret that we an nounce (twelve o’clock at night) that the 14th regiment-of-tlte-hnc. stationed in front of the hotel dcs Afl'aires Estrangeres, fired lto-night on a numerous group of young l men who were passing with some national guards at their head. and killed a consider able number or them. besides wounding many others. The event caused the grea test excitement. particularly at a later hour of the night, when some of the dead bodies (at least twenty, it was said) were carried in a wagon along the boulevard toward the Baetile. Several barricades were im mediately thrown up in the Rue du Fau bourg Moutmartre, the Rue Montmartre, and other streets close to the Boulevards. Some cabriolets._ tre s,- l'ba’rrels. and other articles were also llufig together across the Boulevard dee ltaltens. so as to form akind ol barricade; but the pavement had not been torn up as in other places mentioned.

All this 1 any you may know. for it is not a difficult matter to learn the facts thus far from the plain Iclter ui the law, and you know, for l have seen you state. hat 'fignoranco of the law oxcuseth no one." to which I have learned enough to add that some constructions ol the law ought to excuse theignorance of any one.

The London Times. uses a paper weighing ninety pounds to the ream. Its regular daily edition is about‘29,ooo'c’op its, and it, therefore, consumes upon-this 5.437%t pounds of paper per day.
