The Central Committee found in the bureau of the War-Office, and the Officiel of the Commune published on the 25th April, the following letter from the supreme commander of the artillery of the army to General Suzanne: -- "Paris, 12th December 1870. "My Dear Suzanne, --I have not found among the young auxiliaries your protege' Hetzel, but only a M. Hessel. Is it he who is meant? "Tell me frankly what you desire, and I will do it. I will attach him to my staff, where he will be bored, having nothing to do, or else I will send him to Mont Vale'rien, where he will run less risk than at Paris (this for the parents), and where ho will have the air of firing the cannons into the air, according to Noel's method. "Unbutton--your mouth, of course.--Yours, GuiOD." The Noel mentioned at that time commanded Mont Vale'rien. II.--(Page 83.) The rdle of the Central Committee during the day of the i&th March. "I would remind you that the members of the Committee had separated at about half-past three in the morning of the 17 th to the 18th. Before raising the sitting it had been decided that the meeting of the following day should take place at eleven o'clock in the evening, at a school requisitioned for the purpose in the Eue Basfroi. "Despite the lateness of the hour, nothing had transpired as to the movements which the Government had decided upon, and the Committee having only just constituted itself for the examination of its powers and the distribution of the commissions, had received no information which might have led it to suppose the imminence of the peril. Its military commission had not yet begun to work; it had taken possession of the documents, notes, and minutes of the former one, and that was all. "You know how...

Book Description
How the Prussians got Paris and the Rurals France Daring - this word sums up all the politics of the day. (St. Just's Report to the Convention) August 9, 1870 - In six days the Empire has lost three battles. Douai, Frossart, MacMahon have allowed themselves to be isolated, surprised, crushed. Alsace is lost, the Moselle laid bare. The dumb-founded Ministry has convoked the Chamber. Ollivier, in dread of a demonstration, denounces it beforehand as 'Prussian'. But since eleven in the morning an immense agitated crowd occupies the Place de la Concorde, the quays, and surrounds the Corps LĂ©gislatif. Paris is waiting for the word from the deputies of the Left. Since the announcement of the defeat they have become the only moral authority. Bourgeoisie, workingmen, all rally round them. The workshops have turned their army into the streets, and at the head of the different groups one sees men of tried energy. The Empire totters - it has now only to fall. The troops drawn up before the Corps LĂ©gislatif are greatly excited, ready to turn tail in spite of the decorated and grumbling Marshal y d'Hilliers. The people cry, 'To the frontier'. Officers answer aloud, 'Our is not here'. In the Salle des Pas Perdus well-known Republicans, the men of the clubs, who have forced their way in, roughly challenge the Imperial deputies, speak loudly of proclaiming the Republic. The pale-faced Mamelukes [originally a militia of Egyptian slave-soldiers, here used to mean the Right.] steal behind the groups. M. Thiers arrives and exclaims: 'Well, then, make your republic!' When the President, Schneider, passes to the chair, he is received with cries of 'Resign!' The deputies of the Left are surrounded by delegates from without. 'What are you waiting for? We are ready. Only show yourselves under the colonnades at the gates.' The honourable gentlemen seem confounded, stupefied. 'Are there enough of you? Is it not better to put it off till tomorrow?' There are indeed only 1 00,000 men ready. Someone arrives and tells Gambetta, 'There are several thousand of us at the Place Bourbon.' Another, the writer of this history, says, 'Make sure of the situation today, when it may 'Still. be saved. Tomorrow, having become desperate it will be forced upon you.' But these brains seem paralysed; no word escapes these gaping mouths.
