Paris was perfectly tranquil yesterday evening. Patrols had paraded the
streets during the previous night. Considerable excitement was reported from the provinces, however,—at Lyons, Marseilles, Bordeaux, Toulouse, Evreux, Dijon, and Mulhausen. M. Ledru-Rollin is believed to have escaped, to Belgium, or, as the latest accounts say, to England. The Ministers had demanded authority of the Assembly, and received it, to arrest and prosecute the Representatives Ledru-Rollin, Considerant, Rattier, and Boichot. A decree had been presented to the Assembly to interdict for one year all clubs and political meetings calculated to disturb public order. , A steamer arrived at Toulon on the 11th with 90 wounded soldiers, and wit's despatches from Civita Vecchia of the 9th. The wounded soldiers declare that the siege proceeded warmly, but do not speak of great success.
