Yesterday's letters from Paris state, that " Paris is in

a state of great ex- citement today, more especially in the Faubonrgs of St. Antoine and St. Marcel, the ordinary hotbeds of insurrection.

The Government organs declare that the clubs and secret societies .are in full operation every night, and that the Montagnard Members of the National Assembly are in communication with them."
