7542. REVOLUTION (French), Riots.—
We have had in Paris a very considerable riot,
in which about one hundred people have been
probably killed. It was the most unprovoked,
and is therefore, justly, the most unpitied catastrophe
of that kind I ever knew. Nor did the
wretches know what they wanted, except to do
mischief. It seems to have had no particular
connection with the great national question now
in agitation.—
