 ADDRESS.

 ts.Suc.-We have heard with grief the communication from your Majesty's Ministers relative to the Iamentable disturbances which have taken place in the city of Lyons. We admirethe pa triotic promptitude which has hurried the prince your son into the midst of danger, to stop the shedding of French blood, which has unfortunately alrea- ddy commenced. We hasten tc express the unanimous wishes ofthe deputies.ofH France that your majcsty's government should put the laws into full force d. gainst these deplorablc excesses. Per sonal security has been violently attack ed, order has been disregarded, the lib- crty ofindustry menaced, x the voice of tho magistrate totally disregarded. Itis necessary that these disorders should at once be put stop to by the most prompt measures, and all such'attempts repress- ed with the most decided energy. The whole of France is wounded by blow, aimed at the rights of all, in the persons of q few of her citizens, to whom s!.a owes the most sacred protection.

 aFhe measures taken by your majes- ty'sgovernment gives us confident hopes that a very short period will. elapse previously to good order being restored. ] The inseparable union between the National Guard and the troops of the line, gives confidence to all good citi- zens; and your majesty may depend up- on the cooperation of the authorities. We are happy, Sire, 10 offer to your majesty, in the name of France, the uni ted efforts of her deputies to re-esta,- fish peace wherever it may have been broken, to root out the germs of anar-a chy, to strengthen the sacred principle upon which depends the very existence ofsociety, to maintain the glorious work of the revolution of July, and secure every where strength to justice and res. pect for the laws.

 "Agreed to in the public sitting of 26th Nov. 1881.

 Ihe Kings Reply.

 Gentlcmcn-The disastrous cireum- stances which have taken place in the city of Lyons, have been source of great atfliction to me; but nothing can tend more to alleviate this regret than the sentiments which the chamber of deputies have manifested towards me, through your instrumentality. The maintenance oflegal orderis one ofmy first duties, and observe with lively satisfaction that the unanimous senti. ments of the deputies of France are in accordance with my own to maintain the instituted laws against these deplo rable outrages. The cooperation of the different powers of the State, upon which rest as much as yourselves. is the most eiiicacious means of preserving their controul and giving to my govern lnent that power whichis necessary to repress such attempts with all the ener- W :,y that France has right ,.t $; . expect expect.

 The heroic bravery of the troops of the line. and of that part Of the nation al guards at Lyons who assisted in put ting down the rioters, merits the grati- tude of their country and its with in- finite pleasure i take this opportunity of expressing my feelings with regard to their conduct.

 Fl thank your for appreciating asyou. have done the devotedness of my son in this affair, and my most sincere desire is, that he may accomplish the end of his mission, which confidently expect, and that he may contribute in bringing
