At two o'clock in the morning, Barthelemy de St. Hilaire, in the name of the Commission, sent the captain of the National Guard to carry an order to General Cavaignac. The order was not executed. The Commission during the day demanded of the General the reason. Cavaignac, disposed to equivo- cate, threw the blame on General Fouche, a person who then labored under a species of disgrace. Fouche earnestly de- fended himself. Various discussions passed between the Commission, Cavaignac and the Asse...mbly, which need not be narrated. The result of all these agitations was, that at length Pascal Duprat, who was the leader of the Cavaignac OF NAPOLEON III. 231 faction in the Assembly, ascended the tribune, and demanded in loud and violent terms that the Assembly pass a decree to the effect that Paris is in a state of siege, and that a dictato- rial power be concentrated in the sole hands of General Ca- vaignac. Lagrange and other deputies protested against Buch a sacrifice of the liberties of the nation.
