Of the two other Vice-Presidents, one, General Bedrau, was at Mazas; the other, M.Daru, was under guard in his own house.

Of the three other Secretaries, two, MM.

Peapin and Lacaze, men of the Elysee, were absentees; the other, M.
Yvan, a member of the Left, was at the meeting of the Left, in the Rue Blanche, which was taking place almost at the same moment.
In the meantime an usher appeared on the steps of the Mairie, and cried out, as on the most peaceful days of the Assembly, "Representatives, to the sitting!" This usher, who belonged to the Assembly, and who had followed it, shared its fortunes throughout this day, the sequestration on the Quai d'Orsay included.
At the summons of the usher all the Representatives in the courtyard, and amongst whom was one of the Vice-Presidents, M.Vitei, went upstairs to the Hall, and the sitting was opened.
This sitting was the last which the Assembly held under regular conditions.

The Left, which, as we have seen, had on its side boldly recaptured the Legislative power, and had added to it that which circumstances required--as was the duty of Revolutionists; the Left, without a "bureau," without an usher, and without secretaries, held sittings in which the accurate and passionless record of shorthand was wanting, but which live in our memories and which History will gather up.
Two shorthand writers of the Assembly, MM.

Grosselet and Lagache, were present at the sitting at the Mairie of the Tenth Arrondissement.
