Cologne, 25 June, 10 o’clock in the evening. The letters from Paris have again failed to arrive; the Paris newspapers which arrived today are those of the 23rd and, if the post had run regularly, should have reached us yesterday evening. Under these circumstances, the only sources at our disposal are the confused and contradictory reports of the Belgian papers and our own knowledge of Paris. We have attempted, upon this basis, to give our readers as faithful a picture as possible of the insurrection of 23 June.

There is no time for further marginal notes. Tomorrow we shall present our detailed view as well as the longer report on the session of the Paris Chamber of the 23rd.
