END OF THE COMMUNE OF PARIS. MONTMARTRE, May 26, 1871. French Republic. PERRIER Lieutenant-Colonel of the 69th: "HABITANTS OF MONTMARTRE, the sinister lights of Paris burned by the robbers, who dared to talk to you about fraternity and promised to regenerate France, should have made you understand what they would have done, if they had not been crushed like vipers. The Lieutenant-Colonel commanding the square relies on the dedication of each inhabitant to share with the troop the surveillance of the neighbourhood. To allay the general concern, he warns that he has had an ammonia solution prepared for oil fires, and that bottles are being placed in the various stations." - Printed in Paris, at S.
