McMahon Crashing Oat the Rebellions Rede-Famine Fighting for the Ver? sailles Government-Bravery of the Regular Troops at the Bridge of Nm. Illy-The Collapse of the Insurrection Imminent. PARIS, April 7. The 'fighting i? terribie. The Nationals on Thursday night reoccupied the barricade at Neuilly and lt was to-day fiercely attacked by batteries of the Versailles army. The Nation als defended their positions with mitrailleurs which bad been mounted on the barricade, There was a perfect rain of shells from the Versailles army until half-past four in the afternoon, when it became apparent that a direct assault was intended by government forces. The movement proved a feint, how? ever, for instead of following lt up, the Ver? sailles troops advanced upon both the right and left flanks of the barricades. There was for autour a rapid and effective fire of mus? ketry, " and then the fighting increas? ing in intensity, the committee of hostili? ty advanced two fresh battalions of Infantry, supported by eight guns. Crowds of women and children were in a dangerous position near the Arche de Triomphe,watching with the utmost anxiety the charges and scenes of the battle field. The fire of the ar? tillery hos up to this time spared the enceinte. The Nationals resist the advances of the As semblists with determination, and will defend every inch ol the streets should the Assem? blies succeed m entering the city.. There is a strong concentration of Nationals In the Place Vendome. Many pieces of artillery are In the court yard of the Palais Boyal, and In front of the Church of the Madeleine. The utmost bitterness towards the Versailles Gov? ernment pervades the public mind. VERSAILLES, April 8. The Communists continue the reign of ter? ror in Paris and neighborhood. Indignities heaped upon religion have shocked all the de? cent portion ol the community. There is a war against priests, and it is not safe for one to be Been In Paris. All nopes are In McMahon. The government troops maintain the positions captured from the Insurgents yesterday. No new attack bas been ruarle by either party, and there is a strong.desire amone the more sub? stantial citizens to set Paris again reoccupied by the Germans. The loss in battles yesterday on both sides was quite as large as mentioned in previous dlspatohes. The conduct of the government troops at the Avenue de Neuilly was most heroic. They never faltered a mo? ment during a rain of shelis and heavy firing. Their loss is great, but their success complete. The Communists since the battle have com? mitted the wildest excesses and butchered prisoners whom they held. The excitement here is Intense, and communication with Paris is kept up only with great difficulty. The following are the details of Friday's fighting : The Communists at Courbevoie were dislodged by the guns of Valerien. They ral? lied In the Avenue de Neuilly, whence they were driven by the troops behind Neuilly bridge, which they barricaded. Shells demol? ished the barricades. The Communists suffer? ed heavily in attempting to hold the bridge, and fell Into temporary disorder, but succeed? ed in extricating their artillery, and took refuge in houses on the eastern bank of the river. The troops occupied houses on the op? posite side, and a sharp fuslle.de was maintain? ed across the river. The troops pushed across the bridge, when the gnus from the ramparts swept the Avenue de Neuilly, checking pur? suit. Under cover of the rampart guns the Communists again erected barricades, but ultimately were driven beneath the ramparts. The fight was desperate. It commenced, at In the morning and lasted till sunset, when seven guns still protected the gates. The forts were silent. Picard officially announces the complete success of the government uoops after two days'"^Thursday and Friday) fighting. The government loss was heavy. General Blsson was killed. A circular from Thiers official!, confirms a government success. General Mon tanban was slightly and General Pr?ch?t seri ously wounded. The losses of the Insurgents were Immense, and the positions captured o decisive advantage.. LONDON, April tif. Advices from Paris to-day state that Ladlslas Dombraskl nae been appointed to succeed General Bergeret in command of the National Guard. The Nationals remained all of Friday night in their positions at the Bridge ol' Neuilly. A dispatch from Versailles, this evening, saysthe entire army is under command o McMahon. It has been divided into four corps, of which one, held iii. reserve, has General Vmoy at its head, while the oiher? have been ordered " in active service under command of Generals L'AGmirault, Clssey and Dubarail. Marshal MoMaJion has his head quarters at Petit Trainon. A spe'clal from Versailles to the Telegraph says the Assembllsts advanced to Porte Mall lot and hold position under the ramparts Forts d'Issy and Bicetre have ceased firing. Paris has only provisions for two clays. A col lapse of the insurrection is imminent. The National Assembly having voled an amendment to the election law that all mayors throughout France be chosen by the people, the government insisted upon having the ap? pointment of some of them placed in Its hands, Thiers even threatening to resign if that power was not confided to the govern ment. The Chamber thereupon, by the de? cision of a majority, sustained the govern ment and agreed to the appointment of mayors in all towns having over 20,000 in? habitants. NE\T ORLEANS RACES.

While in this condition he was visited | by a friend, who advised him to try PLANTATION BITTER'S as an anodyne, stomachic and tonic. "No use," Said the sick mau, despondingly ; "noth? ing will save me. I'm a gone case.'' "Pshaw r? said his friend; "you're worth forty dead men , yet ! .I'm going to doctor you now."'

It had a soothing, cheering, tran qullllzlng effect. For a week thereafter the gentleman continued to take the tonic regularly, according to the directions, and at thc end ofthat time was able to return to business in sound health, and with a clear intellect.
