The struggle with this party lasted, with varying fortune, for no less a period than fifteen years, and was only terminated in 1555, after a somewhat ridiculous émeute in the streets. Perrin and others, driven from the city, were executed in effigy; and the reformer's authority from this date was confirmed into an absolute supremacy.
Violent Act committed on a Man at Prayer in the Mosque. Extent of European Literature known at Ghat. Continue unwell. Ouweek's public Apology. Dances of the Slaves. A Saharan Emeute. Arrival of Caravans. Return the Visit of the Governor. Europe, a cluster of innumerable Islets. Who has most Money, Christians or Mahometans? People more used to my presence in Ghat. The Prophet of the Touaricks.
It is ludicrous describing the emeute as an event unworthy of special mention, when rewards and praises have been heaped by the Government on the heroes who distinguished themselves in the suppression of this contemptible fracas.
The Gracchan constitution, still spared in the first Sullan reform of 666, was now utterly set aside. Since the time of Gaius Gracchus the government had conceded, as it were, the right of -'emeute- to the proletariate of the capital, and bought it off by regular distributions of corn to the burgesses domiciled there; Sulla abolished these largesses.
Charles says that it was some comfort to him to have frightened them, at least; but he was so candid to me as to own that from the beginning of this emeute he could not perceive in me the least expression of fear or disquietude whatever, and that, to be sure, he did not like. The truth is, I have made up my mind to whatever shall happen.
The three succeeding years of peace granted to England interrupted only by the mad emeute of Essex, and the silly intrigues of the King of Scotland enabled Elizabeth to direct all the energies of the State, which had so immensely increased in wealth during her reign, for the subjugation of the Irish revolt.
Two things resulted; first, fury, which day by day was so embittered by the difficulty of obtaining money for daily subsistence, that it was a marvel all Paris did not revolt at once, and that the emeute was appeased; second, the Parliament, taking its stand upon this public emotion, held firm to the end in refusing to register the edict instituting the new company.
Muffet, recoiling in time to escape both rush of men and muddy water, stood shouting confirmatory orders from the platform the while. Many a mob will face the shock of charging steel and hissing lead that melts away before ridicule and squirted water. The emeute was ended long before the police arrived, and Muffet had regained some measure of his accustomed presence of mind.
I want Paris to separate itself from France, and declare against those blundering millions. I want an emeute, or rather a menacing demonstration not a premature revolution, mind. You must avoid bloodshed." "It is easy to say that beforehand; but when a crowd of men once meets in the streets of Paris "
The latter was rendered impossible by the council of the Confederation, and the few who cherished the design in the council's despite, had attempted an emeute the night previous, and were beaten and placed hors de combat. As Monahan and his retainers entered, the red face of Lefroy oozed through the bench curtains, and followed by the pale Moore, "the court was seated."
