'The recent outbreak of civil strife at Marseilles, as well as in Paris, caused by the violence of the Red Republican faction, may give some interest to our Engraving of a sketch made in that important commercial seaport town, at the time when it was full of military bustle to prepare, with Lyons and all the south of France, for resistance to the German invasion. The College of the Jesuits, like some other buildings of ecclesiastical corporations and institutions of a pacific character, was occupied by the administration of the French army, and its court was encumbered with heaps of soldiers' knapsacks'.
