fraternization of the king with the people took place; and 〃the next

day the same king betrayed; calumniated; and disgraced the people!〃

Manuel's rigmarole surpasses all that can be imagined。 〃After this

there arises in the panelings of the Louvre; at the confluence of the

civil list; another channel; which leads through the shades below to

Pétion's dungeon。 。 。 The department; in dealing a blow at the

municipality; explains how; at the banquet of the Law; it represents

the Law in the form of a crocodile; etc。〃



'13' Moniteur; XIII。 93 (session of July 9);   27 (session of July

2)。

'15' Moniteur; XIII。 224 (session of July 23)。 Two unsworn priests had

just been massacred at  Bordeaux and their heads carried through the

streets on pikes。 Ducos adds: 〃Since the executive power has put its

veto on laws repressing fanaticism; popular executions begin to be

repeated。 If the courts do not render justice; etc。〃  Ibid。; XIII。

301 (session of July 31)。



'16' Moniteur; XIII。 72 (session of July 7)。 The king's speech to the

Assembly after the Lamourette kiss。 〃I confess to you; M。 President;

that I was very anxious for the deputation to arrive; that I might

hasten to the Assembly。〃



'17' Moniteur; XIII。 313 (session of Aug。 3)。 The declaration read in

the king's name must be weighed sentence by sentence; it sums up his

conduct with perfect exactness and thus ends: 〃What  are personal

dangers to a king; from whom they would take the love of his people?

This is what affects me most。 The day will come; perhaps; when the

people will know how much I prize its welfare; how much this has

always been my concern and my first need。 What sorrows would disappear

at the slightest sign of its return!〃



'18' Moniteur; XIII。  33; 56 bis 85;  97 (sessions of July 3; 5; 6 and

municipal council of Marseilles; of the federates; of the Angers

petitioners; of the Charente volunteers; etc。 〃A hereditary monarchy

is opposed to the Rights of Man。 Pass the act of dethronement and

France is saved。 。 。 Be brave; let the sword of the law fall on a

perjured functionary and conspirator! Lafayette is the most

contemptible; the guiltiest; 。 。 。 the most infamous of the assassins

of the people;〃 etc。

The Assembly murmurs。〃  208 (July 21)。 〃Murmuring; shouts; and cries

of Down with the speaker! from the galleries。 The president calls the

house to order five times; but always fruitlessly。〃  224 (July 23)。

〃The galleries applaud; long continued murmurs are heard in the

Assembly。〃



'25' Buzot; 〃Mémoires〃 (Ed。 Dauban; 83 and 84)。 〃The majority of the

French people yearned for royalty and the constitution of 1790。 。 。 It

was at Paris particularly that this desire governed the general plan;

the discussion of it being the least feared in special conversations

and in private society。 There were only a few noble…minded; superior

men that were worthy of being republicans。 。 。 The rest desired the

constitution of 1791; and spoke of the republicans only as one speaks

of very honest maniacs。〃



'26' Duvergier; 〃Collection des lois et décrets;〃 May 29; 1792; July

15; 16; and 18; July 6…20。

of dismissal was not passed until the 12th of August; but after the

31St of July the municipality demanded it and during the following

days several Jacobin grenadiers go to the National Assembly; trample

on their bearskin hats and put on the red cap of liberty。

'30' Decree of July 2。



'31' Mortimer…Ternaux; II。 129。  Buchez et Roux; XV。 458。 According

to the report of the Minister of War; read the 30th of July; at the

evening session; 5;314 department federates left Paris between July 14

and 30。 Pétion wrote that the levy of federates then in Paris amounted

to 2;960; 〃of which 2;032 were getting ready to go to the camp at

Soissons。〃  A comparison of these figures leads to the approximate

number that I have adopted



'32' Buchez et Roux; XVI。 120; 133 (session of the Jacobins; Aug。 6)。

The federates 〃resolved to watch the Chateau; each taking a place in

the battalions respectively of the sections in which they lodge; and

depuis 1789 jusqu'à 1815;〃 I。 134。 〃The mayor; Mourdeille;〃 who had

Ternaux; II。 148 (the grenadiers numbered only 166)。  Moniteur;

XIII。 310 (session of Aug。 1)。 Address of the grenadiers:  〃They swore

on their honor that they did not draw their swords until after being

threatened for a quarter of an hour; then insulted and humiliated;

until forced to defend their lives against a troop of brigands armed

with pistols; and some of them with carbines。〃  〃 The reading of

this memorandum is often interrupted by hooting from the galleries; in

spite of the president's orders。〃  Hooting again; when they file out

of the chamber。



'36' The lack of men of action greatly embarrassed the Jacobin party。

(〃Correspondance de Mirabeau et du Comte de la Marck;2 II。 326。)

Letter of M。 de Montmorin; July 13; 1792。 On the disposition of the

people of Paris; wearied and worn out 〃to excess。〃  〃They will take no

side; either for or against the king。 。 。 They no longer stir for any

purpose; riots are wholly factitious。 This is so right that they are

obliged to bring men from the South to get them up。 Nearly all of

those who forced the gates of the Tuileries; or rather; who got inside

of them on the 20th of June; were outsiders or onlookers; got together

at the sight of such a lot of pikes and red caps; etc。 The cowards ran

at the slightest indication of presenting arms; which was done by a

portion of the national guard on the arrival of a deputation from the

National Assembly; their leaders being obliged to encourage them by

telling them that they were not to be fired at。〃

therefore; resigns (July 4; 1792)。 … Ibid。; 462 (report of Leroux;

municipal officer)。 The Paris municipal council; on the night of

August 9…10 deliberates under threats of death and the furious shouts

of the galleries。



'39' Duvergier's 〃Collection of Laws and Decrees;〃 July 4; 5…8; 11…12;

25…28。  Buchez et Roux; XVI。 250。 The section of the Theatre

Fran?ais (of which Danton is president and Chaumette and Momoro

secretaries) thus interpret the declaration of the country being in

danger。 〃After a declaration of the country being in danger by the

representatives of the people; it is natural that the people itself

should take back its sovereign supervision。〃
