SPEECH
OF MkRLIN, AT HIS INSTALMENT AS ON £
OF THE DIRBCTORSjTO H ISCO L LE AGU E6.
•' Citizen l)\r:Sors,
" In the moment in which I am to
take a share in your labours, a thousand con
fufed fefitiments aiife in my wind : in or
dinary eircumftances the duties which I am
called on to exeeute are so important of them- .
selves, that it is difficult to think of thqm
without uneafiiefs. What then mtift be my
alarm, when I consider them in all the addi
tional fplendpur wliiuh you have added to
thsm.
" Flattery can, without doubt, never ap
proach the circle of, the directory ; but
when truth does you honour, he who is to be
your colleague ought to be fuffered to
I'penk it.
"In the firft moments of your high ad
ministration you found the republic in the
molt deplorable situation :—lts financial re
sources appeared entirely txhaufted ; a pa
per without any value represented the pub
lic fortune ; all the arms of induftiy were
bound ; all the channels of commerce block
ed up : some powers had been detached
from the coalition, but it still wore a for
midable appearance, and 'fcemed to have
made up, by extraordinary efforts, for the
loss of some of its leading members. Civil
war raged in the departments of the east ;
i and, io the interior, the public spirit, grad
-1 ually debased, threatened republican inftitu
. tions with almost certain ruin ; the enemies
, of the people were become their magistrates ;
: the sword of national justice had given way
. to the poniard of revenge ; the laws were
i impotent, and their organs mute ; emigrant
rebels, and men condemned to death, had
r aftually taken theii feats in the senate ; the
- emigrants reigned in the republic, and the
r republicans were forced to emigrate.
t l " Things were in this situation when you
took on your hands the leins of authority,
is and fee what is their present situation.
Commerce has resumed its aftivity, induflry
Q is again animated, and the earth has given
i- up the treasures which midruft hid buried
le in it. Abundance every where prevails in
ft our cities ; the arts again smile at their re
r- generation ; civil is extinguished ; on
ft the Rhine, on the Adige, on the banks of
i_ Oglio, our triumphant armies have every
to. where -carried with them vi&ory, and victo
n- ry has di&ated peace to the expiring coali
tion ; the fruitful feeds of liberty have been,
ty scattered over the neighbouring countries,
d their reproduction and their multiplication
ns will be your work. You hare repressed the
ve faftious, and on comparing with our former
ie troubles, the situation in which we have Ur
ns ed for the two last years, every man who .
ry has a sense of justice, even though he has
;r , not subdued his prejudices'to his real inter
h- eft, is forced to do you homage, and to a
all gree, that you have terminated the revo
lt- lution.
ce " Your triumphs, however, citizens direc
all tors, your courage, the good which you
un have done,and that which youhave attempt
ad ed to do, have all of them been nearly ren
ice dered of no avail, by the attempts of the
be conspirators whom you have overturned.—
he Oh (hame ! oh infamy ! oh accumulated
e- baseness and meanness ! The friends of
ir, kings were become the legislator? of the re
le, public ; traitors weYe engaged in dtlibera
aid tions with you ; they would have fold the
ar . honor of their country, the {nterefts of the
th- state, and the blood of all patriots to a
es, ft ranger ; and liberty and the republic would
y's soon have been at an end ; but you were at
tnt your.posts, and liberty and the republic were
ch saved. 1
ire " rwmqrtal day of the 4th of September,
-If- you will be famous among the days of the
m- French revolution ; and it is to you that
as- the whole gfory of it belongs. What, with
er- out the a (Tift allce of .the executive riireftory
the fnd its faithful representatives, driven by
oc _ violence from the tribune, defame 4by ca
-515-, lumny, and impotent even by their virtue,
u s. what, I fay, what could good citizens do in
jng oppofitiontothofefanguinary and abominable
red laws* which forbade the most pacific meet-
H g- ings, which armed against them' infamous
or eut-throats, which recalled emigrants to eve
ge, ry P art France, which deprived the pur
thc chafers of national property of their inoft
ap- legitimate acquisitions ? The legislative bo
the dy is now become republiean ; laws are come
rJth to confolcj to secure, and to encourage citi
tedi zens ; difurder, 110 aft of violence lias d. -
ac h based your viftory ;it has b<-*n pure as your
ixig intentions ; the 4th of September might
m j t have been a day of battle, it has turned out
aol, a day of rejoicing.
t. to " Honour then is due to your wisdom
pon and your courage ; honour to the repvefen
fe - tatives of the mtion,. who have felt, that
and between your ccnfe and theirs there was no
tted difference ; and honour to you, the brave
ias companions of Buonaparte and of Hoche,
a tes Angereau, and Chejin, names dear to re
:on- publicans and to liberty ; and to ,yqu« i.i
faid trepid soldiers, so worthy of the chiefs who
rnce command you, and so worthy to obey tli'ejc ;
ed ; honour to you, ye conquering republican..,
:ape virtuous ai.d proud people, you who (,ave
on, replied with so much wisdom find modera
, re _ tion to the vile calumnies of tii'ifetwfro were
any not worthy of knowing you ; you have
the ftewn yourselves calmly ttrong, and coolly
,p on confident of your power. Your eoctnirs
das have felt it : nor were you ever more terri.
? to ble to them than in that rnajeftic mcfr
and which left your energy to, be imagined,'and
aty. dispensed you from the neceflity of Iht\\.
that ing it
tas "To me, citizens directors, it. is highly
the honourable to have soon to embrace as ce'-
le in leagues those whom my country now hails
as its fayiours. It is too, particularly agree
" able to me, to recollcft the firft moments rn
„ which together we brandilhed the firft nrn s
Tiber f° r t^ie catife of liberty. Yes, from the firft
dawn of the revolution, while'one of ymi
