4th Complementary day, sth year.
Citizen Representatives.
The executive direCtory has received the
twb me.Tages which you addressed to them
yesterday, concerning the exceptions propo
fetf to the dispositions of the law o? the 19th
Frftftidor, relative to emigrants. You will
find annexed the report which has been .nvde
on this fubjedt to the direftory by the min
ider of general police, to which the diredto
ry refers you. v
L. M. Revelliere Lepeax, President.
Legarde, Secretary General.
Report to the Executive Dirt dory.
Citizen Diredtors,
The law of the 19th Frudtidor, occafiou
ed by the dangers to which the royal con
spirators have " exposed the conditution of
the republic, bears the marks of that fpint
of grandeur and of wisdom, which has di
rected the progress of the two powers in the
late circumdances ; it has heen received
with transport throughout the republic ; the
Ftench people have received it as a solemn
pledge of the loyalty of the legifhtivebody,
and thanks be to it, hrttory will uot have a
single excess with which to reproach so re
markable an epoch.
The execution of thi3 salutary law will
deliver the republic fromitsgreated enemies,
the emigrants and turbulent prieds. • Its
dispositions are fimpie and humane ;it calls
not for the blood of men who have only
signalized their return to the territory of
the republic,' but by trouble, revolt and af
faffi.lations. It expels them only .rom a
country, to the laws of which they refufe to
submit thepifelves.
The advantages of this measure are »m
---menfe, inappreciable ; its inconveniences
light and partial.
You a(k me, citizen direftors, what are
the exceptions which it will be possible to
make to the dispositions of the 15th article
of this law. You inform me, at the fame
time, that the kgifature have proposed to
except from that article the persons men
tioned in the lid of emigrants by the admi
oidration of foreign departments, and that,
the council of five hundred have sent back to
you the petitions of two soldiers who com
plain that they have been unjudly profen
bed.
To make this circumdanee an exception,
would be to dedroy the principal law.
Doubtless well founded complaints exilt ;
doubtless some citizens, public funaionanes,
a fmsll number even of the defenders of the
country, may find themselves included in
this law ; but th<: magidrates of a great na
tion, the legators, cannot facrifice to the
intered of a few citizens that of a whole na
tion. It is this day demonstrated that the
rebel emigrants and prieits ought to be ba
niflied from the French foil, or that the
constitution and the republic must be•"pol
ed to the hazards of a civil war, all i-s
In Vain will it he fa id, that to except
f»iim this law,fijch or such a class of citizens
is not to agree to dedroy it ; exp'rience h;is
(htvtn us that wken a principle is once at
tacked, intered and malevolence know how
to profit l»y it, so as to render nu'.lthe mod j
severe law.
It is with similar exceptions that but :
lately we had nearly recalled the emigrants,
as fugitives of the Lower Rhine, as fugitives j
of Toulon, and as fugitives of the colonies. ;
Citizen Diredtors, the mod constitutional j
law is that whieh drives away emigrants •
from the republic.
How easy it is to deceive on qued/ons of.
emigration, by captious reasonings, and by
apparent authentic proofs ! Have I not re
cently made known to you the frauds prac
, tiled by a great number of emigrants,
by corruption, have got their names fubdi
tuted in the place of republican volunteers,
usurping the glorious title of defenders of
their country, and claiming the merit due
to such. How many other's, if the propos
ed exception fliould be adopted, would e
quivocate as to the spot of their residence,
and would by a thonfand pretences elude the
provisions of the law. By such an excepti
on all the emigrants would remain.
Yes, Citizen Diredtors, I hesitate not to
declare to you, that the fafety of the repub
lic depends upon the drift execution of the
law of the 19th Frudtidor.
The partizans of royalty and accomplices
of the late conspirators, are far from believ
ing themselves vanquished; already you
. know, that they affaflhiate in ftveral depart- j
ments, republican functionaries; important
communications which have lately come to
' your hmd, have developed to you the vad
plan of dellrudtion and death, which, by
the nxrafurcs of tSe 18th Frudtidor, you
1 prevented the bloody execution of; and
when, to arrest so many misfortunes and
1 crimes, the French nation contented itfelf
| by removingfrom its bosom its acknowledg
ed enemies, ii is feared to exercise this
grand act of jiiftice, becauff, by doing so,
they may the intered of a few citi
zens i The mod equitable law is that which j
contains the lead of injudice. None more
than myfelf, Citizen Diredtors can bear
witness of yourcondant solicitude to diftin
guilh the innocent from the guilty.
I have to the utmod of my power sup
ported this principle of juttice, and every
day lince the passing the law of the 18th of
Frudtider last, has been marked by the con
viction of a great number of citizens, that
either error or malevolence had enrolled on
the lid of emigrants.
As to any thing else, the legislative body
may be easy, you have in your hands, and
have already made use of the means of go
vernment which will alleviate that in which
the vigour of the law might appear rigid,
and which will prevent the innocent from
being included with the guilty.
As for my part, I must confefs to you,-I
look upon the entire execution of the law,
to be as just as it is indispensable. By it,
you cut the thread of those dark plots which
have been formed againd the public tran
quility,; by it, at length, the republic
throws off, without any effort, those who
were tearing her to pieces.
Dedroy this law, and you compromise
the fafety of the conditution, even to hesi
tate to maintain it, is a public calamity.

BUONAPARTE CENERAL Iff CHIEF.
Head-Quarter?, at PalFenano,
25th Fru<£lidor.
SOLDIERS,
We will celebrate the 1 d Vendemairc, the
epoch mod dear to the French : it will be
;; day mod celebrated in the annals of the
world.
It 's from this day that the foundation of
the Republic, the organization of a great
nation,* the call of a great nation to aftonifli
and console the world by its destinies, is
dated.
Soldiers—separated from your country
and triumphant over Europe, they were pre
paring-chains for you j you knew it—you
have spoken ; the people awaked and mark
ed out the traitors, and already they were
in irons.
You will hear, by the Proclamation of the
Executive Diredtory what the private ene
mies of the soldiery, and particularly of the
divisions of the army of Italy, were con
spiring. That preference does us honor—
the hatred of Traitors, Tyrants and Slaves
will be in hidory qur best title to glory and
immortality.
We return thanks to the courage of the F;rd
Magidrates of the Republic, to the aimies
of the Sambre and Meufe and of tht Interi
or, to the patriots, to the representatives
who have remained faithful to the dediny of
France ; —they have done by one blow what
we have been doing for the country thef» fix
years.

LONDON, Oclob?r 2.
Mr. Vick did not carry dispatches to
France as was so industriously reported on
Friday night j but carried papers for lord
Grenville in the usual way in which that no
ble Lord tranfadts the public bulinefs. No
proposition has been made to the French ;
and it is expedted that a date paper, or a
collection of paptrs, will speedily be made
public, giving an account of the conduCt of
the negotiation at Lisle. The principal a
gents have been daily employed in the pre
paration of this maniftdo for some time pad.
Camille Jordan is said to have been im
-1 prisoned at Middlebourg soon after his ar
■ rival in Holland. Suard, editor of the
; Nonvellc Politiques, Padoret, and Boiffy
rd'Aitgias are arrived in Switzerland.
October 3.
Ycftcrday evening a French fog ef trace
arrived at Dover, by'which a M. Ivfetiue,
a French courier, brought a dispatch from
the commiffioncrs of the directory, ad4re(Ted
to lord Mai me (bury. This difpatcli was
instantly sent off by a fpe«ial meffenjjer to
London, where it arrived at two o'clock
this morning. We cannot take upon U3
to state the nature? of this communication.
It may be merely the answer of the com
miflioners -to tl»e- Ittter written by lord
Malmefbviry, which Ins been so much the |
fubjedt of discussion ; but to which minis
ters have inid, they expefled no favorable
answer. Tliis d.iy will prove to us, whe
ther the French diredtory have relaxed from
tn<sir demands or not. It (hall be our study
to procure the bell informatian for our rea
ders on a matter so truly interesting to them.
At the fame time a Danffti-' arrived
with passengers, and by this we have
Paris journals up to Friday hit the
inft. ' They do not j contain any interesting
news. Nothing decisive has occurred at
Udine. The armies remain in the fame po
rtions, and though there appears to be
some alarm of commotion in the provinces,
it is feeble and unsupported.
No account is yet given of the new Re
public on the left bank of the Rhine, ex
cept what the Journals have received like
our elves through the German prints, and
it seems to pass over, as st common event,
unworthy of occupying a place in the pub
lic mind.
The escort of the Deputies, under sum
mary judgment of transportation arrived at
Rochfort on the 21 ft of Sept. they were em
barked the fame day at noon, and the wind
being favorable they were expedted in a few
hours to be out of fight.—Thus the execra
ble sentence of these men, without trial, is
carried into effect, and the wretched imita
tors of their tyranny in every country of the
world, will have to quote th'eir example of
injustice for the persecution of»the men
whose opinions they dread. Whether these
men were guilty or innocent i« foreign to
the queflion. It is only by trial that Jus
tice could be fatisficd. [Morn. Chrtn.~]
La Fayette was liberated Aug. 27. Pre
vious to which the Emperor asked of him a
declaration.—The items of the demand may
be conceived from the following, which was
the effedt:
DECLARATION of GEN. LA FAY
ETTE,
Dated Olmutz, Aug. 26, 1797.
The commiflion with which the marquis
de Chaftcller is intrusted, appears to relate
to three points s
1. His imperial Majesty wishes to afeer
tain the true state of our situation at Olmutz
—I am not disposed toprefer any complaint
upon the fubjedt ; the detailed circumstan
ces refpedting it may be found in the letters,
reeeived or sent back, which were tranfmit
tedby my wife to the Auftriangovernment;
and if his imperial majesty is »ot {satisfied
by reading over the orders sent in his name
from Vienna, I am willing to give the mar
quis de Chafteller any information he may
think proper to desire.
2. His majesty the Emperor and King,
wishes to be assured that, upon my release, I
(hall immediately set * out for America.—l
have frequently fignified this to have beer,
my intentioa. But, as an answer, onderthe
present circumstances, might seem to admit
the right of exadting such a condition, I do
not judge it proper to comply with this de
mand.
3. His majesty the Emperor and King,
does me the honor to fignify to me that the
principles which I profefs, being incompat
ible with the security of the Austrian gov
ernment, it is his pleasure that T (hould npt
re-enter his dominions without his fpeeial
permifiion—l have duties from which lam
not at liberty to withdraw myfelf. I am un
der obligations of duty to the United States
—above all, I am under obligations of duty
to France, and I can coutradt no engage
ment inconfiflent with those rights which
my country holds over me. With these ex
ceptions, I can assure the general marquis de
Chafteller, tKat it is my invariable resoluti
on never to set foot on any territory, fub
jedt to his majesty the King of Bohemia and
Hungary ; consequently I, the underfign
cd, engage myfelf to his majesty the Empe
ror and King, never, at any time, to enter
into any of his hereditary dominions, with
out having firft obtained his fpeeial permis
sion, provided this engagement is not under
fteod to contravene the right my country
holds over me.
(Signed) La Fayette.
The Diredtory invited General La
Fayette, to return to France, and this invi
tation has been renewed since the late revo
lution. He will no doubt accept the invi
tation, and go to Paris, to acknowledge the
obligations that he is under for the inter
ference of the Diredtory is his favour,j but
we understand he is going to Spa.or Aix-la-
Chapelle to take the waters for the recovery
of his health.
The Orrington, American Indiaman,
was attacked in the Britilh Channel, by a
French Privateer. She had means of de
fence and used them. The privateer struck
to her ; when (he was bid to sheer off, but
to be more careful forthe future of meddling
with Americans.

Ex'irad of a letter from'a gentleman in Hol
land, to his friend in this city, dated Sep
tember 18.
" The two envoys from the southern
and middle pans of the United States ar
rived here to day from the Hague, at which
place they had waited a fortnight for the
arrival of Mr. Gerry ; they are now on their
way to Paris, hoping to be joined by that
gentleman either on their route, or soon af
ter their arrival at that city.
" Three of diredtory, viz. Rcveilliere Le
peaux, Barras, and Rubel,by means of the
armies, (who were induced by mifreprefen
tationa to believe that the legislature were
concerned in a plot for the re-eftablilhment
of royalty in France) have seized one of the
other members of the diredtory, Barthele
my. Carnot, the remaising director would
slave been seized also, had be not made his
escape ; fifty four members of the legisla
ture have been seized also—the great gene
ral Pichegru is among these.
" In effedting this revolution the consti
tution has not been in the least regarded ;
the diredtory sure of the support of the ar
mies, have trampled it under foot, arvd yet
Have had the address to make those armies
believe, that it was the only way to pre
serve the conftitHtion.
"If you will .read the 69th article of the
French constitution, which forbids the
marching of troops within twelve leagues of
the feat of the legislature, you will fee how
that has been violated.
" After the feiznre of these men, an ac
cusation against them was sent to the rem
nant of the legislature, assembled in a haity
and unconstitutional manner, and without
being heard dr fuffercd to appear in their
own defence, were sentenced to banilhment
(where the diredtory pleafed)—by that le
gislature, the constitution has expressly for
bidden to pronounce any greater punilh
ment shan reprimand, arrest during eight
days, and confinement during three days.—
Wny not fend them before that court ex
pressly pointed out by the constitution
their trial ? it could not be doubted hut
that this court would also have been fuffi
ciently overawed to pronounce the will of
the diredtory. But why not fuffer them to
be heard before the legislature ? that pros
trate legislature which returned thanks for
its own humiliation. The fadt is, the accu
sation was supported by such flimfy teftimo
py, they were afraid the appearance of these
men would (hake it off. It does not ap
pear that testimony was produced against
any but Pichegru ; and as he is mod fear
ed, that against him is produced in full
length : it is a conversation which is said to
have passed between Pichegru and an emi
'gjant, while Pichegru was at the head of his
army. This emigrant has told it to a se
cond, who told it to a third, and this third
emigrant is said to have put it in writing
more than a year after he had heard it—
and this writing is said to have been found
by Buonaparte, (who is an inveterate ene
my of Pichegru Y) To the firft Pichegru
is made to unlofom hiinfelf in his firfft conver
sation, without having ever before'feen him,
and without his being able to advance any
thing, to prove he was not a'fpy from the
Jacobins, to whom this general is extreme
ly odious, but who merely told him that he
came from Conde. The conversation was
relative to a restoration of royalty in France,
and Pichegru for a stipulated price was to
proclaim it at the head of his army.
" Would you as a magistrate have receiv
ed this as testimony on the trial of a warrant
for a (hilling.
" But the plan is said to have failed, be
cause Pichegru wished toaffociate in the plan
the Auftruns, and Conde objedted to this,
becaufc the Auftrians by this means wo ild
have a (hare of the honor of effecting the
counter-rcvahlticn. Would Conde have re
