Merlin of Thionville read an ab(lra£t
of what had passed the lad decade at the
fedtion of William Tell.
Seven eighths of the afTem'oly were
paralysed by a stroke of tlie agitators,
who had prevented the reading of the
report of Robert Lyndet, and caused a
great scandal in The com
mittee of general surety knows the au
thors of this tumult.
* We remarked among them the mem
bers of the ancient revolutionary com
mittee of the fe&ion. This circum
ftaixe caused Laporte to denounce, at
a new lifl of Vendee-men and owls, the
greatest number of those who adhered
to those superior committees. . It is
there, said he, the influence of Robes
pierre operates in a manner that mult
dishonor the revolution.
Laporte proposed to demand of eve
ry public fun£tionary, an account of his
condudt on the night of 9th Thermidor :
July 27.
Freron announced, as a certain fait,
that many members of the revolution
ary committees had been united with
the commune on that night, and that
they had there taken orders, which they
have fincc erased from their records. He
wished that on that very day, the re
~cordy of the deliberations of the revolu
tionary committees Ihould be deposited
with the committee of general surety.
Bourdon of Ou; informs that this
committee has made war on the rogues
and villains, and that it had delivered
over to the criminal tribunal the whole
revolutionary committee of the feftion
of the Bonnet Rouge, as robbers 01
forgers.
Legendre excited a warm difcuflion
by denouncing nominally to the ptople
and Convention Barrere, Collot d'Her
bois. and Billaud Varennes, as confpi
ratwrs. He reproached them with hav
ing concealed from the AfTembly, the
crimes of Robefpietre, which had been
known to the Committee of Public.
Safety, for fix months, as Billaud had
said, under a pretext that they wei'e
afraid of producing a schism in the
Committee.

The Hews from the eastern Pyrennees
is a'.fo very favorable. The Spanish
General La Union has attempted to
approach Beliegarde ; but with ill fuc
ccfs. Neither the number, nor advan
tageous po fit ion of the enemy could
render tbem victorious. They were
every where reptr'fed and driven into
their entrenchments. We taken
from them 4. pieces of carmon, and
about 6 o Spaniards were 3_*ft (lain on
the field of battle. Tl.e lots on our
part was liftv one wounded .part and
slain in proportion.
We notice a trait of Valontie, born
at Liege, who saved the life of a wound
ed Republican, and bore him off on his
shoulders. This brave man was received
with fcnfibility and recompense.
It is proved by a t official return, that
instead of 400 Cannon taken before this
day from the Spaniards, the number
taken is 472, and 18,000 fnfils initead
of 15,000.
Treilhard ended his report by com
municating the pews from Marseilles.
On the sth Vendemiaire. Sept. 26
at 2 o'clock P. M. Marseilles raised the
standard of a rebellion the moll extra
ordinary. The National Convention
was outraged, and the representatives
of the People, Serres and A«guis, in
sulted and threatened. There was a
mod riotous colleftiori of people, at
the head of which wete the horse and
many of the cannoneers of Marfeiße».
The Representatives of the people
complain bitterly of these two corps.;
but a(Tnre 113 that the body of the citi
zens are- very faithful, and that in all
the tumults, not a drop of blood has
been Ihed. There will not be any fay
they,except fueh as the law will reclaim.
They have named a commiffiori to try
the rioters taken in arms, menacing the
National Convention.
The armed force at Marseilles have
well fulfilled their duiy; the firft bat
talion of Gravilliers makes apart of
them. They regulated prudently all
the movements, and protected the arse
nals, which the insurgents intended to
besiege, they refilled all attempts to fe
ducethem from their duty.
The Convention passed a decree, ap
proving of the measures taken by the
representatives of the people at Mar
seilles, viz. their forming of a commif
fionand nominating its members.
The Horfeof MarlaUcs-aie Iw-enti
«u>. 1«e reprefcrrtstives will call to
account all thofV who had*-any share in
the infurreftion,. The committee of
public fafety is charged to fend fuffici

The popular society of AfTcl, de
partment of the Corefe, sent their pro
feffion of faith : in the firft article it is
declared, that Patriotism and humanity
are incompatible. [Look to that, y.
Jacobins.]
Clauzel rose to eficounter this prir
le pie. Patriotism, said he, is the germ
s, 6f all the virtues—to maintain that hu
y inanity Cannot unite with it, is to de
"» grade patriotism. i call for a repioba
d tion of this article.
is time, added Thibaudat, that
" the Convention (Tiould speak plainly it
cannot permit public opinion to fluctu
ate, when it fees men wrangling to ob-j
tain a greater or less ftiare of influence •
perhaps to save their heads. There has
been presented to you a report, in which
are developed the principles \vhich you
profefs, but mixed with extensive v ews l
r of commerce and politics ; they have
pe:haps not fufficiently fixed public o
pinion. I demand that your three com -
: mittees of legiflation,'of surety and of
public fafety, he charged to prejare'an
address, explanatory of the principles
which the Convention profefs. Then
yon will offer to patriots a rallying
point : then you will have a touch-stone
by which rogues and intriguers will be
known, and when they would raise their
voices, they will be considered as con
j fpirators.
Having madethefe general observati
ons, I pass to a particular fa£t. There
are in the bulletin tricks unworthy of
republicans. Yeftetday was read an ad
j drefsfrom Poitiers, wherein they speak
los the revival of moderation and arif- j
j tocracy. I have examined this address, I 1
I and have difcoverecl that it was prepaied 1
! seven weeks patt, one of the ligners has c
been dead 5 weeks, and others are vil
lains who ltole from the commiftee of
vigilance the effects of those who are im- 1
prisoned.
I ought to add that this address was
inserted in the bulletin ; but the letter j
of the representative Chcuvin, noiv em
ployed in that department which was
read 8 days ago, is not infeited in the
bulletin.
