ADDRESS Of the Chiefs of the Army of La Vendee to his B r itannic Majesty, brought to England by one ofCharette's Aids-de-Camp. §IRE, The Rbyalifts: of La Vendee are about to lay their feiitiftirtits, their wishes, and their hopes, at the feet of the greatest and most generous of sove reigns. For these three years palt, we have not ceaied to combat for the re-eftablifiiment of the throne and of the altar. Whilst France, either the vidtim or the accomplice of the tyrants, by which {he is governed,threatens, since that period, as well with her principles as her'arms, all the (tates lea gued against her, a handful of Frenchmen, faith- Jful to their Gud aud their king, brave all dangers, lurmount all obstacles, in order to restore happiness to their country and tranquility to Europe. Sometimes conquered, and oftner conquerors, our defeats as well as our victories, have cpft the ar mies of the Convention more than 300,000 men ; but unfortunately, such an important diversion, in favor of the combined power*, has hithert# served only to exhaust our means, and to weaken us, iri itead of procuring us the assistance whi.h we liad a right to expedt, as well from found policy, as from the promises of those who were allies of the cause which we defend. At last we learn that the white flag is floating on the coast of Britanny ; the Roy alists of La Vendee have resumed the arms which they had for a moment been induced to lay down, in conf/quence of a formal promifethat efforts should be speedily made for the re-establishment of Roy alty. Not only deceived in our expeditions, but threat ened in the persons of our chiefs, feme of whom have been basely massacred, others arreftetj, in vi olation of treaties, our battalions are again assem bled, and feveial vidtories have already signalized the new Campaign which we have recently opened. It is thus, then Sire, with those arms in our hands which are destined to combat the enemies of kings, that we present ourselves before your majesty, and that vie folieit you te unite your armies to ours, to concur in the re-establishment of our lawful sove reign on the throne of his ancestors. Long, too long, has the blood of England and France been flowing; the two nations feel the necessity of a just J and honorable peace; but fucK a peace can only be procured from a monarchy. Did an opportuni ty more precious to your majefty J »heart ever ocesr ? Did oneeverexift moreglorioMS than that which now presents itfelf,for concurring in the re-eftablilhment of a King upon the throne of France ? Such Sire,are oufwi/hes,-fnch alfoare ourhopes; and your Royal heart is too magnanimous to fnffer us to be disappointed in our expeditions. Rely ■ ing on the generous protection of your arms, we viil continue to combat your enemies and our own. Acquiring an accession of strength from assistance thus powerful, our soldiers will become, if possible, more powerful than ever. Until the arrival of that happy epoch, we will not cease to address our vows to Heaven for the preservation of your Majesty's life, and for the welfare and prosperity of your fub je£U. With thrfe sentiments, joined to thofe-of the most profound refpeft, we beseech your majes ty to believe us ever. Sire, your most obedient and most humble Servants, The Royalists of La Vendee, Chevalier Charette, Sapikeau, Go ET o, Knight of St. Louis.

The Primary Aflerablies of Versailles, as well as 1 those of the diftridts of that department, have ac -1 cepted the constitution, but rejedled the decree of : the sth Frudtidor. They are in no hurry to com ' municate this intelligence to the Convention, (though it ought to have been made known some 1 time ago) on account of the proximity of the 1 place. • All the walls of the houses have, for fame days ■ past, been covered with bills of different colours, white, red, and yellow. Here flicks an appeal to • the of 1789, which no patriot of' 1795 1 will give himfelf the trouble to read ; there," advice ' ■ to the republican troops, which the republican ■ troops will be furc not to follow, milefs they wish 1 to pass for Janizaries or Scirri. in another place, . the committee of publ'c fafety flatters hungry falks s wi»h ths h»pes ®f a speedy meal ; and further on, , the departmental administration kindly invites the 1 Sovereign to repair to the Primary Assemblies, > to sign the Minute of his approaching regene - ration. > The following curious passage is extracted fiom 1 a pamphlet lately pablifhed at Paris, entitled, - A rapid Jhetch to jlx the opinion of the people to the ' Primary AJfctnbUes : " The Orleans fadlion, led by the metaphysician ? Syeyet, and the Chancellor Latouche, who is now ' at Paris, again rears its head : It is supported by a numerous party, composed of certain members of the Convention, and of all those who h::ve pur chased national estates, who expedl to find a protedl or ia the head of the house of Orleans, having thro' kia father, dipped his hands in the blood of Louis 16th, would necessarily luffer all those crimes t* which he weuld be indebted for the tin one, to pas* unpunilhed." Ssptember 13. The fedlions of this city continue to difplsy the fame energy in opposing the decree of the yth Frudtidor, for the re-eledtion of two thirds of the Convention. Paris is now a great constituted authority, be fore which even the Convention seems ocraiionally to humble itfelf. It must be confeffed it is with great regret that it acuftoms itfelf sometimes to drink the hitter cup of truth. Whatever its repug nance may be, the fedtions appear to be inexorable ; a great majority persevere in declaring strenuously against the decree of re-ele&ian. This obflinacy is founded on considerations by no means flattering to the deputies. Several of the Primary Assemblies of tin's Com mune have sent deputies to the camp, who have been received by the troops with open arms. A report was in circulation yesterday morning, that the deputies from the ledon of Thcrmes had been arretted. Fortunately for the peace pj ?r • r ;xl\ and for that of the Convention, {he h ■ ><;• 1 , •>•-■} to be falfe. " Ever united in sentiment," said the citizens of the arsenal to their armed brethren, " vre (hall ever purftte the fame line-os condudl : Are we not children of the fame country i We eitablifh laws ; you defend them : You repulse oar enemies ; we deliberate, and repulse our tyrants.'! The soldiers answered this address with demon llrations of joy and fraternity ; they expressly de- clared that they would neirher use powder uor ball against the Parisians. A great uumber of the sec tions have declared themselves permanent, among whom are the fe&ions of Le Pelletier, the Place i Vendome, Suburb of the North, the Champs Elyfees, &c. &c. Several of the factions ha»e, this day, appointed commiffioncrs to go arid fraternize with the soldiers A in^ he camp near Paris. Leharpe has been chosen for this ptirpofe by the fetlion of Butte des-Meulins. We are aflured, that a divifjon of the army has t written to the Convention, that it did not mean by its acceptance, to fan&ion the dccree of the sth fru&idor.
