that they might to be hereditary and unlimited in point of num-
ber, to form a iiecossary conoterpoise between the monarchical
and demoeratiral pat tof the Constitution. With spect to the
gnarantees, 91. Alanuel observed, first, that neither the

lic shall no loogor then have to dread the misfortunes which we
have so recently experienced. The suppression of the Noblesse

In the Chamber of Peers, wliere a similar me!,sa;re was
r ad, the meinheN rose spontaneously, and retired without
any &liberal ion.

In 11 e Chamber of Representatives, 111. Manuel pro-
pcsed that the Chamber should continue its sitting, and
await the result, whatever it might be. " One or two
" things will happen," said he ; either the enemy will
" respect vour independence, and if the words of Kings
" nest lain, all hope would not be forbidden ;or they
cc Argil forget what they have declared ; they will expel
" tilp national representation from this place. Let us,
" then, repeat an e7,:pression formerly employed, and
" which resounded throughout all Europe—We were
" sent hither by our constituents, and nothing but bay-
" onrts shall remove us."--Ilis proposal was loudly ap-
*plaucled, and after a few remarks from some of the mem-
bers. the Chamber passed to the pure and simple older
of the day on the subject of this message."—The
;ions on the Constitution then occupied the house, and
the sitting closed with a determination to resume the sub-
•.iect next morning at ten o'clock. But in this they were
,revented ; " for, at break of day General t)csollcs,
the Commander of the National Ouard, took the li-
" Imtv of locking U both the Chambers."
