tribunals. Every proprietor of a house in which arms
may be found will also be proceeded with in the same
manner, and any one refusing to deliver up his arms
will be constrained to do so by the military. The French
sentinels at the different gates will seareh all persons, and
animals, and carriages, going out of Rome, and will re-

nounce the sudden death of Mr. Stigant, the store .keeper
