We received-from it. nothing .but the must !to-
nottrahle testimonies of its devotedness, up to the
last moments of its liberty: This snccess.of the
enemy, far font having checked the ardour of
tither provinces, has inspired them with new
ardour.

the Cote-d'Or, -of the_ Nievre, the Daubs, the

behind them.
It is enough that we have to Lament -the treaso4
of "some warriors ; France wishes 'only to posses
tbe,defenders of its• liberties ; she disown- and
proscribes for ever- those unnatural Ilearts, who

it with shuddering, amidst 4111' our caliunities a.
national glory belonged to us ; we owed it to-our
armies ; we presented, them with pride to fo-
reigners ; we loved to recollect their triumphs,
and that- admirable generosity which jutpdled
them to:march front pole to pole, whenever there
was danger ; why, amongst this -race or heroes,:
must we now count some who are, faithless, and
deserters- amongst the pillars of the natio:nil
glory. ? Let. us - lament this with thok traly
French soldiers, who, at all times, have known
oaly to shed their blood for their country who
always fa:shful to her voice, and strangers to all

They will now avenge their country, which it is
Ivished to enslave, and their glory which some
Lave dared to obscure : all the Chiefs point out
to their brethren in arms the path of honour;
each is at his post, ready to march at the voice of
the country.
Already the Marshal de Trevise has informed
his corps d'arin6 of the perfidy of our enemies, and
all the troops led astray have returned tinder the
standards of honour. General Daboville has not
seen one faithless among his men ; all of them
repelled the traitor who dared to tewipt their
fidelity.

• Given at Paris, iniour Castle of the Thuilleries, this 13th
of March, 1815, and of our reign the 20th.
On the proposal of the President, .grounded on
the urgency.of the case, the Chamber ordered the
ptan of law to be laid before the Committees for
instant deliberation. •
The President 'then declared, that the Minister
of imitate for ties War Department had also com-
munications to make to the Chamber, and that
two of its Members demanded to submit propo-
sitions to it,
The Duke of FELTIIE.—The Chamber has wish-
ed to bear from my mouth some details relative to
my Department ; but Gentlemen will reatllilayabaell-
neve, that having held the office for only 24 hours,
I haVe not been enabled to arrange in my head

it is certain that the loyalty of General Lions

man who loves the liberty of his country. This

however, "ere ignorant of what they were doing,
ev.n when about: possessing themselves Of the
important arsenal of La Fete: hurt presently being
undeceived they' re-entered the path of duty.
Thus, gentlethen,' in the north the soldiers have
generally manifested a right spirit, atid Can cause
no dimuletude either to the King or the nation.
It is not the same with the troops which were
at :Lyons. 'We ought to have reckoned on the
important depot of Grenoble, and on the prompti-
tude of the departure of the Princes. An unexz.
erected defection rendered insufficient all the Means
attempted to oppose the movement which placed
Lyons in the power of the enemy of the country;
for certainly there was no insufficiency of courage.
Too much praise cannot be given to the Princes
who wished to make a -complete resistance and
it was only on account of fortuitous .eiretint-
stances, -that it became necessary to renounce a
perseverance which could lead to nothing. In
fact, there was a total want' of artillery. • It was
natural to take. it from Grenoble, the nearest
depot. There was nothing disposable, except a
little, powder, and a wretched piece of -cannon
which had been abandoned by the Austrian army,
it was therefore impossible to resist, especially
when the garrison of Grenoble had been guilty of
the defection of which I complain. I.iut the troops
who are moeing•from the north at this moment, slim the best spirit.
Measures have been taken to defeat those au-
dacious attempts on French fidelity and liberty :
they are in execution at this moment, and I hope
they will have the success which the nation has
a right to expect front the vigilance of its Go-
vernment.

Some news have caused just alarm, and gave
notice of the danger in which the capital might
have been placed by the odious treason of Gene-
ral Desnouttes. The King, incapable of deceiv-
ing any body, learned with grief a proceeding F. 0
unexpected. His Majesty offered to we the porte-
feuille of the War-office :it would have been.
cowardly to refuse it 'tiller circumstances so
painful. I did not fear to answer this honour-;
able confidence, because I felt assured •that I
should be faithful to my duties, as during my

'whole life I have been faithful to all

Culi

At these rrorils of the Minister the most 'lirelv
acclamations burst forth front all quarters.
The President.—However pure those sentiments
rnay be which have just been displayed, • I must
appeal to those regulations which forbid all marks
Of approbation or disapprobation in this misetn-
bly. If those marks are repeated, I must clear
the house.

1 come now to the communications which I
have to make to the Chamber.
Here the Minister added, that the last report
Just received, announced that the enemy of France
had obtained no further successes : that although
it had happened that sortie of the military had
been seduced to betray the King ard the Nation,
yet the zeal and fidelity of the numerous corps
which covered Paris, and the honourable devoted-
ness of the brave 'national guard, were sufficient
to reassure every mind.
lle also announced, that the two Generals,
Lallemand, and 10 individuals, some of whom
were •Aidesde,Cainp, accomplices with them,
being vigorously pursued by the gendarmerie, had
been taken and delivered over to a court-martial,
which would'pronounce against them the punish,
merit due to their crime. •
-One of the Deputies asked the Minister, if he
could give any information as to the troops at
Metz and Besancon ?
The Duke of Feltre declared that he could not
speak too favourably of the attachment and tide-
lity of those troops—of that erld guard which the
King proposed' to employ with the Moi.e• confi-
dence, because it had never brought a stein 011
French honour.
in fine, the telegraphic dispatches which have
been transmitted are perfectly encouraging. -
ac to the movement of troops, continued the
Minister, the Chamber will excuse my entering
into detail, akiijpight furnish a clue.,
•••
I have nothing joadd, Gentlemen, except that
there are measures which are
.necessary in the
crisis in Which we stand ; but they must emanate
from you. The Ministers cannot do every thing.
The wishes of the Nation are even more powerful
than all which the King could not merely for
his own preservation, it for the happiness. of the
people.

The Duke of Feltre having .descended from the
Tribune, the President invited one of the Mem-
bers (whose name Was on the list) to'make a pro=
position to. the Chamber.

- M. Delhortne.—Gentlemen, the Ministers of
the King have presented to the Chamber the pro-
ject of a law to which I propose tu add an amend-
ment, of which I regret that I cannot develope the
motives : hut without doubt you will find that it

"The Chamber of Deputies declares that the
deposit-of the national charter and •of the public
liberty, is entrusted to the fidelity and courage
of the army, of the national guards, and of all the
citizens."

The President consulted whether the Chamber
would take into consideration the proposition of
M. Edlionne.

The Abb6 De Montesptiou.—We can declare
in the name of his 11.lajesty, that the Government
entirely adopts the proposed addition.
The Chamber declared unanimously that it
would token into consideration the -alncnarnent
proposed by M. Delhorme, and ordered that • it
should be immediately referred to the Committee.
M. Lajord (of...the Seine). subluitted to the
Chamber a proposition, tending to secure the
payment of the pensions to the military Members
of the Legion of Honour.
It was taken into consideration, and will be im-
mediately debated in the Committee. •
One of the Secretaries,read the following Peti-
tion addressed to the Chamber :

Gentlemen, we offer ourselves to the King
and the Country. The School of Law, in a body,
asks leave to march. We will not abandon either
our Sovereign or our COnsititution. Faithful to
French honour, we ask for arms. The feeling of

This Petition was honourably received, and re
ferred to the Government.

Deputies retired to their respective Coinnattqes.
