at that, and I recommend you not to situ
against these simple rules of good policy and pri
pi:Ay. The army, in the late events, showed a live' ly
sympathy for the Republican cause, and it must i 0
attached to it more and more. It is the people, 0
we are, and it is the first barrier that would be of r
posed to an invasion. It is about to enter for the fir it
time on the possession of political rights. Therefor et
honour it, and do what you can to obtain the go( la
wishes of those who command it ; do not forget tb. tt
your powers do not extend to the regulations of di! v
cipline ; they may be summed up in these tss
words :—To make use of the military force, and
gain over by marks of esteem and cordiality.
"3. Your relations with the law functionaries.
These magistrates depend on the executive authorit;&
only in the circle precisely traced out by the !Imre
You will demand from the law officers a devoted co—
operaiion, and wherever you do find it, you will in--.
Corm me; at the same mentioning such persons as are'
remarkable for their probity and firmness. I shall:
communicate the same to the Minister of Justice. As
to the law officers who are immoveable, you will keep-,
a close eye on them, and if any of the members'
should exhibit public marks of hostility, you may use 4
the right of suspending, which your sovereign au• •
thority confers on you.
"4. National Guard.—You will receive from mr
detailed instructions on the organization of the civil-.
force. I have endeavoured to provide against all Or
difficulties which you meet with. Those which roar
arise from local and unforeseen obstacles must b
surmounted by your patriotism. In proceeding ' 0
the elections, you will conform yourself to tl
decrees of the Government, that is to say, that 1
derogation to the law of 1831, you will cause to 0
named all the officers without exception by t
National Guard, commencing by the superior ran 0.
You will carefully watch over the action of the su ib•
commissaries and of the municipalities, and slAu
oblige them to render to you an exact account .03
their operations.
"5. The Elections.—The elections are your g teat
work—they will prove the salvation of the counitry•
It is on the composition of the Assembly that oat
destinies depend. It must be animated by $
revolutionary spirit, if net we shall go on to civil
and anarchy. On this subject, put yourselse 0$
your guard against the intrigues of double-faced sue*
who, after having served royalty, call them selves
servants of the people. Those will deceive yot I, and
you must refuse them your support. Let you tr mu*
dordre be, new men, and as much as possible . front
the ranks of the people, the working classes, who. forte
the living strength of the nation, should choose from
amongst them men recommended by their
gence, their morality, and their devotedness—united
to the elite of thinking men, they will bring into the
discussion of all great questions which will be 80'
tated under the authority of their practical expel'
ence. They will continue the revolution, and they
will limit it within the bounds of possibility and rev
son. Without them it will be led away in yelp
Utopian ideas, when it will be stifled under the' efforts
of a retrograde faction.
" Enlighten the electors, and repeat to them incle
santly that the reign of the men of the mom trehy is
finished.

" You comprehend how great is your tasik. 113°
education of the country is not complete. It is for
you to guide it. Cause in all points of your *depart •
ment the meeting of electoral committees; ettamine
closely the qualifications of the candidates, maid stop
at those only who appear to present the star ongest
guarantees of republican opinion, and the g reatest
chance of success. No compromises ; no. cow'
plaisance. Let the day of election be the ti iumph
of the revolution.
