PROCLAMATION OF THE COMMISSION OF GO-
VERNMENT TO THE FRENCH.
66 Fnexctimem I—ln the difficult circumstances,
when the reins of the State were confided to ns, it
was not in our power to master the curse of events,
and to remove all dangers ; but it became our duty
to defend the interests of the people and of the army,
equally compromised in the cause of a Prince, aban-
doned by fortune and the national will.
66 It became our duty to preserve to the country
the precious remains of those brave legions whose
courage is superior to reverses, and who have been
the victims of a devotedness which the country now
claims.
66 It became our duty to guarantee the cipital from
the horrors of a siege, and the chances of a battle,
to maintain the public tranquillity in the midst of the
tumult and agitations of war, to support the hopes
of the friends of liberty, in the midst of the fears
and inquietudes of a suspicious foresight; above all,
it became our duty to stop the useless effusion of
blood—it was necessary to chose an assured national
existence, or to run the risk of exposing the country
and its citizens to a general subversion, which would
have left neither hope nor futurity.
66 None of the means of defence which time and
our resources allowed—nothing that the service of the
camps and of the city required was neglected.
" While the pacification of the West was finishing,
Plenipotentiaries repaired to the Allied Powers, and
all the documents of their negotiation have been laid
before your Representatives.
46 The fate of the capital is settled by a Conven-
tion. Its inhabitants, whose firmness, courage, and
perseverance, are above all praise, form its guard.
64 The declarations of the Sovereigns of Europe
&odd inspire too much confidence, their promises
have been too solemn, to excite a fear that our liber-
ties and our dearest interests can be sacrificed to
victory.

41 In a word we shall receive guarantees which will
prevent those alternate and temporary triumphs of
factions that have agitated us for five and twenty
years, which will terminate our revolution, and con-
found in a common protection all the parties to which
it has given birth, and all those which it has combated. ,
41 The guarantees which hitherto have only existed
in our principles and in our courage, we shall find in
our laws, our constitution, and in our representative
system; for whatever may be the intelligence, the
personal qualities of the Monarch, they are not suffi-
cient to put the people out of the reach of the oppres.
