Paris, Auguit 13, 9th Year of the Republic,

44 Among the encouragements which may be
given to our manufactures, there is none ,more
powerful than that of clothing ourfelves, and de-
corating our habitations, with their produCts. This
mode, the eafieß, though the moft negleeted, fe-
cures at once a confumption for them, while it flat-
ters the vanity of the manufaCturer. Let us hope
that a fentiment of national interetl, and the re-
generation of the public fpirit, will at length pro-
duce among us, what neither coercive laws, nor
confiderations of policy, have been able to effect.
Expecting this happy return to the true intereßs of
France, it belongs to the Government to fet an
example, and to make it a point of honour and
pride to furround itfelf with the produas of our
manufaCture.

It is with this view that I tranfmit to you the
annexed decree, of which you will attend to the
execution. P CHAPTAL."
