Isle, May 6.
In the present arduous circumstances,
when all France is taking up arms for the
defence of her Independence, we are
ashamed to say that our department. does
not shew that French spirit which distin-
guishes Lorraine, Franche Comte. Burgun-
DIV, and Champagne. We are. neverthe-
less, the same men who, on so many occa-
sions, displayed sentiments that gained
the esteem vi al france. whence pro-
ceeds then. the Kind of apathy which pre-
walls here ? We are Influenced by the
agents of Foreigners. and those OF the little
band of traitors collected at Client.
The mayor of the city OF Lille, in the
department. Of the north, informs the irha-
bitants that the place is put ia state of
siege. In consequence, the authority with
which the magistrates were invested, for
the maintenance of order and of the police,
il wholly tranierred to the Military COM
mandant, unless-he delegates to them such
part of it as he stall think fit.
The commandment being invested with
the necessary authority to compel useless
mouths to quit the city, the Inhabitants
will feel the necessity Of laying in provi-
sions for six months at least.
