welfare Of our country, and the peace Of
Europe, depend upon the destruction OF
his power. The army that supports hin
lis therefore the hostile army: it combats
against France, brings war into cur Ia
miles. because there would be no war If
this brave army would place itself under
the banners Of its king.
| You. French warriors, | do not call
upon you to desert; on the contrary,
| call upon you not to desert; not to tight
against your country with its only enemy.
Nov, you are deserters, and you will
cease to do so when you return to the
French armies which am again arrang-
ling. 1t is the duty of every citizen not
to bear arms except for the interest OF
Ibis country be it therefore, now known
to you, that this king, once SO desired,
now so regretted; this king, who, after
five and twenty years exile, himself sets
limits to his power as soon as he had re-
ceived it, will enter France with a French
army, to re establish for them, the Sc
cond time, peace, liberty and the con-
stitution.
summon you, therefore, to the SER
vice of your country under the bahners
of France; and because l am a French
man, | feel myself honored BY the COM
mission. Brave inhabitants, arm your
selves then for moment, and plant the
white flag, the symk o Of a spotless 60
vernment. Magistrates and warriors,
come as free and loyal men to fill the va
cant places the best of kings will pro-
tect you; just, and at the same time
firm government will protect you. The
strength of the ministry is the pledge OF
the security of the state, as the go'r'ness
of the king is the pledge of the peoples
happiness. The head quarters are at
Lerrach, near Basic.

he has exhausted the whole youth OF our
country, in unjust and useless wars, he
desires now to have cur fathers OF 1ami-

are advancing against him. No Europe

of his government, because ye al Know
that he is surrounded by privileged
