 The provisional elecIion law which We have made the wes thai in any nation of the earth has ever eonvoked people to the exercise of the supreme longs 10 all without exception. From the date of this law there are no more subjects in Franee.- Every Frenchman of vire age is political citizen Every citizen Is an elector. Every elector is so- vereign. The law is equal and absolute for all.- There is no citizen who can say to another, "YOu are more sovereign than l." Contemplate your power. Prepare 10 exercise it. and be worthy of entering into possessioo of your reign. The reign of the p-0pIe is called the republic.

 Citizens, France is attempting, al this mOmens- in the midst of some financial difficulties, beqaeath ed her by royalty-bst under psovidential auspices, the greatest work of modern times, the foundation of the government of the entire peope-the organi- zaion of the Democracy-the Republic of ali rights, of all interests of ali the integences and of all the virtues! Circumstances are propi,ious. Peace is possible. The new idea may be able to take iis place in Europe, without any perturbation but that of the prejudices which people have against 1t - There is no anger in the minds of the people. If the fugitive royalty has not carried away with il all the enemies of the Republic, it has ef, them power less; and although they invested with sll the their interests and thelr prudence insure to that they will not themselves trouble the rcaeeable foea dalton of the popular eonstita'ion.
