"The Great Terror"

During the long days Of June and
July there ragged again a carnival Of
blood, known to history as the "Great
Terror" In less than seven weeks up
NAlrd Of 200 victims were inundated.
The unbridled license Of the guillotine
broadened as 1t ran. First the aristo-
Gratis had fallen. then royalty, then
their sympathizers, then the hated rich,
then the merely well-to-do, and lastly
anybody not cringing to existing power.
The reaction against Robespierre was
one Of universal fear; but dictator as
he had wished to be, he was formed Of
other stun, for when the reckoning
came his brutal violence was cowed. On
July 27 % Ther1nidor) the convention
turned on him in rebellion. Extreme
radicals and moderate conservatives
combined for the effort Terrible
scenes were enacted. The sections of
Paris were divided, some for the con-
venhon, some for Robespierre. The
artillerymen who were ordered by the
latter to batter down the part Of the
Iuileries where his enemies were sit
ting, hesitated and disobeyed; at once
all resistance to the DEGREES Of the con-
vent1on died out The dictator would
have been his own executioner, but his
faltering terrors stopped him midway
in his design. He and his brother, with
their friends, were seized, and behead-
ed on the morrow. With the downfall
of Robespierre went the last vestige of
social or political authority; for the con-
vention was no longer trusted by the
pation-the only organized power with
popular support which was left was
the army.-Century.
