g of the people), a new song against the terrorists, is in great vogue. Lanjuinais proposes to suppress the publication of the votes of the convention, which costs the nation 2,300,000 livres annually. Report of Genissieu in favour of transported priests. Tallien and Blad, members of the convention, ordered to repair instantly as representatives to the department of La Vendee. 2. Le Bon, pale and trembling, enters the convention, and begins his defence: "His crimes (he observes) "are those of the convention itself, under whose "orders he acted." 3. Horrid massacres in the Southern provinces. Various skirmishes between the French and Austrians reported. Bread 16 livres a pound in Paris. Bloody action at Chatillon between the Chouans and republicans. The convention decrees that France is a republic, one and indivisible. 6. Le Bon continues his defence. Bresson asserts that it is impossible to make France a democratic republic; he votes for a senate, an executive power, and censors. A member complains that the rights of man only, and not the duties of man, are subjects of consideration. 14. Anniversary of the French revolution celebrated. Project of a national tontine. A loan of a milliard at three per cent. Lanthenas reads a motion from Thomas Paine, he not being able to speak French. Mons. d'Hervilly is wounded near Aurai (sic). Warm action between the republicans and Chouans near L'Orient. Le Bon proceeds with his defence. Disorders at St. Malo; and at Lyons. 15. The royalists attack the camp of St. Barb; forced to retreat. 16. The Spaniards again defeated. 17. Le Bon decreed to be in a state of accusation. Report of a complete overthrow of a Spanish army.
