'20' Archives Nationales; F。7; 31167。  (Report; Niv?se 1; year II。; by

Leharival。)



'21' Dauban; 〃Paris en 1794;〃 307。  (Report of March 29; 1794。) It

here relates to the 〃Piques〃 Section; Place Vendome。



'22' Dauban; ib。; 308。  (Note found among Danton's papers and probably

written by the physician; Quevremont de Lamotte。)



'23' Dauban; ib。; 125。  (Report of Bérard; Vent?se 10。) In the words

of a woman belonging to the Bonne…Novelle section: 〃My husband has

been in prison four months。  And what for? He was one of the first at

the Bastille; he has always refused places so that the good sans…

culottes might have them; and; if he has made enemies; it was because

he was unwilling to see these filled by ignoramuses or new…comers;

who; vociferating and apparently thirsting for blood; have created a

barrier of partisans around them。〃



'24' Dauban; ibid。; 307。  (Report of March 29; 1794。)



'25' Ibid。; 150。  (Report of Vent?se 14。) … Archives Nationales; F。7;

31167。  (Reports of Niv?se 9 and 25。): 〃A great many citizens are

found in the sections who are called out after the meeting; to get

forty sous。  I notice that most of them are masons; and even a few

coach drivers belonging to the nation; who can do without the nation's

indemnity; which merely serves them for drink to make them very

noisy。〃 … 〃 The people complain; because the persons to whom the forty

sous are given; to attend the section assemblies do nothing all day;

being able to work at different trades。。。。  and they relay upon these

forty sous。〃



'26' Dauban; ibid。; 312。  (Note by Quevremont。) … Moniteur; XVIII。;

568; (Meeting of the commune; Frimaire 11; year II。): 〃The Beaurepaire

section advertises that wishing to put a stop to the cupidity of the

wine…dealers of the arrondissement; it has put seals on all their

cellars。〃



'27' Dauban; ibid。; 345。  (Order of the day by Henriot; Floreal 9。)



'28' Mallet…Dupan; II。; 56。  (March; 1794。)



'29' Buchez et Roux; XXVII。; 10。  (Speech by Barbaroux; May 14; 1793。)

… Report on the papers found in Robespierre's apartment by Courtois;

285。  (Letter by Collot d'Herbois Frimaire 3; year II。; demanding that

Paris Jacobins be sent to him at Lyons。) 〃 If I could have asked for

our old ones I should have done。  。  。  but they are necessary at

Paris; almost all of them having been made mayors。〃



'30' Meissner; 〃Voyage à Paris;〃 (at the end of 1795;) 160。  〃Persons

who can neither read nor write obtain the places of accountants of

more or less importance。〃? Archives des Affaires étrangères; vol。

324。  (Denunciations of Pio to the club; against his colleagues。) …

Dauban; ibid。; 35。  (Note by Quevremont; Jan。; 1794。): 〃The honest man

who knows how to work cannot get into the ministerial bureaux;

especially those of the War and Navy departments; as well as those of

the Commune and of the Departments; without having a lump in his

throat。  … Offices are mostly filled by creatures of the Commune who

very often have neither talent nor integrity。  Again; the

denunciations; always welcomed; however frivolous and baseless they

may be; turn everything upside down。



'31' Moniteur; XXIV。; 397 (Speech of Dubois…Crancé in the Convention

Floréal 16; year III。) … Archives Nationales; F。7; 31167。  (Report by

Rolin; Niv?se 7; year II。) 〃The same complaints are heard against the

civil Commissioners of the section; most of whom are unintelligent;

not even knowing how to read。〃



'32' Archives des Affaires étrangères; vol。  1411。  (August; 1793。)

〃Plan adopted〃 for the organization of the Police; 〃excepting

executive modifications。〃 In fact; some months later; the number of

claqueurs; male and female; is much greater; and finally reaches a

thousand。  (Beaulieu; 〃Essais;〃 V。; l10。) … The same plan comprehends

fifteen agents at two thousand four hundred francs; 〃selected from the

frequenters of the clubs;〃 to revise the daily morning lists; thirty

at one thousand francs; for watching popular clubs; and ninety to

twelve hundred francs for watching the section assemblies。



'33' Archives Nationales; F。7; 4436。  (Letter of Bouchotte; Minister

of war; Prairial 5; year II。) 〃The appointment of Ronsin; as well as

of all his staff; again excited public opinion。  The Committee; to

assure itself; sent the list to the Jacobin club; where they were

accepted。〃 … Ibid。; AF。;II。; 58。  〃 Paris; Brumaire II; year II。; club

of the Friends of Liberty and Equality; in session at the former

Jacobin club; rue St。  Honoré。  List of the citizens who are to set

out for Lyons and act as national commissioners。  (Here follow their

names。) All the citizens designated have undergone the inspection of

the said club; at its meeting this day。〃 (Here follow the signatures

of the President and three secretaries。) … 〃Journal des Débats et

Correspondence de la Société des Jacobins; No。543; 5th day of the 3rd

month of the year II。  … In relation to the formation of a new Central

club; 〃Terrasson is of opinion that this club may become liberticide;

and demands a committee to examine into it and secure its extinction。

The committee demanded by Terrasson is appointed。〃 … It is evident

that they hold on energetically to this monopoly。  … Cf。  Moniteur;

XIX。; 637。  (Vent?se 13。) Motion adopted in the Jacobin club; obliging

the ministers to turn out of office any individual excluded from the

club。



'34' Dauban; ibid。; 307。  (Report of Germinal 9。)



'35' Moniteur; XXII。  353。  (Session of Brumaire 20; year III。

'36' Archives Nationales; AF。; II。; 40。  (Acts passed by the Committee

of Public Safety at the dates indicated。) Beaulieu; 〃Essais;〃 v。; 200。

(Ibid。) The registers of the Committee of Public Safety contain a

number of similar gratuities paid to provincial clubs and patriots;

for instance; AF。; II。  58; (Brumaire 8); fifty thousand francs to

Laplanche; and; (Brumaire 9); fifty thousand francs to Couthon; 〃to

maintain public spirit in Calvados; to revive public spirit in Lyons;

to aid; as required; the less successful patriots who zealously devote

their time to the service of their country。〃



'37' Dauban; ibid。; 171; (report of Vent?se 17); and 243; (report of

Vent?se 25); on the civil…committees and revolutionary committees; who

order meat served to them before serving it to the sick; and who

likewise serve the good friends of their wives。? Ibid。; 146。  (Report

of Vent?se 10。)。  。  。  Archives Nationales F。7; 2475。  (Register of

the deliberations of the revolutionary committee of the Piques

sections; Brumaire 27; year II。) 〃The Committee orders that the two…

horse cab belonging to Lemarche be henceforth at the service of the

section and of the Committee when measures of security are concerned。〃

In this register; and others of the same series; we clearly see the

inside of a committee and its vast despotism。  Style and orthography;

with almost all; are of the same low order。



'38' Archives des Affaires étrangères; vol。  1411。  (Report of Aug。21

and 22; 1793。) 〃General Henriot sent me several 。  。  。  。  who made

use of the authority of the Committee of Public Safety and General

Security; as well as of that which he delegated to me; to make

domiciliary visits at the houses of individuals who were not assured

patriots; but that did not warrant their receiving money and even

abstracting it。〃



'39' Dauban; ibid。; 36 and 48。  (Case of the Notary; Brichard。)



'40' Cf。  〃The Revolution;〃 II。; 302; 303。  … Mercier; 〃Paris pendant

la Revolution;〃 I。; 151。  … Moniteur; XVIII。; 660。  (Session of

Frimaire 24; speech by Lecomtre in the Convention。) … On robberies and

the bribes paid; see; among other documents; 〃Mémoires sur les

Prisons;〃 I。; 290。  (Eighty thousand francs of bribes given to the
