[6] Moniteur， XIII. 200. Report of Sautereau， July 20， on the affair of Corporal Lebreton. (Nov. 11， 1791).
[7] Saint Huruge is first tenor. Justine (Sado-machosistic book by de Sade) makes her appearance in the Palais-Royal about the middle of 1791.

Report by Pétion， mayor， Dec. 9， 1791. "Every branch of the police is in a state of complete neglect. The streets are dirty， and full of rubbish； robbery， and crimes of every kind， are increasing to a frightful degree." "Correspondance de M. de Sta？l" (manuscript)， Jan.
22， 1792. "As the police is almost worthless， ******* from punishment， added to poverty， brings on disorder."[9] Moniteur， XI. 517 (session of Feb. 29， 1792). Speeches by de Lacépède and de Mulot.
[10] Lacretelle， "Dix ans d'Epreuves." "I know no more dismal and discouraging aspect than the interval between the departure of the National Assembly， on the 10th August consummated by that of September 2."[11] Mercure de France， Sept. 3， 1791， article by Mallet du Pan.
[12] Moniteur， XI. 317 (session of Feb. 6， 1792). Speech by M. Cahier， a minister. Many of the emigrants belong to the class formerly called the Third-Estate. No reason for emigrating， on their part， can be supposed but that of religious anxieties."[13] Decree of Nov. 9， 1791. The first decree seems to be aimed only at the armed gatherings on the frontier. We see， however， by the debates， that it affects all emigrants. The decrees of Feb. 9 and March 30， 1792， bear upon all， without exception. -- "Correspondance de Mirabeau et du Comte de la Marck，" III. 264 (letter by M. Pellenc， Nov. 12， 1791) The decree (against the emigrants) was prepared in committee； it was expected that the emigrants would return， but there was fear of them. It was feared that the nobles， associated with the unsworn priests in the rural districts， might add strength to a troublesome resistance. The decree， as it was passed， seemed to be the most suitable for keeping the emigrants beyond the frontiers."[14] Decree of Feb. 1， 1792. -- Moniteur， XI. 412 (session of Feb.
17). Speech by Goupilleau. "Since the decree of the National Assembly on passports， emigrations have redoubled." People evidently escaped from France as from a prison.

(This decree is not in Duvergier's collection~) -- Moniteur， XII. 59， 247 (sessions of April 5 and 28， 1792).
[18] At the Jacobin Club， Legendre proposes a much a more expeditious measure for getting rid of the priests. "At Brest， he says， boats are found which are called Marie-Salopes， so constructed that， on being loaded with dirt， they go out of the harbor themselves. Let us have a similar arrangement for priests； but， instead of sending them out of the harbor， let us send them out to sea， and， if necessary， let them go down."

[27] The words of Brissot (Patriote Fran？ais)， number 887. -- Letter addressed Jan. 5 to the club of Brest， by Messrs. Cavalier and Malassis， deputies to the National Assembly： "As to the matter of the sieur Lajaille， even though we would have taken an interest in him， that decorated aristocrat only deserved what he got. . . We shall not remain idle until all these traitors， these perjurers， whom we have spared so long， shall be exterminated" (Mercure de France， Feb. 4). --This Jaille affair is one of the most instructive， and the best supported by documents (Mercure de France， Dec.10 and 17). --"Archives Nationales，" F7， 3215， official report of the district administrators， and of the municipal officers of Brest， Nov. 27， 1791.
-- Letter by M. de Marigny， commissary in the navy， at Brest， Nov. 28.
-- Letters by M. de la Jaille， etc. -- M. de la Jaille， sent to Brest to take command of the Dugay-Trouin， arrives there Nov.27. While at dinner， twenty persons enter the room， and announce to him， "in the name of many others，" that his presence in Brest is causing trouble， that he must leave， and that "he will not be allowed to take command of a vessel." He replies， that he will leave the town， as soon as he has finished his dinner. Another deputation follows， more numerous than the first one， and insists on his leaving at once； and they act as his escort. He submits， is conducted to the city gates， and there the escort leaves him. A mob attacks him， and "his body is covered with contusions. He is rescued， with great difficulty， by six brave fellows， of whom one is a pork-dealer， sent to bleed him on the spot.
