Thefe are the fentiments of the gOvtroment of the French republic, and of the army of Italy. Tbe. French, victorious, confiJer :he nations "of Lombard y as their broihfis.' J The- regard to religion and to the culloms of the country, was manifefted with the fame fcropulous fidelity. The churches were given up to indifcriminaie plunder.
