FRENCH TRIBUNATE.

Tribunate not hain? been yet pub, (bed,

Sitting of the th Priarial, ( May 23 J
In the name of the facial com
mittee Darau made a report on thr
official pieces of the negotiation
with England.
When the firft cry of war was
heard;every onecaft his eye nd
him, nd beheld Europe in pofleffion
of piice. , ,
. The allies of France alone had
caufe to complain. The Suavians
ftill expaed thr reftituon of thr
One of Good H.ipe, Turkey that
of gvpt,;ind France demanded the
evacuation of Mtlta, and the ac
Icnowledgernentof itsindependence.
It is riot, hvvever, among us that
thr fit ft cry of war- is tailed. If
ifTued from the boforri of a nation
which has given rife to fuch well
founded complaints.
Welearn that there were negotia
tions wit! out kijowin that new
interefts remained to be regulated
and we have juftjfeen that the iffue
is an mfulting, provocation.
We muft then entsr into a fevere
examination of the complaints of
France and EniandJ follow the
conuuti of the rgociatiqi and cb
frve what H'iil be the rclult of War
to both nations. .
Here the orator referred to the
early part of the revolution. He
reprs fented France as 'attacked by
foiei. ners w ho threatened to invade
it ; thofe fame foreigners promifcd
their uipport to a family wmch had
long governed France; while they
careftJ'W remained at a diffcance from
that country, from wh-.ch places
were; taken in their name ekcited
ref uge-s, who msreh-d tn their train,
and abandoned them alter their de
feat. In the midft oi this diipro
portioned ftruggle, the F' ench ar
mies were commanded by generals
enemies of the revolution,' and every
thing predicted approaching; del
tfufciion and total defeat. . If any
one had raifed his voice in the roidft
of thefe different circumftances if
he faid to you, i do not defpaif of
your prefervatibn, of your liberty,
there are llill great men in thofe ob
icuie ranks, they will conduct your
armies to v.ftory-l-they will recover
the limits of your territory,you Will
srecover your orofperstv witfim. and
will command peace to Europe
combined agunft you. . Certainly,
if any one had prefumed to hold
4uch language, would he not hive
been treated like a madman ? Yet
1 have only ft ated what is the hiftory
of yourfelves.
Our enemies foon'- perceived that
the calculations of hatred are always
falfe, and that it is always folly for
foreigners to interfere in oiir civil
3ifcords. It therefore rio longer
became a quellion of difputmg with
the French people, the right of
fixing its deiinies, and of forcing i:
to defcend from thefi ft rank among
nations, the events which iuccee
ied in a ftonifhing rapidity,- loudly
called for a man capable of ruling,
and alluring to France the refuit of
its long and glorious efforts. That
man appeared,glory named him, and
tfie voice of the French people is
ever obedient to th? call of glory.
Called to thefupreme magiftracy,his
firft thought was to put a period to
his m litary glory, shd to pacify Eu
tmpc. The orator adverted to the
overtures which; Were made by Bo
naparte for the re-ettabliihraent of
peace between France and England.
He cited the anfwer of the cabinet
of London, in which after having
expreffed that Europe Would fee
vith pleafurethe ruinsof the French
government reft o red to the hands of
the family, who procured, peace
within. andNrefpett from abroad, his
iintaanic Mjelty avowed, that he
attached to that event alone, the
pofBb&ty of , foUd a-n(j durable pa
cif.CtiQ43. '
TWgh in this note, continued
the ojrator, an attempt wa made to
apolog.fe for the war, rather then to
tk,? l!?c mcar,J cf terminating it;

armittice rxhauftrd all thofe means
which proved the deiire or renew
ine war, rather then of nutting a pe
riod to. its ravages.. 4The bntle of
Hohrnlenden .again qporaed as an
anfwer to every thing. ;The-treatv
of LuneviHe was concluded; and
one cannot too mucJbaoplaud the!
orudence of hjm who directed the
neeociaUons, and that fpirit of con
ciliation which overcame -To many
obiiaclesj and produced fuch happy
rcfults. . ...
Let us proceed to the .periods
whichfollowed the treaty of Amiens.
ir reprefenis the Britifh government
tolerating the diiguitmg injuries
of mirerablc! writers, and the fcan
dalous lihelsof a few fhamelefs men.
reeking from affaHi nations, and au.
thoriflng, with a lort of affectation,
(qmc refugees to wear, infultingly,
marks of djltmction which did not
rxift, and throw inf. t hem urjon our
lhpres with defamatory nbls, pre
tended commiflions, and machines
of drftruftion.
Thof1" whoave fuch commiflions,
faid he, were not the ancient minif
iers of the gofpel worthy of that fa.
cied character, they are rebels wh .
wifh to prevent peace from enterr
in into their confeiences, and who,
after having invoked the authority
of their chief m revolt, ditrrgarded
him when he commands fubmjflion.
The leporter referred to the com
plaints alledged by England, and
fhewed thJ injuftice of th?m. ., If
we may believe, faid he, thefe domi
neering Iflanders, you can no longer
eflablifh peace among your neigh,
bours ; confuminate ari ..exchange
without England claiming the rigru
of having a guarantee . which fhe
now requires, only becaufe fhe
thinks you are not in a condition
torefift her. Thus fhe trices arouni
yu the narrow circle of Popthus,
but Popthus was a Roman, and th?
King did not command a million r(
brave men ; but if his impudenet, j
excels of impudence a;d pride is ex..
traordinary, what is (1:11 more fo
is trie moderatron, the excels of mo
deration,' ccnt?aflin with it the
whole negocutions a moderation
which is the refuft of calrhnefs and
force. Tribunes let us irAitate it.
In a note of ihe. Britannic minif
ter, the King of England complains
of oftenfive allegation contained
;n the report of Col.' Sebaftiani.
This report is but a neceffary repa
ration, and fuch as the French army
had right toexpeft from thedifguf
ting calumnies,' the low injuries,
r.d the outrageous accufations con
fined in the work of an Englifh
officer, and of which the reception
I of Col Sebaftiani iri Egypt is an in-
iwer.
England complains of the part
we have taken in the differences of
Switzerland. ertainly Switzer
land has dearly paid for thfc advan
tagesof p:rotea!ing h-rfelf. Civil
war was kindled in her bofom, the
blood of her citizens flowed; every
benefit of the law was difregarded.
What was the refuit of thatrnedia-
tionwagamft which they rail ? That
af flopping the effufi 'ri of blood,
rettoring repofeto the citizens, and
giving to that country a ni conlti
tution for which it fiehed. and
which alone could protect it.
England argues' aeainfl our in-
creafe of territory ; it is not more
exact m advancing that France 1
now in a different ftate of pofTefno;
from that which exifled at the pe
riod of the necroriatinn ar Amirti
at leaft they mtft include in the
comparative picture the conquefts
me nas rentunced.
Let us examine the complaints ot
Trance, and let us dildam to occu
jy ourfelves with thofe injuries
which miferable writers are allowed
to commit, which Great Britain
has tolerated without regard to the
reipect due to triendfv nations.
Afk Mr Dundas on what title.5
ths power of England in India it
founded, he will anfwer. it is true.
wo have received fome conceflion
from the fovereigns who have go

Withoyt douht th s Englifh wil'

flattering their pride. -They wi'l

i And vvho will be the judger of
thisimportant cauf ? The govern
ment of Inata. Whowi'Lreap the
fruit of thftp-ip.i fhment infilled on
the guilty ? The government, of
India.. But however odious thefe
ufurpations are, they are not lefs
profitable. They do not lefs, change
in any fenfible manner the ftate of
fhe poteiTions in England, and this
fhould.have inierdiftcd the cabinet
of London from fuch allegations
agamft France. ;
To the pace, fo full of danger,
let us 07-pofe thr. fupprifition of a
ftste of war. .The ar ulea which
cnmmercii hr!Ps us from I dia a;d

We may prrferve. or rciume pofi.
cions which may facilitate attack or
defence. The powers of the conti
nent who have figned or guaranteed
the treaty of .Amiens v'Jl dioubtleis
not approve of the infraction. They
cannot blame the creumfit ns of
France, fince thev Crmana uutiiin;
they cannot fee without inui- tuac

Iceurity is perfect. They do not

tng, you fhould be informed thai
the Englifh had effected a landing
on our fhores, which of you would
not wifh that they fhould penetrate
the tonttn nt, to be more ceru.n
of their dellruciion ?
Compaie the impreflion which
would be made at the news ot the
arrival of a French army in England,
thepalfageto whichis doubtiela more
difficult ; but the effeft of which
would be $fcore terrible. We have
the power of conquer. g the ftates
which England pollelles on the con

land, the Eugl.fh power is over

government which has fuch a imul
number of land forces, will be obli.
-ged to fend a great part of its popu-

complete the difcontent. v Th itay 1
ot a large army on their coaits, win
neceffanly be very expenfive to our
enemies, Whilft it will not occafion
any increafe of expenditure on our
part. Finally it ipoliiDie r ranee
"nay finifh' thi'war in a day, and it
is impoflible to -fay for how many
years France may be obliged to de
mand peace."
He concluded by reading the fol
lowing project :
" The Tribunate, by virtue of
the right given to it by the twenty
nnth" article of the third title of
ihe conftitutionj after having con
sidered the negociatiOh which has
.aken place between the republic

The Tribunate ordff-d the report

RiourTe alfo made a long fpeech,
and concluded with the following
motion : ;
' In teflimbny of this unalterable
