decree of dismissal was not passed until the 12th of August, but after
the 31St of July the municipality demanded it and during the following
days several Jacobin grenadiers go to the National Assembly, trample on
their bearskin hats and put on the red cap of liberty.]

According to the report of the Minister of War, read the 30th of July,
at the evening session, 5,314 department federates left Paris between
July 14 and 30. Petion wrote that the levy of federates then in Paris
amounted to 2,960, "of which 2,032 were getting ready to go to the camp
at Soissons."--A comparison of these figures leads to the approximate
number that I have adopted]

[Footnote 2632: Buchez et Roux, XVI. 120, 133 (session of the Jacobins,
Aug. 6). The federates "resolved to watch the Chateau, each taking
a place in the battalions respectively of the sections in which they
lodge, and many incorporated themselves with the battalions of the
faubourg St Antoine."]

who had recruited them, "was perhaps very glad to get rid of them."--On
the composition of this group and on the previous role of Rebecqui, see

grenadiers: "They swore on their honor that they did not draw their
swords until after being threatened for a quarter of an hour, then
insulted and humiliated, until forced to defend their lives against
a troop of brigands armed with pistols, and some of them with
carbines."--" The reading of this memorandum is often interrupted
by hooting from the galleries, in spite of the president's
orders."--Hooting again, when they file out of the chamber.]
