s, vol.1411. (Letter of Haupt, Brumaire 26, year II.)--Vol. 333. (Letter of Blessman and Haueser, Pluviose 4, year II.)] [Footnote 3379: Archives des Affaires etrangeres, vol. 333. (Letter of Chartres and of Caillard, Cornmune Aifranchie, Nivose 21.)--Vol. 331. (Letters of Desgranges, at Bordeaux, Brumaire 8 and Frimaire 3.) "The offerings in plate and coin multiply indefinitely; all goes right. The court-martial has condemned Dudon to death, son of the ex-procureur-general in the former parliament at Bordeaux, Roullat, procureur-syndic of the department, Sallenave, merchant. These executions excite sympathy, but nobody murmurs."] [Footnote 3380: Ibid., vol. 333. (Letter of Cuny, sr., Nivose 20.) Vols. 331, 332. (Letters of Chepy, passim, and especially those dated Frimaire II.)--Vol. 329. (Letter of Chepy, August 24, 1793.) "At Annecy, the women have cut down the liberty-pole and burnt the archives of the club and of the commune. At Chambery, the people wanted to do the same thing."--Ibid. (September 18, 1793.) "The inhabitants around Mont Blanc show neither spirit nor courage; the truth is, an anti-revolutionary spirit animates all minds."--Ibid. (Letter of August 8, 1793.) "Not only have the citizens of Grenoble, who were drawn by lot, not set out on the expedition to Lyons, but, even of those who have obeyed the laws, several have returned with their arms and baggage. No commune between St. Laurent and Lyons would march. The rural municipalities, badly tainted with the federal malady, ventured to give the troops very bad quarters, especially those who had been drafted."] [Footnote 3381: Ibid. (Letter of Cuny, jr., Brest, Brumaire 6.) "There are, in general, very few patriots at Brest; the inhabitants are nearly all moderates."--(Letter of Gadolle, Dunkirk, July 26, 1793.)--(Letter of Simon, Metz, Nivose, year II.) "Yesterday, on the news of the capture of Toulon being announced in the theatre,... I noticed that only about one-third of the spectators gave way to patriotic enthusiasm; the other two-thirds remained cold, or put on a long face."] [Footnote 3382: Ibid. (Letter of Haupt, Belfort, September 1, 1793.)] [Footnote 3383: Report by Courtois on the papers found in Robespierre's domicile, p. 274. (Letter of Darthe, Ventose 29, year II.)] [Footnote 3384: "Tableau des Prisons de Toulouse," by citizen Pescayre (published in year III.), p.101.] [Footnote 3385: Archives Nationales, F.7, 4421.
