Excerpt from History of the French Revolution, Vol. 3 of 4 Very different was the activity and success of their oppo nents, the Democrats. The plan of subjecting all the pro perty and civilisation of France to their will, which they had first promulgated after the l0th of August, and again during the month of December, was now to be brought into full operation by the new ascendancy which this party had acquired through the trial and execution of the king. As the middle class in Paris kept entirely aloof from politics, the sectional assemblies were only attended by a handful of proletaries, who commenced their sittings late in the evening after work hours, and faithfully represented that sovereignty of the people, whose dicta - according. To the doctrine of the J acobins were to be a binding law on the Convention. Care was taken that there should never be any want of orators or exciting themes of declamation: discussions were carried on till late in the night, on the worthlessness of the ministry and the Gironde - ou the intrigues of the Emigres, and the traitors at home - and above all, on the starvation of the poor, the hard-heartedness of the rich, and the means of extermin ating usurers and monopolists. As many articles were made dear by the stagnation of trade and the mass of as signats, there was reason enough for complaint; and the exasperation was increased by the thought that goods existed in plenty, and that they only had a higher price put on them by the merchants, or were altogether withdrawn from the market, in consequence of the uncertain value of the paper money. And thus a fresh outcry was raised against their grinding selfishness and it was again demanded that the State should decree low and fixed prices, and punish those who refused to sell their goods. The word was passed from section to section; wherever any opposition showed itself it was immediately suppressed by a number of resolute Federes; and on the 12th of February the first of those storm petitions - which were so terribly to characterize the year. 1793 - was presented to the Convention. Commissioners of the sections and the Federes, warmly supported by Marat. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The French Revolution, Vol. 3 of 4 It has been said that the fall of the Bastille first revealed to France the weakness of her Government, and that the Government never recovered from the revelation. But, indeed, the weakness of the Government had revealed itself before: first, when it consented to summon the States-General, and again, even more flagrantly, when it failed to accept the challenge of Mirabeau, and to coerce a mutinous Third Estate at the point of the bayonet. The weakness of the Government was betrayed rather by the triumph of the Tennis Court than by the humiliation of the Bastille. The weakness of the Bastille proved the strength of the people. The taking of the Bastille is not remarkable as a military achievement; the pettiest war ever waged must needs bear witness to exploits far more illustrious in the eyes of the soldier and the strategist.

Excerpt from The History of the French Revolution, Vol. 3 of 5 Great was the joy at the J acobins. Its members congratu lated themselves on the energy of the people, on their late admirable conduct, and on the removal of all those obstacles which the right side had not ceased to Oppose to the progress of the Revolution. According to the custom after all great events, they agreed upon the manner. In which the last insur rection should be represented. The people, said Robe spierre, have confounded all their calumniators by their conduct. Eighty thousand men have been under arms for nearly a week, yet no property has been violated, not a drop of blood has been spilled, and they have thus proved whether it was their aim, as it has been alleged, to profit by the disorder for the commission of murder and plunder. Their insurrection was spontaneous, because it was the effect of the general conviction; and the Mountain itself, weak and astonished at this movement, has proved that it did not concur to produce it. Thus this insurrection has been wholly moral and wholly popular. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The French Revolution, Vol. 3 of 3: A History; The Guillotine Very frightful it is when a Nation, rending asunder its Con stitutions and Regulations which were grown dead cerements for it, becomes transcendental and must now seek its wild way through the New, Chaotic, - where Force is not yet distin guished into Bidden and Forbidden, but Crime and Virtue wel ter unseparated, - in that domain of what is called the Passions of what we call the Miracles and the Portents It is thus that, for some three years to come, we are to contemplate France, in this final Third Part of our History. Sansculottism reigning in all its grandeur and in all its hideousness the Gospel (god's message) of Man's Rights, Man's mn/zts or strengths, once more preached irrefragably abroad along with this, and still louder for the time, the fearfulest devil's-message of Man's weaknesses and sins - and all on such a scale, and under such aspect cloudy 'death-birth of a world huge smoke-cloud, streaked with rays as of heaven on one side; girt on the other as with hell-fire 1 History tells us many things but for the last thou sand years and more, what thing has she told us of a sort like this? Which therefore let us two, 0 Reader, dwell on willingly, for a little; and from its endless significance endeavour to ex tract what may, in present circumstances, be adapted for us.

Excerpt from The French Revolution, Vol. 3 of 3 Monday the eighteenth of April is home; the Easter J our ney to saint-cloud shall take effect. National Guard has got its orders; a First Division, as Advanced Guard, has even marched, and probably arrived. His Majesty's Maison-boucha, they say, is all busy stewing and frying at saint-cloud; the King's dinner not far from ready there. About one o'clock, the Royal Carriage, with its eight royal blacks, shoots state into the Place du Carrousel; draws up to receive its royal burden. But hark! From the neighboring Church of Saint Roch, the tocsin begins ding-dong-ing. Is the King stolen, then; is he going; gone Multitudes of persons crowd the Carrousel: the Royal Carriage still stands there and, by Heaven's strength, shall stand!

Excerpt from The French Revolution, Vol. 4 of 4 Although it might be, and indeed in this case was proved to be, a momentous thing for a monarch to journey a few miles from one royal palace to another, it would not, on the face of it, seem that this shift of lodgings was in itself a very difficult matter. And yet, curiously enough, at the time when it took place the gravity of the business, its historical importance, its tragedy and its pathos, seemed less conspicuous, at least to the official eye and mind, than the difficulty, the trouble, and the worry of the undertaking. For the King of France to come from his palace at Versailles to his palace at Paris meant an amount of perturbation, of anxiety, of a despair touching the extreme of comedy, of which few except those immediately concerned had any conception.
