Description
Excerpt from La Vendée: An Historical Romance
The doings on the fatal loth of August, and the few following days had, however, various effects ln Paris, all of which we do not clearly trace in history. We well know how the Mountain became powerful from that day; that from that day Marat ceased to shun the light, and Danton to curb the licence of his'' tongue; that then, patriotism in France began to totter, and that, from that time, Paris ceased to be a fitting abode for aught that was virtuous, innocent, or high-minded but the steady'' march of history cannot stop to let us see the various lights in which the inhabitants of, Paris regarded the loss of a King, and the commencement of the first French Republic.
