Letter from general Buonaparte to the Executive Direßory. “ Head-Quarters, Pefchiera, 13 Prairial (June 1 ) “ I have related the conspiracy o! Pavia, the battle, and the taking of that town. “ I set out for Lodi from Milan on the sth I left th ere 110 more troops than were necelTa ry lor the blockade of the Caitle. I left the city as l entered it, in the midil of the joyful fcpplaufe of ah afTembled people. I was far. from thinking this a counterfeited joy, that the plot was already laid, and a perfidious treason on the point of hurtling into light. I was scarce arrived at Lody, when gen eral Delpinoy, commander at Milan, informed me, that three hours alter my departure the toctiu had been founded in a part ot Lombar dy. They had publilhed the news, that Nice was taken by the Englilh ; that the army of Conde was ai rived by Switzerland upon the territory of the Milancfe ; and that Beaulieu, reinforced by (x 7,000 men, marched againlt Milan. The pricils and the monks, armed ■with the poignard and the crucifix, excited revolt, and Simulated affafliaiion. On all sides, and by all means, they urged the people to arm agaiuk the troops.. The nobles had difeharged their domcftics, faying, that equali ty did not permit them to be retained. All tnofe affianced to the houle 6t Aullria, the Shires, Tax-Gatherer*, &c. displayed them- Idvc* in the lorcintolt rank. “ The people of Pavia, reinforced by 5 or ? ca^unts besieged the 300 men whom I had lelt m the cattle. At Milan, they endeav oured to tear dowr. the Tree of Liberty, and mmpled under feet the tri-coloured cockade. , D J‘ r P , , no >' commander of th? place, ?

I demanded at Milan a great number of hostages. I ordered those to be Ihot, taken with arms in their hands. I de clared to the archbishop, the- chapter, the monks, and the nobles, that they Ihould be relponljble to me lor the public trancjuiiity. “ The Municipality allotted three livres a head for each domcitic who was dilchargcd. ‘lFanquiiity being thus eltablilhed at Milan, I continued my route to Pavia. The chief of brigade, Lai rtr, commanding the moving co lumn, attacked Eignafco, where 7 or 800 arm ed peasants appealed inclined to defend them selves. He charged them ; killed about a hundred, and dispersed the rest. I immedi ately ordered them to set fire to the village— this, though neccirary, was not the left hor rible. I wa: grievously afiVCtcd ; but I fore f.i w Hill greater evils menacing the town of Pavia. I lummonrd the archbilhop of Milan, and lent him to the diltratted people of Pavia from me with the annexed proclamation. “ At day-break I arrived at Pavia. Theout poft*. of the relicts were fccured. The town appeared numfroufly filled, and in a llate ot defence. The caltie had been taken and our troops priToners. I ordered the artillery up, and after firing fume shot at them, I fmfimon ed the wretches to lay down their arms, and. appeal to the genarofity of the French. They replied that “ while Pavia had walls they would not surrender!” “ General Domartin ordered the fith bat talion of grenadiers to advance with battle-axes in their hands, and two eight pounders in front. The gates were forced. The immense crowd dilperfed, touk fheher in the cellars and upon the house-tops, flriving in vain, by throwing down tiles, to prevent our pafTage through the streets. “ Three times the order to set fire to the city expired upon my lips, when I beheld the garrison of the castle arrive, who, breaking their fetters, came with cries of joy to embrace their deliverers. I ordered them to be called over—not one was wanting. If the blood of a lingle Frenchman had been shed, I would have erected on the ruins of Pavia a column, upon which I would have inferibed— “ Here the city of Pavia vjas !” “ I (hot all the municipality-—arreftfed 200 liollages, and font them into France.
