PROCLAMATION.
The'Confuls of the Republic to the French.
Frenchmen , -
From the bosom of a revolution, inspired by a love of
the country, religious diffentions sprung suddenly amongst
you, which became the scourge of your families, the fuel
of factions, and the hope of vour enemies.
An inconsiderate policy attempted to Another them un
der the ruins of religion itfelf. At its voice ceased the pious
solemnities where citizens used to call each other by tfip
tender nanife of brother, and acknowledged themselves all
equals under the hand of God who created them; the dy
ing, abandoned to his funerings, heard no more that con
futing voice which calls Christians to a better lifej and God
himfeff steined exiled from nature.
But the public conscience, and the sentiment of the in
dependence of opinions, rofc up in arms, and, encouraged
by our exterior enemies, their explosion soon spread devast
ation in our departments; fome Frenchmen forgot thev
were Frenchmen, and became the instruments of a foreign
hatred.
On the other hand, pillions let looff unprotected mor
als, unhappiness without, a hope in the future, all com
bined to tfrrow society i'4to disorder.
To flop that disorder it became neceff iry again to set re
ligion on its balls; anu this could not be accomplished o
jtlierwile than by measures avowed by religion itfelf.
1 Rcafon and the example of past ages recommended liav
ing recourse to the foyereign pontiff, in order to unite
hearts and reconcile opinions.
The head of the church has weighed in his wisdom, and
for the interest of the church, the proportions which the
interest of the state had dictated: His voice has been heard
by the ministers of religion: What he approves of the go
vernment agrees to, and the legislators have made it a law
of the republic.
In this manner every element of difeord disappears v and
all scruples which Ckn alarm the conscience, and all tlie
obstacles which malevolence could oppose to the return of
internal peace, have vanished.
Ministers of a religious peace, let tlie moft profound
oblivion cover your diffentions, your misfortunes, and
your faults! Let that religion which unites you attach you
all by the fame ties, by indissoluble ties to the interest of
the country! Display for her all the strength and influence
your ministry gives you over the mind; let your leffpns
and examples inculcate in our young citizens the love of
our institutions, refpeCV and attachment for the tutelary
authorities which have been created to protect them. Let
them learn from you that the god of peace is Jtlfo the god
of tlie armies, and that he fights f6r those who defend the
independence and liberty of France.
Citizens who profels the Protcftant religion, the law has
equally extended to you its solicitude. Lei that morality
which is common to all Christians, that holy, pure, and
fraternal morality, unite them all in the fame love for the
country, in the fame refpeCt for its laws, in the fame af
fection for all t;he members of the great family.
Let no struggles of doCtrine ever alter thole ftntiments
which religion inspires and commands.
Frenchmen! Let us all be united for the happiness of
the country and of humanity. Let that religion wfijch
has civilized Europe become again the bond of union to
draw closer tlie afleCtion of its inhabitants, and let the
virtues it requires be always associated with th§ knowledge
with which it enlightens us.
The firft consul.
