lieges ot tonic, and promulgated tnetr notea
Bight, of Men. They had voted that the
legislative power oT the state should be in¬
trusted to a chamber of deputies to be chosen
biennially. They had conferred upon the
king the right of a suspensive veto in its pro¬
ceedings. Scarcity of money and food had
augmented the popular excitement to a de¬
gree of frenzy. The assembly had extended
the right of suffrage to nearly everybody!
had ordered the confiscation of church prop¬
erty for the advantage of the state, and sanc¬
tioned the issue of assignats.
This paper currency was to be reOMBed by
the sale of the confiscated property of the
church and the emigrants (emigres). It re¬
tained a value of above 90 per cent for two
years, after which it began to decline. The
original issue of 1,200,000,000 francs was in¬
creased to nearly 46,000,000,000, beside which
many ski Uf^.counterfeits were manufactured
abroad. Various severe laws were passed to
fix prices and compel the community to ac¬
cept assignats at their face value, but to no
purpose. They fell, in 1795, to a discount of
81 per cent., and at last were redeemed by
government drafts (mandats) at one-thirtieth
of their nominal rate. They were in the end
retired by mandats, authorized by law, bear¬
ing their current value.
THE ENEMIES OF THE KING.
At this period, and long after, the Jacobins
exercised an extraordinary influence. They
were the members of a powerful club which
was instituted in May, 1789. On the removal
of the oonstitutent assembly from Versailles
to Paris, they met in the old convent of Do¬
minican Friars of St. James, or Jacobins, in
the Rue St. Honord They admitted any
citizen MH, presented by four members, and grew
rapidly in numbers, all who had political
the cleverest speakers took part in the
bates, and were anxious to win ever the ma¬
jority, it soon became the controlling agency
of the Revolution.
Tto club gVew so radical and violent that
its founders withdrew, and established the
Society of 1789, inwhlch comparative mod¬
eration prevailed. But this only rendered
the Jacobins more furious. They pervaded
the whole country, having at one time some
1,500 branch societies in all, the branches
acting in accordance with the headquarters
in Park. They published a journal. In addi¬
tion to their ordinary means of correspond¬
ence, and thus reached the remotest corner
of the land. They were the leaders in moat

THE GIRONDISTS.
By this time, various circumstances had
contributed to throw the chief power into the
hands ot the radicals. Of the 745 members
of the new body, most of them bad been
elected by the clubs, They represented every
phase ot democratic 9 opinion, from the mag-
nanimous republicanism aism of of the leaders of the
party, later named the Gironde, to the de¬
structive and rabid extremists. The Giron¬
dists were so styled from the deputies of the
department of leader, Gironde, the considered prominent by the of
party as its most
whom were Vergniaud, Brissot, Condorcet,
Louvet, Fdtion, Barbaroux, Lanjuinais and
Saint-Etienne. They favored warmly the
proclamation of the republic (September,
179S&, but arrayed themselves stoutly against
ultra revolutionists, known as the Montag-
nards. Still, they were reluctantly compelled
by the fierce assaults of the radicals to assent
in part to the execution of Louis. They were
accused of conspiring agsdnst the republic,
and twenty-two of them were arrested, locked
up in the Condergerle, and beheaded.
