Lombardy as far as the Adige, the Legations, the Duchy of Modena, had sent their deputies to France, prepared to vote by acclamation for the constitution, which had been carefully prepared by several leading Italians under the eyes of the First Consul. The Consulte of Milan had accepted it.

Chaunge purpose, when thou perceivest that the enemie hath forseene it. Consulte with many of those thinges, which thou oughtest to dooe: the same that thou wilt after dooe, conferre with fewe. Souldiours when thei abide at home, are mainteined with feare and punishemente, after when thei ar led to the warre with hope and with rewarde.

'Il n'a pas pris une part directe au mouvement des affaires de son pays, n'ayant siege ni dans le parlement ni dans aucun cabinet; mais son influence etait considerable: sans cesse consulte, souvent charge de messages importants; enfin sa plume, sa plume surtout, ne restait jamais inactive, et ses ecrits portaient coup.

To the request of the Consulte, in humble terms, the general replied, "I find no one among you who has sufficient claims upon public opinion who would be sufficiently independent of local influences who, in short, has rendered to his country sufficiently great services, for me to trust him with the first magistracy."

At the same time the journals were filled with recollections of the Revolution, raked up for the purpose of connecting with past crimes the individuals on whom it was now wished to cast odium. It was decreed that a hundred persons should be banished; and the senate established its character for complaisance by passing a 'Senatus- consulte' conformable to the wishes of the First Consul.

The Consulte opened its sittings with distinction; and soon the Italian deputies understood who was the president designed for them by the solicitude of General Bonaparte.

Le Chirurgien, qui consulte, pretend, par le moyen d'une petite canulle, de pouvoir baptiser immediatement l'enfant, sans faire aucun tort a la mere. Il demand si ce moyen, qu'il vient de proposer, est permis & legitime, & s'il peut s'en servir dans les cas qu'il vient d'exposer. Reponse Le Conseil estime, que la question proposee souffre de grandes difficultes.
