demanded a Constitution。 Very well； here it is 。 。 。 。 Respect
for persons and property is amply secured in it。 Yes； more definitely
than in any other constitution。 Does it provide for its own revision？

〃Although we were assured that we should pass only through Maratist
towns； we had the satisfaction of finding nearly all the inhabitants
regarding Marat with horror。 They had indeed accepted the
Constitution offered by the Committee of Public Safety； but solely to
end the matter and on conditions which would speak well for them； for；
everywhere the renewal of the Convention was exacted and the
punishment of assaults made on it。〃 This desire； and others analogous
to it； are given in the procès…verbaux of many of the primary
assemblies （Archives Nationales； B。 II。； 23）； for example； in those
of the thirteen cantons of Ain。 A demand is made； furthermore； for
the reintegration of the Twenty…two； the abolition of the
revolutionary tribunal； the suppression of absolute proconsulates； the
organization of a department guard for securing the future of the
Convention； the discharge of the revolutionary army； etc。
