Capable of keeping Austria in check, formidable as she was by the acquisition of the Venetian territory ; but the republic could acquire the ne- cessary strength only by a form of laws conducive to stability. Various were the dispositions, the interests, and the opinions, of the Cisalpine popu- lation ; nor could Venetians, Milanese, Modenese, Novarese, and Bolognese, concur in the same desires, or even wish exactly the same thing. The traces of ancient rivalry were visible : sepa- rate and dis...sentient parts could never form one strong united body, if a strict government and a vigorous hand did not constrain them to unity of design. A new regimen was become necessary to concord and firm peace with other powers. It was also requisite to the tranquillity of the Cisal- pine republic, and by the happy fortunes to which they were invited. " Whilst these ideas were disseminated amongst the people, Petiet negociated with the chiefs of the republic, in order that the imperative com- mands of the Consul might appear to be the desires and the spontaneous supplications of the nation.
