Charles de Lameth happened at the moment to be president of the Assembly, and with them Lafayette now concerted his measnres for the suppression of the coming outbreak. Before the day appointed it became known to them that there was a division in the Jacobin councils. There was in the club a man named Brissot, of low birth, and character as base as that of any one who rose... to emi- nence in these imhappy times, when infamy of some kind was the almost indispensable passport to power ; but of considerable capacity, especially as a writer of pamphlets and libels ; the composition of such for hire, in Paris and in London, had been for some time his chief means of livelihood ; and since the outbreak of the revolution he had been busy in exciting the worst passions of the mob as editor of a paper which he called " Le Patriote Frangais," and which was little less fero- ciousin its exhortations than Marat's "Ami du Peuple;" and to that he now added another, ''Le Eepublicain."
