AN entire change took place in the con- duct of the civil war in La Vendee. After some preliminary negotiations in the begin- ning of February, Charette, and the princi- pal chiefs of his army, on behalf of the Ven- deans, and general Comartin on the part of the Chouans, publicly signified their inten- tion to deliver up their arms and magazines, and to live for the future in subjection to the existing government. Conferences were opened at a farm-house near Nantes be- tween the insurgent chief...s and the deputies from the convention ; and on the seventh of March a treaty of peace was concluded, signed, and ratified, at Nantes.
