Bertrand de Moleville, of Marine; M. Tarbe, of Finance, and M. Duport du Tertre, of Juftice. But of thefe Mi- nifters M. Bertrand, an open and determined enemy of the Confti- tiition, enjoyed incomparably the moft credit with the King. A reprefentation from the Aflembly againft him was treated with con- tempt, while M. Narbonne, who had refufed any longer to fit in Council with M. Bertrand, was difmifled with difgrace. Both M. de Montmorin and M, de Leflart were, according to the reprefentation... of M. Bertrand, concealed Royalifts, and abfolutely hoftile to the new order of things. The other three Minifters were men of probity and confl:itutional principles, who harboured with extreme reludance any fufpicions of the King. M. Gerville in particular was convinced, upon very falfe ground as it now appears, of the rectitude of the King's intentions ; but the Queen he regarded, M. Bertrand tells us, " as a haughty, perfidious, and wicked woman, who thought of " nothing but re-eftablilhing defpotifm ; and his idea of her Majefty " was fuch, that when the Miniflerial Committee was held in the " Palace, he never would fpeak with freedom, from a notion that the " Queen, or fome of her fpies, liftened at the door, or behind the " wainfcot." But even thofe who were willing and defirous to believe, that the King did not entertain any fixed or regularly- formed defign of fub- verting the Conftitution, could not but acknowledge, that he obfti- nately withheld his fupport and confidence from thofe who were moft zealoufly attached to it.
