Extract of a letter from Montelimar, Dec. 2.

"On Saturday last a confederate camp of between 30 and 40 communities, from Vivarais and Dauphine, was formed on the plain of Auriol, to the number of 12,000 men all armed, with provisions on their mules for two days. These brave citizens took with great solemnity the following oath:--"We French citizens on both sides of the Rhone, from Valence as far as Pouzin, all in brotherly union, rejecting all sorts of distinction, swear on our honor and arms, consecrated to the defence of the State, that our will, strength and fortitude, are devoted to our country, to the support of the laws enacted by the National Assembly, and to the King, who so greatly deserves, and has so just a claim to our love. We swear mutually to assist each other in the performance of so sacred a duty, and to employ our army this very moment, if necessary, for the service of our illustrious brethren of the municipality of Paris. We shall look upon as criminal towards the nation, all those who shall dare to insult, either by words or writings, the decrees of the august Representatives of the nation, and all those who shall not pay all the respect which is due to the most just, most popular, and most beloved of Monarchs."

"Nine commissioners have been named for the correspondence of this patriotic confederacy, who are to meet at Vout, a small town in the Vivarez, on the 24th inst. where the regiments will send some detachments."
