PROCLAMATION

Of the Central Administration of the Department of the Loire Inferieure.

The suspension of arms concluded with the rebels is nearly at an end. In a few days either peace will be made, or the war will be renewed,

Peace or War! Inhabitants of the Loire Inferieure, when you can choose between these two extremes, will you balance for an instant? No, your choice cannot be doubtful, and this district shall not stream with blood anew. You are not serious. You will not rally yourselves with banditti of robbers and assassins.

Deluded men, if there yet be any who can think of following a party without hope, and who are already overcome, open your eyes. The terrible lesson of experience is still written on every thing that surrounds you. The fields ravaged, and which still lie uncultivated; these cottages destroyed; these villages burnt and deserted; the depopulation of this unfortunate country- these are the disasters of your first rebellion, and you will prepare for yourselves still greater than these!

You fight, say you, for your religion and for your priests. Your priests are restored to you; all acts of public worship are free, and equally protected. Why then do you resume your arms?

It is for a king? A king cannot longer exist in France! Royalty is forever banished and no man of sense can ever hope for its return.

Is it for the nobles? Remember that privileges alone made the nobles. Call to mind all the exactions of which you were, of which you will again be more than ever the victims! Will you be so blind or not to see that your triumph even if your triumph were not impossible, would be for you the greatest misfortunes? When you can remain free, do not fight that you may once more become slaves.

Every thing that is just, the government has granted you. In promising to forget the past, they offer you a generous pardon. Dread if you do not accept their offer, the accomplishment of their threats.

A numerous army is charged to avenge the republic. In a few days all the ruffians will be annihilated. Hasten then, while yet it is time, to separate yourselves from them. Let them find no where an asylum. In denying to them all protection, merit for yourselves the protection which is offered you.

And you, citizens of all the cantons, numerous friends of peace, unite yourselves-- to arms against frightful depredation. May it be forever extinguished! Guide the Republican columns. Fight in the ranks of the brave men whom victory has constantly crowned. Live the Republic!

We announced in one of our late papers, that the chiefs of the Insurgents of the whole left bank of the Loire, extending to Montaigu, had accepted peace, and taken measures for disbanding all their forces. We now hasten to announce, that the right bank has followed the example of the left.

Letter from General Hedouville. Lieutenant General of the army of the west, and commander in chief.

Angers, 12 Pluvoise (January 21)

Chatillon's division of Chouans has accepted peace. This division comprehends part of the departments of Mayenne and Loire, and of Inferior Loire, situated on the right bank of the river Loire; also the district of Fougere, in the department of Mayenne, and that of the left of the department of Ille et Vilaine. We must expect the district of Chateauneuf in the department of Mayenne and Loire, which is occupied by Bourmont, who has his hands in La Sarthe and Mayenne. If he does not follow the example of d'Autichamp and Chatillon. they will be pursued with the utmost vigour. I have reason to think, that Prievalais, who has his hands in the department of Ille-et-Vilaine, will submit also.

The commander in chief Bruno, is going in pursuit of Georges with so much activity, that the attacks made upon him will no doubt completely finish this intestine war.
