If we may judge from the quiet of the capital, the Martial Law has already had so good an effect, as not only to have dispersed the large bands of rioters, but to make people a little more cautious in giving their opinions publicly, and fomenting disturbances.
The King sent the Duke de Liancourt to condole with the poor widow of the Baker, and offer her a present of 6000 livres, to enable her to carry on her business, and that if this sum was not sufficient, she should have more.
Their majesties remain at the Thuilleries, as before, they stir out but little, the King now and then takes a walk in the Gardens but the Queen is never seen out of the Palace.
