HISTORY OF EUROPE.

Thuillcrles ; the same suite of a- 

 partments that had been occupied 

 by the late unfortunate king and 

 queen of France. The two ex- 

 consuls, Sieyes and Ducos, now 

 senators, and the two consuls Cam- 

 baceres and Lebrun, were intrusted 

 with the nomination of a majority 

 of the senate. Their choice in ge- 



neral fell on men of unexception- 

 able characters. As soon as the se- 

 nate was filled up, it proceeded to 

 the nomination of the tribunes and 

 the legislative body. The council 

 of state, chosen by the first consul, 

 was generally allowed to unite great 

 talents with the most perfect inte- 

 grity.
