• Good harvest. The prices however continue to climb until in September (devaluation of the Assignat, storage of the grains, news collects in the course of beating). Alarming financial position: the re-entries of the new taxes are hurt. To solve their problems, the Girondins continue the inflationary policy of the assignat by authorizing new emissions. The Montagnards would like to impose the rich person and to stabilize the course of the assignats, even to remove them.
• 2 - September 5th: The Massacres of September. Hundreds of prisoners, as well as aristocrats, priests and some bishops, appointed like traitors, are considered summarily and massacred. Maillard court.
• With Rheims, Caen, Meaux and Lyon, the local companies also carry out executions. The Commune takes measures of requisition to oblige the peasants to beat cereals, to fix the price and to punish those which store grains. The Executive council (Danton) ratifies these decisions, extends them to the whole of the territory and decides sends it police chiefs in province.

The Parliament ratifies the union of the Comtat Venaissin and Avignon to the French nation. Convention of Gironde until the June 2nd 1793. Brissotins dominate the Parliament as of the first meetings. Pétion is elected president of the Parliament. Danton is isolated Executive council under the threat of an investigation on its management.

• At the end of September at November: Of Gironde against Mountain with national Convention.

• the “Brissotins” (or Of Gironde), convinced revolutionists, supported by the province, sit on the right (Brissot, Vergniaud, Guadet, Pétion of Villeneuve, Condorcet, Gensonné, Barbaroux, Buzot, Dumouriez, Servan, Roland of the Water-splash, Louvet, Isnard). They left the club of the Jacobins in August and meet at Mrs Roland. Concerned of legality and hostile to any interference in the debates of the Parliament, they want to reduce the political role of the capital. The “Montagnards” sit on the left, on the highest benches (Robespierre, Danton, Marat, Billaud-Game preserve, Collot d' Herbois, Saint-Just, Couthon). They are pressed on the Club of the Jacobins and the provincial clubs affiliated. They are ready to take rigorous and extreme measures and find supports in the Commune of Paris. In the Center sit of the moderate republican deputies who play a part of arbitration between the two extremes (Sieyès, Cambacérès, Daunou, Gregoire, Boissy d' Anglas). The Sans-culottes play a big role in the political life since the August 10th. Resulting from the middle-class (tradesmen, craftsmen, small holders), they are based on the Parisian sections and are in favor of popular sovereignty (referendums, right of petition and insurrection). The Club of Cordeliers with Hébert or the movement Enragé (Red-headed Jacques, Momoro, Leclerc) represents the tendencies of without-culotterie.
