[BABEUF (Gracchus). Du système de dépopulation, ou La vie et les crimes de Carrier, son procès, et celui du comité révolutionnaire de Nantes. With research and political considerations on the general views of the decemvirate, in the invention of this system; on its main combination with the war of the Vendée; and on the project of its application to all parts of the Republic. In Paris, printed by Franklin, year 3e of the Republic [1794]. In-8, [4] f. (fx-title, title, summary, errata), 194 p. (i.e. 192, skip without mq. from 152 to 155), engraved portrait in frontispiece, 19th c. red half-chagrin, smooth spine, gilt title, gilt and cold filets (some ff. browned).
First edition, new printing with the mention of second edition on the title. It seems that this copy is mainly composed of leaves from the first edition, since only 4 of the 21 errors indicated in the errata are corrected here; it is only at the beginning of the volume that the corrected leaves are noticed.
