France was in the throes of revolution, and at the same time fighting a war against other nations which wanted the King back on his throne. The purpose of the committee, set up under the slogan 'La Patrie en Danger', was to rid the country of those elements within it which sympathized with the aims of the country's enemies. This of course included the King, who was the first to go.
The protection and preservation of the French Revolution.
The Committee Of Public Safety is basically just a name, and an ironic one at that. It was composed of a few men, one of which was Robespierre, and they ran the country. This is why the French Revolution at this point was contradicting itself; it was turning into an oligarchy where 3-4 men called all the shots. A Democracy? Not even close.
It was used as an instrument of terror for the protection of the French Revolution.

Georges Danton is considered one of the leading forces in the French Revolution and the establishment of the First French Republic. Danton fell out of favor when the radicals within the revolutionary hierarchy accused him of leniency. He was killed by the guillotine in 1794.
Jean-Paul Marat was a leader of the French revolution. He was the editor of "L'ami du peuple" ("Friend of the people"). The newspaper that named people who were to be executed during the Terror.
Thermidor was a month in the Republican calendar (see http://www.grenfell-banks.com/repubcal.htm). It was in this month that the Committee of Public Safety turned against Robespierre, executed him and ended the Reign of Terreor.
The Committee of Public Safety was started by Robespierre and revolutionary leaders in an effort to overthrow the government and retain national security. The Committee gained 14 armies and got many provisions. What is ironic is that the Committee of Public Safety, under Robespierre's now dictatorship, started the "Reign of Terror" where all anti-revolutionaries were killed by the guillotine. So the Committee of Public Safety, in turn, killed over 20,000 people.
