Copy of which Resolutions follows : We the Noblemen, Gentlemen, Freeholders, Justices of the Peace, Commissioners of Supply. and Proprietors of Lands in the shire of Ayr, assembled in consequence of pub- lic advertisement,: to consider the propriety of expressing our sentiments and resolutions, 011 the present. crisis— having observed, for some time past with the greatest concern, that doctrine's not only the most seditious and treasonable, but which tend to the subversion of all law and government, have been openly published, circulated and propagated, by factions and designing persons in this country, who have not even scrupled to call to their aid the profligate anarChy of France; whilst at the same time, under the specious pretext of Reform they have been endeavouring to insinuate them- selves into the confidence of the people— Do esteem it a duty incumbent upon us, to declare this our firm and decided opinion. That the British Constitution is the most perfect system of Government, and the best adapted to humane happiness and the posperity of a state, of any that has ever appeared upon earth. That by the successful combination of its mixed Powers we believe, ait that humane wisdom can do is already done, to guard against human imperfection the principle alone being declared unalterable; the mode left to the judgement of the legislature to vary as circumstances require. we therefore be- hold with astonishment and horror. the attempts which have been made to undermine and overturn our beloved Consti- tution, at a period too, when its singular blessings ought to have been most peculiarly felt by all— and we most thank- fully applaud the wise and vigorous measures of Govern- ment which we trust have given an effectual check to the designs of the flagatious, and the and of the unwary. Impressed with these sentiments we Unanimously Resolve-: I. That at the hazard of our lives and fortunes, we will support our King and Constitution, against all foreign or domestic foes. II. That in our several capacties we will exerr ourselves in suppressing the seditious, and ut- ireclaiming the misled. lil'. that we conceive, if any errors exist in the detail or Government, the legislative possesses sufficient power to rectify them. IV. That the present unparalleled. prosperity of the king- dom demonstrates that no evils of such magnitude, as to call for an immediate reform, do exist And, lastly, V that in the momentuous and alarming progress of a neighbouring nation, the avowed enemy of the Monarchy, any discussion of the kind could only tend to embarrass verment, at a time when all hearts and all hands ought to unite in its support. ' The thanks of the meeting were then voted to the Earl of Eglintoun, their PRese ANd to Mr, hamilton of Sundrum, the convener of the County, for his attention in calling the meeting and preparing the Resolutions.

THE Committee of Merchants trading and carrying on the Fishery to the island of Newfoundland, from Gnat Britain, take this public method of informing those who are concerned, in the trade, and whose particular address they are unacquainted with, of their having received from the chief employers in that valuable Fishery, ( residents for the summer season in the island of Newfoundland) a letter in reply to the general one addressed to them by the Ccnunittee, of which the following are the copies. To the MERCHANTS . and EMPLOYERS in the FISHERY, at the Island of Newfoundland. GeNTLEMeN, I am ordered by tbe Committee of Newfoundland trade, to inform you that the bills which were before Parliament at the time you left England, the one entitled " an Act for tbe regulating the Fishery in the Island of Newfoundland," the other the Judicature bill, the former imposing a du- ty of three pence per Gallon upon all Spirits Imported into the island, and obliging every employer to give a list of all his servants to a certain receiver who was to be appointed by the Chief Justice, and to pay to the said Receiver forty shillings for each servant,' and the receiver to provide Vessels for bringing them home, for which trouble he was to receive five percent; and what remained of the forty shillings after the passage was paid to go towards tke ex- pence incurred by this Act, with seVeral other oppressive Classes. — And the latter to give authority to a Chief Justice and assessors to try all causes whatever without a Jury; and a POwer to the said Chief Justice to appoint Assignees to the estates of all Insolvents, with several other alterations in the old and estabished mode of administering Justice : are the first not passed into law, and the Judicature bill modified as not to be so very injurous as was designed, and to continue but for one year. And the trade and fishery of the island of Newfoundland to; be taken into considerarion early in the next Sessions of Parliament by a Committee of the honourable house, and such clauses in the Act of Parliament . ( which now regulates the Fishery) as are found oppressive and destructive to Its welfare, will be repealed; and such future regulations made as will receive the trade an Fishery, which hath been sinking to ruin for many years past. I am, Gentlemen, with great respeCt, Your most obedient, humble Servant, JOHN TEED, Secretary to the Newfoundland Committee. Dartmouth, June 8th, 1792.

On the 2 7th of last month tbe Germanic Diet held a Session extraordinary during the vacation, reflecting the Decree of Commission containing the Imperial Ratification relative to the war against France, which was accompanied by various pieces and circular letters from the EMPEROR to the re- spective circles, exhorting them to a speedy per- formance of their engagements and duties towards the empire, and the obligations which they have en- tered into by the treaty of general alliance and mutual guarantry subsisting between the members of the Germanic corps, without any exception or restriction respecting any system of neutrality. To the Decree is also added avocatory and pro- hibitory mandates,. " to recal all vassals or subjects of the EMPEROR, or the Empire, in the service of France, ar. d to prohibit the supplying of the French with provisions, ammunition, The Emperor recommends to the deliberation of the States some points of the first; Decree of Commission, on which the Diet had not yet determined ; amongst those is the nomination of a General Commander in chief of the united forces of the empire. This measure, however, will probably not be necessary, as the troops of the different German Princes will not act conjointly amongst themselves but in concert with the Prussian and Austrian armies. This proportion was made by the Court of Berlin to the Court of Vienna, and, according to the ideas which have, been sug- gested on that subject, there will only he two principal armies, the one Austrian, the other prussian, divided into different corps, as occurrences may render necessary. To the prussian army will be joined the Saxon, Hanoverian, and Hessian troops ; to the Emperor's forces will be added the contingencies of the Elector Palatine, the Duke de Wurtemberg, and the other Princes or States of the Circles of Franconia and Suabia. This plan will meet with no difficulty on the part of the Chancery State of Vienna ; but some difficulty occurs from the Aulic Chancery of the Empire, on account of the incorporation of the German troops in the Austrian and prussian armies, as it may be considered inconsistent with the ancient custom and dignity of the Germanic corns. These reasons, however, have, it seems, been over- ruled, and every thinj is arranging conformably to the proposition of the Conrt of Berlin. The contin- gencies of S. ixony and Hanover are on their march, and the Austrian troops are also moving. They are formed into two distinct corps j tbe one is marching into quarters of cantonment between Philipsbourg and Heidelberg, and the other, con- sisting of about 12,000 men, is proceeding towards Wurtzbourg, which is its concentral point. This corps will ad in concert with the Prussians to reduce Mentz, fhould the latter not be strong enough to at- tack Custine; but if there is no occasion for them, the Imperialists will act separately ; and in general, the plan common operation between the Courts cf Berlin and Vienna is combined in such a man- ner, that the motions and enterprises of their forces will correspond ; but, unless necessity requires it, they will act separately. For the better mainte- nance of this correspondence, and to secure the success of their measures, Lieutenant- General Count WARTENSLEBEN set off on the 19th of De- cember from Vienna for Frankfort, to arrange definitively ( with the Prussian Monarch, who is there) the plan of the campaign, the execution of whi : h will be entrusted to Field- Marshal Prince de SAXE- COBOURG, Generalissimo of the Austrian forces, and tlie reigning Duke of BRUNSWICK, who retains the command in chief of the Prussian armies. The imperial regiments pass by for Nuremberg, ar. d when they are all arrived Will be commanded by General Baron de WURMSER and Count de FERRARI. The Imperial forces now on their march for the Rhine amount t° 30,000 men :— they, however, will shortly be followed by seven battalions and 11 divisions of cavalry more. This new Corps will be commanded by Lieutenant- Generals de SPLEIN and d'EDER, aud Major- Ge nerals de BRUCKLACK and de HUTTEN ; and they, in fine, write from Vienna, that, besides these additional forccs, all the garrison of that resi- dence h. tv; received orders to hold themselves in readiness to march to Germany; they consist of three battalions of grenadiers, teve of fusileers, ar} d three divisions of cavalry ; and orders have already been sent to other troops from the interior provinces to replace them at Vienna. A large train of artil- lery, ammunuition, Sf- z. has been sent off from Prague for Mentz. FRANCE, COPY OF A LeTTER FROM CITIZEN CHAuvELIN, TO LORD GRENVIlle. January 7, 1793 Second year of the Republic. MY LORD, The King of Engltnd, by a proclamation of November 15th, has prohibited the exportation of flower and grain. Several vessels legally loaded and ready to sail for France, with cargoes of those articles, considerable purchases of which the French Government ordered to be made in the ports of England, have been stopped, notwithstand- ing the law which declares that the ports shall not be shut till fifteen days after the date of the pro- clamation, and the British Ministry themselves have acknowledged the irregularity of these steps, by applying to Parliament for a bill of indemnity. The French Government, however, then trusting to the good dispositions of tbe British Court, con- sidered these vigorous measures as only resulting from the wisdom and precaution of ths Ministry, and did not think there was any occasion for remon- strating against them. Another proclamation which followed the first has excepted all foreign corn from the prohibition ef being exported. This was guaranteeing to all the nations of Europe, the security of their transports by removing authentic and solemn manner doubt which might be occasioned by the first pro- clamation; it was securing to the English com- merce considerable advantages, and was above all marking out the ports of Great Britain, as a sacred asylum to those vessels loaded with flour or grain for France, which for convenience, cr from neces- sity, might find it requisite to touch there by the way. Four weeks after this declaration some vessels loaded with foreign grain, on account of France, were stopped in the British ports, and when the merchants commissiond by the French Govern- ment, remonstrated against this procedure, they were cooly told that it was by the orders of Govern- ment. France, my Lord, might have been induced to believe, that new and unexpected " information re- specting the state of provisions in Great Britain, had obeyed government to pursue these measures, but the English government themselves have taken cure to prove to Europe that they had no other mo- tives than a hostile intention against France, if it be true that the officers of the Customs have re- ceived orders to permit the exportation of foreign corn to all ports except those of France. This fact, my Lord, has been attested to me by respect- able authority, and however accumulated may be the symptoms of ill will and jealousy which France has for some time past seen in the British cabinet, I still allow myself to doubt them. The first mo ment I heard of them, I should, my Lord, have waited upon you to assure you in person of their truth or falsity, had not the determination made by his Britannick Majesty to break off during the present circumstances all communication between the governments of the two countri s, rendered amicable and friendly steps more difficult in pro- portion as they have become necessary. But I have considered, my Lord, that when the question of war or peace between two power- ful nations is in agitation, that which shows a de- sire of coming to a full explanation, and which longest endeavours to preserve the last bond of friendship and union, is that alone which shews itself truly great and respectable. I request you, therefore^ my Lord, in the name of public faith, in the name of justice, and of humanity, to clear up tn me facts which I will not characterise, and which the French nation will consider as established even by your silence, or by the refusal of an an- swer. Think, my Lord, that in the midst of peace, while every appearance of war is at a distance, the Englifh Government have taken advantage cf the con- fidence of the European merchants, and of the secue rity of a neighbouring and friendly country, to draw into their ports provisions, which they supposed or knew were wanted in that country. Should the f me ministry now take advantage of the first hos- tile meaures, which they have either pursued or provoked, to detain thefe provifions, in hopes, per- il ips, that, amidst the agitation of that country, to raise apprehensions of a famine, would be sufficient to occasion one, their only reward for such an act of perfidy, and even for the success of their en- terprise, would be the shame of having employed a measure which, even in the time of the most terrible war, a generous and enlightened nation ought to abhor, and of having degraded the credit of the English commerce, by violating the sacred asylum of its markets. I have the honour to be, with sentiments of high esteem, & c. ( Signed) CHAUVELIN. NATIONAL CONVENTION. THURSDAY, JANUARY 17. The Appeal Nominal on the question !' What punishment ought to be inflicted on Louis Capet ?" continued without intermission through the whole of the preceding night, each Member assigning reasons for his opinion. The most remarkable were as follows. YSABAU—" It is as much repugnant to my cha- racter as to my principles to pronounce fentence of death against any man except a tyrant, for a ty- rant appears to me not te be a man. At present it is not I who pronounce that sentence but the law. This shall be the first and only time of my life, that terrible word shall proceed from my mouth ; for I should not continue in existence had my country another king to condemn. I vote for the punishment of death." DESTIGOYTE— I will not enter into any com- position with tyrants. I vote for death and speedy execution of the sentence." GARRAN DE COULON.—" I am of opinion, that we cannot exercise, at the same time, the func- tions of Accusers, Judges, and Jury. The peo- ple did not delegate to us the right of pronouncing without their ratification. I consider that to be ty- ranny, when men place themselves above that ever sacred law, the Sovereignty of the People. I re- spect the opinions of those who entertain sentiments different from mine, but I cannot adopt them." CHABOT.—" I vote for death, because Louis has been a tyrant; becaufe he is still one ; and be- cause he may again become so." LouVET.—" I vote for death, but with this express modification, that the execution of the sentence shall not take place until the people have sanctioned the Constitution which you are about to present to them." PONS DE VERDUN—" Louis has gone beyond the bounds cf his constitutional inviolability. I see the same difference between those crimes pro- hilated, and those of which he has rendered him- self guilty, as between poisoning and assassination By exceeding the measure of the crime the punish- ment incurred should be the greater. Thea King. as an individual, has placed himself in regard to punishment on a footing w'tli unprivileged cps- spirators, for in regard to criminality he has been always priviledged. He is more criminal than they- Should this be a reafon for treating him with less severity? The rights of man loudly exclaim against such injustice. They would reproach me with dis- guising it under the name of policy ; with CoVer- ing it under the pusillanimous pretence of false in- competence; and with weakness should I suffer myself to be frightened with vain phantoms. Louis has been accused by the whole nation of having conspired against it. We have declared him guiltv. My conscience bids me open the penal code. It pronounces against Louis the existence of death, which several of his accomplices have already suf- fered." CAMBACERES.—" The National Convention in ' my opinion, ought to decree that Louis has In- curred the punishment pronounced by the law against conspirators. The execution cf this De- cree, ought, however, to be suspended till the ces- sation of hostilities, when the Convention, or tbe Legislative Body who shall succeed it, may finally determine respecting the fate of Louis, who, in the mean time, should be kept in confinement. But in case the enemies of the Republic shall in- vade the French territories, the Decree ought that instant to be put in execution." J. B. LACASTE, DU Cantal—' The tyrant while alive, is like a light house to our internal and external enemies—. When dead he will be a terror to the combined Kings, and to their satellites. His ghost will disconcert the projects of traitors, put an end to faction and disturbance, give peace to the Republic, an dat length destroy those preju- dices which have too long disturbed mankind- The tyrant has been declared guilty of the greatest of crimes—^ of attempting to enflave the nation. The law pronounces death against such an attempt- Submissive to the law, I vote for death." ROBERSPIERRE—" Because you have established yourselves the judges of Louis, without the usual forms, are you less his judges ? You cannot sepa- rate your quality of Judge from that of Legislator, These two qualities are indivisible. You have acknowledged the crimes of the tyrant. It is your duty to punish them. No consideration should make you hesitate respecting the punishment referred for the greatest criminal that ever existed. I vote for the punishment of death." DANTON—" I am not one of those Statesmen who know not how to determine but from political considerations. I am a Republicin and do not he. sitate respecting the choice of that punishmsnt re- served for Louis the last. You ought to strike a terror into tyrants by an inflexibility of character — I vote for the punishment of death." MANUEL.—" Some have spoken to us of the Ro- mans. Their example has been cited; but ought we! can we dispense with acknowledging this eternal truth, that the right of death belongs only to nature. Had Louis been brought before ordinary Judges, they could not have avoided pronouncing the punishment of death ; but we, Representatives of the people, who are not bound to consult a penal code, ridicu- lously atrocious— We, whom the nation has sent to discover error, and to proclaim truth, do not 1K- Sitate to say, that the life of a man, though crimi- nal, is not at the disposal of the Society. I vote for the imprisonment of the tyrant during the con- tinuance of the war, in that place where the vic- tims of his despotism languished ; and far his ex- pulsion when peace shall be secured," ROBERT—" I vote for death ; and if any re- gret remains to me, it is, that my competence does not extend to all tyrants. I would condemn them all to death." FRERON—" Were it possible that the majority should determine upon him imprisonment, I would move that a veil might be thrown over the bust of- Brutus. I vote for death." ' OSSELIN—" I regret that the laws of my country pronounce the punishment of death against those who are guilty of great crimes. The tedi- ous punishment of imprisonment for life would be much more beneficial to society. But as the law has not yet been changed, I vote that Louis may be put to death." BARRERE—" The tree of liberty does not flourish, unless moistened with the blood of Kings. i vote for death." EGALITE—" Those who have made, or may make attempts against the Sovereignty of the Peo- ple deserve death. I vote for death." LiLLEry—" My constituents have not delegat- ed to me, the absurd power of being both accuser and judge. I cannot therefore in this cause, exer- cise the functions of both these characters. alty will become impossible if you preserve the life of Louis. His son cannot become dangerous while educated under the ignominy of his father. We are continually told of a powerful faction— a : faction who aspire at tyranny. Let that faction be shewn to us, and we will combat them with cou- rage. I vote for the confinement of Louis." LASOURCE—" I have delivered my opinion in writing. Louis must either reign or be put to death. If the Convention have not the courage to strike the first person who may dare to shew ambi- tious views, it will be handed down, to posterity covered with opprobium— I vote for death." ISNARD—" I declared in the Legislative Assem- bly, that were my hand armed, with thunderbolts, I would hurl them against the first man who might dare to make - any attempts against the liberty of my country. I vote then for the death of Louis ; but as his brothers are no less criminal than he, I demand that they may be tried within 24 hours, by some tribunal which you may appoint, in order' that they may be executed in effigy by the side of the late King." . GOUPILLEAU.—" I vote for death, but to avoid disturbance, I desire that it may not be deferred one moment." POULAIN GRANDPRE—" I vote for death un- der that express condition, that it shall be deferred till the people have accepted the Constitution, un- less our enemies shall have entered the French ter- ritories." QUiNETTE.—" I pronounce death I and I here solemnly engage to pronounce the same sentence against all those who may attempt to violate the li- berty of my country." JeAN DE BRIE—" I pronounce the death of the tyrant, becaufe I consider his death as the death- blow to faction." CONDORCET—" I declare that no circumstance except the present could induce me to pronounce sentence of death against any One. I request that the severest punishment, next to death, maybe in flicted on Lcuis ; but in case death shall be pro- nounced against him, I request that the political consideration presented by Machle, viz. ' Whether the punishment ought to be accelerated or retarded ? may be discussed." LAKANAL—" A republican is a man of few words. The motives of my opinion are here, [ laying his hand upon his heart] I vote for death." BARBAROUX—" I vote for the death of the ty- rant. In a few moments I shall vote for the ex- pulsion of his family." DucOs—" At a time when I am about to pro- nounce on the fate of Louis, the ci- devant King, my duty to my constituents and to my conscience, requires that I should declare those principles which have directed my judgement and opinion. I never thought that the National Convention ought to judge Louis. I never doubted that they had a right to do so; but I thought it was not proper for them to exercise that right. They dccreed, that they would try him. Had a conscious sense of my duty, and of my incompetence, rejected that De- cree, no power on earth could have forced me to have executed it. It was repugnant only to my opinion, and my opinion was silent before that of the majority. I voted against submitting the sen- tence to the sanction - of the people, because this appeared to me subversive cf every prin- ciple of representative Government under which I wish to live and die for it is clear to me as de- monstration, that there can be no liberty but under such a Government; and because the people cannot at the same time preserve and delegate the exercise of their powers, have representatives and be unrepre- sented. With regard to the forms employed, in conducting this business, I am of opinion they have gone beyond the usual rules. As the trial ought to have gone beyond them. on account of the singular state of the accused, andl the particular nature cf the accusation, I thought it necessity to examine whether they were conformable to the laws and usages of the tribunal ; but if they were sufficient to convince me, the division of the judiciary functions into accusers, jury and judge, by the law, is at once a precaution and means taken by society for the better administration of justice— this division however is not justice. Jus- tice consists in a just application of law to facts. This is what I ought to look for in thc present trial. I declare that the extraordinary state of the accused could alone make me conceive and approve the extraordinary form of the sentence, which ought to be singular, as the cause which it is about to determine. I de- clare besides, that if the Convention should wish to pass a second sentence against a common citizen, by employing the same Violation of forms, 1 should consider it as criminal and tyrannical, and I should denounce it to the French nation. Citizens, it evidently appears to me, from an attentive exami- Louis during the course of the Legislative Assembly and from the papers found either in the Thuille- ries, or at the house of the Intendant of the Civil List, that Louis, the ci- devant King, is convicted of having conspired against the general safety of the State, and against the liberty of the nation ; and that he consequently ought to undergo the punish- ment appointed by the penal code for crimes of that nature. " Citizens, to condemn a man to death, is of all the sacrifices which I have made to my country, that alone which ought to be accounted as any thing." SALLE—" Nothing, at present, remains to us but to choose the evils of our country. Louis luckily leaves, of all his relations, that one who is most calculated to inspire us with disgust for roy- alty." " VILLETE—" I vote for the confinement of Louis as an hostage of peace. He is overturned amidst the ruins of the throne, and will now close up every avenue to it." ANACHARSIS CLOOTS--" In the name of the Human Race I vote for the death of Louis." THOMAS PAYNE—" I vote for the provisional confinement of Louis, and for his expulsion aftee the war." BRISSOT.— It would have been desireable that the punishment to be inflicted on Louis whould have been proncunced by the whole nation. It would have been the best method of carrying along with us the sentiments of the neighbouring nations, and of defeating the projects of the tyrants of Eu- rope, who desire the punishment of Louis, in order more successively to excite indignation and hatred against the National Convention. But as the As- sembly have thought proper to reject the appeal to the people, I am now of opinion, that the only way of avoiding the dangers which threaten us, is to pronounce the punishment of death against Louis, and defer its execution to the moment when the people shall have sanctioned the consti- tution which we shall present them. I know that in some sense, the opinion which I deliver may be calumniated, I have only to offer, in reply to my enemies, my honourable poverty. The moment, perhaps, is not distant, when I shall bequeath it to my children ; but while I live, I will exert my- self, with all my power, for the maintenance of order ; without which, a Republic can only be a Combination of ruffians. I declare as a man who has a profound knowledge of our success, of our resources, and of those of the powers who threaten us, that we have nothing to fear from Kings, and their sattelites ; and, I add, that if we do not de- stroy that system of disorganization which has raised its audacious head, the Republic is lost." The appeal nominal was terminated at six o'clock ; then SALLES, the Secretary, presented himself at the tribune, to read letters. Several members de- manded what those letters were ? The President said, that the first was from the defenders of Louis Capet; and the second from the Minister of Fo- reign Affairs ; to which was subjoined one from the Spanifh Ambassador. GARRON demanded that they should pass to the Order of the Day with respect to the letter from the Envoy of Spain, but that they should hear the defenders of Louis Capet, because, at every pe- riod of a cause, the defenders of a criminal have a right to be heard. ANTAN.—" I am astonished, that they should speak of hearing the defenders of Louis before the result of the Appeal Nominal is proclaimed. Your Decree ought to be proclaimed in the first instance ; and if afterwards I consent that the defenders should be heard, it is because it is possible that they may have some new pieces to present; for that is the only circumstance which can legally fanction their con- duct. With respect to the Ambassador of Spain, I do not believe that any human power can think of influencing you. Were the majority of my opinion, war should be declared against Spain for the medi- tated harangue of its Ambassador. I am persuaded, that in a conflict with Europe, in order to be con- querors, it is necessary that we should be aggressors. I already think that we are in open war with Spain. It refused asknoWledge the representatives of the People, and now it attempts to impose upon us conditions. Let us reply as becomes the dignity of the French people. Let us tell them that the soldiers who conquered at Jemappe will still con- quer, and will destroy, if necessary, all the Kings of Europe, after having condemned their own. Such is my opinion." GENSONNE—" The defenders of Louis Ca- pet ought not to be heard till the Decree should be pronounced. As to reading the official letter of Spain, I demand that the Assembly should treat it in a manner worthy of itself, by passing to the Order of the Day. We have declared war against the Emperor, bccause he interfered in Spain mean f The letter in question must contain either demands, menaces, or offers of mediation. Let us consecrate our independence by declaring that we will hear no piece which comes from fo- reign powers." ' The Assembly closed the discussion by passing to the Order of the Day on the letter of the Envoy of Spain. ROBERSPIERRE opposed the admission of the defenders of the accused. The Assembly decreed that they should be admitted, after the result of the Appeal Nominal should be proclaimed. GARAND demanded of the Assembly to decide what should be the nature of the suffrages of those who had voted for death with restrictions ? He thought that their opinion for death ought to be reckoned a formal opinion, referring, for a further discussion on the proposed restrictions. This opinion was adopted. Before the result of thc scrutiny could be pro- claimed, a Deputy who had been absent from in- disposition, demanded to give his opinion. This demand excited some noise. A Member said, in a low tone, that the majority had only one voice. At that moment, Manuel, the Secretary, was pre- paring to depart.; A great number of Members called out, that he ought to be arrested— that he, was suspected of having wished to deceive the As- sembly on the result of the appeal nominal. GORSAS, the Secretary, declared, that the mi- jority was more strong than they had said, and that another Manuel was not engaged in collecting the voices. Tranquillity was restored in the Assembly. The tumult had been so great a few minutes before, as to force the Prefident to put on his hat. The De- puty who had been indisposed, voted for detention and banishment. The President announced, that he was going to proclaim the result of the appeal nominal. The most profound silence prevailed for several minutes. He said, " The Assembly is composed of seven hundred and forty- five Members— one of these is dead, six indisposed, two absent without cause, and censured in the minutes conformable to the decree, eleven absent upon commissions, and four who do not vote, making,' in all, twenty- three Members, who have given no opinion. The number of votes is thus reduced to seven hundred and twenty- one. In order that there may be a majority, it is neces- sary that there should be an union of three hundred and sixty- one suffiages-. Twcnty- one Members have voted for death, with the de- mand of a discussion on the period of his execu- tion ; one has voted for death, with the reserve of its commutation or delay ; two for death, not to be carried into execution till peace unless in the case of invasion of the French territory, in which instance, to be inflicted within twenty- four hours after such invasion has taken place ; two for chains, three hundred and nineteen for imprisonment and banishment; three hundred and sixty- six for death " . \ The PRESIDENT then, lowering the tone of his voice, amidst the most profound and awful silence, proceeded to pronounce the following Sentence: " I DECLARE, THEN, IN THE NAME OF THE CONVENTION, THAT THE PUNISHMENT WHICH IT PRONOUNCES AGAINST LOUIS CAPET IS— DEATH !" The three Defenders of Louis Capet were then admitted to the bar. One of them, DESEZE, said, " Citizens, Representatives, the law and the decrees have entrusted to us the sacred function of the defence of Louis. We come, with regret, to present to you the last act of our function. Louis has given to us his express charge to read to you a letter signed with his own hand, of which the fol- lowing is a copy : LETTER FROM LOUIS. " I owe to my own honor, I owe to my fami- ly, not to subscribe to a sentence which declares me guilty of a crime with which I cannot accuse myself In consequence, I appeal to the Na- tion, from the sentence of its representatives ; and I commit, by these presents, to the fidelity of my Defenders, to- make known to the Nati- onal Convention this Appeal by all the means in their power, and to demand, that mention of it be made in the minutes of their sittings. " Given at Paris, the 16th January, 1793. ( Signed) " LOUIS." DESEZE then resumed the discourse. He re- minded the Assembly that the Decree of Death had only been pronounced- by a majority of five voices, while the other part of the Assembly were of opinion that the safety of the country required another decision. He warmly conjured them to examine anew the question of Appeal and to grant to humanity, to the interest of the State, all that justice might not seem imperiously to claim. TRONCHET, another ot the Defenders of Louis CAPET, protested against the Decree, by which the Assembly had declared that sentence should be passed, like its other decrees, by an absolute majori- ty. He demanded the repeal of the Decree, ob- serving, that as the Penal Code had served as the basis of the opinion of those who had pronounced the punishment of death, the Assembly ought, con- formably to that code, not to pronounce the punish- ment except by two thirds of the voices. LAMAIGNON MALESHERPES, the third Counsel of Louis, begged the Convention to allow him till to- morrow to present some observations on that kind of majority, which to him seemed necessary, before sentence should have been pronounced. He regreted that he could not speak extempore with sufficient facility to enable him to explain his ideas. The PRESIDENI informed the Counsel that the Convention would take their requests into consider- ation and invited them to the honours of the Sit- ting. MERLIN, of Douay, refuted the objection made by Tronchet, by saying, that the penal code required a majority of two thirds not for the application of punishment, but for the dcclaration of facts; and that the law, in regard to punishment, required only an absolute majority. On a motion made by Roberspierre the Conven- tion decreed, 1. That the appeal interposed by Louis Capet is null, being contrary to the rights of the people and to the power of national representation ; and that all citizens are forbidden to support this appeal under pain of being punished as disturbers of pub- lic tranquillity. II. That there are no grounds for attending to the remonstranccs of the Counsel of Louis in re- gard to the nature of the majority which passed sen- tence upon him. The discussion Of the question, whether it would be proper to suspend the execution of the sentence passed against Louis Capet, was adjourned to next day. The Convention rose at eleven at night, after a sitting which continued thirty- six hours. PARIS, JAN. 18. Notwithstanding the general consternation oc_ casioned by the sentence passed against the unfor. tunate Louis, tranquillity prevails here at present What the consequences may be to this devoted country, God only knows 1 The violent party, as you may see by the proceedings of the Convention, carry every thing before them. The moderate party are intimidated, and should the friends of anarchy, who abound in every greatt city, and particularly in Paris, to which a number of desperate miscreants, under the pretence cf supporting the cause of liberty, have flocked from all parts Europe, take advantage of the present agitated state of the public mind, the blackest scenes of horror may be the consequence. We are not entirely free from apprehensions of some mischief being excited by the Federates; Yes- terday, at noon, a great number of them from all the Departments proceeded to the place du Carousel, and took an Oath to exterminate all tyrants under whatever denomination they might be. The Minister of the Marine has written a cir- cular letter, addressed to the Friends of Liberty and Equality in the marjjme cities, full of the most violent invectives against the British government. and conceived in such terms as plainly to prove that the Executive Council consider a rupture with England as unavoidable. In this piece he talks With confidence of the resources of France, counts upon the co operation of the disaffected in Britain, and speaks cf nothing less than a descent upon its coasts for the purpose of punishing its Ministers, and giving fraternity to its people.-— People in general, however, dread such a war as the greatest calamity that could possibly befall France, and consider the threat of the Minister as a matter much easier proposed than executed. LONDON. TUESDAY, JANUARY 22. The Duke of CLARENCE was much better yeSter- day. His Royal Highness arm is set, and we hope is in a fair way of recovery. The House of Lords met this day for dispatch of business, pursuant. to their adjournracnt. The House of Commons meet to- morrow.
