ft incumbent on them to proceed imme
diately to till up the vacancies in the
Directory. We cannot but observe
that we are now placed in circumdan
ces trulyextraordinary, and so very ex
traordinary that nobody can tell any
thing about the matter.—We have all
come here asking one another—" What
• isthe danger? Where areour Enemies ?"
You have heard a resignation announc
ed, but is not this resignation the effect
of these extraordinary circumstances ?"
—(Murmurs.)
At this moment the doors of the Hall
opened. General Buonaparte appeared
accompanied by an - Fort of between
twenty and thirty persons, and walked
up towards the Pretident,
A vehement agitation immediately
arose among part of the Members, who
darted precipitately from their feats to
wards Buonaparte, surrounded him,
and pushed him back with violence.
In the nQft of this tumult a perlon
was heard vociferating the cry of "Out
law him; Outlaw him! Outlaw him !"
One or two voices were heard exclaim
ing : " This id the moment to deliver
France !''
A member attempted to stab him
with a dagger, but the blow was ward
ed off by a grenadier.
Buonaparte hepped Back firmly & or
dered the grenadiers to withdraw. He
went along with them out of the hall.
The tumult increased to the most
violent, pitch. All the members quit
ted their feats, and walked through the
hall in disorder, conversing with the
greatest warmth and vehemence. The
tribune was choaked up by a crowd of
members.
By degrees calm was restored,
The Pref dent —“ The extreme agi
tation which has appeared in this As
sembly is doubtless a proof that the
love of the Republic, that the paflion
for liberty, enflames every heart. But
in feeing the General of the Guard of
the Legislative body appear in this hall,
you ought not to have fufpeded him
of any odious designs. You ought not
thus to have mildewed the laurels of
a man who has rendered signal services
to his country. He came to inform
you of the critical situation in which
the Republic is placed. He came to
difeharge the duty which the character
with which he is invested imposes on
him. I move that every inquiry be
made that is calculated to remove the
disquietudes of the Council."
A. member, with vehemence, “ Bu
onaparte lias tarnished his glory. I
devote him to ignominy, to the execra
tion of Republicans, and of every
Frenchman !,,
Another member—"l move that the
Council Ihall instantly decide how far
the fandity of their place of meeting,
and the police of the two Councils,
- Ihall extend."
Bertrand of Calvados—" When
the council of elders transferred the
national representation to St. Cloud,
they exercised a right which by the con
stitution belongs to them. But when
they appointed a commandant of the
guard of the legislative body, they ex
ceeded their rights and their powers ;
they openly infringed the constitution.
I move that you annul this nomination
as illegal and unconstitutional and that
you instantly decree that Gen. Buon
aparte is not commandant of the leg
illative body." *
"Seconded ! Seconded ! Bravo ! Bra
vo!" exclaimed a number pf members,
rising and waving their hats. Vivent
the defenders of the country Vivent
the constitution !
Grandmaifon —" We are only offer
ing eroding and contradictory proposi
tions, without coming to any decision:
I move that you begin by declaring the
appointment of Buonaparte to be un
constitutional. " Yes, yes," was re
sounded from several parts of the hall.
Lucien Buonaparte left the Chair, and
proceeded to the Tribune ? Chafal
presided in his stead. "I entreat the
Council calmly to reflect," fall L.Buon
parte, "on the commotion that has
manifefted itfelf—it may not be need
less to represent ::::::: " here he
was interruped by a loud voice, who
said—" do not attempt to aniufe us."
"I propose, continued L. Bxona
,parte, " that you summon the General
who commands, to appear before you."
"We do not acknowledge him,"
exclaimed several members.
"When cool confederation," observed
Lucien, "will have tilled in your breasts
the extraordinary emotion which you
have teflified (murmurs), you will per
haps be sensible of the injustice done
General Buonaparte. Whatever may
be the event, I now in your prefence,lay
down, on the altar of the country, the
badge of the magistracy with which
the people had invested me."
On faying these words he laid down
his badge ofoffice on the Prefident',s
table ; upon which the doors of the hall
were opened, and 20 grenadiers enter
ed. They advanced towardsthe bureau,
took L. Buonaparte into custody, and
placing him in the midst of them, they
conduced him out of the Hall.
The Council was seized with extreme
agitation. Cries, vociferations' and tu
multuous confufion arose from the
Members suddenly quitting their places.
Not a word could be diftin^ly heard.

In Swizerland, there has been no armistice,
as reported. Maffena, is inclining towards
Suabia. After possessing the Grifon country,
he evacuated it, for want of provisions. The
Austrian Army opposed to him, has been rein,
forced ; and contemplated to relieve Phillipf
burg again.
The Austrian Gen. Kray, is to have the Chief
Command of the Army designed to operate a

Prior to the 6th Nov. the French Army of
the Rhine, had advanced from Manheim, de
feating the Austrians, and taking possession of
Carlfrue, Durlach, Pforzheim, Heilborn, Lau

sieged. On the 6th and 7th, tbe French were
defeated, driven to Manheim, anQ Phillipfburg
relieved. The French loft 2000 killed, and
900 prisoners. Their Gen. Ney,was wounded.
BOURbEAUX, Nov. 11.
The Directory have ordered the. embargo to

who filled the Square of the Palace.
From time to time were heard cries of
Vive Buonaparte, Vive la Republique!
General Buonaparte on hearing the
Council of Five Hundred, advanced
towards the soldiers and harangued
them. He entreated them to remain
calm, and to rest assured that the good
cause Should triumph. They all an
fivered by shouts of Vive la Buona

LONDON, DEC. 4.
Government have received official accounts
of the battles in Italy, on the 4th and sth of
Nov. By these it appears that the French loft
in these two days, between 4 and 5000 killed
and wounded, 4000 taken prisoners, including
an Adj. Gen. and 70 Staff and Superior officers.
The Austrians loft 1600. On the loth, ixth
and 13th, there were also battles. The French
removed their head-quarters from Coni to Pietre.
Ancona, surrendered on the 13th Nov. The
garrison confined of 6 Generals of Brigade, be
sides the Commandant, 23 Staff Officers, 202
Commissioned officers, 2599 non-commissioned
officers and privates—They became prisoners
of war to the Austrians. There were found in
the place 585 cannon, 32,294 lbs. gun powder,
4400 small arms ; in the harbour a ship of 70
guns, and 2 of 64, besides small privateers.
6 He could have done nothing bet
ter,' exclaimed several Members, ' than
to have given it in—....'
Meantime, at a distance were heard
the found of drums that beat the pas
de charge Soon after, for the
third time the doors of the Hall were
thrown open; and a third time the spec
tators endeavoured precipitately to
escape by leaping out of the windows.
An Officer came forward, followed
by a numerous guard, and exclaimed
with a loud voice General Buonaparte
orders the Hall to be cleared. Upon
which the Troops advanced into the
nearer half of the Hall, the further
part remained occupied by the Depu
ties, who had not retired. The soldiers
suspended their march for a moment,
in order to afford time for the Hall to
be evacuated. About a dozen Mem
bers, among whom was Blin, remained
near the Tribune, or at the Bureau,one of
them who was at the Tribune, exclaim
ed : 'What, are you, soldiers ? are you
any thing else than guardians of the
national representation ; and do you
dare to menace its fafety, to encroach
on its independence—is it thus, that
you tarnish the laurels which your
courage has won."
This harrangue was coldly listened
to by the soldiers, who advanced into
the hall with drums beating ; the mem
bers who flood near the Bureau and
Tribune, were at length obliged to
yield their places to the soldiers, who
took pofTeffion of them as the latter ad
vanced in the hall, the members went
out at the opposite extremity ; in a
word, the hall was completely cleared
in a few minutes. It was then five o'-
clock.

Capt. gMack from Guadaloupe, slates, that
the American Prisoners received very ill treat

bers of the Irish Parliament are to fit with the
present British Parliament, and no new election
is to rake place till both Parliaments are dissolv

that there lha!l be 6500 French. The French
Agent is directed to prefer soldiers to Tailors.
The French are ranch in arrears with refped to

They are therefore put on allowance.—The

Three new Comrr.iffioners, appointed by the
late Directory, have arrived at Guadaloupe, in
a large frigate, accompanied by a sloop of war
from France. The new order of things was taking
place when the Commissioners left France ; and
they hafteried to fee off, left they (hould be flop

The names of the three Commissioners, are

A letter from a gentleman of tbe firfl refreclabllil,

London, dated November 17, 1799, fays,' I have
conversed quit! mony of the beads of the late Revolu

(tubieb is composed of Garat, Laufot,Regnier, Le
nour-Laroebe, and Lemercier,) aubo I tbink Tuill
propose as tbe basts of the nenu Constitution, the model
of that of the United States—an elective Pres
ident, and two Houses of Affqmblf."
The most zealous Federalist in the United
"States, has never painted the folly, weakness,
treachery and villany of the Ruling powers in
France, in so sombre colours, as that eminent art
ist Buonaparte has done.—And yet there hath
been found a party in the United States, weak
enough to represent those demons as angels of
light. , [Cent.)
The Jacobin Morning Chronicle, of London,
abuses the new revolutionists without meafura
or mercy. "When it fays, " such wretches as
Barras and Talleyrand Perigord, are protected
and encouraged by the new rulers of France, it
i. s e <tfy to discover the bond of union between
them. The prefect set may be more dexterous
and daring knaves than their predecessors; but
they are of the fame family."
It appears from articles under the heads of Don
zuefchingen, Ulm, Ravenfburg and Mayenne,
from 25th to 29th October, that the hostile
armies, are about entering into winter quarters
the Ruffians in the neighborhood of Ulm andthe
