The hte decree of the National Conven

King cf Great Britain, and for the con
fifcation of their whole property, mult
make the public anxious to know who are
sub eft to this harsh and indifcriir.inate pu
nishment—This severe decree pafied the
Convention on the 19th day of the fit ft
month, and was dispatched to all the de

orders for its immediate execution all over
the Kepubiic.—Seals have been put upon
the papers of all who have been thus ar
