When it is considered that this beautiful and siza
tensive colony. with a population of one hundred
and um thousand souls, with tints. and an armed
force, numerically greater than ours—when it is
known that every sanguinary measure had been de.
vised, and that the worst scenes of the Revolution
were to be recommenced, gist the 15th of August,
the birth-day of Bonaparte, was to have been so-
k.nnized by the execution f the Royalists. already
condemned to death, it is a subject of congratula-
,tion to see (iuidaloupe completely shielded from
Jacobin fury in two days, and without the lots of
many lives.
