General &ee RIOT F, (rays one of the Paris
oapers) was an original genius in the min of an
,ntrant people. He would not appear fuch either
in London or Paris. The greater part of thofe
marks of originality, was heightened by the theep-
ilh behaviour of thofe about him, in confequence
of which, he exercifed an abfolute dominion over
their minds. His genius prompted him to adopt
lush a line of condua as was proper to influence
the Ruffians. He neither fpoke nor executed any
thing which was not calculated to produce a hong
impretGon upon them. His originality, therefore,
was true genius."
