LONDON, Nov, ..
LAT night was received. the Paris journals up
10 the 18th int. They are till very flen- ref
pe6ting the view i'll which the Directory conid
ers the emperor's conduit in entering the coun-
try of The Grfous. The Reda6tcur only
attempts to wipe away the afertion that the
French had frf attempted 10 DO the fame
thing. This circumGance, coupled with meA-
fures they arc taking in Switzerland, bstrays
the alarm it has cccaloned.
The mot curious, and perhaps the mott i'm,
Portant event announced 10 thefe papers is, that
at length one member Of the council Of 500, has
been found bold enough to arraign the famous
18Th Fru9idor and though nor fcconded in
his attack, yet it was permitted, and lie was
heard to the end, though not without violent
murmer Our readers will petule this debate
with nteIeR for thofe who are acq1ain ca
with The cautious and expert intrigue Of The
French IA 9ions will iuIpe5t that Rouchou would
not have hazarded this philippe without The
certainty of1upport, and that he was put for
ward to feel the pule Of the AG-mbly.
Another. Gngular creumGarce in ther. IA
Pers is, that an-attemPt is made to vindicae
the Directory from The madnefs or the imnci.y
Of the enterprise p E8yn', by throwing NE
blame on Buonapayte. We have extraCed thlt
curious article fom he Echo Of the 9th int. as
from the manner ot its irlcition it leens to come
