ayerfe to the meaiures and the Catholics
dillike the encroachments which have been
made on the ancient power of the Pope.

while he attended the Parade; and leye-
raj of the generals, who have exprehed
themfelves too freely with refpef to the

gullhed men. All the private accounts
from the French capital certainly concur

An Order Of Council, it is faid, has act

Every one who is capable of revering ia
Tents and admiring worth, will be anxious
TO expreis their appreciation of the man who
has faved The Country, and its honor, and
profperity.
