mere axe one OI lWO vdildtiOHo, ILL.,
deed material 10 be corrected. They lie
between the French copy in the Moniteur,
and the French copy printed here by au-
thority.. In the arr. VII. in the ffipula-
lions re(peetiDg the frontiers of French
and Porrugueie Guiana, it is fated in our
1ranllation, The boundaries OF the French
and Portuguelc Guiana are fixed by the
.ArfzUayi, which empties itielf into the
Ocean, above Cape North, sc. the French
word in the M0uifeur being az dsDus. In
the Englilh official copy it is, 6slo7o,
&c. The French being pr;ntedau dsDoas.
From this we conclude that the Moniteav
ofthe 9th, from which we tranilateo our
copy, has, by an error Of the prels, put
az ds7as for az ds00as.
Inparagraph three of article x. refpeet-
ing Malta, there is a very important va
ration between the French and Engliih CO.
py, as we ind them printed together. 1t
is iaid-" The municipal revenue, civil,
judicial, and other Offices under the 60
yernmsnt Of tie illand, fhall be filed a.
leaf in the proportion of one half bySna-
tive inhabitants of Malta, Coca, and Go.
mino.'' In the French it is merely sb4-
-bitants,' 70 that by the Englifh 'natives'
alone are admitted whereas 10 the French
any adventures, who may be inhabl-
tants,' may hold places. The French
word bahitants,' certainly does NOT I'M
ply 70 much as the Englilh : natfve mia
bifanfs.'
We eblerve too, that in article XIV.
Rejecting the tifheries Oh the coat OF
Newfoundland, there is flight variation
between the official Englifh copy AMI the
official French copy, and consequently our
tIanflaticn taken from the latter. Alter
mentioning that the flheries are placed on
the footing they were before the war, II
is Gated in the Englifh copy, the French
fiihermen, and the French inhabitants OF
ST. Pierre and Miquelon, thall have the
privilege of cutting iuch wood, sc. In
the French, it is the French 6lhermen of
Newfoundland, and the inhabitants, &c.
las Pecbears Francois de Terreneaye, ct
les ha5itaas.
We have publilhed the above feParate
articles, which has not hitherto appeared.
1t regards the novelty of an Englilh copy.
The variations above noticed are the more
important, as between France and England
EngIifh and French are of equal au-
thority. The circumstance of the King
of Great Britain being placed fra in the
Englifh, and che FirR Coninl in the French
copies, is well underGood. They fand
respectively 70 in the refpetfive copies,
given to eachspower, 70 that in fatf no re-
cogniied precedence is allowed TO either.
The nomination of an Ambaiader to
repreient the Republic of France at our
Court has at length taken place, and the
choice ofthe Fira Coniul has fallen on ge-
neral Berthier.
During the courfe of the ceremony in
Notre Dame on Sunday night, Hehul,
the leader of the band, prefented the chief
coniul with the plan or the Feitlyal, IN
. which the Orchefra was placed in front;
the Coniul obferved, :" Let the muhc GO
into the tr:bunes; I will have a''battalion
oftroops in front and rear, ranges en- b.
saazs." The other remonGrated, that the
mu6c would be entirely loft; g That's all
one 20 me (faid the ConfuL) I'll have the
folders in front of me. .
The Standards Of the Conlular Guard
were TO be coniecrated at Notre Dame on
Sunday laa, with great pomp and cere-
mony.
