Ii merits particular notice, that not

.xpreaed by cur standardization IN the
iuaice Of France and Spain, with regard
% the MiGiaippi, they have never feeeiy-
ID an oaicial intimation of the event by
which this territory was cedsd 20 France;
and what is more aaonihing, that all the
Efforts Of Mr.. Livingston al Paris, to ex-
Tor, an admifion of the American nights
on ,ha, river, have produced nothing more
than vs,5al dseiaratisa, from nonlicur
Talleyrand, supporting that L #as re

we beg to be corrected. LII 'ialS IS aos.0

Is il not then unaccoun.ahlc, that the ex-
ecutise, pofsang no other evldence o. :

thar the French government have not only
beenyery guarded in what her agents ha'fe
