possession, he proceeded to fire her with
success and left her in blaze, in which She
continued until she was totally consumed.
He had none killed and only one wounded.

spiracy lately frustrated in France.
We refer our readers TO the sentiments
OF the English attorney general Abbot,

cy OF the government of France.
The correspondence of Mr.. Drake and
Mr.. Spencer Smith, British Ambassadors

who has been constantly received at the
court of London--the seizure Of Pichegru
and Georges in Paris, these faAs ton plain.
Nv and deplerably mark the realty and
iinrtioRe of the conspiracy.
The English papers endeavour to ex-
cite amazing horror and sympathy for
the son OF the prince of Conde-ond his
long line If nncesforS-the writer's of such
stuff suppose that the world are ignorant
OF the character of his race-and wish
