more OF their feelings and motives in all their
various mutations; more of the organization,

his thigh, to put sockade in bis hat, and call

hlver have difappeared: that paper notes down
to the amount Of few ihillings in England, and

OF the world that fhe has abandoned her al
lies; that The has abandoned even her own ho-
hours won BY our fathers; that her enemy has
been exalted above her; and that lhe is now
trembling on the verge Of detrucfion: if / fay
this, am, according TO this new doarine, gull

are not IN the world means fuficient to inHGt
