on The Enyuys from, The l.. States, viz.
thafies Cn;esworth Pipckliey, John Mn

1pr the pocket OF the French Directory
''nd Ministers. ID is well known that pre-.
T'eus TO this embassy Tallevrand had liy
Ell eighteen mohths or two years in the
tinitcd States, The greater porlinn of
MS residence was in lhc city Of New

when There, h spent alternately bctyeea
the house Of c1l. Burr q, New-Ynrk, and

them When we rch.ct onJthese circunn.
stances, and on The correspondence be.
tween Fareyraod and Burr, at The very
period when ale, rand and our Envoys
were negotiating; We think that very III.
tie doubt can be entertained, but the
dorceur contemplated for the French Iii
kreclofy, would have gone into the pocI- IS
OF iaiieyraad and his brother associates
m america. Jonathan DAYTON would
have endcavoured 10 have closed The eyes
OF he lederaIsts as 90 the transsG(,on !;
Nl'iie Aaron Barr doubtless would have
worked the same magic upon the repub-
leans Mr.. Volney probably was &C

views, as ihe co0spiraiors. IN the book
