his party, Withdrew from the Convention nm the
"a OF June. The same deputies signed another
address TO the Convention on the 9Th in wbic1,
they protested against any m easure which that bo
dy might adopt.

leave the city till some order should he taken ~,
supplying their places. The twenty who lad
Withdrawn replied on the same day, DENYING the
Jurisdiction Of the Convention as repardad tier,
