" Don't attend to me, but avenge the re
public for having been deprived of one of
its zealous defenders." This courageous

Revolutionary Tubvhal.
PARIS, April 3.
Danttm and tht at bet Dtputiet.
. After the reading of the ast of accusa
tion and the report of Saint-Just; Amar,
the Public Accuser requested that Gene
ral Weftermann Should be brought frpm
tbc Conciergerie, in order to be tried with
the Deputies. This request was compli
ed with.
As soon as General Weftermann arri
ved, the Revolutionary Tribunal proceed
ed to the examination of evidence against
him—Cambon, the Deputy, was exami
nated—His dcpofuion related entirely to
Fabre d' Eglantine, Delaunay d' Angers,
and Chabot—He developed the measures
adopted by the Committee of Five, to
suppress the Finance Companies and to
tftablifh the credit of Aflignats, and he
disclosed the manner in which the three
Deputies alluded to, had altered the de
cree parted by the Convention, relative to
the Eall India Compnny.
As the Tribunal were on the point of
adjourning, Danton aad Philippcaux re
queued leave to communicate freely with
their defenders——This request was acced
ed to.
April 4.
In pursuance of the rcquifition of the
public accuser, Lullier, procurer general
of the department of Paris, in consequence
of his intimate connexion with the Baron
de Batz, who has made his escape, was
ordered to be tried with the Deputies.
The Revolutionary Tribunal then proceed
ed to the examination of witnefles, but
Danton and the other deputies declared
that they would answer no questions, ex
cept in the prefencc of Roberfpierre, Bar
rere and Saint-Just.
The President of the revolutionary
tribunal, and the public accuser, attempt
ed to induce them to depart from this de
termination. Their attempts, however,
were ineffe&ual. The tribunal, in conse
quence of this event, suspended the trial,
and a report was ordered to be presented
to the Convention.
April £.
The decree patted by the Convention,
together with the letter received by the
Committee of public and general fafety,
from the adminiftratori of the Police,
where read to the deputies They pcr
filted, however, in the determination not
to answer interrogatories, unless Roberf-,
piene, Barrere, and St. Just, were sum
moned to attend. The condudl of Danw.
ton was exceedingly turbulent, and he
inveighed in very strong terms against the
judges.
In conference of the mode of conduit
adopted by the prisoners, the jury found

1-R.OM Albion's Isle when genius take its
flight,
Its ever fjre on these b!eft coasts to light,
Whether by parly or by fancy driven, .
Here lure jt finds an ever foftring Heaven
Here firft :t breathes invigorating air
And l.arns to do whatever man ihould dare,
Hei*e among Freemen lifts its manly voice
Fearless of ill where all the world rejoice
Here Priestley finds the reft he fought in
vain,
And W hitlock meets applauding crowds
again !
In these blest ftiades no lords or despots
sway
But sons of Freedom their own law! obey,
Distress of course is to the land unknown
And guardian science marks it for her own ;
No sorrOws here obtrude upon the eye,
But such as fancy may perchance supply ;
Woes such as these that penetrate the heart
When Whitlock ftr.kes it in fond Zara's
part!
Oh long be acting such 4s hers a'low'd,
Its full effedt upon tb' admiring crowd,
To wealth and peace and plenty let it join,
What e'er can foften, meliorate, refine.
Mean while for her still may it smooth the
way,
That yet remains of variegated day.
Till filters form'd such different worlds to
pleafc,
Alike ftiall charm on either fide the seas;
Of jarring nations, form the mutual care,
And Whitlock here succeed as Siddons
there! S.
The American .Daily Advertiferof this
