The French resident, by way of punishing them from th
for having deferred the congratulations which he mand, a
exDetted, to so distant a period, .presented them taclimei
with the tri-colored flag, accompanied by a demand, head of
that a kind of civic feftival should be celebrated on appea're
the day of its reception. The Syndics, who were j reudy
perfe&ly aware of the objeA of this demand, and J and fid
were fenfib'.c that such an absurd feitival might be j his m?
produ&ive of trelh disasters to the Rcpublie, and j the me
affront the coalesced powers, refufed to comply loss wh
with it. The French resident then threatened to advanti
quit the place, and to write to the French Direc- right t(
t„ry on the fubjeft ; but the Syndics replied, that, them,
in that ease, they should fend two deputies to Paris rit, wh
and so the matter ended, the national flag being fidence
received incognito. rals ' 1
When the Syndics went out of office on the 3d troops
of April, and rendered an account of their con- their d
dqft, they were tailed upon to explain this bufi- ! by a
ness. " The ceremony of the reception of this j guard
flag," said they, "was by bo means a rpatter of'-time,
indifference; and bn an objedl of this nature, it and to
behoved the Council to be circumfpeft, on account iuffcr f
of the fmallnefs of out Republic. Besides, the the wh
principles of Equality between natioHs rendered it proacl
a duty in us to purfuethe fame simple form* which u> 'he
were observed by the National Convention, at the perfua
reception of our flag.- It has bees deposited in cause
the temple of St. Peter, by the flags of out anci- con fid
ent allies, the worthy Cantons of. Zurich and folly t
Berne." . *' en g
The French resident took umbrage at this de- gr« c
claration ; he observed, that he could not avoid 'elf, a
fending it to the Ditedory, and that he could not that 1
answer for the cor.sequences. ™Bht8 ht
He .seems the more anxious to terrify the people Cx° vei
of Geneva, because they no longer affect to con
ceal the deep re»e«"~»~ 'W <« faience for the which
(hare which the French induced them to take in all pi
the revolutionary schemes which have disgraced wrtho
their territory. Since thje depattnre of the troops, race,
by which they were surrounded, for Italy, the spi
rit of the Genevefe hasrecoveied i'sformer vigour, and [
and renewed its attachment to the antient laws of we ca
the countiy. A proof of tiiis change was Vxhi- 'his 1
bited, in a particular manner, at the ele&ion o! c°mn
the new Syndics; for the chiefs of the revolution, the ti
who had the presumption to offer thcmfelves as «
candidates, were rejedted by an'iinmenfe majoiity ;
and the people chose four citizens, who, withouv
indeed being memb rs of the antient government,
are distinguished for their probity, and for the hor- Lett'
ror which they have invariably teftified at all the ' h
tranfa&ions of the revolution. 1
Their firft care was to bring to trial a man b) '
the name of Conte, secretary to the old revolu- £
tionary tribunal, who was accused of having Rolen _
or misapplied different fiims of money, during the 0 ■
collection of the forced lon. He was condemned w
to make amende honorable, with a lighted torch in
his hand-—a punishment which he underwent, t<> .

formed chiefly of the modere Terroifts, who, at l e
its institution were the predominating party. They ?

' violent of the Terrorists, but they have reconciled c
the former by gradually adopting their system, and f,
have diminished the oppositions of thelattet, by
üblifh- v j n g employments to all who would accept of f<

I hopes the fl<ill it has shewn in gaining their friendfhip, or

It appears that Prince Charles has sent a reinforce

0 In Italy, as was before stated, Buonaparte croflcd the
d Mincio on the 17th ult. and forced the Auftrians to
o fall back, with the loft, as he aflerts, of 2000 men; g,.j
it but we know this assertion to be falfe, as Col. Graham,
, in his letter to Lord Grenville, represents the number c ° n
' of Auftrians killed and wounded as not exceeding 300
men. The Colonel alio mentions a fuccefsful attack Sloop
made upon the French by a detachment of Austrian Jum
