A grenadier of the French army was an nounced to the National Convention by the Mi nister of Marine.

The diplomatic dispute between' France and England, according to the notes which bare pafled between Lord Grenville, the Bri tilh Secretary of State, and M.

On this M. Le Brun fays, '« Nothing could be more strange than this reproach to the sentiments of the National Convention." He disclaims all intention on their part of favoring the ieditious, or en couraging mobs.—The second point is the Scheldt. On this the British Minister fays, " England will never consent that France shall arrogate the power of annualling at her pleasure, and under the pretence of a pretend ed natural right, of which she makes herfelt the only judge, the political system of Europe, «ftabli<hed by lojemn treaties, and guaranteed by the consent of all the powers." In answer to this the French Minister " the treaty in question was concluded by' (he Empero'', without the participation of th» Belgians— The Emperor, to secure the poffVOlon of the low countries, facrificed without fcrtiple, the most inviolable of rights." The Minister of France alks, " but is France authorized t<t break the stipulations whidi are opposed to the liberty of the Scheldt?
