A LETTER was received from Manuel, complaining of the condadi e-f the Convention, from whom, he (aid, a diforderfy band, by the Pole talent ofmakiHg anoife, took away all power of doing good. By your conduct, continued he, you have expo fed FrAnfe, and tuch as ,you are (the truth eTcapes me) yes, I'ucfe as yeu are, yon cannot save it. He concluded with giving in his re signation, as having it no longer irt ; U.is power to be trfeful at his port. He henceforth proposes by his writ ings and examples, to devote hitn felf to the education of children, as the Resolution wants nothing but | men. On the qiieftien* " Shall there, or Jhall t-hire not, be a delay rn the ntecution of the King ? tondorcet —>" Let us prove to the whole world that we ar« nt>t barba rians ; ami that, if we wi/h fx>r the death of the tyrant, we wish alfofor the happirtefs of mankind. Let u» lit ike the ci-devant king, but let us abolish the punilhment of death for all privaie crimes, and refei ve it only for treason, Let us hasten to revise our system of taxation, to es tablish beneficent laws, to fh r hl a fvflem of public inftruJtiflii, and t-» meliorate the management of our lrofpitals. We may thenanfwer \y ranis, if they reproach us with the death of Louis j and we may reft atliired that with suCh difyofi'ion* he n»ay then be executed without danger in 24 hours." Briflbt— '* Such has been the in fluence of the French Revolution, that at London, Vienna, Berlin,and every where, great deference is paid to the public opinion. It is consulted, it is feared, and are made to corrupt it. The pub lic opinion of E««<p« is of more iin pqrtance to us than armies. In this state of things, the immediate exe cution of Louis inuft be very unfa vorable to os. There are in Europe ty-a clalTes of men. Tbefii lt, con . filling of Pliilofophers and friends of liberty, will not fee the necciiity for ihe death of Louis, and will think that a jjreat nation ought ta disdain fangtunary vengeance. Th« other, composed of theflavesof pre judice, will consider thepunifhuient of a king as the gveatefl of crimes and both will unite to condemn os.

Thomas Paine appeared at the tribune, and as he was unacquainted with the French language, Bancal read a translation of his opinion,die substance of Which is as follows : " 1 prefer an error occafit>ned by humanity, to an error occasioned hy severity.
