Oil the truth oft hat report, the Monfteurs and other Paris papers of the TfthSth othand loth init. which we received by exprefg this morning, - dubjle usto a.Fard a confirmation, together with a very ample detail tif-te circumstances that attended both thofe events. Tjhe fon of Louis XVI. died in the 'afternoon -of the 8th infL By thejreport presented to theConven tioij by the committee of General Safety on the next day, it appears thajthe had for fome time been ill of " f.freJllng in his right kneeand hijleft hand.Thefymtoms affjrlk vvfre. by o means alarming, ner wfere any dangerous confequences apprehended until lofs of appetite, accompanied with a violent feyer, e'nllied. At eleven o'clock, in the morning of the eighth, the diforder, t was pronounced would prove 'fatal,- and at a quarter palt two o clock on the fame day, he died. . 7 According to the ftatement of the Committee of general fafety, the . deceafed was attended by the mod eminent fargeons and phyhcians,. and there is no reafon for fuppoftng that any of the duties which huma nvty dilates were neglecled. This event puts the combined powers in afituation of. fome delicacy and difficulty. We can fcarcely fuppofe that they will recognize the brother or Louis XVI- but we certainly are ot opinion, that whether they do or not, will be of very little impor tance with regard to any imprelfion to be made on France. On tne mo dificaaons of which the Republican tonltitutiori may be fufceptible, there ttiay be much difference of opinion ; but we have every reafon to believe, that to the republican principles the attachment of the people of France is very general. The important fortrefs of Lux embourg furrendered by capitula tion -on the 7tk inft. By the articles of the capitulation, the garrifon were allowed to march out' with all the honours of war, to lay down their arms on the glafis of the for ces, and to be conducted to the right fide of the Rhine.
