can now pi event the couclcfion of this
grand work, fince both naiioni figh lor

the public, that the directory will throw
oWtt..cles in the way of the negociation. If
the directory could have Itopt it in the be
ginning, they certainly would have done
it, and of 1 hi we have a proof, fince they
difapproved the conduct of Buonaparte, in
agreeing, in the preliminaries with the
Kuiieror, to admit to a conprefs to be held
by an .Engltfh envoy; now it is too late.
and you may reckon with certainty upon a
