Summary (extracted citations)

'This address was pronounced with repeated applause and ordered, like the late English Manifesto, to be dispersed through the Republic. The ministry, we understand, intend to publish the above address, with a refutation annexed, immediately after the capture of St. Maloes and Dunkirk. Mr. Pitt will write on the ambiguity of the French manifesto, the duke of Brunswick on their inhumanity, Mr. Burke on their lack of good manners, Lord Loughborough on their dishonesty, &c.'

Notes

Note with ironic comment on the reactions of the British establishment to the speech.
