" By a long (cries of the nioft unfortunate events, your country has become a prey to the molt cru.l and intolcut of foes. The manifold (offerings to which you have been (objected arc known to the Emperor, my mat gracious Sovereign; and his Majelty is fo much the murc di(pofed to take the anemia intereft therein, as he himfelf has (prong ti on German blood ; and mindful of the i6ti mate ties which czift between his Imperial Houle and many of the German Prince*, he has never tested to entertain, with regard ro the German nation, all that efteem to whit's a people, to flume roue, enlightened, and virtuous, are juftly entitled. With this fen • timent of the warmeft iota - eft in the fate of Germany, are ram rally and infeparably conjoined his Majetty'a wifhes to deliver this empire from its oppritGre, and retort it to its jut freedom and independence. His Majefty will think no exertion too laborious to attain this peat objed. " Inhabitants of Germany !. the whole Ruffian army fi g hts for your interefts ! Under circumftances fo favourable, than you alone remain inactive ! Shall you he fo blinded, as in the prefent Rate of things to do nothing for yourfelves ? * The enemy is at a great dillance from his friontlers, In terri tories, and at a fcafon of the year, whichinot only do not afford bins fulacient means of fupply, but alto impede all his operations. Will you voluntarily contribute to his relief ? Will you act againft your own interefta ? Forg,t not that you have all potable .a!J to exped from the brave army entrufted to my command. I truft that I (hall victoriously drive back the Common Enemy of Eu rope, and convince him that there Rill remains a people, who, faithful to their country and their monash, have both the incli nation and the power to TOR the impofition of his iron yoke. But however probable this fuccefs may be, hi. Majetty will CO regard it as incomplete, fo long as the foe (hall not be driven back beyond his natural boundaries; and as this is the only means of restoring the independence of your country, and obtaining a general peace upon fecure foundations, his Imperial Majefty re lies, with the fulleft confidence, that at this finally decifive crifia, the inhabitants of Germany will not only lend no kind of fupport to the common foe, but, on the contrary, that they will, by a ge• neral refiftance, render his further Stay in Germany impradicable, and throw every. potable difficulty in the way of his retreat to wards his own frontiers. By this intimate union of the whole auffian force with all the means of the German Empire, the common objedt may he attained, and peace, fo anxioutly cleared, be once more uttered to (offering Europe. Take courage then, brave and virtuous Germans I Retied on the immortal renown of your anceftors, who, in former ages, maintained their independence with the molt rival bravery. Unite yourfelvcs under the colours of fuch of yoar Princes, in whom the unfortunate events of our times have not yet extin piffled a knit of honour, and of their own dignity. To this grand and noble purpofe of delivering your country from a foreign yoke, facrifice every private quarrel, every confidtration of internal dikord, and then than you compare a formidable whole, capable not only of difputing every inch of pound with the common enemy, but alto of ultimately sranquithing and repelling him for ever within his natural frontier. " In your efforts to attain fo glorious an objedt, you may rely with the fuUdt confidence on the powerful and continued affittattee of the Emperor, my molt gracious Sovereign. The univerfally ac knowledged principles of his Imperial Majefty afford you a gua rantee, that not only will his Majefty rot abandon you in the prefun Rruggle, but that on the happy termination thereof, he will particularly dire& his attention to the reftoratioo of the venerable cooftitution of your country, which for a facceffion of centuries rendered your forefathers the happidt people on the face of the 'earth, and which could only be deftroyed by the domineering am bition of so enemy, who makes no scruple of treading under foot ' the molt tiered trestles.

(Signed) P.4It6.I,I3IiNT T ARr PROCP!(PING.!. SLAV! TRAD!. The Houfe then, nn !notion, refolved itfelf into a Committee nn the Slave Trade Abolition Bill. Sir CHARLES POLE opposed the mealure, not, he obferved, with a view to the confideration of any individual interests, but as an vbjeft of the utm , ,ll national importance. About the time of the year 1780, there were fifteen thoufand perfons deltroyed by a hurricane in Jamaica ; in cafe of Inch an event taking place again, it would be found impollibleto up. hold the Rate of property in the Mends, without im portation. On the other hand, if the trade was nut permitted by Parliament to be continued, it would be found almoft impoffible to prevent fmuggling ; or even if we did completely abandon the trade, it would be immediately taken up by the enemy, who would increafe and flrengthen his navy by that means, and we might loon expel to fee the downfall of the Britith Empire. 'At leaf} he thought it ttliat be expedient to give the planters time to add to their number of female eaves, as a probable means of laying the foundation for a better fur ply in future. He therefore moved, that inflead of May, 1807, the words May, In 2, ihould be inferted, as the time for the commencement of the operation of the Bill. Mr. WA RD Rated, in a very impreffive maiden fpeech, that he knew of an Aare in Jamaica, where the population was kept up without importation ; and that there was nothing in native, he was con vinced, that prevented man from multiplying his fpecies there, but the malignant inttituti.:ms of man liimfeff. Sir PHILIP. FRANCIS alTuted the Efoufe, that h e was informed by an Officer of rank and expeti ence in the Britith Navy, that the Africantrade, and that from thence to the Weft India Itlands, was ex tremely pernicious to our Seamen, and that a Com mander of a King's (hip would not wifli to take a Single recruit from the veals in that trade. The gal. lant Admiral had obferved, on the other hand, that it would he impoitible to prevent importation, on the one fuppnfition, if vt e permitted the enemy to have the fall enjoyment of the trade himfelf, it would only I be the means of ruining his navy ; and, on the other it wt ,sld be impo%tole by this meafttre to ruin our coltintes.
