Nothing could more fenfibly increafe the deep feeling of grief for the lofs of the Prince, fo much lamented by his country and tub jets, than the altogether unexpeCled propofitiori, which not only his Pruftian Marfty castled to be male to the affembled Rates of the Empire, by his Am/sail:idor at the Diet, in regard to the fuf penfion of the new elation, but which was alto lupported with the like view by the French Go vernment in the malt pointed terms, in the note delivered in by the French ChargC d'Affaires, liacti ER. The imp tflion made by there was Rill farther increafed by thatmeafure, which imme diately followed, of his riefioral Highnefs the EiC6lOl PALATINE, a Princes whore houfe has in the courfe of upwards of s So years given five Prin ces 'libis EleCtoral grate of Vologne, whofe an. cellars from the earliefi time P.tve invariably been the fupport and proteCtion of the Catholic religion, and of the Catholic States. Penetrated by the duties, which they owe to the Church and the Eleftoral territories now intrufted to thtir admi• nifiration, the Cathedral Chapter fee themfelves here teduced to the moll melancholy neccility of declaring to the lli:t in the very place, where, in efecrence of thy molt unhappy of all wars, every elf r: t was required from the m'ft refpeaahle States .of the Empire. for the defence of their native cuaintry ; fang Cre fo:,jt etc of the EleClerrat g! a tc, Oil the eunclolioo of peace of Lune% ilk, have frig!:: in coition:, Um with the umpire, and that the!, mi3t oldigations for the pt efet va thm the c:mntry ; ft& of this very country the prefervAtiun of which could be only aft:Red Lr tl rerfever;ng efforts of united ftrength ; the rrcf7:lce of th 4. !tags zrj fuhicas, !to dc . iiiiffliiiiiE voted their ntllloll hots& to this great via:4W end ; in pretence of the a t oned Rates, with whom thej have fo faithfqlly co-operated towardsthetnath. tentincelof their rights and political exiftence; in the prefence of all Europe, as witnefs of theirfpirit and true German fiemnefs ; and laftly, in the molt folemn manna: as an example to future genera. tioos : 'That whatever are and may be the coafe quences to their iddividual members, the Chapter will not permit themfelves to be interrupted in the courfe of their conffitutional duties, from a regard' to any circumflances having relation only to them (elves as filch; that faithful to the duties which the welfare of the countries committed to• them re quires; 'faithful to their relations to the Empire allembled . under its Supreme Head, and to its States; faithful to the conffittition, and adhering with ftedfaft• regard to the true intereft of all the States, ftrong only by their union, and there by alone fecure—They neither can nor will be, prevented by any obftacle, the removal of which lies in their power, from doing that which they are entitled to do, and what they are in duty bound to do ; that from the pure confcioufnefs 'of reEti tude, which will be vindicated by the latch genera tions, unconcerned about thofe confequences of the future peace, which reach farther than bind ing reftrietions, or extend beyond that line, within which they muff, on account of 'their duty, can fine themfelves, they will purfue that path alone, which has for its only objet), the maintenance Of that conftitutien, which was Co faired to the fa thers of the prefent generation, and under which, fufficiently inftrueed by a courfeof experience of all kindsethey lived quiet, happy, and contented, in the enjoyment of an'ever improving pofterity. With the moft unbounded confidence in the con ftitution of the country, as the only and broad bafis of the purelt and moft permanent.happinefs of the German nation, to the maintenance of winch therefore the latter has the moft indifputable right, the Chapter fee dm:delves, in the name of that na tion,under whore proration the Elatoral territories of Cologne ftand,called upoq to add to this folemn declaration, the equally folemn proteftation againft all thefe eps, which are incompatible with the fpirit and . fubßance of this Conhitution, and do not find their molt evident vindication in the limitations of the Already ratified Peace of Lune • but are rather altogether in oppofttion to the left elektoral union fo facredly fworn to by the high kleidoral Predecefors of his Majefty the King of k ruffle, as Klator of Bratidenburgh, and his Mec. tore,. Highnefs the Prince Palatine; to the invio lable maintenance of which all the High Members of this firft and moft Reverend College are molt preffingly called upod by their princely proinife Co folemnly pledged, their dignities and their honotirs, and all that IS dear to them. The Chapter fee themfelves the more imperionf ly called upon to adopt this proceeding, as neither in this peace, nor in the negociations of Raftadt, is there a trace to be found of any general rdult of obligatory force,which impofes as a duty on the Chapter, the molt unfortunate necellity of putting their hands to the annihilation of the Conftitution of thefe countries, and on their part of laying the foundation of a Revolution which will de fy the Conhitution, the Catholic Religion, and at the fame time the States attached to it ; and the 6rft Rep to which, the non-accompliftinsent of the Elation, would manifeftly lead to the ruin of the State. Unfortunately the Chapter feels what the pref fore of circUmftances may do ; and that the prefent fituation of things is Inch, as will render changes neceffarj : it' cannot, however, be un known, that it is to be lamented that States, which through the whole courfe of the war; have devoted all their ftrength to the fervice of their country, folely, to keep thofe circumftancts at a diftance, which are now fo yelling ; which have done every thing to Cave their country and its Conftitntion • to which, from their conduit in conformity to their connation with the 'Em pire, not the froallell reproach can be made of any crime, of any fingle intention, directed to any other object than the general welfare; that thefe States • and their fubjees, and that too'under circumftances, to which they are fo utterly ftran gers in a political and legal fence, in th... midft of the negociations and the conclufion of peace, ffiould be the facrifice ; that, inftead of enjoying the re compence of their Cervices, even before the peace has definitively decided upon their lot; they muff ',fee their apprelienfions well founded, and that their relations will be eflentially altered, and their Con • I ftitution deft toyed. Surely it is unjuft that thofe States and fubjeds, who in the Peace of Campo Formio, law their fur ther exigence already fecured, to which, in the ne gociafions of Ralladt, which immediately followed this peace without the intervention of a new war, this e x Renee was alto fecured, as far as related to the Right Bank of the Rhine; and, in refpeet to which, finally, the Peace of Luneville, in conformity' to , thefe negociations, does not contain any determi nation derogatory to this view ; which have lately made fuch a facrifice, by their retiring from the Left Bank of the Rhine as is fcarcely the cafe with the few States which lie on this fide, fhould, at the end of their fl ruggle, be altogether overthrown. If juflice, without which every State muff be ruin ed, preponderates in the deliberations and refolo. lions of. the Diet upon this affair, which, by the propofition of the Elator of Brandenburgh, has been committed to their decifion ; the States of the Empire, with only half a Took at futurity, cannot concur : fhould the contrary be the cafe, the confirmation is not to be expelled from thc paternal feelings of his Imperial Majefty ; the guaranteeing powers of the German Con ftitution come thereby within the limits, where the moll alive participation in its Coppola is the firft aCtive duty of their guaranty ; even from the peaceful difpofition of the Government of the French State, which it now the neighbour of the Electoral State, it cannot be thought, that it (the French Govern ment) more correaly informed of the true Rate of things, will in any manner encroach upon that, a hich, through the peace of Luneville, has been fiipulated,hy f iirt her pacitications ; or, at lcaft, aCt from motives which can in no rape& operate • dicAdValatAgCOUry on the real confequence of thc /Peace; in any other Manner, thaft that wh;rit tnay agree with the true relations of hulependent and felf-exiiling States, which are already fo nearly connetled by the ties of friendibip and Fence; from • every cirenmfiance there is fo much the ler, reafon• to furpeft any operation of the French Govern ment difadvantageous to the future exiftence of. the .Eleastral State, as the maintenance of its neighbour and her Conftitutiou muff, confidered under all points of view, be mOreadvantageous to it (the French Government) than any alteration ever can, which would hurt that neighbour; but more efpecially, as it mutt .be frefh in the recel leaion of that Government, that the condua of , the deceafed Prince of this Eleaoral State, from 4 the firft occafion of this molt unfortunate war, re mained unchangeable, confined within the limits of the duties prefcribed to him by his relation to the Empire. In this view of the bofinefs, on there priiiciples refts the confident hope of the Chapter, that, , in their conilitutional path, the only one which is permitted them to tread, from which they neither will nor dare to depart one ftep, they will not only not be prevented from maintaining die Situation of the Eleaoral State committed to them,as it was in the life-time of his late Eleltoral Highnefs, but that, in the further deliberations upon thole cir cumitances, which may ,yet come in queftion, in eonfequence of the arrangement of the peace of Luneville, they mall receive back its whole exift ence, confOrintable to the Conftitutinn ' and to the relations which imniediately rote out of the latter. The Chapter of the Bi(hopric and ArchbiPioprie of CoLooms flatter theitifelves, that after this de claration and proteitation, which has been extorted from them by their duties to the Church and to the State, according to the principles, here an nounced with German opennefs ; neither his Ma jetty the Kim° of PRUSSIA, nor the moft high States of the Empire, will give any further con fequence to the propofttion, on the delay of the eleaion of an Elector of Cologne, which muft be difadvantageous to the maintenance-of this Elec toral State; and fo much the more, as this propo fide% by prolonging the work of peace, may pro duce the effea, that the greater part of the Ger man Church will remain without a head, not without the utmoft prejudice for the Catholic Re ligion, and thence mutt strife a molt diaraaed State, as the prefect Situation of affairs gives reafon to expea. • It cannot, certainly, efeapethe eniightesed judgment of the excellent embaffy of the Eleaor of Bit11111)11111URGH, on a nearer examination that the Praigwitis, 'from the year 1761 to the year, 1763, introduced in the further counter-refervation propofed on the ta.th of the prefent month, as a prOtocole of the Council of the Princes of the Empire, can have, by no means, any influence on the prefent.eafe ; as at that time .the before mentioned Biihoprics were altogether under the power of the enemy; in which cafe underfuch im preff on, and. amid the din of arms, all laws, and the execution of them, mutt neceffarily be Silent ; but at pent, on the Contrary, the nate of peace fo much witted for by all Germany, has been al ready long enjoyed, and as even when the unhappy enfigns of war waved in its Southern Provinces, the 13ifhopric of MUNSTER enjoyed, at a diflance from all the troubles of war, the valuable fruits of a Rate of peace and neut rality, under the wife proteaion of his Pitussiar Maps's,' himfelf, who molt magnanimoufly fecund it againft all the events of war and hoftility, at the fame time it is known to every one, who is acquainta with the circumitmicee of that time, that in the before-cited cafe the right of the Conilitution was in the fulleft manner preferred againit all fotce by the Supreme Court decree of his Imperial Majefty, of the Bth or may 1761. The Eleaor Palatine of BAVARIA has hereupon delfstred fa the following declaration, ss an Eledotal Prot**: , His EleCtoral Highnefs had, it is true, in his : ditrent of the 3 t II of Anna, made the propofition that the vacancies which happened, and whist, might Rill happen, in the Bifhopries, till the final arrangement of the indemnifications, ought not to be filled up by new eletlions, as his Highnefs was convinced that the principle fanetioned by the peace of Luneville, of amintermediate tecularization for the accomplithinent of the indemnities, required filch a rule as the natural confequence ; but his Highnefs has refrained from every application to a fpecific cafe, and left fuch to the decifion of the Empire and its Supreme Head ; and further, in' the propofition for the furpenlion of thole eleaions, he never had an idea of the annihilation of the Eletorate of Cologne, nor of any other fpecißc Ecclefiaßical State. His Highnefs mutt, therefore, rrferve hintfelf againtt the unexpeCted remarks, which the fupplemental remontlrance of the Elec torate of COLOGNE, delivired on the 28th of Sep tember, eountins againft the true fence of his difrent. If the confequences of an unfortunate' war, if a treaty of peace folemnly fandioned, require an order of things different from the conftitution which has hitherto exifted, the refults arifing from it mull be adapted, r a n to a tingle individual, but to the circurn (lances and policy of the whole, from whence new legal forms may arife. The Eletoral protellation of Cologne mull, therefore, in this point of view, be conlidered as directed not fo much againft the diffent of the Eleflors of BR•MOINBLIRGII and BAVARIA, as againff the treaty of Luneville itfelf, on which ac ' count all further proteitations ?it this fubjed are nugatory, as it is the common concern of all thole, who originally concluded this peace and have partaken in its confequences. The Members of the Moll Reverend Cathedral Chapter of the Eledorate of Cot.oow x, had betides nut reprefcnted fo much the ideas of Religion, and of the Conflitution, of Church and State, as they had delivered in their own name a demonftration of his Elettoral Highnefs's difintereiled views, according to which his Highnefs on all occafions, particularly where it can contribute to the welfare of the whole German Empire, will exert himfelf to co-operate, and thereby to merit the moll flat tering confidence of his molt high and high Co ' I: it Atm 0 ND 0 .
