PROCLAMATION. 64 We, FRANCIS the Second, Emperor Eieet of the Romans, Hereditary Emperor of Aultria, &c. Fans known to all the world prove, that fince the conclufion of the Treaty of I.uneville, we have had nothing to much at heart as the maintenance of the peace which we had procured tor our faithful people b 7 the &id Treaty.

Yet the armaments ordered by the Emperor of the French dole to th„ frontiers of the Tyrol and the Durhy of Venice, joined to eiirea menaces, required of oor paternal folicitude for our Hereditary States, counter armaments, which however, though dellined to do away our fears for the fafety of our States, could not be to France a fubjett of miftruft or of open complaint. At the fame time that we took thefe :matures of pre caution, to which we taw conceives forced, we took with the Courts of Peterlburgh and Paris, when ne gotiations to be opened between thofe two Courts had been frufirated, the proper meafures neverthelets to attain the falutary objetl, and to produce the refump- Lion of :he negotiations for peace interrup►ed. a The Court of France did not ackni ai edge our kood intentions on this head, and reftifed our media tion. The Court of Ruffia, on the contrary, declared itlelf ready to open, in concert with us, and with equal moderation, pacific negotiations, and to employ au armed mediation for the re ellahlifhment of the repofe, fecurity, and poli:ical balance of agitated Europe.—We, far removed from the delire of fee ing a new war break out, but convinced of the im perious neceffity of rhofe energetic areatures which can alone entire real and Lilting peace, partake perfettly the determination of the Estes an t of all the Rtisstas on this fubjeft, and hope from its good execution, with well-founded confidence, the tielit,d effett.

We expeti then of our faithful Rates and tutiats, that they will not only continue to pay re nallarly the tax called the Challis. which has been levied in tilos and which has been prolonged to 1806 ' O l, a particular patent, dared this day, but that they %ill all tut nilh with no lets good will to maintain our .reties more eafily, contributions in kind, cot:filling ,! corn and oats ; crbe Proclamation that fixes the number of bufheh for each poorloce " however willingly we fhnuld grant to our faith ful dives and fubjeas the ufual indemnity for thefe fupplics, we cann ,, t this time fatisfy this defile, be cattle our finances, obliged to nuke head againft fo Many other extra' rdinary expences, are not in a con dition alto to fupply 14 iotimanaity, and that theta would dins nun% to pay we other ?dowse *as to i raife the neceffary lams by means of another contri bution in money."
