p I r of returning immediately to England. I trufi I need I fcarcely Mime you, that I have as strong an imprel finn as any man can have, of the had coes4uences that may attend exhibiting any thing which koks like verfatility of condott ; and yet, under the cir eurnliances in which I found myielf placed, I am fasisßed I had no choice, and that I could not retitle, with propriety, the folicitations of the French Pleni• potentiaries to renew the conference. At the commencement of our interview, I perceiv• ed a difp.dition to greater cordiality than I had hi. therto experienced. To M. de Cittnn i nigny's inquiry, whether they had been fortunate enough. by what they had raid, to induce me to deliver the prnje& of a treaty, I anfwered by recalling to his sec , the reafons I had formerly fitted for declining loch a proceeding, till the hafis that had originally beet rropofed was again formally recognized ; and I in, formed him, that, in order so sire them an accurate view of my conception of the tlibjeB, I had prepared a note which I wished to Mork to them, delivering to them the note, a copy of which I had the honour of inelofing in my difpatch.of Augull 29. After reading this note, and obferving in general that they did not know whether, if we fisould come to a particular explanation, we might elm arrive at a eoncluilon coincident in its effects with the objet I bad in view, when I infilled on the peseta' princi. pie, they entered into a detail with raise to the ne• ceffity of Come immediate determination on the fhb• jet% of Hanover, and afterwards Rated their views as to the French poffelLons in the Eall Indies, the Ditch colonies, St. Luck, and Tobago; on all of which, they talked in a (Wefts perfectly different from any thing I had before heard, that I limpid not be more furßrifed if, at our next conference, they were to give them up, titan I was at the change of tune :inanifelled on this occafion. A great deal more palled in the way of general ennvestistion ; all of which tended to thew me, that, althnagh they were Rill at a wide dißance from filch terms as I could accede to, they had wonderfully re• lased from the lone they had antecedently afforned. M. de Champagny then invited me to name a day for terming nor conference. To this I decidedly objected, admitting, at the fame time, that ditty 10.1 made conceffinns in the coutfe of ourdikuffinn ; adding, that'they were Rill fo far from agonies to admit what the Engtifis Government uniforenlyeen ceived the original propofition to have snairayiectiebet I couldnnt yet indulge any hopes of cur coming to an agtement, and fhould therefore feel it necettiry to terminate my million. M. Champagny afked me with tome warmth, whe ther I wished for peace on the terms which I myfell had Anted? 'Whether I thought inyfelf authorized, after the ennceffinns they had kat made, to refute them time to confider how much further they might go ?.and whether I might not reafonably entertain hopes that, with a little time, the differences which appeared now to feparate us might vanifh ? On receiving fuck a remmilltance, I thought it im• poflible not to agree to a renewal of the conference ; and after tome convetfation, Tburfday was fixed for the d&y of our meeting.--(To de continued).
