I had the honour to fend by M. de Longuinoff dir patches, acquainting you, for his Majesty's informa tion, of the peace figned between the Ruffian and French Plenipotentiaries, and with as untrue a datement of the terms as I was able to obtain.— M.

On the and I received the Official Notification of the appointment of General Clarke to treat on the part of France (a Copy of which I have the honour to enclofe, marked A.) preceded by a private com munication from M.Talleyrand, laying that the Rol flan Peace being figned, and the feaEn of the year f mumble to the accomplifhment of the ulterior views of France, no arrangement which might re. move for fome weeks, or even months, a Definitive Treaty could oow take place. I anfwered the Official Note (marked A) with one, a Copy of which I enclofe (marked B.) In the evening, General Clarke propofed a confe rence for the following morning, at which we fhould mutually exchange our full powers. We accordingly did fo ; and I have the honour to enclofe (marked C.) a copy of thole of General Clarke. This conference began by an hiflorical recapitula tion of what had previoufly paired, General Clarke toying, he had not yet received his final inftrudions on all the different points in difcuffion ; it was there. fore agreed to adjourn the conference to this day, when each Mould come prepared with a memoran dum of the intentions of his Government, founded on What had already paled; General Clarke at the fame time declaring, that a feparate peace with RuTha was, to be confidered equal or fuperior, in the prefent eir-, cumflanees of the world, to any great feccefs in war, and confequently as entitling France to terms much more advantageous than thole to whic;i die would have fubfcribed louse days ago. This was accompa• nied by Come animadverfroas upon the conduit of Ruflia, to which I could only anfwer, that I felt it my duty Wald:lain from any remark, and Could, there fore, hie. entirely talent upon the (tibial ; but that I could Ware him, that if an intention exided of mak. ing any change in the great points upon which we had had fuch•pofirive, though certainly not official affurances, namely, his Majesty's German dominions, Malta. and the Cape, I mull confider the negotiation as flopped is Graise,and that there would remain only for me to return to England, and acquaint the King, that no peace, confident with his Majesty's honour, or that of the country, could be made. General Clarke reverted to his want of lußindrußions, and promifed to meet me properly prepared, the next day. At three o'clock this day, I again met General Clarke, when I read a paper, a Copy of which I have the honour to enclofe (marked D.) containing the Abdraft of what 1 had always dated to be the balls and terms on which his Majedy could alone content to treat. I did not, however, deliver it to him, con. fidering it merely as the heads of pail converfations. General Clarke then raid, that as it was irhpoffibla I could be prepared with the alert of his Moja,' to the arrangement propofed by Rada for his Sicilian Majelly, on which the terms might much depend, I, mutt confider the communication be made as not fiddly official in point of form, lout as depending only on that circumll d nce to make it fo. General Clarke proceeded to (late, that, in the fits.. ation France was in at this moment, the Emperor would feel authorized to withlo.ld Come of the great points ; but that having repeatedly laid the contrary, though not in an official manner, he would abide by it. General Clarke firfl converfed about his Majesty's German dominions. On this fubjee, by ferret articles, any thing his Majetly thinks right may be fiipulated : by the public article, the promife not to objelt to Tome acqiiiiition of territory to be made by Proffitt. I ftoppeo General Clarke here to fay, that his Ma. jelly never could content to the King of Pruffia's ob. raining the Heide Towns. General Clarke Paid, that it was Fulda, Hoye, and Come other trifling mined. palities, over which it was propofed to extend the So. vereignty of his Pruffian Majelly, but that the lode. pendence and prefent date of the Hanle Towns Mould not be meddled with. On the fubjea of Malta—Malta, Goer, and Co. nirro, in full fovereignty to his Majelly, with a claufe in the article, declaratory of the diffolution of the Order, and that the two Powers, ' 4 (a) flies commit feat plus retidence."

On the fobjerd of the maintenance of the Integrity of the territories and polkffians of the Sublime Porte, General Clarke propofed an article, a copy of which I have the honour to fend (marked L) I told him the ufual full chore would be fufficient ; he perGfied that I fhnold fend it for his Majesty's conlidera•ion. To the ufual fall clank of the integrity of the ter ritories and 'poffeffions of his Mod Faithful Majetly, General Clarke weighed upon a propofed addition of the word (I) partout ;" and when ,Eked for expla. nation, laid, he thought his Britannic Majefly might occupy fume of his Molt Faithful Majesty's foreign p airtffioss. . lit The integrity of his Swedifit Idajeßy's dominions in the nfual manner. Having dirmitled there paints, General Clarke Rated the demands of France: Pondicherry, St. Lucie, Tobago, Surinam, Gorce, 4 Demarara, Berbice, Effeqiiibo.

Your Lordikip'sDifpitches conveying themortify ing intelligence of the fignature of.a feparste treaty between Ruffia and France, wete rectivesEhtre yet'. terday ; and his Majefty's Minifters havelinee had the opportunity of being acquainted with the precife term* of that treaty, which it appears had Mart in all refpeas been accurately reprefented to your Lordfhip. The King was molt particularly Bruck with the great difference which was perceived beteicen the ac teal arrangement 'made refpxiling Sicily; and that which had been defcribed to ydur Lordfhip. In writing to your Lordfhip, it is not neeeffary to dwell onthe humiliating conditions to which M. d'Ou. bril has thought proper to bind his Sovereign. Of that Minifler's tnifeondua your Lordlblp appears fully friable ; and I doubt not you exerted yowl& to the utmoft to prevent it. When this was found impradicable, your Lordfhip was naturally placed in circumftances of confiderable difficulty, and for which every allowance is to be made. But it is neceffary for me to fay, frankly, that it would nn the whole have been more fatisfadory to the King's krvants, if your Lordfhip had waited to know the impreffion which this new event might create here, before you had produced your full powers. It was originally declared by your Lordflip to M. Talleyrand, that your full powers were not to be pro duced till the French Government fhoold have re. vetted to the balls of the negociation originally pro. poled by themfelves ; that of the ad paWr .univer filly, with the tingle exception of Hanover. By Cub• fequent inareflions, your Lordfhip had indeed been acquainted that, 3n compliance with the with, fo •ftrongly expreffed by the Ruffian negotiator at Paris, his Mala would not refute to enter into the confe deration o f' fuck propofals as might be made to him for a fair equivalent to be given to Lis Sicilian Ma. jetty in lieu of Sicily, with the full and free content of that Monarch. The propofal of (uch an equivalent, and its acceptance by his Majelly's Govetnnient, would have replaced the negociation on its original , footing, that of a ste)tdidetir, to he departed from only by mutual content, in thole caftarwhere any exchange for a reafnnable equivalent might meet the Ideas of both parties ; and the cafe for the produftion of your Lordlhip's full powers would thus have arifen clearly and unequivocally. Even as the matter now Rands, it does not certainly preclude difeuffion. But this might have been continued unofficially. And it is apprehended that, by producing your powers on the very day after the fignature of the Ruffian Treaty, an impreffion may have been created very unfavour able to the further progrefs of the negociation. In the fituation to which the b iifinell is now brought, his Mildly thinks is necaffary to lute no time in taking every proper ftcp for replacing the dif cuflions between the two Countries on their original footing. The &II propofals made by France were, that a Plenipotentiary &paid be fent from hence with full powers to treat, and to conclude a feparate peace with France and her Allies. Thle was declined here,,not from any unwillininefs to enter into difenffions for peace on jolt and honourable terms, an objeft which his Majelly has uniformly minted himfelf do .tous of accomplithing, but becaufe the King was bound by eetpiresnenta te gai t whidl precluded him from treating otheterik than in concert with that power. ' Subfesnently to this. a propofal was conveyed through your Lardfhip for the concluGun of peate oa the bails fo often refilled to; and the iatermedlate eonimuni catioas received from Ruffs enabled this Majefty. confillently with good faith. to entertain thole pro pofals, and to exprefs his difpofition to accede to them, provided that, in the mode of treating and con cluding, the moll intimate concert fhould Anil be maintained with Ruffia. The extraordinary Rep taken by M. d'Oubril has now removed all neceffity of further referee on this His Ma jelly, in this Rate of things, thinks it proper to combine together the two propofals which be has at different periods received from France ; and, as the difficulty. which before prevented the fending from this country a public Minifter, openly accredited. to treat for peace, now no longer fubfifts. and as an ac ceptable balls of negociation has been propored to him by the enemy, his Majefty dir ells. that your Lordlaip thould apply to M. Talleyrand for paffports for a public Minifter fo authorifed and itecredited,to whom, it is his Majefty's gracious intention to join your Lord flip, in the full powers to be ranted by his Majefty. The great advantages which the King's ferviee will derive from the employment of a perfon fully inftrutled as to the. fentiments of his Majefty's Go. vernment, on all the various points of dircuffion that may arife, cannot Fail to ftrike your Lordthip in the fame light in which they are Peen here • and the King's fervants entertain no doubt of your Lordfliip's zealous and hearty co-operation in the execution of the joint inflruaions which fuch a perfop will bring with him. I have only, therefore, to add. that your Lordthip may allure M. Talleyrand, that as loon as the neceffary paffports are received, there (ball not be an hour's delay in his letting out • and that his Majefty's government continues ardently to with for the conclution of peace, provided it can be accomplilbed on the fame grounds of national honour which have never been loft fight of here. .

Letters were yefterday received at the India Moore, brought by an American veffel. They are dated 28th July, and (late that a very dilagretable affair occur red at Vetlore, fhortly before the letters wets dit: patched. A battalion of Sepoyr, in confequence, it is fuppofed, of a quarrel about fome women, fell up. on the 16th Regiment of Native Infantry, and put every man to death, including two Officers, Major CHAT Las Aam mow°, and another. Immediately after this bloody outrage, a Regiment of Cavalry was fent•for to Arcot, which battened to attack the Sepoys, to whom no quarter was given, nor did the Dragoons think their vengeance complete, until every one of the guilty battalion were facrificed. We have the fatisfaaion to (tate, that this unPlea rant affair did not originate in any fpirit of difaffec tiott to the Government. We yelerday kited, that a Meffenger had arrived with difpatches for Government in the veffel which brought the Lilbon Mall. The difpatches were from Lord'Sv as maroart, and are reported to have brought a communication of force kind, whi:h had been re ceived carets by his Lordibip from the Court of Madrid. The eircumftance of the Meffenger hav ing been difpatched in the Dart, of Jerfey, a very (pick failing veffel, inftead of one of the regular packets, gave rife to various rumours in the City, none of which deferve notice, as the contents of the difpatches have not been (offered to tranfpire. Some private letters from Cadiz, of the Both and (rein Madrid of the 3d infant, mention, that the reports of the recapture of Buenos Ayres continued to prevail in both thefe cities. The report, however, receives no credit in London. His Majefly's (hip Relsonasca arrived at Rio Janeiro on the :6th of Auguft, from Rio de la Plata, at which time no at. tempt had been made to recapture Buenos Ayres by the Spaniards, or to take Monte Video by the Britilb. The Spanill Government Rill• continued to recruit its forces, and the report at Madrid was, that the army, when completed, was intended to ad againft France.
