SITTING Oki T 111: TENTH JANUARY. The Sitting opened at three o'clock in the noon, under the Presisioncy of his Serene Higt the Prince Arch:Chancellor of the Empire. His Excellency the Nlinister fur Foreign Aga, was present at the Sitting, Their Excellencies Counts Regnard de St. Jean D'Angely, and Deferrnan, Ministers of State and Counsellors of State being introduced, his Serene Highness the Arch-Chancellor spoke in these terms t 66 GENTLEMEN—The nation is of itself disposed to adopt measures which it judges necessary for the maintenance of its glory, and for the pr e se rvat i on o f its preponderance in Europe. 6 , From al; parts of this vast Empire, addresses succeed each other ; offers multiply ; the public will is ready to outstrip the appeal of sovereign authority. 46 The Emperor, who reckons upon the love of his people, and who appreciates their resources, bas judged that there is no reason for varying from usual dispositions. "His Majesty would even have deferred em u them if an unexpected event had not made him s. that the profiting of the useful Co-operation of Os. allies, depended upon the develOpenient of our burn forces, which is to accelerate the moment of an ho. sour-able peace, such as a Ficnch heart can desire. and such as his Majesty has not ceased to offer his enemies. •• It is in that spirit, Gentlemen, that the project submitted to your deliberation has been digested. Gentlemen, Orators of the Council of State, you will expose the motives, the advantages of it, after the Minister for Foreign Affairs has read to you a report, and certain papers, of which his Majesty has i commanded a communication to be mAdo to you." His Excellency the Minister for Foreign Affairs then communicated the following report t REPORT FROM THE MINISTIR FOR FOREIGN AFFAIRS TO j HIS SIAJESTY THE EMPEROR AND XING. 44 SlßE—When Russia, violating her treaties and renouncing her alliance with France, to unite herself • with the system of England, declared war against your Majesty, you apprehended, Sire, all the import. ante of the contest in which you were going to en gage. You appreciated the formation, nadir the ;* title of Cohorts of the National Guards, of DX bat., talinns of men between 20 and '26 years of age, who belonging to the six last classes of the Conscription, I had not been called to the active army. This insti• tution has had all the success which your Majesty could have expected from it. A warlike youth pre• pared to the trade of war under the instruction of old soldiers, eagerly demand to partake of the glory of their brethren in arms. When fiom Smoleusko your Majesty advanced towards Moscow, your vic torious arms, you did not dissimulate that its pm gress in the enemy's country added fresh chances to. the common chances of war. You wished to furthtr strengthen the basis of its operations, and you ol der. ed the levy of the Ctaisct iptton for 11115, the whole a of which is now under arms. 64 With the gariisons of the fortresses of France and Italy, your Majesty has therefore in the interior of your dominions, a force of more than 300,000 men, sufficient to support the war against Russia during the next campaign. And your intentions, Sire, was not to demand any extraordinary succours if our allies, and especially as Austria, Denntaik, ' and Prussia remained faithful to the common cause.
