The arrangement of the Indemni• ties is nearly the fame as that already announced. The Ew valcia, in the decree of the ratification, txpreffes hitufelf as follows: Aher the conclufion of the convention, on the ie:th of December, feveral additions, changes, and propofitions having been added to the principal decree of the deputation of November 23, another general decree of the Deputation was paffed on the 25th of February, an adoption of which was propofed by the Avis of the Empire, under certain eiprefs refereed conditions. His lIMPIRIAL Ma bating Maturely examined all the circum fiances which have been mentioned, and in con• fequence of a refire of his deareft interefts, finds himfelf determined to give his approbation to the raid Avis of the Empire, in his quality of Supreme thief, under the following conditions : That the convention concluded at Paris on the i6th of December year, and communicated to the General Diet of the Empire, ought to be main tained iri all its vigour and obligations, according to the literal text of its articles, and efpecially in what concerns the referees contained in Art. IV. That in fo Ear as there referees confider the rights which belong to his Majefty as Emperor, and fupreme Chief of the Empire, the legal and ufual exercife of there rights mull be maintained, both in the execution of the prefent Ad and for the time to come. „ That the confirmation of the fundamental Laws of the Empire, particularly of the Treaty of Weflphalia, and of fubfequent Treaties of Peace, in fit far as not exprefsly abrogated by the Treaty of Luneville, and the prefent as of the Empire, mentioned in the Abe, of the Empire of the a4th of March, as well as the referve which is there propofed irt regard to maintaining the Con. Ilitut ion of the Germanic Empire in all other points which arc not exprefsly changed, fuck as it has hitherto exifted, for the Eleltors, Princes. and States of the Empire ; among which mull be corn prehended the Teutonic Order ; and the imme diate Nobility of the Empire ball be realifed, exe cuted, and maintained. ” That the objedions which his Imperial Ma jelly has caufed to be produced, in confequeoce of the propofitions which the Deputation had before made, for increafing the number of virile votes in the College of Princes, not having been obviated by pollerior propofitions, his Imperial Majeay finds hlmfelf obliged by the dude's to which he Is bound for the maintenance of the conflitution of the Em pire, and the proteelion of the Catholic Religion, to fapend provifionally the ratification in regard to that objett, and to referve to hinifelf to demand immediately by a decree of commiffion, that these Mall be formed a fat tiler Avis of the Empire. to provide by fuitable propolitions, that, as a decided majority of votes has already devolved to the Proteflant States in the Etc/tore! College, and in that of the Imperial Cities, the ufual relations' between the two religions may not be fo changed in the College of Princes, that the parity of rotes be creatially dellroyed. " In the Lift place, in regard to the points of the Lift decree of the deputation, the regulation of of which is Bill fohjea to future pmpofitions and segoclations, Each, for example. as thole found at the end of the ad and 29th paragraphs, the olts. riot intervention which belongs to him is refereed fit his Imperial Majefiy. M His Majefiy, in formally giving under theft conditions his ratification to the Avis of the Em pire of March 34, io his quality of Supreme Chief. embraces this oppostaaity of publicly 'citify iag his 1 lincere gratitude, and that of the Empire, for the 1)l icitude and good offices of the two medi ating Powers in the prefent important affair ; and he confidently hopes, that tilde Powers will ami• cably acknowledge the moll convincing proofs of the camel' regard of the Emperor and of the Em pire for their v.iffies and propofitions, and that thereby the work of peace, which is now con lummated, will be enfured and confolidated in the moil durable manner.
