VA ti et ext — 4, Legillators, in the midi of the nu merous fubjeas of public and private hope with which. we are furrounded„whep every thing tends rapidly to produce national profperity. why limn a peace lb re. cently Avery be violated ? Can it he broken by a people who recently received it with loud acclama tions ? During the long and fangninary contelt. which teemed to have terminated, the Englifla Mini • hers conflantly jetted that they only carried on the • war fee the pore of' repreffing thoCe dangerous opinions which i oing from France, as from a volca no, @cid themfelves all over Europe, and threaten. ed all law, religion, and Government. A man arofe to whom the deflinies of France are entru fled ;—and every thing was immediately changed. The antient and fatred bales of the laws of nations relpeoned, and religion was re-eftablifhed. Is it then againfi the 'author of fo many benefits, that thefe reproaches are diretted ? Yet, without being deterred by fo fingu hr an abfurdity, it has been thought fit to accufe him, 'who, in Caving France, laved all Europe from that general conflagration which it was endeavoured. vi extinguith by force of arms. An 'extraordinary agitation was form manifelted by the Britillt Minillry, • and demands injurious to France and her indepen dence were made. The Englilh Miniflera dared to plate the Firtt Magiarate of the Republic between difgrace and war. But he, who has fo Often difplay. ed all the greatnefs of a magnanimous foul, replied is the nation herfelf would have done.

Were it poffible to feparate the Itifttity of the negotiation of the Chief Conful from. that of his exploits, we would imagine that we con templated the *Sion; of a Magiflrate devoted entire- It to the Civil Authorities of the State, and who con ildettd only the means of confolidating Peace. By that admirable conslutt he has merited the title of Paiifrater. 'That conduit. as much as the commu- Cation of the late negotiations, will convince the ; II bblic that he has employed the greateß efforts for itv ding the war with which weare menaced. Finally, that condo t will render the war truly national. Yes, Citizens Legi fl ators. the whole nation will more than ever rally under the banner of a Chief, who is as great in the Council as in the field. The courage of our wartiors will emulate his courage; their warlike boldnefs will correfpond with his enterprifing adivi- ty rand fince a new centeß is need...my, he will re- 1 gi. to it with a true martial fpirit. I move that a potation of as Members relent to the Govern *bent folemn felicitations omits noble efforts for the tnitintenance of peace, and the wifdom of the negoti ations, and on its magnanimous firrnneis ; and finally that this Addrefs may be the refult of the uriani- , Mous featirnents of the Legiflative Body.

The Chancellor of the Empire having received the orders of the Emperor relative to the invitation made to his Imperial &Netly by the two principal Con tra/ling Partiec to the Treaty of Amiens, to accede , in quality of guarantee to tb-s Treaty. fo far as re lates to the Order of St. John of Jerofaiem, and their relloratiott to the prilleffion of the Viand of Malta and its dependencies, is authorifed to give to the communications of the 22d of October the follow. ing reply)_ ~ Elsa Majefli the Emperor, from the moment of his acceflion to the Throne, has constantly (hewn 10 ftrong a defire to feize every opportunity which pre. rented Well of giving to the two principal Contract ing Parties to the Treaty of Amiens the molt tine. quivocal proofs of his fincere defire to do whatever might be agreeable to both of them, and to contri bute as far as was in his power to re-eflablifh and to eon& m the continuance of the peace existing betwixt them, that it cannot now be fuppofed that his inva riable fentimeats on this point can have fuffeted any change. On the other hand, the two Governments are too equitable not to acknowledge that it is beyond the Power of the Emperor to yield to the demands made to him, in virtue of the loth Article of the Treaty of Amiens. which fixes the future ellablith ment of the Order of St. John of Jerufalem, fine it is, under every confideration, impoffible for his Imperial Majeßy to accede as a guarantee to Ili pulations which are not only contrary to willies ex preffed relative to the Order, honoured by the intereft he felt in their favour, and the proteCtion he had pledged himfelf to give them, but which would be inconfiftent with what had been agreed upon anterior to that Treaty betwixt his Imperial Majefly and one of the two Contraaing Powers, with refpea to the faid Order, and relative to the independence and neutrality of the Maud of Malta. " This confideration, as important in izfelf, as it is necetrarily fupported by confiderations of a diffe rent kind, has obliged the Emperor not to accede to the pre(ling requetb, which have been made to him on the point, by the Court of London, in lithe of the ardent defire of his Imperial Majelly to comply with the vases expreffed on this fubea. The difpo fi tions which that Court has manifef ied to accede to the wifhes of the Emperor. with refpeft to the Order and the Mead of Malta, and the readineis expreffed by the French Government to concert meafures for promoting the fame end, have not failed to be felt with correfponding liniments of gratitude by his ' Imperial Majeßy. But, he obstacle which oppofed his compliance with their wifhes was not weakened. fince the public and formal aitt continued fill con tradiziory to the knows and expreffed intenior, or his lmpesial Majelty, and that it was for this at that his guarantee was f 4icised. Sin, however, one of the principal diffi 'Mies i. iensoved by the nomination and acknowledgment of the Grand Matter, his Ma. jelly the Empei or, &firms, of giving to the contras - tug parties to the 'f eaty of Amiens the cleareß proofs of his friendfhip, and wifhing to omit nothing on his part which can tend to confolidate the ghneral tran quality of Europe, has determined to popofe to the two Governments the only plan "thief'. r under R ing circumllances, can furnifh the pnffibility of wav ing the demand which they have mutually made. and this plan would be, that the two contraaing Powers (hould form a Convention, or fome other ad fup plementary to the Treaty of Amiens, by which the sods Article of the raid Treaty relative to the Order and the hand of Malta might be modified, altered. and completed, with refpeet to (event of its difpofi tiont, agreeably to the Ripulations of the firll ar rangement agreed upon by his Imperial Majelly ; which, by this means, being fully and formally re elkabliffied. would receive the fame fanaion as the Treaty. of which they would then form an integral pan. If the two Powers believed that fuch a fup plementary article could be agreed upon, his Majefty the Emperor would bean to accede to it in quality of Guarantee, and to %hare the obligations attached to fuch a charaaer with the Courts of Vienna, Ma drid,Naples,and Berlin. His Imperial Majetly would do this the more readily, becaufe, in complying with the wifhes of the two Powers, he would only follow the impulfet of his own feelings on this fubjeft, from which he is defirous of giving them manifeß and reiterated proofs of his good will, by concurring in all poffible cafes with their willies. The Chancellor, by order of the Emperor, that in this affair no delay might be fuppofed to arife on the part of the Court of Ruffia, haßens to fubjoin a Projet of the Articles which may fern as the balls of a fupplementary aet alluded to above, in cafe the two Powers lhould be inclined to accede to it. c Chancellor of the Empire in communicating thefe i.litruEtions to General Hedouville.
