(Continued from our Piper of yesterday.) Tire French Emperor proposed to Count Haugwits a Treaty, in which was stipulated on the one side a mutual guarantee of possessions, the inviolability of the Turkish territory, and the results of the peace of Preslterg ; and on the other, the taking possession of Hanover by Prussia, in retool for the cession of three provinces. The first part of this Treaty promised, at least for the future, an acknowledged, guaranteed, and, if Napoleoehad so pleased, • firm, political Constitution. The results of the Peace of Frei burg were a general mlfortune to Europe, but Prussia sacri ficed hermit' storm whew she accepted them; and to place a limit to the incessant usurpations of France, should the Treaty hatanaideeed by the Court of St. Cloud as any thing mere than words, appeared an advantage : the king therefore unified Ithis Ankle conditionally. The second half of the Treaty of Vienna related to an ob. jc:t, the importance of which had been manifested by aeries experience. Prussia could not rely no security for a moment,l so hang as Hanover remained involved in a war, m which that country had, in fact, no concern. At whatever price it sight be purchased, Prolate was re. solved that the French should not return thither. She had her choice to obtain this end, either by a treaty, era war....- The cessien of three provinoes,which had heen faithful and hap py for a long series of years, was • sacrifice not to be wade for any plan of vain ambition ; but these provinces would, in east of a war, have been the first sufferers ; all the calamities of that war would have prea.ed upon the Monarchy ; while the acquisition of Hanover, could it have been mails under less unhappy circumstances would have been productive of the l most valuable advantages to Prussia. The King, therefore, courelved that he reconciled his wishes with his princieles, when he accepted the proposed (echoer, only tinder the cendif.on, thst the fulfilment of the tome should be ii,f,trred till the general peace, and that the consent of His Ma;asty the Emig of Great Britton should be obtained.

Bin, between a policy, which wind° tereryt' log in its power, .rid an integiitc, which regards its duties, and especially ito 1 , 10- noes, the contest Is ever unequal. The King aproached the lionsent when lie was convinced of this by experience ; this notnent was the most painful of his reign. 11. was the affair of France to njeti the modifications u nder hich the King had confirmed the Treaty, if she d d not ape .rove them. Brit she avoided doing this, for the whole Prus- Oen army was still under arms. She continued to be lavish of Assurances of friendship; she fulfilled the Treaty as far at it suited her; but, when His Majesty wished to reap the only _advantages which he had proposed to himself from the late ne gociations, and which were nearest ho heart, she suddenly al tered her language ; the modifications added to the 'Freely of Vienna, were now reteeted at Paris. Endeavours were made to force Prussia into the most injuriou s measures; and when Count flaugwitz, who was at Paris, remonstrated against this, the unconditional fulfilment of the treaty was haughtily insisted on, as was the immediate cession of the three Provinces, and the recal of the patent by which the occupation of Hanover was declared provisional. Prussia was required to iesign a part of the advantages stipulated, and to shut her ports against the British flag, in the saute manner as if the French had returned into the Eledotats. The King at length was perfectly convinced of the true character of the friendship of the Emperor of the French--a soptinfic draught for a power which still feels its own strength; an instrument , of degradation, and finally of subjestion, to , every power which no longer poranses strength. In the mean tame, Napoleon was in possession of every ad. vantage. The Prussian army had returned; his own, after some movements, of no consequence, at which deceived Ger many rejoiced prematurely, on some frivolous pretences, este. Wished itself on this side the Rhine. The fiat conflict might produce misfortunes. War, which is nut, under all circum stances, the greatest of evils, might become such under these then existing. Tine King determined ao continue the part he had hitherto acted, for some time longer. Wishing to preserve hie force now, more than ever necessary to Europe; sod, at least, to secure the tranquillity of the North, he confirmed the • new Treaty. Confidence, however, was now utterly lust.— Prussia was consinced, that on the flea opportunity to weaken her without danger, she might expect as ettackirsess her pre tended Ally ; coutinced that there is a degree of ambition which nothing can satiety, which proceeds, without inter mission, front usurpation to usurpation, sometimes without a plan, but ever intent on destruction, careless of the cliu.ce of means, and employing alike, arms and the pen, violence and oaths. But even with this eeneittion--so great is the unfortunate superiority obtained by such policy ever those who wish only to he jest—the King fulfilled all the conditions of the Treaty, with the punctuality of a Ibithful ally. It is known what the consequences were with respect to the connections of Hui Majesty with ENS land. Trance gained nothing by this; but she triumphed in secret at the thought of having disunited two Court., the union of which might have been dangerous to her; and what, in the view of Eisner, gave the principal value to her alliance with the King, was, that this alliance isolated Flo Majesty, since it produced an opinion that Prussia war a par. ticipatur in the Lame of so many mistinto Rm. But, net contest with this, we shall me in what manner the politics of France, assured that she had now no enemy to fear, believing that she had annihilated Austria, forming a judgment of Russia with equal ignorance and rashr.ess, and blinded by the apparent tranquillity of Prussia, at length threw err the mask, and, despising forms which she had hitherto sometimes respected, openly trampled on all treaties and all rights. Three months after the signing et the Treaty with Prussia, all its are titles were violated. The Treaty had for its basis the Maas quo of the moment in which it was concluded ; also the guarantee of the Guinan Empire sad its States, wonting to the Coestitutlen then established. This truth arises not only from the nature of things; the Treaty had also expressly resented to the two pewees their duties. The relations in which the Peace et Preaburg had left Ilia Majesty, the Emperor of Austria, wen' guaranteed to his consequently, also, the Imperial CIO'S el' Germany, and the rights connected with it. The traiesintee of , Bavaria, and consequently the relations which had connected it tor so many centuries to the empire, were likewise confirmed' by the same common guarantee. Twee months after, the. Confederation of the Rhine overthrew the Germanic CoSda tution, deprived the Emperor of the ancient ornament odhie house, mid placed Bivaria, and thirty other Princes, under tile" tutelage of France. Wit is it necessary to appeal to treaties, to f..rm a just lodg ment of this extraordinary e'en' ) Provisos to all treaties, na tions have their rights ; and had not France sportedwith the sanctity of an 01th, this act of unexampled despotism would exasperate rainy mind.

Nu—wan sod coretimod viaor.es have sometimes produced great and remarkable cataatroihrs ; but such art example, in time of peace, was clever before given ' to the word. The King conamnerated the unfortunate Prances who suf fered ►y these transitions, but he pitied not less those who had suffered themselves to be lured by the hope of gain, and he would reproach himself, should he increase their un happiness, by judging them with too great severity Deluded by the reward of their compliance, probably forced to obey command., which admitted of no opposition ; or, if sur prised into content, sufficiently r unArd by their acquisitions , and by being reduced to a state of vassalage, en harsh and de. grading, es their former relations were honourable, they de serve nut to be treated by Germany with the utmost rigour.

Yet, be . .* the decision of Russia na this Treaty could be known, France had already annihilated the whole frame indeeirotitution of the German Empire ; had Seduced under her own yoke, a large proportion of the states sod proems's of Germany ; and not content with tins open contempt of obligations so recently contracted, had, at the mine time, instigated the Porte to measures directly subven•ive of her subinting 'opponents with Russia. While such a conduct was punned towards His Majesty, temente his Mlles, and towards all independent Powers, there oppearod soliidle hope of any favourable issue to the Nericia ion, that His Majesty's Plenipotentiaries demanded their Pass ports to return to England. This demand was at first eluded by an unusual end unex plained delay, and the Freud% Govern= rat afterwards, by some material concessions, acconipantecl with intimations that others of still greater consequence might be the result of further dis_ eussion, procured a renewal of the conferences, which were protraaol from day to day, till at length it was announced at Paris, that the Emperor of Roane had indignantly rejefted the unauthorised and separate Treaty signed by his Minister. • in consequence of this important event, the strongest mit:r isco were given to His Majesty's Minister, that France was now. nrepared to make sacrifices to a great extent, in order, by securii.g Peace with Great Criain, to re establish the tranquil. lity of the world. The otnea of these aanarances appeared however to be, that a engaging His Majesty in a separate Negotiation, to the ex "buten of his allies; a propoial which His Majesty had rejea ed in the °wise', and which he enuld stilt less admit of at a time when the conduct of Russia had imposed on him an in- creased obligation not to separate hie interests from those of in faithful an Ally. To these insidious Overtures, His Majesty steadily refused to listen ; but he took the most effectual me. thod to avoid all appearance of delay, and to accelerate, if pos. sible, the favourable issue of the Negotiation. The confiden tial intentouse which he had constantly maintained with Rus. eia, enabled His Majesty to specify the terms on which Peace with that Power might be obtained ; and his Minister was ac cordingly instructed se mote to France, in addition to his own demands, those of hie Ally, to reduce them into distinct artistes, and even to conclude on those grounds a Provisional Treaty, to take offset whenever Luna should signify her accession. • This form of negotiating was, after some objection, acceeded to by France ; teems were now offered te His Majesty, 11004111 wearily approaching, than before, to the original boars of !Sego elation ; bet theme were atilt far short of what His Majesty had ernifersty insisted on, and was now more than ever entitled to deepect, and the decides rejection of the jest demands of Rue. sir, as well as of the Condition, proposed by His Majesty in behalf of his other Allies, left to His Majesty nn other course than that of ordering his Minister to terminate the discussion, ani return to England. The foregoing short and simple exposition of facts stands in seed of no comment. The first overtures which led to No gertztion were made by the enemy, and they were accepted ty Hi. Majesty in the sinews* split of poses. Every opening "high scorned to afford the most &statist prospect of accom modation has been antiously embraced, nor was the Negoti ation finally broken off, while any hope of a favourable issue meld be easertained. His MMesty's demands were uniformly jro and teasoriable; din: tad to no objects of personal aggran disement, bet to matt Duly as were indimeasibly required by Si. honour of his Crewe. his engegbasents to tits Allier, and a dee consideration of the general interests of Europe. It is with heartfelt cowmen, that Ha Majesty contemplate , the coatinuance of those evils always • Memorable from a state M war; but it is with his imenam that this awful reeporistbility sew; and for the issuedf the contest His Majesty trusts, with mefiderme, to We leaded of hit cause; to the resources and bravely of his people, In the fidelity of his Allies ; and, • same in, to the yeetedies and sapped of the Divine Pro %Owe. In contribiding to the greet idioms which such a contest must unaveidalgy require, his faithful and affectionate subjects will net forget Met di their 111.4111111 i interacts are at stake; that So sacrifices they eec be called upon to make am to be com pared with the certain diagram and rein of yielding to the in jurious pretensions of the enemy ; that with the invirlable maintenance of the good faith and public honour of their country, its prosperity, its strength, and its independence, are essentially connected; and that In "mini the eights, and up holding the &inky of the British Empire, they defend the snow powerful bulwark of the liberties of mankind. THE BRITISH PRESS. LONDON, WEDNESDAY, Ocroliß 22. The Gwenlie of last night contains Hit Masssrv's Declaration upon the rupture of the Negociation for Peace witw France. It is given in our pre- ceding columns, and in its plainness and simplicity eallibits a cause that stands not in need of any varnish or ornament. It has been asserted, falsely asserted, by those who would blast the fair fame ei Mr. Pox, and lower the spirit of England, that the first offer ef negociation was made by the British Government ; that Mr. Fox, in his pacific spirit, humbled his country before the Tyrant of Fiance, and consented to the basis of a sepa rate Peace, regardless of all Continental Allies and connetrtions. The Manifesto rescues the me- many of Mr. Fox (rotn this foul imputation, and exhibits the country in that proud attitude, to which, in relation to the test of Europe, it has aspired, in Cie most prosperous and brilliant =as of its history. The first offer was made by the French Govern- Mom upon the basis of the 'di posstdetis and mutual slispensation, except in the instance of 1-lanovor, which, having been unjustly attacked, was to be re stored without Any equivalent. This basis, though fair and promising, was not acquiesced in by His BLIT ANNIC MAJESTY, WithOUt an express stipula tioan to negociate in concert with his Allies.
