European Intelligence.
LONDON, March 7.
IT is confidently asserted, that the greatest coolness aAually
subsists at this time between the young Emperor of Ger
many and the Court of France. The Imperial Ambassa
dor residing at Paris is received with the most p^rfett fang froid
by the Grand Monarque and his Minivers; and things are al
together in that Rate between the two courts, that a mutual
recal of Ambafladors is daily expe^ed. The immediate cause
of this difference is a recent requisition made by the Emperor
of Alsace, which is a large and fertile province on the conti
nent now in the possession of the King of France, but formerly
annexed by feudal tenure to the empire of Germany. The
King of Prussia takes a part in this dispute, and has intimated
to the Court of France, that if the Emperor takes any mea
sures for the compulsory attainment of the right he is now urg
ing, he will join with them against him, and lend every afiift
ance in his power to prevent their compliance, as he repre
sents, with so unjust a demand ; but the fad is, to prevent such
an accession of power and property to the Emperor, as would
totally subvert the ballance which subsists between these two
neighbouring monarchs,, and reduce his Prussian Majesty to
the state of a mere tenant at will upon the Imperial Monarch.
To convince the French Court that he is sincere in their behalf
at present, Frederick has actually sent another Ambaffadcr to
Paris, so that he has at this time; two representatives, of tried
talents and fineffe, endeavouring to produce the grand pur
pose of an immediate rupture between the great powers in
question.
That Mr. Wraxall was justified in the fcperiority he lately
gave to the Emperor over the King of Prussia, appears from
hence, —that the Austrian revenues at present amount to
6,900,000!. sterling, whereas those of Prussia do not exceed
5,000,000!. sterling; while .the former are at the fame time
capable of a much greater improvement than theater.
The court of Versailles, we underhand, a¥ not much •
pleased at the readiness exprefled by the court of Madrid, to
come into terms of accommodation with Great Britain. The
only condition that Spain has insisted on as a preliminary, is,
if report fays true, that America ihall not be mentioned or
adverted to in the coiirfe of the negociation.
We are informed, that there have lately been deposited in the
armory in the Tower 50,000 new Hands of arms, which makes
the whole number there now to consist 150,000 stands; the
greatest number that were ever known to be denofited there •
at one time.
While the marine of France remains in port for want of
necessary naval stores, our royal yards are so full that the ware
houses will not hold them ; and yet such has been the pro
vident provision for the future, that new con efpoudences are
opened by the Admiralty for great supplies of plank, mails,
yards, hemp, cordage, pitch, and tar.
,The Emperor of Germany has lately remitted thirty mil
lions of florins to Antwerp, Every meafur^ of this discerning
Prince gives rife to various fptculations.
April 20. A letter from Brussels fays, that Dr. Franklin is
in very good health, and proposes to be at Vienna next month ;
that Mr. Dana, who came over Secretary to Mr. Adams, is
gone, by order of Congress, to Russia, upon special service ;
that young Mr. Laurens, son of the gentleman in the Tower, is
come to Europe upon some special military business with the
court of France from General Waffiington; that he has no
thing to do with Dr. Franklin's department, and is to retard
to America in a few days; that being a young man, without
much experience in business, Congress had sent Mr. Pavne
(author of the celebrated work called Common Senft) to be Se
cretary, &c. to Laurens.
April 14. Six new regiments are ordered to be railed in
Ireland. The Colonels of five cf them, are the following:
Lord Ross, Col. Stopford, Col. Rowley, (brother to Admiral
Rowley,} Col. Maunfell, and General Cunningham. This last
officer has already an old regiment, which is to be given to
his brother, the Governour of Barbadoes. General Cunning
ham is to name all his officers: his companies are to be com
manded by old lieutenants, who are to have leave to fell their
lieutenants commissions.
The officers which came over from America, to wintef
here, have received orders to return to their different regi
ments by the„next fleet, otherwise new officers will be appoint
ed in their stead.
At this time, we understand, the most violent animosities
prevail in the minds of the Spanish and French officers and sai
lors, against each other. So rooted is the antipathy of the
Spaniards in the Cadiz fleet against their French allies, that in
Cadiz lately, the former took the alliance cockades out of their
hats, and trampled upon them in the publick streets, in token
of their detestation and contempt.
When America rebelled; our attempts to bring the people
back to their loyalty, were looked upon as deftrudive to this
country when France joined the rebels, there was not a
doubt of it Spain absolutely fixed our downfal, and Hol
land has finally doomed us. Yet at each period of these pre
dictions, we grew more mighty, and bidding defiance to pa
triotick omens, find ourselves a match for the whole quadru
ple alliance. c ,
fpril 18. Commodore johnftone's further orders are, in
case he succeeds against the Cape of Good Hope, to proceed
immediately to he island of Ceylon, where the Dutch are but
indifferently regarded by the natives, and from whence they
have all their cinnamon, and other rich spices.
When the population of both France and England are con
sidered, it will appear astonishing, that the latter should be
able to produce so many more men for the sea service, than the
former. In the course of fix years, from 1774 to 1780, it is a
fafy that we have raided 175,990 men to serve on board ouc
ships of war ; and during the fame space of time, we recruited
our armies with 76,885 effective men.
Nothing short of unconditional fubmiffibn on one fide, or
total independency on the other, feenis to be the bone of Ame^
rican contention at this day. All ideas of peace without some
decisive blow are idle. For America will not yeild without
compulsion, nor Great-Britain give up the copteft while she
can maintain an army. The great political question then is>
who can persevere the longest ? The answer certainly must be
Great-Britaini
