VIENNA, (Germany) FEB 12,
The following notification has been
transmitted from the States Chancery
to the agents and States of the Em
pire :
" The French Republic has requir
ed, as an express condition of the new
armidice for 30 days, that during that
time, not only the peace with Austria
shall be finally concluded, but that the
Emperor, as head of the Empire, shall
ad definitively for the German Em
pire, in order to avoid the delays inse
parable from a Congress. The Empe
ror has not been able to refufe consent
ing to. this proposition, and finds it ne
cellaiy to give this notice of it to the
States. He will, on this occasion, ex
ert himfelf as much as shall be in his
power, for the good of the whole em
pire ; but should the result not prove
conformable to his wishes, it must be
considered as a consequence of the un
favourable circumstances in which he
finds himfelf; and such of the States,
as shall conceive themselves to have
cause of complaint, must apply imme
diately to the French Republics"

From Berlin we learn,the Prussian Min
istry on the 13th Feb. gave another
note to Lord Carysfort in which his
Prussian Majesty expresses his astonish
ment that England Should confider the
Northern Confederacy as hostile—its
objed being merely to secure the neu
tral trade. The note concludes by de
claring, that as Prussia had acceded to
the Northern Convention, she would
support it, agreeably to her engage
ments, and if the embargo on Swedish
and Daniih vessels was not taken off,
Die would be under the necessity of em
ploying the means which providence
had placed in her hands to procure jus
tice for her friends and allies.
LONDON, MARCH 2.
The Hamburg mail brings certain
intelligence of the landing of a division
of the British army under Gen. Aber
crombie, in the Bay of Monvry, near
Damietta, in Egypt, early in January,
without opposition; The news is offi
cial from Lord Minto. The troops
have been joined by a division of the
Turkish army. The French force in
Egypt including Copths and Hrabs, is
estimated tit about 30,000. There was
a rumour in circulation at Constanti
nople, Jan. 10, that our army has been
defeated. We cannot find, however,
that this rumour rests upon any grounds
which shall entitle it to credit,
There does not appear to be any
foundation to the rumour brought by
the firft mail of the defeat of the Eng
lish at Damietta.

House of Commons, Feb. 28. mr.
Sheridan adverting to mr. Nicholls's
motion for an inquiry into the cause
and extent of his Majesty's illness, in a
speech of peculiar candor and feeling,
deprecated all present difcullion on the
subject; he felt assured, that should,
unhappily, the King's confirmed and
continued illness render communication
necefiary, his Majesty's Ministers would
not be deficient in their duty. He
therefore moved an adjournment until
Monday.—Mr. Pitt seconded the mo
tion ; and after complimenting mr.
Sheridan on his honourable, loyal, and
affectionate declaration, " I cannot,"
said he, " disguise the peculiarity of
situation, owing to the heceffity of the
Call, in appearing again in this House,
as I did not expect to appear, as one of
his majesty's ministers ; in which situa
tion I mull continue, while the cause of
that continuance remains." He ob
served, that should his majesty's illness
continue contrary to the well-founded
herpes of those immediately about his
person, and the country at large, his
majesty's Ministers, under whatever
circumstances, would feel it their duty
to bring the fhbje& before the conside
ration of the House, and propose such
measures as n^y tend to prevent any
obftruclion to the necessary dispatch of
public business. He trusted that all
difference on public opinions would
subside until the period should arrive
for difeuding them. After some short
observations from mr. Nicholls, the
question of adjournment was carried.
march 4. His majesty is on the
recovery.
Mr. Pitt has intimated to the Gover
nor of the Bank, that he means to keep
the Seals, and continue in office until
he can resign his trust into the hands of
his Majesty.
It is said that Mr. Pitt had a long
audience of the Prince of Wales, in con
sequence of a request transmitted to
Carleton house in the morning. The
objed of the visit was to represent to
the Prince his own peculiar situation,
together with that of the country, in
consequence of the king's sudden and
unexpected indisposition, and to submit
to his royal highness the measures he
confidei ed necessary to be taken. It'was
true that he had tendered his resigna
tion to his majesty ; that the resigna
tion had been graciously accepted and
publicly announced, and that he had
only remained in office fbr Several days
past, for the Specific purpose bf facilitat
ing that part of the public business
which had come most immediately un
der his observation and department.
The conclusion, however, was, that
notwithstanding all that had passed; he
was Rill de faßo in office, and he tho't
it his duty to hold his situation until
his majesty's recovery, or until Some
other disposition of affairs.

THE KING'S SICKNESS.
COUPLAND, JAN. 22.
This open and explicit declaration accorded
with the assurances which the undersigned had
more than once given to Lord Carysfort on
;the fame fubjeCt ; and it is difficult to conceive
:how the Englijb Court could conclude, as it as
, terwards appeared that it did, from the note
of the Danish minister, that the convention of
the contracting powers went to eflablilh new
principles of maritime law, which had never
been acknowledged by the tribunals of Europe,
and the object of which was hostile to England.
The conclusion is totally falle, and as little
authorized by the answer of the Danish epurt
as the undeserved accufatien that it proposed ;
to excite a hostile confederacy against Great-
Britain, and with that view was employed in
active preparations..
Never were measures more inconteftibly
merely defenfive, than those of the court of Cq
j penhagen ; and the spirit of them will be less
I miftahn, when it is recollected what menac-
Iring demonstrations that court experienced on
'fhe part of theßritifh government, in confer
° queoce of the affair of the frigate Freya, be
fore it adopted thoff measures.
The arbitrary conduct of England on this oc
casion is naturally explained by the loft, pre.
& lith loft, at the alliance of a league
from Calais. She had on board fifty
two thousand piaftres, which were lav

EER Y IMPOR TANT and
OFFICIAL STATE PAPER.
LEIPSIC, FEB. 16.
THE following is a copy of the Note tranf
mitced on the 12th of February, by the
Prussian Mirti&r, Count Haugwitz, to Lord
Carysfort, the English Ambafidor, at Berlin.
The undersigned, &ate,and Cabinet Minis
ter, has laid before . His Prussian majesty the
two Notes which Lord Carysfort, Envoy Ex
traordinary and Miniller Plenipotentiary from
His majesty the King of Great-Britain and Ire
land, has done him the honor to transmit to
him on the 27th of January and ill of Februa
ry last.
The Undersigned having jt in commission to
return an explicit and circumstantial answer,
is under the necessity of informing Lord Carys
fort that his majefly cannot fee without the ut
most grief and concern, the violent and bast,
measures to which the court of London has pro
ceeded against the Northern Naval Powers.—
Error alone can have given occasion to these
measures, as the assertions in the Note of the
27th fufficiently (hew. In that it is said that
the Maritime Alliance, Ms for its object to an
nul the Treaties formerly concluded with Eng
land,and to prescribe Laws to her with refpe&
to the principles of them ; that the Neutrality
is only a pretext to impose these laws on her
by force, and to eflablifh a hostile alliance a
gainst her.
Nothing however, is farther from the above
mentioned Negociation, than the principles
here supposed. It is founded in justice & mod
eration, and the communication of a Copy of
the Convention to such of the Belligerent Pow
ers as had the just ice and patience to wait for
the fame, will prove this beyond the possibility
of a denial
Further late Foreign NEWS.
When in the beginning of January the Min
ister of his Britannic majesty officially proposed
to the Undersigned the question-—“ Whether
the Northern Courts had actually concluded
the Confederation which had been reported,
and whether Prussia had acceded to it ?"- —the
King conceived that the refped which Sover
eigns owe to each other, and the liberty posses
sed by every independent State to consult its
own interests, without rendering in account to
any other power, authorized him to withhold
any communications relative to himfelf and his
Allies, and contented himfelf with answering,
that as he had seen, without interfering, the
connexions which England had entered into
without conflilting him, he considered himfelf
asentitled to the fame confidence ; and that if
the King of Great Britain thought it his, duty
to support the rights and irifere^ of his King
dom, His Prussian majesty considered h ax not
less his duty to employ every means in the de
fence of the rights and interest of his fUbjeXs.
T^is answer might have fufficed a few weeks
since ; but in the situation in which affairs now
are, the King thinks himfelf called upon to
make an explicit declaration to the court of
London, relative to the spirit of the Treaty,
which has probably been attacked, because it
was not known, and which is far from having
the offenfive views of which the contrasting
parties have been arbitrarily accufcd. They
have expressly agreed that their measures shall
be neither hostile nor tend to the detriment of
any country, but only have for their objeX the
security of the trade and navigation of their
fubje&s.—They have been attentive to adapt
their new connections to present circumstances.
The ftriX justice of His majesty the Emper
or of Russia has, even in the detail, proposed
modifications which alone might be fufficient
to indicate the spirit of the whole. It has since
been determined that the Treaty shall not be
prejudicial to those Treaties which had been
before concluded with any of the Bellige
rent Powers. It was also resolved, that this de
termination should be candidly communicated
to these Powers, to prove the purity of the mo-,
tives and views of the contracting parties.—
But England would not allow them time for
this. Had she waited this confidential commu
nication, (he might have avoided those intem
perate measures which threaten to spread still
wider the flames of War. She might likewise
have received fatisfaCtion from the toirefpond
ence with Denmark, if, instead of dwelling on
two detached passages copied into the firft Note
of Lord Carysfort, from the Note of Count
Bernftorff of the 31st of December, the court
of London had attended to the folcmn declara
tion, that “ it could never be for a moment im
agined that Denmark entertained any hostile
projeXs against Great-Britain, or such as were
inconsistent with the maintenance of a good un
derstanding between the two Powers; and that
the Court of Denmark congratulated itfelf on
having obtained an opportunity to contradict
such unfounded reports in the most positive
manner.'
'tendons, (he has so long advanced, and tflrich
have been- fcveral times renewed in the dotes
lof1 of Lord Carysfort, at the cxpence of|llthetnari
-Itime and commercial powers. The britifh
government has, in the present, more then in
any former war, assumed to itfelf the sovereign
ty of the lea, and has arbitrarily formed a.mari
time code, which it is extremely difficult to
reconcile with the true principles of the lav of
nations ; it exercises over friendly and neutral
powers a usurped jurifdi&ion, which it main
tains to be just, and endeavors to represent as
an indefeafible law fan&ioned by alljhe tribunals
of Europe.
Never have the sovereigns of England per
mitted their fabje&s to be made amenable to
this law in the numerous cases when the abuse
of power has trangreffed the limits of justice.—
The neutral powers have made the strongest
remonstrances and protestations ; but experience
has shewn that these ate generally without cf
feft., It is not therefore surprising, that after
so many and repeated injuries they should have
had tecourfe to a measure which may prevent
them in future, and with that view have enter
ed.into a well concerted alliance, which may
define their rights and place them in a proper
relation to the Belligerent Powers.
The maritime alliance, as it has been conso
lidated, will lead to this salutary objedl, and
the King makes no difficulty to declare to his
Britannic majefly, that he has found in it his
own principles, that he is intimately convinced
of its necessity & utility, and that he has form
ally acceded to the convention which was con
cluded between the Courts of Russia, Denmark
zed Sweden, on the 16th of December last;
hrs majefly is therefore among the number of
the contrasting powers, and as such is obliged
not only to take a direct part in all events
which may intcreft the affairs of the neutral
Rates, but is bound to support such vigorous
measures as the couife of circumstances may re
quire.
The note rs lord Carysfort refers to a fubje&
relative to which his majesty conceives he is
not obliged to answer, nor even has a right to
form an opinion ; disputes cxift between the
courts of London and Peterfburgh which in no
manner have connection with that which the
above mentioned minister has endeavoured to
unite them. But as much as the conduct of
Prussia has been hitherto guided by the most
unexceptionable impartiality, it will be equally
guided by a relped for the alliances which are
a proof of it. Stipulations which contain in
themselves nothing hostile, and which the se
curity of his fubjeds prefctibed to him, bind
him to have recourse to all the mean's which
providence has placed in his power.
As unpleafaht as the extremities are to which
England has proceeded, the King entertains no
doubt of the possibility of a Speedy return to
conciliatory and pacific dispositions ; and in
this refpea confides in the sentiments of juftiCc
which he has so often had the happiness to ex
perience on other occasions from his Britannic
majesty.
Only by the recal and entire taking off of the
Embargo can things be restored to their former
state ; and England must judge whether she
will consent to afford the neutral powers this
means of proceeding to the overtures which
they are ready to make.—But as long as those
measures shall continue, which were adopted
from hatred to a common principle, and against
an alliance no longer to be feared, the hostile
determination which must be the consequence,
will be the necessary result of the treaty, and
the undersigned has it in command to declare
to the minister of his Britannic majesty, that
the King, while he testifies his concern at
the circumstances that have occured, and which
he has never occasioned, will fulfil, in the mod
faered manner, the obligations imposed on him
by treaties.
The undersigned, while he executes this com
mand, has the honour to assure Lord Carysfort
ofhis high efteeni.
By the late mission from Bombay to
Schiras, the commercial relations be
tween the Company and Persia, have
been extended and strengthened, and
the King, in manifeftation of the close
and friendly connection thus promot
ed, has enjoined all his fubjefts, and
particularly Imatina Se,d Sultaun,
who had been fufpe&ed of favoring the
interests of France, under ferere penal
ties to abstain from all intrfeb^rfe com
mercial or political witli the enemies of
England.

that they must separate their interests from
those of England; and that otherwife,his majesty

choly consequences which it may have, as di
plomatically interfiling from its nature and
from its great extent. It must, in fa& be con

manifesto, it unfolds the Principles on which
that court has aded in this affair for some

who may read it with attention, that it is with
a view to the politics of Peterfburgh and Paris
that the Prussian government has determined
Upon this decisive measure.
