Mae —The extrath from the .Vcuillerra of the II th of May.
and 19th a Jane, referred to ,n the above rewipt, relate to
she number of voops aisenitiled is the camps at Marengo sod
Cita :atee.

The Declarations which have been interchanged
between the Courts of Vienna.. Petersburgh and Paris,
relative to dr: renew.il of the Negotia:ions for Peace,
proposed by the former Court, have been printed and
distributed among the Members of the Diet. They
consist of the following papers :
First, the Declaration of the Court of Vienna,
transmitted an the sth of August to Paris, and on
the 7th, to Petersburgh, containing the over of a me-
dia'ion for Peace.

The second is a Note of M. de Talleyrand, dated
Cot I nth of August, in answer to the above, in which
the difficulties that woul.l attend such a Mediation,
are enumerated. It is added, that it is to be hoped,
that Austria will desist from her preparations; that,
ttt latter Power had, at that time, MOM men in
halt ; and France, only 50,000 ; that if Austria
would declare it to b. list determination to remai❑
neutral, Peace would be the wish of England.
This is followed by a second Note of M. de Talley-
rand, delivered on the I oith of August, to the Aus-
trian Ambassador, Count Coisentzel. in this Note,
a categorical explanation is demanded of the motives
of Austria, for such great preparations. If Austria
be sincerely desirous of peace, says the writer, let the
twenty-one regiments which have been sent to Tyrol
he recalled ; let the works at the different fortifica-
tions be stopped ; let the number of troops in 6:yria
and Carinthia be diminis!!fd; and let Austria ac-
quaint England, that it is firer desire to remain per-
tesgly neutral.
The third Paper is a Declaration dispatched by
the Russian Ambassador, Count Rasummisky, on
