Powers intrusted to the French Negotiator, occasioned a silence of se-
veral do, s. Nor suss it until the tith Aegust that this Minister gave in
a new Deciatatien, by which the difficulties with respect to forms
were by no means removed, nor the Negociatlon by one step brought
nearer to its object. After the useless exchange of Notes upon every
preimitinry cptestion, the Will August arrived. The Prussian and
Itt,ssian Negociatms could nut pieced this term ; the Congress was at
end ; the arrangements which Austria hail to form was previously
deli rosined. by the proems of this Negoci,tion—by the actual con-
viction of the impos.ihility of peace—by the no longer doubtful point
of view in which his Majesty examined the gicat question in dispute—
by the principles and iutelitions of the Allies, %%herein the Emperor
recogniz-d his own—and finally, by the fuuner positive declaretions,
which left no room for misconception.

.that every means to avoid the war had been exhausted, dues the Em-
peror now find himself compelled to action. For three years has his
Majesty laboured with une% using pl.rseverance to effect, by mild and
conciliatory measures, real and durable peixe for Austtia and for Eu-
rope. All his endeavours have ; there is now no remedy, no
recourse to he bad hat to arms. The. Emperor takes them up without
any personal enimosity, from a paiidul necessity, from an irresitable
duty, upon eruunds hich any faithful citizen of his realm, which tho
world, which the imperor Nardeon himself, in a moment of tran-
quidity and reason, wilt acknowledge and jtistity The necessity of
this war is enemy( n iu thf.! he. it et %very .Austrian, of every Euro-
