This •cbmroutneJtion was made in a letter which I
',enclose (marked A), together, with a copy of- my
answer' (marked B)
• On
,the 23d, being anxious that th.. 4 Negotiation:.
should proceed as soon as posibic, I Wok the op-,
portunity of M. D Clmpagny's stichng to i.mgnire
after my healtii, to,urge turn, -in writing; to renew
the conierencc-; •vitliont farther loss of time. Your
Lordship Will rind a t:-ppy'.Of my letter (marked

.on, the 2:4 t h received from M. Talleyrand rn
answer to thr.t demand I had made !Or an explatin,
_lion oil the subject passports, in my letter of the
22d. This communication -(Marked E) I think it
proper also to transmit to your Lordship. •
On tho'2sth, tit Eine o!olock; M. De Champagny
Called on me, as"had been previously' agreed, for the
purpose of renewing the con!erenees.
After the usual interchange Of citilitieg, be prb,
.s:eeded to say; that, to score Peace, the EnterOr
had deterniiifed to, mace great sacrifices_
Ist, That ,Han Over, with its dependenCies, should
. be restored to his--Majesty. •
2d, That the possession of Malta slioUrd be con-
firmed le Great Britain.

3d,. .That Prtince would int@rfere with Holland to
confirm to his Majesty. the absolute possession of the
.Cape. •
4th, That the Emperor would confirm to Ma-
jest.), the possesSion of Pondicherry,-Chandernagore;
'Mabee, and the` other dependent countries. •
t , That as Tobago wti.originally settled by the
English, it was meant also to give that Island to the •
Crown of Great Britain. - -

IA? all this he added, that what he had now said
proceeded. on the Supposition,- that Sicily' was to be
ceded, and that the FVench.Government propose,d
that his Sicilian MajeSty.shOuld haVe'as an indoosni-
ty, not 'only. the 'Balearic-Islands, but should" :also
receive an indemnity franCthe• Court of 'Spain, to
enable him to, support his dignity.
I .here interrupted expressing'my -surprise,
after the full eKplanation Fhad with M. Talleyrand
on that very point, that the possibilityofour
up Sicily Should"be mentioned again ; that the gua-
ranteeof it to,the King of the• Two Sicilies was, as
'much an obje& :With 'England as. M. Talleyr-and.
'knew it to be \kith Russia ; and that I was happy to
take that opportdn4 of stating to him 'fairly, that I
fAt myself ,ound 6 consider Cokobtaining for Russia
the atrangernenf Which-, She\ desired,- ";ts• an :object:
more interesting if poisible to England :than.. those:
points which "might he considered as peculiarly con
reefed with her own interests. .

He informed me, that there was no clause in his-,
instructions empowering him to hear me on the pert
of Russia ; but that he had even seen NI. Talleyrand's
Note to me, 'and being satisfied that this was an
accidental omission, which would be forthwith reme-
died; he had no obje&ion to proceed, as if srh a
clause bad been inserted.

It was agreed that I should go to him to-clay at
two o'clock, to renew the conference.
