kitom THE HAMBURGH CORRESPOiIIDENIT
THE 161'H DECEMBER.
Besides the Authorities already mentioriea-Whe
were appointed to compose the Deputation to his
Majesty the Emperor, M. President
•BROZA attend-
ed on the part of the Chamber of Finance, and
spoke an Address in the FrenCh language ; Govan.,
nor KRZYANOWSKI, at the head of the Adinittiatras
afterSvards delivered an Oration in .the Latin
language. In the midst of them M. Scerkeckr aps
peared, and his 'Address was delivered in Latin Mad!
In the answer to every one of them his Majesty
assured them, that France never wished far the par. •
tition of Poland ; that his Majesty himself 140 d ne-
ver determined on such a partition, beCatise he
found it to be the interest of France and all Europe
that so respeetable a Nation should not be deprived
of its rank among the Northern States ; nay- inor,.,
he was resolved it should again appear in its former
power and glory.
Afterhis Majesty had communicated this aSaurs
ance, so grateful to the Poles, he declared how nel
cessary it was in the present state of things fOr the
Nation to become an armed Power. Exclusively
of what we transcribed in a former Number is's-kali/A
from the Imperial Answer to the Depniation; we
.must here subjoin the following rematkable pas-
sages : • -
" The Prince's, the Nobles; and the Inhabitants," -
said the Emperor, " must devote their thoughts,
and. unite their endeavours, to accomplish One ob
je& alone—that of the General Defence: Wonder.
Jul are the dispensations of Providence towards
them ; after having annihilated the power of Prus-
sia by vi&ories incredibly rapid, and by the force of
my arms, I find myself in-the midst of them ; and
I shall announce to them in Warsasif that index
pendence which from this moment shall .remain
inviolable. I will again restore the political ex-
istence of their Nation ; but as they will, upon
occasion, acquire great advantages froM these
changes, they must shew themselves worthy of my
resolution in their faVour. If the blood of the brave
old Poles still flow in their veins, every one of them
will. arm : be it then their aim to be free and to be a
Nation—or to die ! Their fate is now in their
hands ; I expe& they will Convidce rrte of their
bravery and their spirits Let me see the fruits of
their. zeal ; I- want not words or assurances. Let
me see the legions and cohorts of a .respe&able Army
fighting by the side of my soldiers !"'
