Nibusly laid down by 'writing a Mode then rend

sonic at ViCllll4,and others at Berlin. But even
that proved the impossibility of following a shill-
lar method at' Prague. /sit only had no basis
been adopted, but no preliminarv'es planation had
taken place upon the ground work-of the ne:.4ocia-

the Russian and Prussian Plenipotentiaries, agree-
ing with the Plenipotentiary of thc Mediator,

Whatever efforts the French Plenipotentiaries
made in these official conferences, which they had
successively .with the Picnipotentiary of the:Me-
di:itor oil 'the 30th July, Ist and sth August, they
were not able.lto overcome his übStinacy. For-
getting, in thiseonjectore, what be owed at least
to circumstances, he did not make known the mo-

filled the duty of earnestly, and for the dignity of

standing the success which has just accompanied
his arms, the Emperor of the French appears to

judge proper to appoint, should assemble as soon
ac possible.at Prague, or any other place between
the residences of the Belligerent Powers. in the
conviction that his Majesty ‘villaneet similar dispo-
sitimis on the part of their Majesties the Emperor of
Russia and King of Prussia, I hasten to engage you,
Le Conite, to do alt in your po)ver to aceek•
rate the departure of the Plenipotentiaries for the
place of Congress. Ills Majesty appears to me
to partake of , the opinion of the Allies, wind to
..consider a general peace as the :aeons of really

to admit one from the Spanish Institgent!;,
,should it,be thhiight• possible to indline Enttland
to peace. His Majesty also seems equally disposed
•for at COntinental Peace., and consequently to

tisfaction, that the overtures customary in such
eases, maybe made in consequence at the'Freuch
advanced posts.
At the same tune I have the honour to inform
your Lyt.cellency, that I am going immediately to
