" I have the honour to inform your ExCneug,
that the arrangements relative to Spandan are ah,
ready put in' execution.
According to the iiew dispcsitionsi, the gar-4
rison of Spandau ought to be anginented, 'a Ge-
neral of Brigade•shQuld• be establisb4.4bete,
the magazines will serve, to contain the corn
and other arti6les appertaining to the French
Army.
.1 have this 'morning mentioned it to, the Ba.-5
von de Hardenberg, in a conversation that 1 hail
,with him. He answered me, that every thing
would be done as the Emperor desired. He
ways •assures me, that the only pain the King
feels, is, lest there should remain any siispiek,hs
or donbts• in the Emperor's mindi ut hiS interi-
tions,,.and of his disposition to make every possi4
Me effort for seconding the views of liis';iuperial
and Royal Majesty. -
" I answered him, that Le ought tmot to attri-
bute to suspicion, those. measures at precaution-,
which are nevertheless as much for the mtere,t of
Pritsja as that of France "that, although his Ma-
jesty the Emperor has never marched tut from
victory to victory, he had never omitted taking -
the most in;pute precautioris, men at two'ortoree
hundred leagues in his rear.; that nothing' ap-
peared indifferent to him.; and that he is,"perti.,p,:s
the.only m'an to whoau it has been given to o';' •
form such great actions, without targetting the
least detail of the very smallest nnut4rs.
" M. de ilardeiderg then enteit,a into Pt; way
of thinking ; and ;Is he is master Of his suil*t,
and is.no man of forms, he perceive.l g iit
thicalliance, fiat the great'end of sav

there should reinain any mistrust ~a t.,.

LETTER VT.CYM COUI4T DE SAINT MAIIS,AN.

" Berlin, April 29, 1a le'.

'' Yesterday evening, I was at the house of the
of Reggio, with Count de Hardeitherg, anti
M. nithonne, The discourse was about the
(litters given concerning Spandau ; and M. The
Duke of Reggio convinced the Baron de Harden:
-
berg, that these measures otizht in no wise, tt)
i.:*.to,e King any inquiet nde, nor can,,e Mitt) v)
dun ItulYeri:ll- and lloyal..Maiesty en
t.ortilirted any mistrust ; th3t it was such preean-
dot's 03 thy. Empgruv takes ways and Cl'Cry
whert, and that they m. tart; commanded by eirciiht-
tanceS. Minister'ycrlectly ent6reci into that
sense of the Marshal, and aisured him that they
were disposed to do every thing for theLbtaicfit of
the cinumon cause; not only what had been sties
plated, but likewise everything that', might be
useful; and that beSides, the :,!ftir of Spandau
wits conformable to the strict tc.;,,s of the tut:any, ;
because neither Spandawnor ?Wan had been ex-
cepted, like CAerg, Graudcntz, and.Pntsdam,
.byThe stipulation, which says that the whale
country between the Elbe, the Oder, the Vistula,
and the Nieitien, might be occupied by the French
army.
" I render an account of these exprastoris of ,
the Chancellor to your Excellency, that you may
,the better be enabled to judge. of the manner
in which this Minister regards the 'position of
Pritssia..

(Signed) " Connt de ST; MARSAN."

(2.) Prussia was in full negociittion with the
enemy when she made the proposal of acting as
.a mediator. It was contained in a note addres-
sed to Count St. Alarm, at Breslau, on the I.llb

of this document, 'and give the exact expreesions•
of the Chancellor of State, to forrit an opinion if

proposition;
