accelerate so desirable a measure. It is evident
that Peace was sincerely tlei're.d by the British (1)-
vernment, and that it 'adopted a' better plan' for
promoting that objet than if we had at once
given such an answer to the late
.overtures from
France as might have disposed her to. Think that
we were ,ready to open an immediate Negotia-
tion. If we had so done; Box.trArerr might ha've
thought ,that we were as little able to nrgotiate
single-handed against France, as he proudly declared
that, We were incapable of contending against her
4in/21e-handed. But by employing the friendly a-
' fprts ofso powerful a State as and giving the
French Ruler an opportunity of knowing that the
Russian Emperor sympathized in all our sentiments'
and principles, and was disposed to co-operate in sup i.
-
porting measures calculated to further the important
objeas in vidw, BONAPARTE must of course have had
less reason to rely on-the effeas of any menace, gni-
.
flee, and crooked-policy, with which he might other-
wise have been inclined to perplex and retard the
Negotiation.' We have therefore done all that cciuld
be required of us to manifest our sincere desire op
Peace, by adopting the most dignified and politic
system that could be devised for restoring ani ef-
feacally securing its blessings. No other plan could
have been carried into execution with an equal proba-
bility ofsuccess, and the whole of the failure must be
imputed entirely to the ambition and aggressions of
the French Ruler—aggressions cornmitted at the
very moment when he professed to be ready to treat
for Peace, as if he intended, by this exposure of his
insincerity, and by his daring encroachmentl, to
make a mockery of all other Powers who were
likely to have taken any part in the Negotiation.

The conduct of Russia is intitled to therespeet and
admiration of all Europe, as well fur the important
objet which it had in view, as for the magnanimity
with which it overcame every obstacle arising from
becoming pride and laudable feelings of resent-
ment that might have rendered it unwilling to
subje& itself to fresh •insults by entering • into
new Treaties with the arrogant Ruler of France.--
It is now impossible for that Ruler tCip ke2p on
the mask ; he has fully developed al his ambiti, n
and all his craft, and his unhappy subjeas, as well
as all the world beside, mult see' that he merely'
dissembles when he talks of Peace, and that the
gratification of his •
inorlinate ambition iS his' sole

We sloull hlpe that the Court of Berlin must"
at ,last open its eye 3, 4111 spa longer be. deceived by
the,subtkty or awed by the force of the Fret- ch
Usurper, since it is evident that no tie's can 'bind
him; and that the only measure of his' conduit'
is, the ,extent of his power, and indeed it
strongly reported that though Baron Novoswr-
zorF had presented the spirited Memorial, and Ica
preparing to leave Berlin, he has been induced to
delay his departure at the earnest_solicitation of the
French Minister at that placer seconded by the in-
tercession of the Peussian Minister, till the Emperor
of Bussi.t is once more consulted as to thie measures
which shall be pUrsued in the prevent 'critical posture
