" MY LORDS AND GENTLEMEN,

" his MAJESTY commands us to inform you that

he continues to receive from his Allies, and gene-
rally from all Princes and States, the AiSUralleo of
their unabated desire to cultivate the most friendly
relations with his MAJESTY.
" Under the Mediation of His MAJESTY the
Preliminaries of a Treaty of Peace between his
Imperial Majesty the Emperor of Brazil, and the
Republic of the United Provinces of Rio de la
Plata, have been signed and ratified.

" hlis MAJESTY has concluded a Convention with
the King of Spain, for the final Settlement of the
Claims of British and Spanish Subjects preferred
under the Treaty signed at Madrid on the I 2th
March, 1523.

" His MAJESTY has directed a Copy of this Con-
vention to be laid before you, and MS MAJESTY
relics upon your assistance to enable him to execute

some of its Provisions.

" His MAJESTY laments that his Diplomatic rela-
tions with Portugal are still necessarily suspended.
" Deeply interested ii► the prosperity of the Portu-
guese Monarchy, His MAJESTY has entered into Ne-
gociations with the Head of the House of Bra-
ganza, in the hope of terminating a state of Affairs
which .is incompatible with the permanent tran-
quillity and welfare of Pot tugal.

" his MAJESTY commands us to assure you, that
he has laboured unremittingly to fulfill the stipula-
dons of the Treaty of the 6th July, 1827, and to
effect, in concert with his Allies, the pacification of
Greece.

" The Morea has been liberated from the presence
of the Egyptian and Turkish Forces.
" This important object has been accomplished
by the successful exertions of the Naval Forces of
His MAJESTY, and of his Allies, which led to a con-
vention with the Pacha of Egypt; and finally, by
the skilful disposition and exemplary conduct of the
French Army, acting by the command of His

Most Christian MAJESTY on the behalf of the
Alliance.

" The troops of his Most Christian MAJESTY'
having completed the task assigned to. them by the
Allies, have commenced their return to France.
" It is with great satisfaction that his MAJESTY
informs you, that during the whole of these opera-
tions the most cordial union has subsisted between
the forces of the three Powers by sea and land.
" His MAJESTY deplores the continuance of hosti-
lities between the Emperor of Russia, and the Ot-
toman Porte.

His Imperial Majesty, in the prosecution of
those hostilities, has considered it necessary to re-
sume the exercise of his belligerent rights in the
Mediterranean, and has established a blockade of the
Dardanelles.

" From the operation of this Blockade, those com-
mercial enterprises of his MAJESTY'S subjects have
been exempted, which were undertaken upon the
faith of his MAJESTY'S declaratioa to his Parliament
respecting the neutrality of the Mediterranean Sea.
" Although it has become indispensable for His
MAJESTY and the King of France to suspend the
co-operation of their farces with those of llis Im-
perial Majesty, in consequence of this resumption
of the exercise of His Belligerent Rights, the best
understanding prevails between the three Powers in
their endeavours to'accomplish the remaining objects
of the Treaty of London.
