GPIXRALs.
I have to acknowledge the receipt of the intelligence
of-the-armistice which was signed on. the 21st of this
month, and although I implicitly confide in your Ex-
aellency'S assurances, I cannot pass over in silence the
prospect ofia solid' and permanent peace, which, from
the tenor of your public letter to the Governor of
Riga, your excellency appears to believe will be the
result of that measure.
The reciprocal engagements hetween the Courts of
London and St. Petersburgh, the known principles
and the firmness of his Imperial Majesty, the verbal
assurances of the Emperor which I have justtransmit-
ted to the King my master, were so many pledges,
that it is not now a question (according to public ru-
mour) to negotiate for a separate peace, but for a ge-
neral one ; and whatever doubts I may have enter-
tained on this subject, your excellency's letter to Ge-
neral Buxhovden has completely done away. The
just and enlightened manner inwhich your excellency
views the situation of Europe, convinces me that you
could not' expect a peace would be either firm or last-
ing, which did not include every power at war, and
which was not founded upon an equitable basis. My
. Court will be ready to concur in negociations so formed, ,
since it made war for the sole purpose of obtaining a
secure and permanent peace. But your excellency
will nevertheless permit me to express all the regret I
feel, at being still unable to make known to my Go-
vernment the basis, upon which it is proposed to
ground negociations. At the moment when negoci-
ation is carrying on with the enemy, it is most essen-
tial that unlimited confidence should subsist between
the allied powers. Upon this principle it is that the
Court of London has ever acted, and it would be su-
perfluous to recal to your excellency the eagerness,
testified by the British Ministry last year to commu-
nicate to the Russian Ambassador the whole of thei
Wrrespondence with the French Government. I wait
with impatience your excellency's summons to repair
to his Majesty. Nothing can afford me greater plea-
sure than to repeat in person the assurances of the
• esteem and high consideration with which I have the
honour to be, your excellency's, &c. (Signed)
