" The onderfigned Minifter Plenipotentiary of
his Britannic Maki!y finds himlelf under the hecellity
of reminding his Excellency the Minifter fin. Foreign
Affairs,
" O. That on the morning of the Lath a note
(Ivied by the undcrfigncd and Lord Yarmouth, nt
the date of the I tth, was tranfmitted to his Erect
lency General Clarke, in which the perfuns under-
figned declared—' that the Britilh Government, far
from preftiming to era& from the French Govern
ment Inch rellitutions as it might think proper, with
out being under an obligation to make any retlitution
to France, was never aauated by any other wills than
to treat with the French Government upon the bails
propofed by France, fuch as it was declared in Lord
Lauderdale's note, viz. to treat generally upon the
balls the wi peAktis. which was firialy to be adhered
tnexcept in thecafe of Hanover, which it waspropofed
Ihould be folly reflored to his Britannic Majefty.—
That, were it even poflible to be miftaken as to the
eonfequences neceffarily fliwing from this prit.ciple,
the perfonal difcuflions which took place on the 9th
intl. between the French Plenipotentiaries and the
Underfigned, did not leave a dnubt remaining that
the propofition fo made was perfealy undernond by
thefe Plenipotentiaries, sad that in coafequenee the
Underfigned had only to repeat, that conformable
to the inliruaions of their Government, they could
not do otherwife than infift upon the previons acknow.
ledgmcnt of this principle—and that it wes upon
this condition only othat they would be allowed to
continue the negotiation.'
4, ad. That on the 14th infiant, the Underfigned, 11
conjointly with Lord Yarmouth, had the honour to
inform his Excellency the Minifter for Foreign Af-
fairs, in writing, that the filence of their Excellen-
cies. the French Plenipotentiaries, on the fulled of
the note of the t ith inflant, gave room for fuppollng,
that at the prefent moment they were not to capes%
an explanation, fuch as they required in their note of
the tith, which would authorize the Underfigned to
proceed with the negotiation, agreeably to their in-
firu 9ions.

" That from this tonfideration they felt an anzi
ety to put an end to the general ezpettation of hoth
nations, Peeing there was fa little appearance of its
being realized. That they were aware that an ap-
plication for pafrpurts, under fbch tircurnftances, to
enable them to return, might be furceptible of con-
Ilrutlions of a nature to defer that happy moment,
when the views of the French Government would be
drawn clofer to thole which it was fteppofed to en•
certain. That to present the poffibility of filch an
inconvenience, they felt it to he their duty to de-
clare, that any proceeding, the °Neil of which lhould
he to obilruEl the renewal of the negotiation, would
for that very reafon be contrary to the intentions,
although, for the reafons before mentioned, they
found themfelves obliged to put an end to their mil-
lion.' _ .

" The Underfigned, perceiving that no anfwer was
given to (bele communications, prefumed that this
delay might be the refult of a temper favourable to
the progrefs of the negotiation, and that he would at
IA be recompenfed by an anfwer according to his
manner of confidering it. When he perceived that
none was forthcoming, he fill purfited that line of
condo& which mutt have inconteflably evinced the
fincerity of the inclination he had exprelfed, to feceive
fuch explanations as fhould put it in his power to
renew the objeas of his miffion.
" lint if on the lath intl. the Und,rfirtned, in
conjunaion with Lord Yarmouth, law himfelf under
the nereflity to declare to his Excellency the Minifer
for Foreign Affairs, his apprehenfiuns (in conic-
qucnce of the filence of the French Plenipment;atiet)
that no anfwer would be given on this 103.0 ; and
moreover, if at the period when they found them-
felves obliged to declare the neceffity under which
they were, in obedience to the orders of their 60ve•
reign, to demand paffports, the Underligned has nn
occafion to remark to his Excellency the tslinifter (or
Foreign Affairs, how imptrion fly the rew delays
fince arifenjprefetibe it to the Undet 1vt.:4.1 to renew
immediately his denrunl.
" At the fame time, the Underrigned feels it ne.
ceffaty to add, that not being able to perfuade him•
felt, that in cafe the anfwer fhonld not be favourable,
his Excellency the Knitter for Foreign Affairs would
defer for In Lang a time the adoption of the only al.
ternative, the flea/pillion of paffporfs, he does put

wholly forego, even at this moment, the tspeilat;in
of the renewal of the prnpofition, fuch as the Mini-
Bets of his Britannic Majelly conceived to have been
made by the French Government, becaofe it is onlr
by there IMAM that the hopes of the two n.atuns CAII.
be realifecl.

r. Should Oleic hopes even he difappointed, the Un.
derfigned will never regret a delay which hai atf .rded
him an opportunity of proving. in the molt unerini•
vocal manner, the earned Mile by which his Witan.
'tic MAjetty has always been anitn.t:d for a perma•
nent and honeurable peace, of which his Majetly has
given the Iltongeil proofs in autho.iiing the Under.

" The filence confiantly preferred by their Excel-
lencies the French Plenipotentiaries, as well as by
his Excellency the Minitler of Foreign Affairs, after
the trlficial note of the Uoderfigned, and of Lord
Yarmouth, dated the it th of this month ; after the
letter addreffed to his Excellency the Minifter of To-
reign Affairs, dated the reth ; and after the official
note of the Uoderligned, dated the 2sel of the pre.
fent month, appear to announce clearly, that the
Ftench Government has abandoned every defire of
peace upon the balk which it had firft propofed it.,
felt; and which the Underfigned has uniformly de-
clared to he that tingle and only balls upon which
he was authorized to treat with this Government.

.. In this date of things, the Underfigned cannot
titer himfelf that any advantage can refute from hie
flay being continued at Parisi while, on the other
hand, a (either delay might Getaway give room to
the two nations, as well u all Europe, to fuppofe that
peace, the objed of their willies, is upon the hour of
being concluded, at the very moment when every
reafnnable hope upon this fubjea teems to be entirely
vattilhed. Strongly penetrated with this fentiment,
the Underfigned lees hirnfelf obliged to terminate his
mifflon, by making of his Excellency the Minifter of
Foreign Affairs, the formal demand of the needier,
paliports for his return to his Sovereign.
4. At the fame time, and in the fpitit of conciliation
which has coollantly charaderized all his proceed-
ings fince his arrival at Paris, the Underfiped, now
that he fees himfelf obliged by bis inftrudhons to de-
mand his ',airports, cannot refolve to render im.
poffible, on the part of the French Government, a
communication of fuCh a nature as would allow the
Under figned to continue the negotiation, although,
after the long faience of this Government, he cannot
career fo favourable an iffue.
It thall not, then, be until next Wednefday
morning, the, a,th of this month, that the °Muir-
ed will have the honour of waiting in perfon, on is
Excellency the Minider of Foreign Affairs, to atk
formally and definitively for the neceffery paffports
for hinifell and his idle. He only adds, that the
paffports which he (ball afk, mull be for his immediate
return, and not palfports to be ufed according to ar.
cumftances, as he has milked them on a former occa-
fion. (Signed) ss LINDIRDALII."
