A TREATY OF PEACE
SITWRIN FRANCE AND AUSTRIA

Was concluded it Prelburgb, the capita! of Hun-
gary (to which place the negotiations had been tratif.
ferred eight days before) an the 27th of laR month,
at four o'clock in the morning. Bocb is the princi
pal intelligence commeaicated in the French Jour
ash to the nth, Dotcb to the 13th inn. and in the
Hamburgh papers expelled by the RA two Mails
now doe, which have ago been received, though the
Mails have not yet arrived.
The Ardsdeke Caseate, had an interview with
BONAPARTI on the preceding day, at a hunting feat
about three leagues from Vienna, in which, whatever
difficulties or differences occurred in the negociations
at Prelburgh, if any, were moR probably reconciled
and terminated. It is Rated in loins of the accounts
contained in the Hamburgh papers, that the nego.
ciations were fuperintended by that Prince on the
part of his brother. This is very likely. The head
quarters of his army were not far from that city, and
poiGbly the feat of the negotiations might have been
removed there for his accommodation.

The recite terms of the Treaty have not yet been
publitned, but the Thirty"comb Bulletin enables us
to form very probable conjeSnres on Come of the
points. From this fingular document we learn, that
Peaks is to he annexed to the Kingdoms of lei*, and, as
has before been Rated, that the Eaton of Ba. II

Pruitt it to have her equivalent in another quarter. The
mutations and transfers of territory, which followed
the Treaty of Luneville, were infignificant, compar
ed with the mighty changes confequent upon the
Treaty of Prefburgh. Until the chief articles of the
Treaty (hall be publifhed—for the fecret conditions
will not, but in proportion as they (hall be carried in.
to execution—it would be an idle attempt to fpecu
late what the particulars fources are, from which
Aultria and Pruffia are to be indemnified. There
are fo many provinces fituated In conveniently for
both thefe powers, that we are at a lots to pies
which of them they are mon likely to obtain. Their
acquifitions will depend upon the will of the donor.
Neither the telegraphic difpatch, tranfmitted to
Paris, nor the intelligence from Vienna, afcertain
whether the Treaty figned at Prefburgh was prelimi
nary or definitive. We are inclined to believe that it
was final, as Vienna was to be evacuated in fourteen
days, and all the Auflrian States, except thole. %hid)

The Emperor of Rittl reached his Capital on the
tin of lift month l,his arrival was preceded by the
publication of a Bulletin, dated horn Hollitfch, frond
which it is evident that he was no party to the Art
Malice. and that he never entered into any verbal
convention of the nature of that mentioned in the 31R
French Bulletin. The Emperor of Aufiria had de.
termined to accept fuch conditions as the visor was
difpofed to grant him ; and the magnanim3us Soirt-
reign of the Ruffles had; confcquently, no alterna-
tive but to retire, or carry on the conteft by
himfelf. making the territories of his late Ally the
theatre of a fanguinary but unequal war.
Douai aaaa is determined to Phew hii power, as
well in pilling dein, as in crating Thrones. The
amplifiers of his Sicilian Majely is irrevocably find.
If he has not already abandoned Naples, his flay in it
will fcarcely be minified beyond the prefent month.
Whatever the difpolition of his fubjeds may be, he
has no military means of upholding hinatelf. He m*4
yield to the form. Bonaraava has ferorp, in his
revolutionary jargon. that "the qtieen of Naples has
ceded to reign," and though be has fpoken in antici-
pation, we have too much reafon to fuppofe that he
will keep his word.

Some arrangement, through the mediation of
Pruffie, it is toppled, has taken place refpeeiag
Hanover, which it is thought will prevent that
Ele&orate from being the theatre of hoftilities. The
French, who were about to pals the Yffel, and ac-
v/nee into the Bilboprick of Munger, have received
orders to halt, and the Englifh and Ruffians, wbofe
outpofls were Amon in view of thofe of the enemy,
were to fall back behind the Wefer —Papers in the
hands of Government fiate a circumflance not men-
tioned in thofe before us I namely, that in cnnfe-
qoence of the million of Harrowers to Naroxson,
permillion has been granted for the Brirefh troops to
' re-embark, nnmolelled, and that they have accord-
ingly proceeded to Bremen for that purpofe.
An article in the Dutch papers mentions, that the
benefit of this arrangement is not to be extended to
the Swedifis troops I but this is probably incorreet,
for Kerosene's objea kerns to be to fettle every
difpute on the Continent, that, onnsoletled, be may
profecnte his defigns againfi this country.
Such is the fubßance of the. intelligence in theft
papers, from which we have given large extras% in
the preceding columns. The Germanic Constitution
is now annihilated. The Continent is at the feet of our
inveterate enemy, and yet the mats of the rod peo-
ple of England teem as perfeAly fatisfied with the
feeble, inadequate means which have been provided
for their defence, as if no loch events had taken place.

Ste—The fecurity of the nation, and your own
et edit, at this moment, demand the bell adapted and
mill prompt meafures, for averting thole evils with
which we ate threatened from the prehnt unhappy
date of the Continent.
Entirely devoted to the interefl of my country,
and acquainted, I flatter mifelf, with meafures that
may be eminently ufeful in appropriating her means
of defence in the belt way calculated to oppofe her
enemy, lhould he fucceed in planting his armies on
her &ores, permit me to offer my ideas bow the force
at your command may be bet difpofed of.
The difpofition of the Regulars obvioully will be
to meet the enemy as foon as they land : the Militia,
except fuch as may be in the immediate neighbour-
hood of the regular force oppofed to the enemy,
which will be called upon to Itrengthen it, will form
an army of referve ; and the Volunteers and Levy
en blaffe will be co:lC:bred as the etfedive force of
the country.
The 6rll idea would naturally prefent the Regu-
lars as the force on which the count: y might rely for
their principal prnteaion. We have a tight to ex.
pea great things from them ; but it would betray
the greaten inexperience to depend either on them,
or the Militia, entirely for fupport. Auflria, at this
moment, prefents a miteralie example of the catife-
quence of relying on a regular army entirely for her'
defence. Had the peafantry been armed and Md.'
plined, fix filch battles as that of Ulm would not
bays compelled the &easeful difgrace of fobasiffioa
anitimapag peace of a conqueror: her time is loft.
. isamtparte knows the valise of patrietilin in au
armed peafantry ; and his fiat aid was to put it out
of the power of Auftria to benefit by it. Difcon.
tinue the Levy en Maffe: raid he.
The Militia and Regulars have the advantage of
difkipline, which I know how to appreciate: at is
great, but they are only hireling fuldiers ; and, gene-
rally (peaking, they are complied of men who have
lets inducement to defend their country than any
tithes clefs of men in it.
The Yeomanry and Peafantry are only inferior to
the Regulars and Militia, from want of difcipline—
give them this, and in every other refped they are
veiny fuperior ; for, from the circurnflance of our
being idandersi our regular troops want the oppor-
tunity of becoming fo thoroughly difciplinedarthofe
of France.

The two great preventatives to arming and dila-
plining the profanity of a country to cited, are.
want of time and money. The firit of the obfla-
ties. and the moil fetious, fortunately, in this cafe.
does not exit, and the fecond may be formounted.
The Volunteers have already made confiderable
proficiency in military teaks and. difcipline ,• and by
being immediately called upon for the moil alive
and regular duty their contlitution admits of, they
Might foon be made to Rend on equal footing with
tins Militia. The Levy en ,Maffe could be immediate.
ly called out, and their force applied in the following
way : The young to form attachments of Riflemen
to their refpettive Volunteer Corps; the middle-aged
to compofe a body of Pikemen. belonging alto to
their own cowponies of Rifle and Pikemen ; and the
aged and feeble jp form Civil Officers, Guides, Dro-
vers, Ste.
Examining the number of effeeive men each Parini
Contains, it will appear that not more than one-third
part of its effective force is at relent employed in any
(pares of military fervice. There remains, therefore.
the other two thuds to be applied in the way I pro-
pcie.—Were there men to meet, armed only by
the village blackfmitb, and drilled only by the vo•
lunteek ferjeant of the parilh, did no better way and
/ arms than this precast, this would be no inconfidera-
bte advantage. But the garee.keeper, of which there
is one in almoll every parilh, may be made a moil
tifefol man to his country, and more dearuaive to
the meaty. than almott any other member of it. You
do not polka in the army any men whole abilities to
lam& in the ufe of the rifle are equal to thole of
there men. Habituated by the duties of his hardy
calling to the cot:Rant mot &WA ufe of arms, he is,
beyond compare. (ardor in the certain and deadly
rife of them ; and this (kill he might' be eafily made
to communicate to others. He is alto as fuperior
in the knowledge of the Country about where he
lives to his neighbours, as he is in the ufe of arms.
It is, I apprehend, obvious to what purpofe this
valuable information of his may be applied. This
defimble object of preparing the Country for the
went, lbonld it happen, may be accompliffied with-
oot much expence or inconvenience ; their hours of
sneering, late in the day, and their principal Field
Days. Sunday. As to the es pence of regimentals,
that I would recommend to avoid, ankh they with
to clothe themlelves.
Time, fortunately, ;saLiven. for the accoosplifhment
of this great and neceffary objet : but that neglected
now, will never happen again, and we may deplore
our error too late.
With you, Sir, perhaps no apology will be need-
eary for intruding my thoughts on this lubjee.
As an Englilhman determined to defend my Coon.
try to the loft, I confider it no lets my duty than my
right to prefent any thing I conceive may be condu-
cive to her welfare to the man who has the applica-
tion of her refources. I am, Sir,
Your obedient fervant, C. a.
