SAXONY—DECLARATION.
" Frederic Augustus, by the Grace of Goo, King of Saxony,
Dike of Warsaw, Bc.c.
" We have just learnt with lively grief that our Kingdom of
Saxony is to be provisionally occupied by the troops of his Prus-
sian Majesty.
" Firmly resolved not to separate our fate from that of our
people —full of coullilence in the justice and magnanimity of the
Allied Monarchs, anU intending to enter into their alliance as
soon as the moons shall be in our power, we resolved after the
battle of laiesic, in that place to wait the conquerors, but the
Sovereigns retueed to listen to us. We were obliged to leave our
states and repair to Berlin. His Majesty the Emperor of Russia
nevertheless acquainted us that our removal from Saxony was
only rendeied imperative by military interests, and his Majesty
invited us at the time to place an entire trust in him. We re-
ceived also from their Majesties the Emperor of Austria and King
of Prussia, affectionate roofs of interest and sensibility; We
were permitted in consequence to abandon ourselves to the hope,
that is neon as military considerations should have ceased, we
should: be reinstated in our rights, and restored to our beloved
subjects. We were so much the more inclined to expect a speedy
and happy change in our situation, as we had acquainted the So-
vereigns of the Coalition with our sincere desire of co.operating
in the re-establishment of repose aad liberty, and since we had
bileWil in all the means which had been left in our power, our
true devotion for their persona, and to the cause which was the
object of their efforts. Peace ieing concluded with France, we
were infinitely afflicted to learn that our reiterated applications;
for a .peedy re-inetatement had not been listened to, that out
just hopes sere yet deceived, and that the decision on our Mel
terests, and on those of our people, had been adjourned to the '
Congress at Vienna. Far, however, from giving faith to the re-
ports spread concerning the fate of our states since the epoch of
the pt...ct.. of Paris, we ph.ce an entire coefidetme in the justice of I
the Allied Monarchs, although it is impossible for us to pene-
trate the motives of the steps which have been taken with rs
spect to us.
" The preservation and consolidation of legitimate dynasties
has been the grand object of the war which has just been so hap.
pity elided. The powers in coalition to this effect, have from
time to time declared in the most solemn manner, that far from
en:ertaining aoy prospects of aggrandszement, they had only in
view the re-establishment of the right and liberty of
Saxony, in particular received the most positive assurance
its its integrity should be maintained. This integrity essentially
comprises the preservation of the dynasty for which the nation'
has publicly shown its constant attachment, and the unanimous
wish of being re united to its Soverelgu.
" We have communicated to the principal powers of Europe
a frank and complete statement of the motives which directed
our political career in these latter times, and following the Un-
shaken trust which we repose in their Information and justice, we
set persuaded that they have not only acknowledged the purity
of our intentions, but the absolute necessity resulting from the
particular position of our states, and the sway of circumstances
which prevents us from taking part in the struggle for Germany.
The inviolability of our rights, and those of our house, has been
' acknowledged. Our speedy restoration should be the consequence.
" We should fail in our sacred duties to our Royal House and
to our people by remaining in silence as to the new measures pro-
jected against our States, at the moment when we have a right
to expect the restitution of them. The intention manifested by
the Royal Court of Prussia to occupy provisionally our States of
Saxony, obliges us to guard our well-founded rights from die
cons, quences of such a proceeding, and solemnly to protest against
the consequences which may be drawn from this measure.
" It is towards the Congress of Vienna, and in the face of all
Europe, that we perform this duty, signing these presents with
our Land, and reiterating at the same time publicly the declara-
tion which we haiie some time since commuittated to the Allied
Pow,. rs, that we will never consent to the cession of the State
inherited from cur ancestors, and we will accept no indemeity
or equivalent which shall be offered for them.
" teieen at fredericksteld,• the 4th Nov. 1814.
(Signed) " REM:RICK AUGUSTUS (L. S.)
VIENNA, NOVEMBER en.
(EXTRACT OF A PRIVATE LETTER.)
" We still continue to hope that the general nego.
ciations will have a happy issue. However, they be.
come more stormy, and seem to get more and more
embroiled. Ptussia has made extraordinary efforts
to c!et the Allies to abandon Saxony to her and she
had at first completely succeeded with the Emperor
of Russia. Prince Repnin was recalled from Dres•
den, and is daily expected : a Prussian Governoa
succeeded him. It was even asserted that in a pri.
vale audience Prince Metternich was received very
volly by the Emperor Alexander, because the for-
mer opposed this union ; but Prince Metternich has
remained firm, and he, as well as France and Bava-
ria, has formally protested against the union of Sax-
ony to Prussia. New obstacles have since arisen :—•
the old Kiag of Saxony, and the Duke of Weymar,
next heir of the Throne after the reigning branch,
have also protested against the occupation of the
states of their house by Prussia. It is even said that
.the wife of the Duke, who is the Emperor Alexan.
der's sister, has succeeded in changing the views of
her august brother. In consequence it is generally
believed here, that King Frederick will re-ascend his
Throne, and that Prussia will be compelled to re.'
nounce her projects. England, however, strongly in-
sists on the power of Prussia being greatly augmented.
" The question of Poland remains still equally
undecided. Russia, like Prussia, founds her claims
on the Convention of Kalisch : but the other powers,
and especially France, Aitstria and England, abso-
lutely refuse to see so important a possession as Po-
land pass into the hands of Russia, which would give
it so great a preponderance over the rest c 4 the Con-
tinent of Europe."—Journal des Dtbate.
The Court Gazette says, " the Emperor of Austria,
in consideration of the wish expressed by their Royal
Highnesses the Prince Regent of England and the
Duke of York, has appointed these two Princes Field-
Marshals of his armies."
The Austrian finances ate still much deranged.—
The extraordinary contributions which were imposed
for 1814 only, will be contited for 1815, notwith-
standing the cessation of hostilities. The extraordi-
nary expenses for which our Government must pro-
vide seem to render this measure necessary, though
it is by no means palatable.
The German Princes have presented a very argu-
mentative note to Princes Metternich and Hardee-
berg, complaining that Kings alone had voices in the
'Congress. They claim to be reckoned something, at
'least in regard to the constitution of Germany. They
declare that they wish only the welfare of their sub
jects; that they are ready to establish States-General,
.where there were none; and that they will take as
a model the Constitution of the States-General of
Nass.at.
It is asserted, that Prussia consents, by a separate
treaty, to cede all Poland to Russia: these two Powers
are agreed on the point, but Austria warmly opposes it.
The King of Sicily is expected here.
19.—Lieutenant-Grneral Baron Koller has
received orders to proceed to die Isle of Elba, lot
which he will speedily set out. He had yesterday a
very long conference with the Minister fur Foreign
Affairs, after which he paid a visit to Lord Castle-
reagh. The object of his mission is a mystery ; but
there are reasons to believe, that it relates to the pur
pose of definitivelT determining the fate of the Arch-
duchess Maria Louisa and her son. General Koller
was one of the Commissioners who accompanied BY
