IMPERIAL RESCRTPT.

This State raper, received at Ratillon on the
17th by the Miniflers of Bohemia and Auflria,
was Cott alfo to Collin STADION at Berlili, Count
de METTLANIC'H at Drefden, Count SCHLICK at
Aruhaff.tmborgs Nod Baron de BIJAI ta Munich.
It is in Pihflance as follows :

" Flis Majelly never ceared to employ himfelf
with the means of terminating the important affair
of Peace, in a manner agreeable to the Germanic i
Conftitution ; but the moll dittinguithed of the
I parties intereled adclreffed themielves in the
I mean time to Itutlia and France, and folicited the
iademnities they were defirous of obtaining. The
refult of eat.fe tleps was, that Ras propfed to
open ptepar.aory negotiations at Paris. His
vt ae.tt. Mx.; ssrv, in the month of February.
gave fall powers, and the neceffary intirti:nous to
' his Mr...tilers, but foon after a convention between
France and P. oat was cor.cluded without his par-
tieipatioa, anti chef: two powers only tefliCed to i
his Majefly a .I.:tlte that he would direa the dif-
euflion and tbe art tngement o: the affair
of the indemnities, according to On: foritis
fcribed by the Coniiitution. For this purpot.e. ilia
Majetty refolved to convoke at Ratilhon, as loon as
poflible, the deputation already appointed by 11
rePiitnion of the Diet; lie alfo ordered Ilarcn de
FIL,GEL, whom he had nominated his Commif-
firmer to that deputatita:, to repair to that city, 1
and Baron tie SCH AtIT be Sllb-dClet;ate of 80-1
:'YElli.t. In a word, his IMPERIAL. MAjESTY de.:
Glares, that lie is difpofed to agree to the leg;.l
refttlt of the operations of the Deputation. He
has informed his Plenipotentiaries that his inten7
tion by this is to p,ive a manifea proof of his de-
fire to Ice the affair in queltion terminated as
Ipeedily as poflible, and to the fatisfadion of all
the parties, who are to be indemnified. Hi; Flo- ,
jeil y hopes, on his navt, that the States interefied
will abltain from all unconflitutional meaftnes and
violent means, and that to proceed to execution I
of the p'. to to be deereed with the content of
France end Ruffia, they will wait for the legall
rel alt c f the labours of the Deputation. In the
contrary cafe, the States who have moderate in-
tentions will find themfelves under the neceffity of
having recourfe alfo to anticipated meafures, the
rebut of which will infallibly he confttfion."
It is obfet ved alfo in the tea of this Refeeiot,

:hates the indemnitiee corning to the Grand Duke
f TUSCANY, and pcmnifes on his part every at-
tention in his power.

was then flying towards Hindoflan, with not above
7or 8000 followers. It was fupp,:f;.Ll his plan
was to propoce a junction to LUCKWA DADA; but
