" The onderfigned Charge d'Affaires of illa MA-
jeg y the Emperor of all the It ufli.o: in anfwer to the
NNote tranimitted to him by the Ml:lifter for Fortifin
Affairs, feels it inctunheat on him to confine himfelf
to the recapitulation of that condat which his an-
guft mailer has militantly held towards the Fiend'
Government, the plain nature off
which will
fufficiently dealt:m(lrace the nature of the recipro-
city which be has in his Rim experiesced from that
Power.
" From the moment that his Majeay offended the
throne, he laboured with all his care to renew the
good iotelligence which had formerly prevailed be-
tween Prance and Ruin*. His IMperial Majelly, in
anticipating the explanations which Male to produce
a folid and permanent underflanding between the
two countries, was happy in the perfualion, that he
would by that means effeCtually contribute to the ge-
neral pacification of Europe, the tranquillity of
which had been too long difturbed by the events
which occaftoned the war that was terminated by the
Treaty of Ltmerille. The readinefs which his Ma-
jelly ((sewed to tnake peace with the French Govern.
mept, at the time it was at v;ar with fever:Al other
Powers ; the renewal of the former Treaty of COT-
met ce, which was entirely to the advantage of France;
the good offices of Rullia in bringing about a re-
conciliation between the Republic and the Ottoman
Porte, arc all convincing proofs of the difpofition of
his Majefty, and of his willies to negle& nothing on
his part, which could tend to confltlidate that eon-
neiton which he hoped might eiift for ever-
O Since that period, when, in ctinfequence of the
misfortunes which Germany experienced in the corrife
of the war. and that many Members of the Get ma
nic Body were put under the neeeflity of fubmitting
to make facrifices, and that it became neceffary to
afcertain thofe facrifices, for the purport: of fettling ,
the indemnities that were to compentate for their
loges, the iiimperor contented to become a joiot Me-
diator with the French Government, in the cordial
hope. that the adt of mediation would feat the tran-
quillity of the Continent. 'the completion of the fa-
lutary work, allowed his Imperial Nlajefly to turn
his attention to the engagements which France vo-
luntatily entered into at the period of the conelnfion
of her Peace with garia. His Majeify, having fcru-
puloufly fulfilled thof, which lie entered into with
France, had a right It etpe ft that the French Govern-
ment would alto hate (hewn itle!l anxious to equal
his punauality, and to perintla its own obligations.
Kowever reatonabie this expeaation was, it has never
beets realifed ; and the Froieli Govonment, In far
from (hewing any dilly-ire kri to fitl6ll them, has taken
no little pains, if the made, figricd may ufe the expref-
lion, to retard their accomp!ithment.
Ir The King Sardinia, who has been wholly
deprived of hit it.iiretilons in Italy, by the union of
Piet:int-on to France, has hill to look for that indem-
nity which the Cabinet of the Thai:let ies hid talcum-
ly pledged ittelf to Roma to alloa- him, and which
the latter has continually demanefed.
The King of Naples, who was freed far a (port
time from the pretence of is French army in his king-
dom, beholds it again occupying his provinces, under
a pretext, the nature of which is not hnown to his
Imperial tiajefly ; and lie is confeepizoily placed out
of the line of Independent States. The reprefenta-
tions of RulTia, founded upon the fi lenin flipulation
of France, to confider the kimrdom of Naples as a
rCeStEI State, and to cr.j"y all the advantages of
rt;uttality, have been product.% e
farmirable to that Power.
r' The %slink of Italy hat been eh inged by the
innovations which the Government of tie Republic
:1.15 canted it to undergo fine,: the crincloti,in of the
petwe between Itriffia and Fial,ce, wi;h.ait at,v
concert with his Imperial Mitiehy ; sithoughi
it bed been agreed upon by the two (towers at that
period, that there thould be an undeainding between
them as to the political artangerntr 3 that were to

,rr Rilivies having been renewed between Franc:
and England, the integrity of the territory of the
Garman Empire was violated. natwithtlanding
France had very lately engaged to proteCt it in com-
mon with his Majclly the Empemt. The Cabinet

public proceedings by which it was guaranteed.

4. The poiiAlion of Cuxhaven, which under no
pretext could have been confidered as Englithproa
petty, was, notwithflanding, effeaed by the French
troop., and the H4ofe Towns have been compelled
to make forced loans to avoid a limiter fate. The re-
peated and urgent applications which the Emperor
has ade to the Prench Govel omens, to induce it to
fulfilm it. engagements with itgaia, and to put an end
to all apprehention, which the Neutral Powers, who
[ were nxious to remain in peace, may feel of being
involvaed in the war, have been attended with no

I

effect.
" To thofe numerous conies of diffatisfaeion, too-
neeed with the higher interells of Europe, the Go•
vernment of France has thought proper to add all
thofe which it could direfily offer to the Court of
Ruffia, by the offenfive ate:lions which it advanced
and circulated againtt Mininets honoured with the
confidence of his Impelial /staidly ,7 hy the &eyes
which the Ruffian Envoy was compelled to wood's at
the Thuilleries ; by the improper perlevermace which
the Cabinet of Sr. Cloud difplayed, in p' g+ in
foreign countries, pet-fans who were employed by the
Court of RufGa ; and laßly, by that unexampled pro-
ceeding which it took the liberty of committing.
when it compelled the Pope to deliver up a natural-
ized Ruffian, without paying any regard to the re-
prefeutations and claims of his loamial Majefly on.
that point.

.indepenclepee of the States of Europe,
which are within the ranch of France, his Moiety ex.
preffed his opinion as 'eche neceffity of tranquillifing
them cp that point ; and that the thoulff make lows
fatisfaition as the 'Empire bad a right to demand,
and adopt fuch meafures as might tend to calm the
uneafinefs and alarm of Europe. To this good of-
fice, the Vmpire received an anfwer, which left it no
hopes that the jell eapeflation of hi; Majefty would
be ful.illed ; which c ,e a wrong interpretation to
that frank, loyal, and difinterefled conduit, which
Majefty contlantly held refpefling the affairs of
Europe, and particolatly with regard to France, and
which made it but too clear, that there was a deter-
mined defign to thwart and irritate (water the Court
of Ruffia.
• " SO little attention and condefcenfion on the part
of the French Government, to the jun claims of his
Mafly, and a conduct Codecidedly oppofed to any
detlre of preferving at good underflanding between
die two States, (efficiently dent 'nth-aced to Ruffia,
that if, on the one hand, the French Government at- •
tached apparently but little value to it; relations with
her; and confequently furnithed her with a pofoive
reafen for no longer continuing them ; on the other.'
the had taken an invariable refolution to adopt for
her conduit, a line abfolutely contrary to the rinde
pies of joftice and the laws of nations, and which,
confequently, could not harmonize with the fend-
ments and principles profeffed by his blajeft y.
" The Emperor. neverthelefs, was willing to make
a anal effort with she French Government, and after
fo Many reafons of diffatittaftion, he was difpoled to
forget them whenever the ahisye mentioned engage,
ments (which were alto detailed in the Note at the
R of Augu ft) fhiauld be fullfilled ; which had been
folemnly en:cred ins° by the two Governments, and
fhould have long fince been executed. This laR effort
having been followed by an evafive and unlatisfaftost
anfwer, full of fallacious imputations. and which is
only rematkable' for the Change and unexpefted of-
fertion, That the Ruffian troops hid taken poll
teflon of the Republic of the Seven Viands, without
the concurrence of France while it is notorious,
that the Miniller for Foreign Affairs mutt bass
it in view, that this country, which had been fire eva-
cuated by the Ruffian troops, WAS occupied by thofe
drawn from the State of Naples, with the content of
the Porte, by the requelt of the inhabitants, and in
confequenee of a previous arrangement with France :
nothinz further remains for the tindertigoed, than to
&elate, that all correfpondence between Rut e and
France, beconitny, by there mean., perfectly efelefs,
melt now ceafe ; and that his Majoty the Emperot
only waits for intelligence of the depar ure of his
Charge d'Affaires from Paris, to fignify to the Frill&
Main', that it thoold grit his capital.
His hlajett y the Emperor having nothing to re.
preach himself with on this head (tor if it had de-
pended on him, the ties between the two nations, fat
from being ditTolved, would be drawn doter), fees
himfclf with regret compelled to flifpend all relations
with a Government which refutes tit fulfill its engage-
, meets, which will not conform to the reciprocal re-
' fped nations owe to each other, and in regard to
which hi. Majefiy, fine the renewal of the connexion
I between the two countries, has experienced increafing
monification. Still faithful to his principles, and
I Rinke'. to avoid the !bedding of human blood, the
Emperor will confine himfelf to that refolution which
I the refpeftive politico of the two countries admits.
Rutile and France can do without thofe relations,
the continuance of which is only to be warranted
by reafons of advantage and accommodation, and
without which it is better that they Mould have and
