LOUIS XVIII. 'ME KING OF PRUSSIA, AND BONA-
PARTL

Friday, the 25th of February, tgoj, the King was
informed by M. the Abbe Edgeworth, that M. the
Prefident de Meyer. who arrived from Berlin, was
cringed with a miffion to him upon the part of his
Majelly the King of Pruffia. The objeti of this mil
lion was to obtain the renunciation, full and entire,
of the whole houfe of Bourbon to the throne of
France, as alto to all the dominions which they bad
panelled. As the price of this facrifice, Bo
would fecure to them indemnities. and even a bril-
liant Rate of life—(oujosee).
Saturday morning, the 26th. the King received M.
the Prrlident de Meyer. After the affurances of ten-
der interell, which his Proltan Mijefty felt 'for M.
the Count de Lists and his faMily. M. the Prefident
explained the fubjeft of his million. "He obferved
that Bo AAAAAA a had not overturned the throne of
France; that he had had no part in the horrors of
the revolution; that he had put an end to it; he ex-
patiated upon the good be had done for France, and
even for all Europe.
•• He raid, that the revolution was confolidated,
more by fattions within, than by war without. All
reaetion was impolfible, becaufe a want of repofe is
wanted every where ; every where are felt intereßs
created by it, and incompatible with the return to the
ancient order of things: religion has confecrated the
new; the Sovereigns of Europe have acknoWledged
it; a political fyßem, common to all nations, is dia.
blifhed upon this cafe, and the Kings will maintain it
from confcience, from duty, from intereft.
" The confequence was, that the Houk of Boat-
bon remained without fupport, and without means of
exillence for the future ; beeaufe the favours which
they have received from Raffia may at leaft fail the
children and fuccelTors of the Count de Li ILI ; that
in a few years BONA AAAAA would no longer find an
advantage to let a value upon refignation ; that it
would be.more wife in take advantage of the prefent
moment, teeing their rights were rot yet profcribed,

the &wagons would be a brilliant Rate (fort). Se-
curely, becaafe Pruffia. Raffia. and the otner Powers
of Europe would guarantee the treaty. Honourably,
becatik that family would confolidate the repofe of
France, and of all Europe, by its facrifices.
" If the molt touching ability and interea could
have prevailed over the honour, over the duty, over
the fentiment‘, which he prcferved for his country,
the King would have been fbaken. Without flop-
ping to ditinfs the motives which were prefented to
him; and which eßablifbed his rights far from weak-
ening them, as fuck a Rep revived his hopes, far
from deßroying them ; his Majefty anfwers
