Elector of Hessa-C assel abouts Are they
waiting for Austria TO send them an usher
of the aulic court, or are they stopping tor
her 70 invade their States, and express her
surprise thar they complain? The Elec-
tors Of Bavaria, of Wurtemburg and OF Ba-
den have mad common cause with France:
their Houses viii receive the tyranny OF
the House of Austria; tyranny at every
instant, and which extends over all the
members of body which the Emperor OF
Germany ought 20 protect.
HISTORICAL EXPOSITION,
OF the motives which have determined the
conduct Of H. H. he Elscsor nalatine
of Bavaria.
Bavaria, exhausted by an unfortunate
war, was recovering in the midst OF psace.
Without betrayleg the least uneasiness,
she bcheld camps forming in the Austrian
Princes borderiagon her frontiers. Peace
appeared to her an object so desirable that
she never imagined the Continental pow
ers would seek TO disturb the rePose they
enjoyed.
thus then when clouds were perceived
TO rise from afar between France and Rus
STA, hops were entertained that the dis
sance of these two empires from each other
would prevent rupture, or that at least
German, would avoid taking part IN II.
Bavaria tco, was SO foreign to the differen-
ces which DIVIDE these two States, that il
was GiHiculs to conceive any power would
wish her TO take arms IN this quarrel a.
gainst France.
Bavaria had no complaint to bring for-
ward against the Emperor Napoleon. BY
his powerful influence, she had obtained
indemnities for losses she had experiences

La this state. OK things, intelligence was
received at Munich that the negotiations
between France, and Russia scarcely be-
gun, had broken of, and that at the same
time, Aastria was assembling numerous ar.
mics near Wells, aud dispatching troops to
the Tyrol.
Several detaehments on their way thither
crossed the Bavarian territory without any
previous nouce. On complaints being
made of this conduct, the Austrian envoy
at Munich save the most satisfactory ex.
plssations, promising that the officers who
headed these desachments should be pu-
pished. These promises were net ful6ll-
ed aad advicos were received that the
Austrian troops crossed the Bavarian ter.
ritory more frequently and in greater nuns
bars. This news gave birth to- coniec-
tares that the troops of The camps otsYelfs
intended srossing the Inn.
The eiector nevertheless still. hoped to
preserve a neutrality, which the exhaust

H. E. Fl. had already ordered his mi
mister TO make overtures to the court o.
Vienna on this head, when Prince SchWar-
zsnburgh arrived at Munich.
He brought letter from the emperor
Of Austria, by which his majesty requir-
ed the eleclor In the most precise terms,
TO Join the Imperial troops with his own.
This letter contained threats in case Of
refusal, but an assurance that if acceded
TO, no pre,ensions should be brought for
ward against Bavaria.
II was in this manner that the first o..

The intentions of the court Of Vienna

elrctor, aad In a second which he had
