"With fortitude the Austrian monarchy 4
arose from every storm which menaced it
during the preceding centuries. Its in
trinsic vigor is still endecayed. There
still exists ia the breast of those good and
loyal men for whose prosperity and tran.

spirit which is readyto make every sacri.

dependence, the natiosal homer and the
national prosperity.
From this spirit of patriotism on the

and tranquil confidence, every thing that

dnaninnity, and quick, firm and courage
Gus cooperation in every measure that
saail be ordered, to keep the rapid strides
OF the enemy from of our frontier, until
these numerous and powerful auxiliaries
can act, which my exalted ally, the empe-
ror OF Russia, and other powers, who
nave formerly and recently experienced the
insults OF the emperor of France, have
destined TO combat for the liberties of Eu,

nations. Success will not torsake Just
cause forever; and the unanimi,y of the
soVefelsOs, the proud manly courage, and

soon ooh,eratc the first disasters. Peace
