RICHMOND. FRIDAY MORNING, OCTOBER ST. 1906

with (; and at length, after great number of
conferences, peace was fgned the Goth July ;
when the treaty is known.all Europe will Judge
that this peace was equally honorable for both
powers.
Hoftities were Immediately to ceafe, and
they ceafed on the part of France. The ratii-
cations were to be exchanged the 5th Auguft,
and no doubt could arile of this exchange, for
the negotiators were long lince known to pof-
fefs the confidence of their fovereigns they
had treated according to precife inftructions |:
they had in fine acted by virtue of complete
and Precife powers, and not as it happens in
negotiations, wherein the negotiators are igno-
rant whether they have fufficient authorization,
with the claufe of Ga6 lpe rati.
However, Mr.. Ruffin, chancellor of the
French coniilhp in Rufiia, arrived on Wed
neiday laft from Petersburg, and brings news
that IN confequence of change of minifters, by
reaton of the new principles of the Ruflian go
vernment, and by the extraordinary afcendancy
which the Englfll party centrived to take in
that Circumstance over the renewed cabinet,
the treaty of the Goth July has not been ratif-
ed.
Thus hoftilities mutt recommence between
France and Ruiiia. The men who prelide over
the difcord of nations, and who make fport of
proloRging or multiplying the fatal period of
wars and of the overturning of Rates, are very
fenieleis. The vicors of Ulm and AuRerlitz
are fill attended under their nandards and
Rear the held of their trumphs. Stronger i'm
numbers and more formidable than ever by
that organization which has never been euualled
and will be for ever unrivaed, they wait with
an impatient hope the impulfon of that great
mind which animates them: MsaI apifat NC
lem, &c.
Nothing however can leave MS reafon to pre-
De al of tb. IT..
deainy of States is the fecret of Providence.
Their happinefs and glory proceed from the
wiidom of governments.
AT all events, the emperor, like the French
people, is prepared for every event, and the ar
mics of II. M. will be found wherever il may be
neceitary for them to fight, in order to iniure
rep ole and durable and glorious peace.
