AUS TRAN TREAT
49, Infi0rtance Of its Crss;oas.
In another part Of our paper. will le :,
the treaty between Austria and France. N.Y. ;'a
we were compelled TO defer to this d,y ' f.,
the overflow Of some more urgent i isA'
ton.
The general object Of tlsis treaty is II
range those new relations which the ocrnn.,:
n5of the mouths Of the Castaro have n,o fau'
ed between Austria and France. or ,,tS
between France and Turkey. The non'S
Of the Cattsro wss one oe the souhew, wy
warks Of the Turkish emfpe; and the na ss
session of them by tie French epnar, s
secures him camp OF cntrerchms,,
andef attack a position of controul and n
offence against that devoted Kingdom, yb4,
ever%it-may suit his purposes to attacs K
Hence the lerg effort of France to procure5
and Russia 10 defend it. Russia fayia, II
came the confederate Of France, ard its mar,
ner in the future spoil, surrendered ny tbes
yer and province of Cattaro as one Of IT,
means of.enablins her ally to hunt down ,:e
common game and Russia having suuer.
dered this very important position, it bec,n.
Austria 10 continue her secret
resistance.
The Elk Venetian States surrendered hde
second and third articles arc bare Of tie IN.
IDENTITIES to Austria in the treaty Of Ianc.
Vile. It is thus that France has gradually
recalled all that she then gave; the treaty Of
Presbsrg took Venice, and the treaty Of Fon.
tainbleau takes the Venetian States These
cessions are important in double point Of
view; in the frs, place, as rendering France
invincible mistress of the Adriatic !; in the Sc.
.cond, as evincing the complete subiectiono
the emperor Francis. Bonaparte tas noaly,
all are his slaves OF his enemies.
1T should mot here pass unobseryed, that
this extraordinary man is sparins no sfYrtsb
get all the sea coast and ports of Europe into
bis possession. His purpose is very mani.
fest. 1t is policy, the ultimate ndofwhrh
is to cherish France into naval power more
equal to contend against England. The sea
coast is naturally the cradle OF lhe seamcn
and the principal ports The most fertile repO;
STORIES for their supply. Ibe exchange Of
Flushing for East Friesland and liver, is an
additional poof and example of his anSsJ
for the maritime interests, of France.
Abe fourth article comedies on the part OF
Austria, that certain source Of future welE'
ness to the power which is hunli!iating enough
70 grant ia military road through the Aus
triaa dominion to Istria and Dslmaa'--
The greatest proof Of the completHe"
Of -prassian subiection was in the military
road granted through his domlnions to Inc
duke OF w arsaw. The emperor Frances
therefore, BY. this article, would appear
great .a.slaye as the king of Prussia hlm'eh
It is needless, we suppose, to add, that am
litsry road includes the right OF the power
whom 1t is granted, to send troops cannT1
&c. from che extremity of It to another ~
mend the matter, the number ct these "U'P'
is no, limited in the treaty ,cf l,ontaIiOeaDf
This same article, moreover, contahsP:~
positive Of the future .intertions OF the e.H
ror Napoleon; with respect to Turkey, Im'
military road is extended to lstna ana Da~.
