VIENNA, Feb. 26.-The Court Gazette
contains the account of the death OF Count
Cobentze, Minister of State, &c. famous
in consequence of the treaties which he
has signed, and the important negotiations
with which he was charged. His indiffer
ent health had compelled him, since the
| month of December 1905, to retire from
public business. NJ de Cobentzel died of
! A dropsv, at the age OF 56 years. He was
born at Brussels, the 2lst. Nov. 1883, and
commenced in l772 his political career,
under the Minister Count de Persen. Two
years after he was named Minister Pleni
| potentiary and Extraordinary to the Court
of Denmark, and in 1777 To that of Pras-
sia. He was recalled at the epoch of the
war of the Bavarian Succession, and was
destined to negociatc the peace of Teschen,
but sickness prevented him. The same
! year, he was named Minister from Austria
TO Petersburg. On his reutrn to emma,
