Such arc the IN sfortunes of the situa-.
| ton IN which unwise Councils have placed
| yonr roajesty. Your subjects are almost
every where i'll opposition or in arms against
each other, and almost every where the
| partisans of your honse are the smallest
| number. The French humiliated and dis
contented, are ready t. proceed to the last
extremity. Your Majesly has no longer c
means OF opposing the pretensiops of for
eigners. They have presented treatv
| which would consuuniate & c run of the
nation, and which would cover it W tn eter-
nal shame. We have not th4ug it TO-
came Us 10 give an assent which would have
rendered rs cupablr towards that nation.
which my b = unlila;cd, but cannot be
bsat down Since your Majesty has conf
dcd IN horty to cur hands, we have con-
stantlY been without the powcr of doing
gccd, without the power of prcven.iog evil.
Our opinions have no iafluc C.. The CO.
b Is OF your court have prevailed. we
have to OBEY, through respect 10 YOUR ma
jesty, and to sanction by our gnatnre, acis
winch we dsspproye. We would have s,-
crifi5ed cur lives to save your majesty and
the country, but those who are near your
majesty know that the revolution which
they would excite, would surround the YES.
SCI of the state with new psr.is; that thew
would give to factions 20 whom you are en-
posed, the means of seeking resting place
beyOndthe legitimate authority of YOUR ma
jesty-that they would raise pretenslers TO
the throne where you are seated. 1t is not
by means Of . fiction that your majesty
ought 10 reign, but by q consultation. bv
royal prerogatiye, recognized and esiab-
iished. Let that faction trembe and s,,s-
pend their efforts to substitute passion in
their place. Their agents would be the
first victims. and they would cause the
greatest nistortunes to your majesty.
"We are therefore convinced that we
can no longer contribute to the welfare Of
your subjects, that we cannot govern the.
stale in the spirit of the councils which d.
rect your m jesty. Your wisdom wal
DOUBTLESS do more than our zsal and our ef
forts to remedy the evils which af1;ct the
state we therefore venture to supplcate
you to believe in the regrets that we eype-
rience, in not being able any longer to con-
tribute to serve you, and in the wish, thae
we have formed for the prosperity of vouz.
House, and for the safety of the cc,I try.''

not exactly known who has hid the merit
OF working this miracle upon the King. It
