In the famous note in the MOHieuT OF Sept. y, That

putting Venetia out Of her own hands,

NJ. Debrauz, while he agrees with the letter about
the Duchies does not accord the fOrtresses nor the
federal army; and if he likens the future relations
of Venetia toward the Italian Confederation and
Austria TO the rehtions of Luxembourg toward the
Germanic Confederation and Holland, is careful to
assert that Luxembourg belongs to IN fun property
