cooperate with the Car put down rebellion which
bid fair deprive her other share of Poland proper It's
added that the Cabinets of ST James, tue Tuerios aud

his regret that Prussia should depar. from thu principle
of nointervenon II is evident I'll Europe will feel
the influence of this great and sustained revolutionary
movement in Poland and that Napoleon will find scope
for his energies quite at home. This will leave us
to deal with our troubles without, amy undue meddling,
as we shall hear more Of Napoleons mediation,
save in pacific manner"
