IMPORTANT STATE PAPER.
PARIS, September 11*
M. Backer, Charge de'Affairs ofhislm
perial Majesty at Ratifoan, Has received
orders to pfefent to the Diet the following
Note ;
“ Under the present circumstances of as.
fair;-, when the movements of the House of
Austria menace the continent with a new
war, his Imperial Majesty the Emperor of
the French,-King of Italy, judges it expe
dient to make known, in a trank and solemn
declaration, the lentiments by which he it
animated, in order to enable kis cotempo
rancs and posterity to judge, with a true
knowledge of the case, in the event of a
war taking place, who has been the ag.
greflbr,
“I 1 i 8 with this view, that the under
fired Charge de'Affairs' of his Imperial
Majesty the Emperor of the French, to the
German Diet, hat received orders to pie
fest a faithfi) exposition of the principles
by which his Imperial Majesty the Empe
ror, hat been uniformly actuated in kis
conduct towards Austria.
Every thing which that power has
done contrary to the fpitk and letter of the
treaties, the Emperor has hitherto permit
ted. He has not complained of the imme
diate extension of territory on the right fide
of the Pave, against the acqutfition of Lin
den, against all the acquisitions made by
him in Suabia, and which, fubfequentiy to
the treaty •fLuncrille, have materially al
tsred the relative situation of the neighbour
ing flares in the interior of Germany ; a.
gainft these, in fine, which continued at
the present moment the fubjeft ct negociaticn
with different princes, to the per fed know
ledge of all Germany j he has not complain
ed ot the debt of Venice not having been
difeharged, coatrary to the fpir’t and-letter
of the treaties of Campo Formio, and of Lu
neville; he has not complained of the deni,
al ol jutico experienced at Vienna by his
fubjeds of Milan and Mantua, none of |
whom, notwitlrftanding the formal ftipula
tiens, have been paid their demands; nei
ther has he complained of the partiality with
which Austria hai recognifed the right,
which England ft* monftraufly arrogates to
herfclf; and when the neutrality of the Au
strian flag was so ofteo violated'to the inju
ry of Prance, he was not provoked by this
condud of the court of Vienna to make any
cotnplaiet, thus making a facriflcc to his
love of peace, in praferving filcnce epoa the
fubjed.
“ r Fhe Emperor has eracunted Switzer
land, rendered tranquil and happy by his
ad of insdiration; he has not kept in Italy
a greater number of troops than is indifpen
fibly necefiary to maintain the politic* which
they oecupy to the extremity ofthepeni*.
fula, in er-dcr to proted the commerce of the
Levant, and to insure himfelf an objed of
compensation, which njey determine Eng
land to evacuate Malta, and Russia to eva
cuate Corf* j he has not upon the Rhine,
and interior of his Empire, any more troops
than arc indifpcafibly ®eceffary to garrison
the different places,
“ Engaged entirely in the operations of
a war which he has not provoked, which he
fuftakis as much for the iatereft of Europe
as for his own, end in which hil principal
end it the re-c*iabli(hniipi of the equilibrium
of commerce and the equal right of all flags
upon the sea, he has united ail his forces in
the camps upon the borders of the ocean,
far diftatit from the Austrian frontiers ; he
has employed all the rcfourccs of his Em
pire to conftrud fleets, to form his marine,
to improve his ports ; a*d it is at the fame
mement when hcrepofes with entire eonfi
dence upon the execution of treaties which
have re-eftahlifhed the peace of the conti
nent, that Aeftria rises from her state of
repose, oiganifes her forces upon the war

deemed it his duty to invite the Caurt of
Vienna to retain to a proper sense of its

ardent love of peace could suggest hav* been
resorted to with avidity, and several times
renewed. lue Court ot Vienna has made
high profeffions of its refpedl for the treaties
which exist between it and France ; but its
military preparation* have developed her in
tentions, at the fame time that her declara
tions have become mpre pacific. Austria
has declared that flic has nohaftile intention
against the states of his Majesty the Em
peror of the Preach. Against whom, then
are her preparations directed ? Arc they a.

tude.
“ Parfuaded that the Princes and States
of the German Empire are penetrated with
the fame sentiments, the underfilled, in
the name of the Emperor of the French,
invites the Diet to untie with him in pref
fiag by every consideration of justice and
res for, the Emperor of Austria not to ex
pose for any longer penoi the present gene
ration to incalculable calamities, to spare
the bicVod of a multitude of men, doomed to
perilli the viftims of a war, the objeft of
which is foreign to Germany, which at the
moment of-ts breaking out is everv where
the fubjeft of enquiry and doubt, and whose
real motives cannot he avowed.
“ The alarms of the coutineat will not
be allayed, until the Emperor of Austria,
yielding to the just and periling reprefenta.
tioas of Germany, fliall cease his hostile
preparations, fhali not keep in Saubia and
in the Tyrol more troops than are neceflary
for garrisoning the places, and fliall r»p!ace
his army on the peace eftabliflnucut. Was
it not understood, fines the conventions
entered into in consequence of the treaty of
Lnnevilic, that the Auftnan armies could
not pass tht territories of Upper Austria,
without committing aciual hoftiliry ? \y«s
not Austria fepfible at that period, that
France being then engaged in a foreign war,
having withdrawn her troops from Subia,
and Having put a flop t<% the movements
which It could make by means of the corps
the had in Switzerland, it was not just to
oppose to such marks of confidence precau
tions truly aggrefiivc ? The circumstances
beiug the fame at present on the part of
France, why are meafure* of Austria so
different ? Why does she keep sixty battal
ions in the Tyrol and Suabia, whilst the
forces of France are collefted at a distance
for an expedition against England ?
if There exists no difference at this mo.
m«at biiweea the Swiss republic and the
German empire; no difference between
Bavaria and Austria; end, if any credit is
to be given to the declarations of tbs court
of' Vienna, there exists none between it and
franco. For what unknown objects then
has the court of Vienna affcmblcd so many
troops ?
“ It can have but one plausible objeft j
th*t is to keep France in a Prate of indeci.
fio«, to place her inaftate of inactivity &, in
word, to a r raft her progrtfs cn the eve ofa
dvcifive effort.
But this cbjcfl can only be attained fora
time. France has been deceived ; flic is
no longer so. She has been obliged to her
enterprises ; fho fijll deters them ; fne wait*
the «lf#cl of thafe tcmonftranccs ; flic waits
the cfleft of the repte&ntations of the
Germanic Diet. But when evary effort
fhali be fruitlefsly made to bnng Austria to
the adoption either of a fincerc peace, »r
of an undisguised and open Loftiliiy, his
majesty the emparor of the French will
fulfil all the duties imposed o» him by bis
power ; he will direst hia efforts to every

{t Should the Diet adopt the courfc which
the underfilled lias orders to point out to
it; should it fucoccd in representing to tho
view of tho emperor of Austria ike real
foliation in which thefc movements, made
perhaps without reflexion, ordered perhaps
without any hodiie intention, and ftlely
in fcfcnfequcnce cf foreign influence, have
placed the Continent j should it fucoccd in
persuading this sovereign, individually
humane and just, that he has ho enemies,
that his frontiers are Hot threatened, that
