“ Although the emperor has not as yet

that the final fettlemcat of the affairs of
Lombardy Ihould jje deferred until the con.
chifton cf this war, when it would be in

time the court of Vienna, w.ho has noffdlionj

interefted’in the fttecefs of the negotiation

declared, on different occafians, how aux.
loas she was to have it in her power to con
tribute to accelerate their opening.
“ It refill ted from this djfpofition on her
part, that nothing could be more latisfadtory
to her than the intelligence of the pacii#

which it was hoped the million of M. No.

with equal alacrity, would realife.
“ It is therefore, with the dceyeft re

in these late change?, reasons of additional

to refuge the Cape, where there arc not

As foo« as potfeffion of that colony (hall

is in a formidable flats of defence, both natural
