Sir Joseph Yorke prefonted to the States Central a Memorial con cerning the five papers found among# those of Mr. Lau rels, late President of the Congress. It is to the follo-v ----ing purport : “ High and Mighty. Lordly THE” King my mailer has, during the whole coutfe of h's reign, mamfefted the ftmnge-ft desire of mainfoinine .the union that has fobufted between him and this Rfcpub -1 * unjoß on the lirni basis of rerfpfocal in re. ATpr tnd as Tt ever was knoyfe to contribute greatly to the advantage of both nations, thfeir natural enemy has set to. woxlc all the engines of politicks to destroy it.” For fome time such attempts liave mcr with but too great a success be,ng countenanced by faftion that wiftes to rule over the wuoie RcpuMick, and is ever ready to focrifice the pubhek good to its own private vdews. His Majesty fees w.th no lcfs furpriec than concern, the little regard tka! has been hitherto paid to his feiterated claim of fofe assist. ance ftipul.itcd by treaties, and to the remonstrances made by his Ambassador on the daily infradlions of the nioft so- — , Th King’s moderation has induced his MtfeMn'Joo* " f y< ? r Mightineft-s a> the wak ing of a predominant cabal, an-) is still nerfuaded thar your •ffWWnowardsinm, andtofhew, by all th 4 icnor of yonr future conduit, that vou arc, determined to pursue with vigour the plan set on foot by the wisdom of /our anceft can.fccun: the an ' l *c r ? hc * Vou r High Mightlnefles will be rleafed to mttfa to the follewrrg dtciaratitn, w'hich tho undcrwxit ... . - •. ’ T.- x. . * ten now presents by express .eonifitand of his Court, will prove the touchfcoue 6f your intentions and fetftiments to* wards his Majesty, For a long timdpaft his Majesty has had rturabdrlef* for* mises of the dangerous delight hatched by an unbridle<f faction; bat the papers of the Sieur Laurens, calling him* felf the pretended Cortgrefa, have fed to the difeovery of a plot unprecedented in the annals of the Re pufehek. Jt appears bj*the papers alluded to that the State# of Amsterdam hafe entered into a clarideftine Correspon dence with the American Rebel* so early as the month of Augrsft 177X5 that infthi&iotia aed powers hav* bee# *i tJ>em for thfe purpose of entering into a treaty ®# mdiffolubie fnendfliip with the said Rebels, natural fob jes of a’ bovereig# to whom the RepubUck is joined by the ftrifteft ties of friendlhip. The authors of this plot do not pretend to deny it. They on the contrary avow and labour, though in vain, io juftify it. In these cir cumstances the King, relying on the equity of your High Mlghtinenes, requires that so irregular a conduft may bd formally disavowed, as it is no less contrary to yonr moft facied engagimentl than repugnant to the Duteh conft'i tuthwr. The King further iafifts on Speedy fatisfadion, equate: to th offence, and the exemplary puniffiment the Pen lion ary Van Berkel, and hi* accomplices,’ as dis- violators of the right! of - nations. Wi him/c7f thaf o# pur High Mightineffcs will be speedy and to the purpose in every refpefl ; but if the contrary (hobld.be the case, and your HighWightintfles (hould refufe to Comply yrith so just a rrqueft, or endeavour to p ifs it over in silence, which’ will be deemed as a denial, the King caijnot but look on the whole Republick as approving offoifdeeds which they would refufe to disavow or punifc; and in foch a safe his Majesty will think himfelf obliged to take foch ftep* a* became his dignity and the interests ofhh fubjedl*.
