From the Hague Gazette...LONDON, Fune g « M. de Bufly had a long Conference with Mr. Secretary PIT I on th2 5thinftant. However ferioufly difpofed our Court may be to bring about the re eftablfh- ment of a Peace, they cannot acquiclce with certain Propofitions which have been made onthe Part of the * Minitiry of France by the Organ of M. Bufiy, as they tend to engege Great Britain to make too confiderable Cellions of her Conquefts, and to agree to other Articles before the Meeting of the Congrefs. The King our Severcign would very readily ufe, on his Side, all the necefliry ficilities for advancing the great Work of Peacs ;.... but his Majelty is firmly relolved not to conflent to.any Thing that may wound his Honor, er prejudice the effent al Interefts of the Nation Fune 12. -+ M de Bufly had another Conference with Mr. PITT the Day baiore Yefterday, when he communicated fome Difpaicnes he received from his Court the Eveniog before, and in which they prop.e the agreeing upon a Salpanfion of HoRtilities between the two Kingdoms, previsus to every other Article ; But its faid that this Propofition has been rejeéled as derogatory to the Honour and Interefts of the Na'ion in the prefent Circumftances. It is certain, that M. de Bufy has fince difpacched sn Exprefs to Paris, with Letters, infosming the King his Mafter of the Difpofi- tion in which he has found the Britith Miniftry with refpeét to the Means that may tend to & Pacification.” From the Utrecht Gazette....Lonpon, june 9. « Itis faid that France has made Propofitions which are not accepiable. Nothing will be liftned to hers but a folid Accommodation, wherein our Honour and our eflential Interefts muft be confulted. From the Leyden Gezette....Lonpon, Juze 12, «The Sufpenfion of Hoftilites, propofed by M. de Bufly, has been rejeéted by cur Miniftry. From the Amfterdam Gazette...Lonpon June g. s The Courtcf Verfsilles is not fo complaifant as our Politicians imagined. It has made, thro’ the Infrument of M. Bafly fome Propoficions which ours cannot confent to. It even requires Eugland to re- nounce the beft Part of her Conquefts, as 2 neceflary prelude to the Succefs of the future Congrefs. From the Braffels Gazette ..Lonpon, fune g. « M. de Bafly’s Demands appear exorbitant to our Miniftry ; but as he, doubtlefs, did not expett they would acquiefce at all, the Negociation muft not be tho’t to be broke off becaufe the fi-ft Propofitions have not been accepted.
