Thomas Robinfon, fon to Lord Granthan, andMember of Parliament for Chrilt Church in Hanes, kifled his Majefty’s hand, on his being ap- pointed Secretary to the Right Hon. the Earl of Egre- mont, and the other Britifh Pienipotentiarics at the Con- grels of Augfburg. July 10. We hear that in the Draught of the new Treaty of Peace betweenEngland andFrance,what Lands are to be underftood byCanada and Louifans, are point ed out in the moft clear and precife manner, by their Latitade and Longitude from points, and not left to be determined afterwards, as the French fhall think pro- per, but we find that this Precaution was not thought of in the Negotiations at Utrecht, which Neglet oc- cafioned all the Alteration and Bloodfhed that hath fince happened on Account of America. Some private Letters from Paris import, that the Court haviag great Expetations of a fpeedy Vifit from the Britifh fecond Lxpedition Fleet on their Coaft, had ordered sli the Forces they could fpare et this Time, to the feveral Parts end Places the moft defencelefs.

It is now confidenly faid, that the principal difference remaing to be adjufted between our Court and that of France, is that the later is labouring to make 2 {eperate Peace with Great Britain, whillt our Court thinks it better to make a generzl one, and by that means put a ftop to the efiufion of Chriftian blood, which too pro- bably will not be effe@ed by a feparate Peace. Vaft preparationsare making for thelarl ofEgremont’s appearance at the Congrefs. It is faid he will be at- tendsd by Naoblemen and other perlons of diftinction, to the number ot two hundred, on his entrance into the city of Augfburg. The young Count de Brahl and M.

His Pruflizn Majefty is at prefent encamped in the Mountaine, in order to have it the more in his Power to reinforce his Armies on the Frontiefs of Po'and in Pomersniza and on the March of Brandenburg ; asa Delay of any Thing decifive, for three Weeks, willin the Opinion of the ableft Politictans, ex'ricate his Ma- jefty trom moft of his Difficulties, and turn them per- haps upon his hitherto implacable Enemies.
