ETT'-T being eflential, ag well asagreeable & to the Defires of France and'England, thac the Treaty of projected peace ferve for - the Bafis of a folid Reconciliation between the twa Crowns, which may not be diftar- bed by the Interelts of a third power, and the Engagement which one or the other « Court may haveentered into anterioufly to their Reconciliation ; the King of Spain fhallbe invited to guaranty the Treaty of future peace,between bis Chriftian Majefty and the King of Great Britain. = This ‘g}ua- ranty willobviate the Inconveniences both prefene & fature, refpe&iflg the‘Sofidity‘ of the peace. The King will not canceal from his Bri- tannick Majelty, that the Differénces of - Spain with Kogland,alarms and make him dread, if they fhouldnot be adjufted; anew War in Europe and America, The King of Spain has coafided to his Majefty, the three points of Difcuflion which fubfilts be- tween: his Crown and that of Great-Britain. Thefe are, 1. The Reflitution of fome “prizes made during the prefent War, under the Spanifb Flag. v 2. Liberty to the Spanifb Nation of fifbing on the Banks of Newfoundland. 3. The Deftruftion of the Englifb Eftablif)- ments formed onshe Spanifb Territoryinthe Bay of Homduras.” Thefe three Articles may be eafily fettled agreeably to the Fuftice of the two Sovereigns, and the King defires earneltly, that they may be ableso find out Temperaments, which may con- tenit on tbejfififi Points the Spanifb and Englifb Nations ; But he cannot difJemble for England the Danger which be forefees, and which he will be forced to partake of, if thefe Objects, which mayaffe [enfibly bis Catholick Majefty, fbould end in a War. It is for this Reafon that his Majefty regards as one of the firft Confiderations Jor the Advantage and Solidity of the Peace, that at the fame Time that this defirable End fhallbe festled between France and England, bis Britannick Majefty would terminate bis Dif- ferences with Spain, and agree that the Catho- lick King [ball be invitedto guaranty the Treaty which is to reconcile ( would to God it may be for ever ) bis Moft Chriftian Majefty and the King of England. - For thereft bis Majefly does not communicate his Fears on this Head to the Court of London, but. with vhe moft uprighs and openr Intentions of preventing every Lhing which may bappen to interrupt the Union of the French and Englifb Nations : and the King entreats bis Britanuick Majefty, whom be fuppofes animated with the Jame Defire, to tell bim, withous Difguife, his Opinion on an Objelt jo effential. The following Extraét of the Hiftorical Memoridl of the Negotiation of Peace between' England and . France, publithed by Authority in Paris, however it may be republifhed in fome foreign countries, thews the fpiric and dignity with which Mr. PITT eluded the fnares laid for his country. A M. Bufly’s Note to Mr. Pitt. ;T’S"J INCE the Memurial of the propofitions o.cw from France was formed, and ac ihe inflant shat the courier was ready to fet out Sor London, the King received the confent of the Emprefs Queen to a feparate peace with England, but upon 1wo conditions : : 1. To keep poffe(fion of the countries belong- ing to the King of Pruffia. i 2. Thatit [ballbe ftipulated, that the King of Great Britain, neither in bis capacity of King or Elelor [ball afford any fuccour, either in troops, or of any kind whatever, to the King of Pruffia ; and that his Britannic Majefty will undertake that she Hanoverian, Heffian, Brunf- wickian, and the other ausxiliaries in alliance with Hanover, [ball not join the forces of the King of Pruffia, in like manner as France [ball engage, on her part, not to yield faccour of any kind to the Emprefs Queen, nor ber Allies. Both thefe condiciens appear [o natural and equitable in thamfelves, that bis Majefly could not do atherwife than acquigfce in them ; and he hopes that she King of Grear Brisain will be ready to adopt thetn. Mr. PITT’s Letter, in Anfwer to the fore- A goiog, July 24, 1761. IR, oo cw dving explained myfelf, in our former con- f...ti. ference yeflerday with refpect ta ersain engagements of France with Spain, relative tb the difpires of the ‘latter Crown with Greas- Britain, of which your Court never inforined us, but as she very inllant of making, as fbe bas dome, ber firft propcfitions for the fipamre peace of the two Urowns ; and as you bave defired for the fake of greater puntuality, to take anote of what pafjed between us upom fo weighty a Jubje® 1 here repeat, Sir, by bis Majefiy's orders, the [ame declaration, word for “word, which I made to you yeflerday, and- apain anticipate you with refpelt to the mof fincere Jentiments of friend(bip and vealregard on. the pare.of bis Majefty rowards the Catholic King, in every particular confifient with reafn and juftice. © Iv is my duryto declare further ta you in plain terms, in the name of his Ma~ Jefty, That be will not fuffer the difputes with Spain to be biended in any manne: whatever, i the negotiation of peace besween the two Crowns ; to which Fmuft add, That it will be covfidered as an affront to his Maje[ty’s dignity, and as a thing incompatible with the fincerity of the negaiiatiam, tomake farther menvion of fuch a circumltance. : " Moreover, it is expetied that France will not, ak @ny time, perfume a right of intermeddling in Juch difputes between Great Britian and Spain. ¢ Thefe confiderations, Jo juft and indifpenfible, bave determined his Magefty o order me to re- turn you the Memorial which vccafions this, as wholly inadmiffible. At 1 likewife return you, Sir,as totally inadmi- Jible, the ~ Memorial relative to the King of Pruffia, as implying an attempt upon the Honour of Greas- Britain, and the Fidelity with which his Majefty will always fulfil bis engage- ments with bis Allies. : : T havethe Homour to be, &¢, figned (PITT.) i. The ableft Politig ns at Faris think, thas France has loft ber Time in making a feparase Peace, and afiribe to this the making the whole Negotiation public, in order to induce vhe Werld to belicve,that i was really impo[fible for theme to mmke 165 and that vhis may perhaps be con-' tradifled, in fuch a manneryas to fbew that they over reached or impofed upon themfelves, and by this Publication aim only at concealing it, by attempting to Impofe upen the World, as they did in regard to the Origin of the War.
