STATE PAPERS. PAPERS RELATIVE ΤΟ RUSSIA PAPERS RELATIVE TO RUSSIA. No. I.-Note from General Budberg, to his Excellency Lord Granville Leveson Gower, dated June 24, 1807. My Lord,-Accept my best thanks for the promptitude with which you had the goodness to transmit to me the dispatches which I have received, toge ther with your excellency's letter of the 11th and 23d instant. The reports which your lordship mentions are well founded. On the 9th and 21st instant an armistice was concluded, which was yesterday ratified by both parties. The two armies remain nearly in the same positions, and hostilities will not recommence until a month after the denunciation of the armistice. Sensible that it is of the utmost importance to you to transmit this intelligence as speedily as possible to your court, I lose not an instant in re-dispatching the messenger whom your excellency has sent to me. will In respect, my Lord, to the interview which you request of me, it would give me great pleasure to comply with your wishes, if it were possible for me to foresee at what place the Emperor stay even for a few days; but as we are still upon our journey, I must wait for the first opportunity of taking his Imperial Majesty's commands, in order to invite you to rejoin me, where may then be. I have the honour to be, &c. A. DE BUDBERG. No. II.-Note from his Excellency Lord Granville Leveson Gower, to General Budberg, dated Memel, 10-28 June, I 1807. General, I have to acknowledge the receipt of the intelligence of the armistice which was signed on the 21st of this month, and although I implicitly confide in your excellency's as VOL.

The King of Bavaria has published an Ordonnance, by which every child within his dominions who has not attained the age of three years, shall be vaccinated before the 1st of June, 1808; and every infant born in future shall undergo the same inoculation within three months after its birth. Heavy penalties are inflicted on the neglect of this decree; and inoculation for the small pox prohibited under pain of imprisonment. The government of Piombino and Lucca, in Italy, have issued an order, by which every inhabitant is obliged, under the penalty of 100 livres, to notify when any person in his family is attacked by the small-pox. An informer of a concealed patient is to have 50 livres. Any house infected with the natural small pox, is to be blocked up, guarded, and all communication with those within is to be intercepted. Any person endeavouring to escape from such house is to be imprisoned. Within 14 days of the publication of this order, every person who has uot had the small pox is to be inoculated with the cow pox, and every new born child to be vaccinated within two months after its birth. The inoculation to be performed gratis by the physicians to the government; and any person who, having undergone the vaccine inoculation, shall take the small pox naturally, is to receive 100 livres. DOMESTIC INTELLIGENCE. FROM THE LONDON GAZETTES. Saturday, Jan. 9. The Right Hon. George Canning, his Majesty's principal secretary of state for foreign affairs, has this day notified to the ministers of friendly and neutral powers resident at this court, that his Majesty has judged it expedient to direct that the most rigorous blockade should be established at the entrances of the ports of Carthagena, Cadiz and St. Lucar; and that the saine will be maintained and enforced in the strictest manner, according to the usages of war acknowledged and allowed in simi lar cases. A letter from Captain Rainier, of his Majesty's ship Caroline, to RearAdmiral Sir E. Pellew, states, that on the 27th of January, 1807, he had, off Alba, in the Straits of St. Bernardine, captured the St. Raphael Spanish register ship, mounting 16 guns, with 96 men, and having on board upwards of 500,000 Spanish dollars in specie, 1700 quintals of copper, besides a valuable cargo. She sailed from Lima on the 12th of the preceding November, 'bound to Manilla. The Caroline had 7 men wounded, one of whom died; the enemy had 27 killed and wounded. The same gazette contains a notification of the appointment of the Duke of Manchester to be Captain-General and Governor of Jamaica, &c. The appointment of Francis Hill, Esq. to be Secretary of Legation to the court of the Prince Regent of Portugal; and of Lieutenant General Villettes, to be Lieutenant Governor of Jamaica. BY THE KING. A PROCLAMATION FOR A FAST. George R. We, taking into our most serious consideration the just and necessary war in which we are engaged, and putting our trust in Almighty God, that he will graciously bless our resolved, and do by and with the arms, both by sea and land, have advice of our privy council, hereby command that a public day of fasting and humiliation be observed, throughout those parts of our united kingdom called England and Ireland bruary next ensuing, that both we on Wednesday, the 17th day of Feand our people may humble ourselves before Almighty God, in order to obtain pardon for our sins, and in the most devout and solemn manner send up our prayers and supplications to the Divine Majesty for averting those heavy judgments which our manifold provocations have most justly deserved, and for imploring his blessing and assistance of our arms for the restoration of peace, and prosperity to us and our dominions. And we do strictly charge and command, that the said public fast be reverently and devoutly observed by all our loving subjects in England and Ireland, as they tender the favour of Almighty God, and would avoid his wrath and indignation, and upon pain of such punishment as we may justly inflict on all such as contemn and neglect the performance of so religious and necessary a duty and for the better and more ordinary solemnizing the same, we have given directions to the most reverend the bishops of England and Ireland, to compose a form of prayer suitable to this occasion, to be used in all churches, chapels, and places of public worship, and to take care that the same be timely dispersed throughout their respective dioceses. Given at our court at the Queen's palace, this sixth day of Jan. one thousand eight hundred and eight, in the forty-eighth year of our reign God save the King. Another proclamation directs a similar fast in Scotland, on the following day, Thursday, the 18th of February. The Gazette of the 24th. contains addresses, praying for a continuance of vigorous measures, by the Lord Provost and magistrates of Edinburgh, certain merchants and manufacturers of Glasgow, and the baillies and trustees of Port Glasgow and Newark; all of which his Majesty has been pleased to receive very graciously! Orders have been just sent from the Admiralty to all the dock yards, VOL. 111. for an immediate return of every vessel that can, with the utmost possible exertion, be added to the maritime force of the country within the next three months. When ministers are resolved to go to war with the whole world, it is but prudent in them to ascertain the means with which they are to contend against such a combination; but surely it would have been somewhat more prudent in them to have taken this step before they formed such a resolution. Admiral Murray has arrived at Portsmouth with part of the transports, &c. from Buenos Ayres. The Campion transport, as a cartel from Buenos Ayres, brought home 124 men of the 71st. regiment, and 54 seamen and marines belonging to his Majesty's ships Diadem, Raisonable, Diomede, and Leda. They were taken prisoners with General Beresford at Buenos Ayres, on the 12th. of August, 1806, and were marched to Catarmarca, upwards of 900 miles into the interior, beyond Cordova, to the South-west of the Andes; from whence they could not arrive in time at Monte Video, to be embarked at the final evacuation of that country. More than 200 men (principally of the 71st. Highland regiment) who had entered into prosperous engagements in farins, which the Spaniards had stocked for them, refused to leave the country, and they are left behind. A num ber of them had married the native women. The Campion is the last British vessel that was to leave South America; Captain Carroll, of the 88th. regiment, and Captain Hamilton, of the 5th. regiment, who were left by General Whitelocke, as hostages for the fulfilment of the treaty; came home in her. The Anson frigate, of 38 guns, Capt. Lydiard, and the Arriope, a transport, with part of the 38th. and 90th regiments, from Portsmouth, bound to Cork, are both lost. The H in person the assurances of the esteem, and high consideration with which I have the honour to be, Your Excellency's, &c. G. L. GOWER. No. III.-Note from General Budberg, to his Excellency Lord Granville Leveson Gower, dated Tilsit, 13-30 June, 1807. Sir, and Ambassador, -I have received the letter which your excellency did me the honour of addressing to me yesterday; and, having laid it before the Emperor, my august Master, I hasten to transmit you the answer which his Imperial Majesty has commanded me to return to it, The firmness and perseverance with which his Majesty during eight months maintained and defended a cause which he had reason to suppose common to all Sovereigns, are the most certain pledges of the intentions which animated him, as well as of the loyalty and purity of his principles. Never would his Imperial Majesty have thought of deviating from that system which he has hi therto pursued, if he had been supported by a real assistance on the part of his allies. But having, from the separation of Austria and of England, found himself reduced to his own forces, having to combat with the forces of France united to the immense means of which she has the disposal, and in the critical position at which affairs had arrived, his Majesty was authorised in believing, that by continuing to sacrifice himself for others, he would ultimately incur a risk of compromising the safetyof his own empire, without being enabled to hope that he might ever fulfil the original object of this war. The conduct which your government has held during these latter times, is moreover of a nature completely to justify the determination which the Emperor has now taken. The diversion on the continent, which England has so long since promised, has not to this day taken place and if even, according to the latest advices from London, it would appear that the British ministry has at length decided on ordering the departure of 10,000 men to Pomerania, that succour is in no wise proportioned, either to the hopes which we were authorised in entertaining, or to the importance of the object to which these troops were 'ntended to be destined. The pecuniy succours which Eng land constantly afforded to the powers of the continent at war with France, might in some degree have supplied the want of English troops. Not only did the British government decline facilitating the loan which the imperial court had intended to negociate at London; but when it at length decided on offer. ing some subsidy to the continental powers, it appeared that the sum deștined for this purpose, so far from meeting the exigencies of the allies, would not even have covered the indispensable expences of Prussia. In fine, the use which has been made of the British forces in the Mediterranean has not been more conformable than the rest to the unity and the connection with which it was indispensable to act in the operations of Russia and England. In lieu of attempting an expedition on the continent of Italy, with a view of re-conquering the kingdom of Naples, or else in lieu of uniting these forces to those of Russia which were designed to compel the Porte to a reasonable peace, one part of the Eng lish troops stationed in Sicily directed their course towards an entirely differ ent destination, which the British government had not even judged proper to communicate to the court of Russia. It is a point not to be contested, that, by following one or the other of the courses which I have just cited, the English troops in the Mediterranean would have been of an infinitely greater utility to the common cause, by compelling the enemy to divide his forces, which would have enabled Russia to have sent her main army those reinforcements, which she was under the necessity of employing on the Danube, to support her army destined to make head against the Turkish forces which might be collected in that quarter. From this statement, I am willing to believe that your excellency will be persuaded, that in such a conjuncture, it only remained for the Emperor my master to look to the glory and to the security of his empire, and that if the present crisis does not produce every result which might be expected; if the powers equally interested had displayed vigour in the same proportion as they have exhibited tardiness and irresolu tion in all their operations, no blame can on this account be attached to Russia. But, at this time, the Emperor my master offers his mediation to his |
