Lord3r, Itc. 2.


We on Saturday laid before our
readers the ditreHing Intelligence
received from Holland, Of the Ggna-
turc Of a Treaty of Peace between the
Emperor of Germany and the French
The followingis the letter from the
Dutch Admiral Kikhert
i" Brutus, Nov. "a, i8os.-Rear
Admiral KMkhert, has the honer~to
inform the commander Of any of his
Britanic Majefy's fhips which are Oh
the coaft of Holland, that the .impor-
tant intelligence Qfpesce having been
fgncd between his majeity the en-
peror Of the French and the emperor
Of Germany, under the walls of.Vi-
cRna, has been received by an extra !.
ordinary courier and that the con-
ditiops we're 70 fettled, that until the
ratification Of the treaty, Venice and
the whole of the TyroI fhoult con-
tinue in'the hands Of the French.
The Archdukc Charles is dead with
chagrin and fatigue. A more de-
tailed account is every moment cx-
pe6ted of the conditions of the treaty
among which, it is faid, there is an
article, Eating that the government
of Aufria is pay to the emperor
of the French forty millions of IL
vTes. KIRKHERT t."


Upon the facts communicated in
this letter, we fhall fufpend our OBJ
fervations. until they arc confirmed
by more authentic intelligence. =
There are fome circumstances rcla-
tive to this, which tend to excite iuf-
picion. We have received the Bata-
Wan State Gazette of the 2sth ult.
which is the fame day that the Dutch
AdmiraPs letter is dated. That pa.
per does not fay one word upon the
fuhje6t of a peace having been con-
ciuded, but it certainly is poihble that
the extraordinary courier, mentioned
in Ad. Kirkhert's letter might have
arrived after that paper had been put
10 preis. Ii is however, extremely
improbable that the intelligence
ihould have arrived at the Texcl be.
fore It reached the Hague.


If an extraordinary couricr had
been difpatehed with the news of a
treaty of peace having been Egned,
he would naturally gone in the hra
initance TO the Hague, as the feat of
government, and not to the Texel.


The diitance between the Hague
and the rexel is fomething more
han % miles, therefore it the die
,,atches did not arrive at the Hague
I'll the 25th, it is hardly POG5le they
