SIR, 



I HAVE the honour to acquaint 

 you, that the union of Corsica 

 to the crown of Great Britain is 

 finally and formerly concluded; and 

 it is r.'ith the most sincere satisfac- 

 tion that 1 find myself enabled to 

 assure you that no national act was 

 ever sanctioned by a more unani- 

 mous proceeding on the part of 

 those who were authorized to do it, 

 or by a more universal approbation, 

 amounting, 1 may say, to enthusiasm 

 on the part of the people. 



I have already had the honour of 

 trans.-.iitting to you a copy of the 

 letter addressed by his excellency 

 my lord Hood and myself to liis 

 excellency general Paoli, dated tli£ 

 21st of April. I have the honour 

 to iticlose to-day a copy of the cir- 

 cular letter, addressed hy general 

 Paoli to his countrymen, referring 

 to that which he had received from 

 us, an Italian translation of wrhich 

 was annexed. 



Letters of convocation were soon 

 after issued for the assembly of the 

 General Consult to be held at Cor- 

 te, on Sunday, the 8th of June, and 

 were so framed as to procure the 

 most general representation known 

 in this island, every community, 

 which is the smallest territorial di- 

 vision, having eent its representa- 

 tive, and the state of property being 

 such, that iJthough none but land- 

 holders were electors, every man, al- 

 most without exception, has voted. 

 The letters of convocation set 

 forth the occasion of their being 

 called together j and the minutes of 

 election in every community ex- 

 pressed the general nature of ths 

 measure to which the deputies were 



au:.';orized
