STATE PAPERS. 
in concert with your allies of Zu- 
rich and Berne, since they tend to 
support the Helvetic neutrality—a 
neutrality which I have no need to 
request you will observe in the 
strictest manner. 
If my influence with these states, 
or the Helvetic bodies, could be of 
any utility in the present juncture, 
I should employ it with the more 
zeal, as I shoud in that conform to 
the wishes of his Majesty, whose 
desire is to see those bonds which 
unite you to the Helvetic body, 
and which do not appear to be in- 
compatible with the connexion you 
have with other powers, still far- 
ther strengthened. Without tak- 
ing up more of your valuable time, 
which must be continually employ- 
ed on the most important affairs, 
permit me, my Lords, to inform 
you that I flatter myself with soon 
having the honour of paying you a 
visit, and of renewing, verbally, 
those assurances of good-will and 
friendship, on the part of the King, 
which cannot be too oftenrepeated. 
I have the honour of being, with 
the most profound respect, 
Magnificent and most honour- 
ed Lords, : 
Your most humble and most 
obedient servant,
