Hisimperial majesty has been pleas- 
ed tolay thisactof pacification before 
a council summoned specially for that 
purpose, that it might be compared 
both with the instructions given to 
M. d’Oubril here, and with the or- _ 
ders sent to him at Vienna, before 
his departure from that city ; and it 
has appeared that the counsellor of 
state, d’Oubril, when he signed the 
convention, had not only departed 
from the instructions he had re- 
ceived, but had acted directly con- 
trary to the sense and intention of 
the commission given him. 
The imperial council, with a com. 
mon feeling for the honour of the 
country, and abiding by the known 
principles of his imperial majesty, 
which are founded in the strictest 
justice, have declared as their com. 
mon opinion, that this act, which is 
not conformable to the views of his 
imperial majesty, cannot receive his 
majesty’s ratification; and his im- 
perial majesty has ordered this to 
be notified to the French govern- 
ment. His majesty, at the same time, 
has signified his willingness to renew 
the negotiations for peace, but only 
on such principles as are suitable to 
the dignity of his majesty. 
Tbe ministry for foreign affairs 
has made an official communication 
on this subject to all the foreign mi- 
nisters accredited to this court.
