"Lord Hawkesbury presents his compliments to Mr. King, and has the honor to inform him that Mr. Moore is arrived with the Definitive Treaty of Peace, which was signed at Amiens at 4 o'clock on the 27th instant, by his majesty's plenipotentiary, and the French, Spanish, and Batavian Plenipotentiaries."
Downing street,
March 29, 1802.
A gentleman who came passenger in the ship Mercury, from London, brought dispatches from Mr. King, American minister at the court of Great Britain, which were yesterday forwarded to the Secretary of State. We learn that Mr. King intended leaving London the ensuing summer for France, on his return to the United States; from this we conclude, that he is already, or expects to be, recalled.
