NEW-YORK, January 12
Earl Spencer has actually returned from Vienna, without accomplishing the object of his mission. This event alone is a strong evidence of the debilitated state of the coalition; and when united with the advances of the King of Prussia for a separate peace, and the arrival of the grand Pensionary of Holland in England with power to urge a peace, indicates a complete dissolution of the confederacy against France. Pressed as Holland must be with a French army, and internal dissension, the embassy of Mr. Fagel may be considered, as a justificatory step towards making a separate peace with France. If a separate peace is intended; this measure is the least that the state of Holland could take with her allies.

Event Details
Earl Spencer returned from Vienna without success, evidencing the coalition's debilitated state. Combined with Prussia's separate peace advances and Holland's grand Pensionary Mr. Fagel's arrival in England to urge peace, it points to the anti-French confederacy's dissolution. Holland, pressured by French army and internal dissension, justifies this embassy toward separate peace with France.
