"It is assured that some preliminary articles that are to serve for the basis of an accommodation between the court of Vienna and the republic of Holland, have been signed by the Emperor's Ambassador, and those of the United-Provinces. Others pretend, nevertheless, that in the conference between these Ministers, nothing was done but the exchanging of their full powers, as the negotiations could not be renewed without that formality. They add, another courier from Vienna was expected, in order to know whether the Emperor will desist from some articles which the States General cannot admit as a foundation of the reconciliation. On account of the distance between the courts interested in the negotiation, the arrangement of the different difficulties require a considerable time."
