From a late English paper.

The anxiety of the public on the late rumours, with respect to the king of Prussia and the Emperor, has naturally given rise to a variety of stories; the truth or falsehood of which it is not easy to ascertain. It is said, however, and with probability, as the cause of the journey both of the arch-duke to Vienna, and of lord Elgin to England; that the Prussian minister at Brussels had presented an official note to prince Charles, of so interesting a kind as to induce his highness to repair to the head-quarters to hold a consultation with the prince of Cobourg and the other chiefs, at which the Imperial and British ministers assisted. The result of this council, held at Aix-la-Chapelle, the arch-duke thought proper himself to hear to Vienna, and lord Elgin to England. The substance of the communication is said to be an offer made to Prussia by the French, so wise, moderate, and political, as to induce him to entertain it cordially, and to submit it seriously to the other combined powers.

The King of Prussia cannot be purchased for a million, and if he is to go to the highest bidder, there can be little doubt as to the result.—The French Republic has, at this moment, by the lowest computation, not less than 40 millions sterling in its Exchequer. The committee of Public Safety possessing so large a stock, with so precarious an interest in it, will not be easily out-bidden, whatever be the competition!
