DECLARTI5N of war,
BY FRANCIS I. EMPEROR OF AUSTRIA,
zf : . AND ADDRESS OF THE A 11 C 11 DUKE.
t .- ( Fruit the Vienna Guzttie.)
Vit.NN a, April 12.
Befot'ehif Tmireriat Majt siy lefi this capital,
he was pleased to issue the following
V PROCLAMATION.
Fr ancis I. By the Grace of God, Emperor
of Austria, &c.
People of Avstiiia ! I leave my Capital
to join thfc brave defenders of the country,
assembled on the frontiers for the protection
of the State. ..
" For these three years past, I have made
the utmost exertions to procure you, my be
loved subjects, the blessings of ;r permanent
peace. No sacrifice, any ways consistent
with jour w elfare, and with the independence
of the Stat,e however. painful, have I spared
to secure your tiniiuilil'y and welfare, by a
friendly understanding with the Linpeior cf
the French. ,
"But all nvy endeavors proved fruitless.
The Austrian monarchy was also to submit
to the boundless ambition of the Emperor
Napoleon ; and in the same manner he strives
to subdue Spain, insults the sacred Head of
the Lhurch, appropriates to himself the pro
vinces of Italy, and parcels out the German
dominions. Austria was to dp homage of the
great empfre, the-formation of which he has
loudly announced.
v I have adopted all necessary measures To
assert the independence of the .state. Not
only have ye answered my call, but your love
for your native" country has; prompted you to
anticipate,. iW - Accept my cordial thanks ;
they will be repeattd by my posterity and
yours. Self-defence, not invasion, was our
aim. But the Conqueror will not allow the
Sovereign of his people, strong in their mu
tual confidence, to possess sufficient' means to
oppose his ambitious views. lie declared
himself hostile to Austria, unless she should
relinquish her measures of defence, and pro
strate herself disarmed at his feet.- The dis
graceul proposal was rejected and noyv his
hostV are advancing against us, arrayed for
battle .. .
1 "T confide in God in the valour of my
armies, in the heroic conduct of my hrothr,
who leads thein on to glory, in you my belov
ed people. Our exertions for this war are
great ; but such they must be in order lo at
tain more securely the.irjpportarit end ol self
preservation.
11 What you have hitherto dpne is the most
unquestionable pledge of the powerful assjs-,
tance which l a m lo receive from youi' They
who bear, no arms, will aTso share in the pro
,'tection ot jelp country.- .Uii"aiMty:.:qy!.
- obedifcivcercttvityi , iSom?fencernri
the real strength of a natiOhi Y"oU have evin
ced them, anitta this alone is it owing, that
we start with a fairer prospect of success,
than we ever did . Fortunate events will not
unnerve your energy, nor disastrous occur
rences, should any happen, shake your frrm
resolve. Perseverent valour overcomes all
dangers, enhances every advantagend sup
plies all losses. Our cause is .just ; Provi
dence does not: forsake those who do not'for-
sake themselves.
" Tdepend on your love, your tried fidelity
to your Prince and Country. Depend ye on
the paternal solicitude of your Monarch, who
finds all his happiness in yours.
FRANCIS."
V ' A :i o i onei it
TjieArchdake Charles has issued the fol
lowing Address to the German natiorr :-
if '
1 His Majesty the Emperor of Austria is
forced to take up arms, because the French
Emperor will not tolerate the existence of a
State which does not acknowledge his supre
macy of power, nor stoop to become subservt
eht to his views of conq-;est ; because he re
quires that Austria bhlF renounce her inde
pendence, unbend her energies, and surren
der at the Conqueror's discretion ; because the
armies Of the Emperor of France, and of his
dependent allies, advance against Austria with
hpsiiie views.
2 The farces of Austria have risen for self
defence and self preservation at the nod of
their Monarch ; I aixi leading them on against j
the enemy, to prevent the certain attack he
prepared against us.
" We pass the frontiers not as conquerors ;
ljot as enemies of Germany ; not to destroy
German itistitutions, laws, customs, and man
ners, and impose foreign ones ; not to appro
piiate to ourselves the property of Germany,
or to sacrifice her children in distant wars,
carried on to destroy and subjugate-foreign
nations. No; we fight to assert the inde
pendence of the Austrian Monarchy, and to
restore to Germany the independence and
naltojuil honours which are due to her.
' " 'The same pretentions which now thvtfa't
en us have already prpved fatal to Germany.
Our assistance is her last effort to be saved..
Our cause is that of German v. United with
-Austi ia,-Germany-wai indt'pendent-and4ia-py
; it is only through the assistance of Aus
tria thut Germany can receive happiness and'
independence.
" Germans ! Consider your destruction.
Accept the aid we offer, end co operate with
us for your salvation. We demand frym you
no exertions, but such as the war for our
common cause requijes.Your property and
your domestic peapc are sepured by the J1C
plitie $f our troops. The Austrian armies
will not oppress, nor rob you ; they respect
you us biethren, chosen to fight jointly with
us, for your cause and fer ours. Be worthy of
our respect; such Germans only as forget
themselves are 6tir enemies. .
" Depend on my word, which I have more
than oiice- pledged, and redeemed, to save
you ! Depend on the word of my Emperor
and irother, which has never been violated.
M CHARLES, Generalissimo."

They threaten to overwhelm us with defeat
and disgrace upon the plains of Ulm and Ma
rengo. Your conduct will show what right
they ha,ye to make use of these threats. Sol
diers, oilf beloved sovereign, when he was First
Consul, offered peace, the emperor of Austria
refused it, Marengo compelled him to accept
of terms.; The English broke the treaty of
Amiens. Our sovereign, had collected his
armies on the Frencjj coast, and jhe emperor
of Austria availed hirirself ofThat juncture,
and without any previous declaration of war,
violated the territory of our allies, and threat
ened ours. Ulm compelled the enemy of
our Sovereign again to makepeace.. In the
present instance , the ,e.mperor of Austria has
threatened 'the territories of our allies without
the leakt appearance of any difference between
the two powers, and conceiving himself in i
situation to undertake hostilities, has actually
commenced war. The directors of the Aus
trian Cabinet have a very great, interest 'in the
resultbof their libellous scurrilities. AVoe be
