F Rom Petersburgh, that a Body of 15,000 Tartars of Crim, attempting to force a Paffage thro' the Czarina's Territories to join the Turkish Army in Perfia, were repulfed by the Ruffians un- A der the Command of the Prince of HeffeHombourg with a great slaughter. provided against, by declaring that Arch bishoprick vacant. Another Difficulty was the Law order'd, that the deceas'd King fhould be buried before the Coronation of his Succeffor. This they eluded by performing his Obfequies in Reprefentation; after which the Bishop of Cujavia proceeded to the Ceremony of Coronation. This occafioned a Satire, entitul'd, The Arguments of the Acts of the Comedy of Warfaw; Act I. A King without a Diploma. II. A Funeral without a Corpfe. III. A Coronation without a Primate. ÏV. A Dyet, without Nuncios. V. Protefts without Effect. During thefe Tranfactions the Prince of Conti caft Anchor before Dantzick. Soon after he came to Oliva, and was again proclaimed King, was defired to enter Poland, and promifed AffiftC ance; but was oblig'd to retire to France, after feeing Marienbourg, the only Place he relied on, open its Gates to the Saxons. B As nothing certain can be gather'd of the prefent Election in Poland, it may not be improper to give afhort sketch of that of King Auguftus, from the Abbot de Parthenay's Hiftory. So fine aSubject, fays he, merits fo much the more a juft and fincere Writer, as it has been disfigured by M. de Voltaire, who studying to embellish his Work, was not much concern'd, whether his Defcriptions were true. Witness that of Altena and the Siege of Riga.-After the Death of Sobieski, the Affairs of Poland, were greatly embarrass'd. The Turks and Tartars ravag'd it; the Czar demanded that the King to be chosen fhould renounce fome of his Titles, and a Civil War under the Name of a Confederacy, broke out in Lithuania. Several Princes intrigued for the Crown, who, by the Address of the Minifter of France, D were fet afide in favour of the Prince of Conti; then a Party was form'd, fupported by the Emperor, for raifing to the Throne Frederic Auguftus, Elector of Saxony. The General Dyet open'd the 15th of May, 1697; and after some sharp Contests, Card. Radziewski, the Primate, declared the Prince of Conti King, with the Acclamations of more than 80,000 Gentlemen. But Auguftus being chofe by another Party, enter'd Poland with an Army, and foon brought over many to his Intereft. The French Party decreased fenfibly by the abfence of the Prince of Conti, and the Delay of the Remittances F and Troops he promis'd the Republic. The Abbot de Polignac and the Primate protested against the Election of Auguf tus as illegal, the Proclamation having been made by a Bishop, in prejudice of the Rights of the Primate, and without the Confent of the Republick; the Dyet G of Confirmation unanimoutly confirmed the Prince of Conti; and figned a Confederacy in Defence of their Religion and Liberty. Auguftus furmounted all these and other Difficulties. Firft the Place where the Royal Ornaments were kept, being poffefs'd by his Adverfaries he broke it open. The Second Difficulty; that by the Laws of Poland, the King must be crown'd by the Arch Bishop of Guefna, Primate of the Kingdom, was H From Warfaw, That the Troops of the Czarina, to the Number of 50,000 Men had enter'd Poland, under the Command of General Leslie, who had declared by a Manifefto in her Majesty's Name, it was only to preserve the Freedom and Rights of Election. From Drefden. That the Saxon Forces with a Train of Artillery, were in Motion towards Poland. The Lithuanians having determined to make that Elector their King, if not King of Poland, and this too confiftent with their Oaths, not to Elect a Foreigner; they having trac'd his Defcent from the famous Fagellan Duke of Lithuania and K. of Poland. From Calais, That a French Squadron of 18 Men of War well provided, was fail'd for Dantzick with K. Stanislaus on board and a fair Wind. From Paw That the King of Spain was dispos'd to make a Diversion in the Milanefe with an Army of 18,000 Foot and 7000 Horfe in favour of the French in cafe of War with the Emperor. But that they expected to be oppofed on the Rhine, where they had a large Army ready to enter the Empire, by the King of Pruffia. From Danzick, That the Primate had called a Council, wherein it was refolved to oppofe the Ruffians with all the Forces of the Republic. P. S. There is now a Report that tue Primate is dead. "Tis affirm'd, that M. Leuenwold, the Ruffian Miniftet, was shot at, upon which he had retireed from Warsaw. -Bonds I . 19 -dit. 3 per C. 97 42 Bank 145. Towards the End of the Month.
