On the Comparative Conduct of France and Great Britain in the Present War
During the summer of 1791, some of the principal powers of Europe, at a convention at Pilnitz in Saxony, agreed to take advantage of the distracted situation of France, to new model her government, and to divide among themselves such parts of that kingdom as were most convenient to their respective territories. On the 6th of July, 1791, the emperor of Germany issued his circular letter against the French, dated at Pavia, and in that month the following articles were agreed on by the combined powers.
Partition Treaty between the Courts in concert, concluded and signed at Pavia, July, 1791.
His majesty the Emperor will re-take all that Louis XIV conquered in the Austrian Netherlands; and uniting these provinces to the said Netherlands, will give them to his serene highness the Elector Palatine, so that these new possessions added to the Palatinate may hereafter have the name of Australia.
