Declaration on Peace and War With France 1797
A formal royal declaration describes Britain's pursuit of peace through open negotiations, condemns France for obstinate demands and deceptive tactics, and pledges readiness to defend the realm. It lauds Britain's resolve, calling for equitable terms while warning that continued war burdens subjects and empire.

Paris Journals Report on Peace Hopes and Naval Events
The October Paris journals suggest limited importance with notes on Buonaparte’s shaky health and the Pope near death. Reports from Vienna cite Sir Morton Eden and Earl Camden dispatches while the Dutch Stadtholder visits London. Naval odds include a general thanksgiving and Lloyd’s relief subscription topping £3000 as ships return with Dutch prisoners and prize updates.
