These were substantial grounds for expecting that he would give cordial support to France. But, on the other hand, Charles III. Was vividly impressed with the traditional hostility of the Bourbons to the Hapsburgs, and he resented the new French policy of alliance with Austria. It was unadvi8able for a new king to excite the hostility of England, and Charles contented himself at first with offering his services as a mediator. Choiseul was anxious to conclude a separate treaty with England which... should detach that power from the continental war. But Pitt, in his loyalty to his ally, rejected the proposal with decision. Prussia and England, however, proved their desire for peace by issuing a joint declaration at Ryswick (October, 1759) in which they suggested the summons of a European congress to settle all dispute. But the suggestion was taken as a proof of weakness, and Russia and Austria refused to lint en to it. Maria Theresa had to pay a heavy price for the faithfulness of her northern ally.
