Helvetic body. That body, which had once formed a portion of the German empire, had for ages ceased to consider itself dependent on the imperial government, to the support of which it was neither called to contribute men nor money. The only remaining vestige of . Dependence was the formal confirmation of their franchises, from time to time renewed to the ...confed- erates by the emperor. The Swabian war, the design of which had been to reduce the Swiss to their original subservience to the empire, missed its aim ; but the claims of the empire were never entirely abandoned. Occasional encroachments on the Helvetic body took place, — in particular through the agency of the court of the imperial chamber. But now the Swiss am- bassador succeeded in obtaining the insertion of a clause into the treaty of Westphalia, which formally, and for ever, de- clared the absolute independence and separation of the lands of the confederacy from the German empire.
