The departure of the mails were suspended for some time. We have since heard that these ships have left that station to return by the Sound to the North Sea, in consequence of which the packet-boats have been suffer• ed to depart, arid the communication between Sweden and Po • cierarrais entirely free. ' _ _ • The ships of war which were seen at the entrance of the gulph of Bothnia, were stationed there the beginning of last tylnth. We are still ignorant of their ulterior destination. The result of alt the reconnoitriugs we have been abx to make that the maritime force of the English in the Baltic sea is not cnte-iderable. _ _ The entmy is not in a contlition to attempt any bold enter prize, nor execute a disembarkation. There are no troops on board the ships. The measures of .defence are 90 thoroughly organize i throughout Pomerania as to have nothing to fear. The militia perform regularly the military duties, and are greatly admired fur their excellent discipline.
