The undersigned Minister for Foreign Affairs having re ported to his Majesty the Emperor, his Master, the conver sation which he had with Baron Schwerin, Master of the ilorse, and Grand Master of the Ceremonies of the Order of Sweden, has receised his Majesty's command to declare to him in answer that his Imperial Majesty is animated by the most lively desire to conclude a speedy peace with Sweden. The interruptions of the military operations at a moment when the success attained afforded the most flat tering,. hopes of gaining still greater advantages, cannot but prove it in the most unquestionable manner; but his Ma jesty feel• extremely concerned to discern very clearly that the Swedish Government - is not influenced by the same de-' sire, but merely endeavours to protract matters, and thus to re move the salutary work of peace to a still greater distance. His Majesty has also strong seasons, from MI the intelligence he re ceives from Sweden, to entertain a just distrust with regard to the situation of the actual government of Sweden. All these considerations impose on him the painful obligations to refuse the proposed armistice, and to continue hostilities until the pe. rind when a lawful government in Sweden shall acquaint hills Oat it is sincerely and firmly determined to conclude peace on the sole conditions which his imperial Majesty can accept, and which are ;Arcady known to Sweden. This resolutina of his Majesty is not by any means dictated by a de-ire to make new acquisi tions, and he declares himself ready to restore all that shall have been occupied by his troops on the other side of Kalie. The undersigned avails himself of this opportunity, &c. &c. (Signed) Count NICHOLAS ItOMANZOLF. COPY OF A LETTER FROM COUNT ROMANZOFF TO BARON LAGEREJELKL, DATED br.
