It detailed a conversation which he bad had with the Emperor of the Preach; the result of which - eras, that your Majesty wooki have to choose bet Ween the interruption of your relation, with France, and a format declaration of war against England. Baron Alquier, IMP French Minister at Stockholm, presented a mote to the same effect, and demanded a categorial answer within five days, . threatening to quit Sweden should the Government not obey the will of his master. 66 When your Majesty, at a esoment• so urgent, I took a view of the internee and external situation of • your kingdom, yon saw no means *hick could enable yea to adept a free decision. The Conti. nental Powers then followed solely the impulse of France ; and the season of the year removed } every hope of being assisted by England, in the event of the kingdom being attacked during the Course of the winter. The shortness of the tern find for ',tubing an answer, did not admit of at. certaining the sentiments of the neighbouring States;. and the resources of the realm, both in money, and in the means of defence, were so limited, that there was no nattering prospect of being able to secure the integrity and independence of Sweden. The Prince Royal, penetrated with . the necessity of sav ing the State, imposed silence on Ms affections, and solemnly declared, that your Majesty ought to dis miss all consideration of his peculiar situation, and of his past connections, and that he would execute with zeal and fidelity whatever your Majesty might enjoin for maintaining the honour and independence of the kingdom.
