A.s alarming occurrence took place here within these last few days:—Colonel d'Arblersparre, who commanded the troops ou the frontiers of Norway, after having seduced them, marched in here on the night of the 6th inst. and demanded of the Burgomaster quarters for his troops, which was refused; in consequence of which he mile up lineation, in the most presumptuous manlier, to Count Rosen, the Governer, stating, that if his re quest was not granted, the troops lie commanded should enforce it, and take quarters where% er they mould find them. " Count Bosco still persisting in the refusal, he 314 ordered wider arrest, as the Burgomaster ; and the troops forcibly obtained what their Leader had demanded. "CoLd'Addersparie, at the head of 9.000 regular hoop% and about the fume number of peasantry, are now on their march to Stockholm, to demand of the King to call a Diet of the Stites, as well as to obtain* payment of the troops under his com mand. Should these demands be resisted, the consequences must be dreadful, as Steekholus is hot prepared for defence, all the troops having been withdrawn to Aland." GOTTENFORGH, MARCH 10. The Troops on the borders of Norway being iu a state of insurreciion, caused by their want of clothing and provisions, and having broken up from their positions, to march *against Stockholm, the Magistratee of this place have deemed it ad visable to assemble the principal merchants, and to require a loan of twenty thousand to pay off the arrears due to the troops in this district, and to prevent them from following the example of those nheady muturied.—A anbacrip tion was imincditin ly opeind, rind the necessary sum provided. This city being hitherto garrisoned by the militia, who are inifortunatcly iii a had state of health, and 'indiscipline, it has taco thought necessary to order r regiimut of horse ; and one or foot soldiers, to be quartered here ; they or.: expected to at rive in a few days. The Commander-ie-Ch:el set oat at one o'clock this iviermng to Carlstadt, to suppress the insur rectiou atnengst the troops that are in a rebellious state in that neighbourhood.
