,Jrnplate cessation of all diplomatic intercourse

testing on tl.e part of the King of SwEntN
great, it is said, he has orclired his Minister to
the Prussit•t capital without even notifying
!furore. Some of the articles. which we
translated, respe&ing these two powers, coo-
t rumour for some days prcva:ent, that the
of Swat's has sold the Province of Swedish
raniato the Emperor of Resst A. The article
the head and date of " Banks of the Meiti,

441 of that nature and effe3. The withdraw.
therefore, of the Swedish troops from tlsat pa::
'omcrinia is pitiably to make way for its otos-
by a Russian army ; an event certainly of

importance, as it must embarrass Prussia much
than the preceding state of things in Pume.
of which the Court of Berlin complained.
