, HANOVER, MAY
Our Journal, coiled Hannoversehe fischrkhien,
begins its umber of yesterday with the following
article .
.

," Foreign Journals have lately made it their
business on spread a report that his Majesty ,(our
Sovereign) had an intention to marry, her Royal
Highness the Crown Princess of Demmer k..datagh-
ter .of 'the ,ICtug of Dennutrk t it is stated also in
these pawns that negociiitiuna were on foot, the ob-
ject of which was an eschange or the kingdom of
Hanover for the Danish Islands. These reports,
.calculated to deceive . the public, ever pager
after news, whether true or false, end which prevail
.till another subject can be employed for the same
purpose; have been inserted it' German Papers,
and the end is attained of deceiving the public,
and perhaps excitiug alarm in the minds of those
whO are led by the positive manlier in which those
tales are brought farword, to forget for an instant
that. au exchmage like that in question is as contrary
to the treaties between the European Powers as to
the well-knoien sentiments of his Majesty. The
recollertion of these sentiments isadoubtless suffi-
cient to remove all apprehension from the. mind of
every Hanoverian. However, that not the slightest
doubt may remain, we can affirm from sothe,utio
authority that both the Itbove pieces of news are
unhanded."
