Therefore he did not remonstrate against the Expedition to
Copenhagen. He asserts that he was notprivy to that ex-
pedition, but at the same time vindicates it as a measure
which all subsequent events justify.
The readiness of our Ministry to accede to the wishes o f
Sweden, to render the Baltic a dose sea, free from the ir.-
trusiou of men of war and privateers, does them credit.
The Paris Papers, up to the 26th of March, from which
we have given extracts, under the head of Foieign News,
contain the regulations which the French Emperor has made
concerning the Jews. The regulations are not of a nature
particularly favourable to that people ; though they con-
tam some distinctions in favour of such Jews as appear
have conducted themselves uniformly well. These Papers
contain also au account of the seizure of M. ALOPFUO, the
Russian Minister at Sweden : a step which is severely
blamed by the Monileur : but for which the note of the
t.wedish Minister, M. D'Enacwirriciss, gives strong reasons.
The Monileur goes on to state, that France has declared
war against Sweden, whose coasts are stated to be in a
most defenceless state. We find that nothing has been done
at Boulogne, Dunkirk, or Ostend, beyond the reparation
of the works that have been dama-led by Hoods. Let-
ters from Rome had arrived at Paris, declaring that the
troops of the Pope were incorporated with the French.
From Milan, we learn, that one of our Squadrons
blockades the Russian Fleet in Trieste, and that Levina,
on the coast of Dalmatia has been occupied by an English
force.

Accounts from Holland state, that a loan has been open-
ed at Amsterdam, under the direction of the principal
Merchants and Bankers, for fitting out small armed vessels.
The first subscriptions, it is said, amounted to 500,0001. and
the books were to close at the beginning of the present
month.
