EAO,II THE .SII'EDI.SII P.ll)EitS.

S'rocnitekm, Anti& 9.-7YesterdaY morning his
'Majesty received an express froM Count Ict.iNds
Fort, one of the Lords of the Kingdom,..and General
.in Chief in Finland &c. with a Report, of which the
following are Eitreas, dated Head-Quarters at
l'edersore, March a t
" Ihe state of this. Country has, since my last,
been_altered in a -remarkable and tinexpetied man-
ner. The Column which followed the Army, and
which has continually troubled our rear-guard as far
as the neighbourhood of \Vasa, has not made its ap-
pearance since our arrival at Toby.
" Count CROZ4STEDT reported, on the 23d, from
Pulkela, that the column which had operated against
him in Savolax, had retreated from Coupeo, through
Rautalambi. It seems, therefore, that when, in his
verbal report to me, and which I stated im my last
report to your Majesty, he mentioned that the Bri-
gade was harassed as far as Pulkela, it must only
have been by light troops, who have afterwards re-
treated.
" Confidential information has been received, that
the column, which went through Bautalatubi, Sat-
gersit and ,liarStula, has proceeded to Lappo; and
that the column under the conkmand of Colonel
ADLERCREUTZ) has pYoceeded on towards Illinola
and Storkgro.
" It seems that the Enemy's columns have all of
them dire&ed their march towards Wasa. Whether.
it was their plan there to surround the army; or
whether the Enemy is satisfied
_with occupying that
part of Finland, which is to the south between Con- -
peo and \Vasa, is a difficult matter to decide, as well
as whether the mistake, which appears to have been
made iii the plan, or in the execution thereat, must
be-attributed to.th`e first framing of it, or arises from
want of provisions,.&c. In the mean time, Slhere is
ne doubt hilt that the army will joio the troops of
Savolax. Orders have been sent to Count CaRN-
STEW; who, agreeable to his last report, is at 'lien-
borg and Lemmingo, to. proceed with a
.considerable
part of his men to Fransela, from whence the road
leading to Braliesta&Mhy be protetied, and to send
the remainder
,of his, net to 4etnininga., And if
road to Idcnsaltno be properly reconoitered, the
joining of the troops, Cannot
,be prevented or hin•
dered by the Enemy. I have (asfar as I have been
able) paid with ready money for every thing for the
army, with a:v;iew to economise the provisions, and
to make it cootie difficultfor.the Enemy to get any."

STOCKHOLM, A.PitiL, 15.

Crib REPORT. ,

COURT OF KING'S TIENCII, A rkii.-26.

•
BISli V. DECULMENT.
•
This was an a&ion for differences in -fr;insaflions

in the Stock Exchange, amounting to V.OOOl. and
,upwards.
Sir VICARY Gisn's stated, that the Plaintiff was an
• eminent stock-broker; and the Defendant a dentist of
celebrity. kr„p was also a foreigner, by
• the art of making artificial teeth, amassed considerable
property, he fancied, by applying him-qelf to the art of
stock-jobbing, he should be - able at once to. obtain
great wealth. He therefore desired the Plaintiff to
purchaSe him scrip to the amount Of 40,0001. ituagin-'
ing as Lord Landerdale W5B then.negotiating with the
French Government that a Peace- would take place,
and he should becoMe a -great gainer by the specu-
! lation ; the result, however, proved the reverie, and

.finding himself a loser instead of a gainer, he refused,
to pay the differences at the'settling day, and the
Plaintiff was fixed with the loss. The Learned
Counsel added, that he should prove the transaaions
to have been bona lifie purchases, and should be en-
titled to a • rerdi6t. • • "

• The Committee of Convoys have, within a few
days, bought five ShilSs, which arc to be armed and
put to sea at the expellee of this Committee, fir the
Trote6tion of the Merchantmen in the Baltic. The
_news from the Western Army (the Head-quarters
:were :lastly at Eda-Skans) contains the most salls••
ladory of its,:present good condition.- The
General, Baron GusTAT Makuutca AUMSSLDT is
Commander-in-Chief; and his. military experience,
his. personal • bravery, and:the activity of his, mind,
give us the best hopes of -a brilliant campaign, and
of bearing of this Army having given proots of the
:talent valour of the Swedes. ,The. spieit is, very
good in the soldiers,.and the Officers :go to the
frontiers with a strong desire to signalize themselves.
Courage, and an,' enthusiastic Mil:Won for their
King and • Country, seem to have acquiied fresh
vigour within a fewi mouths. This, added to a
pretty general. convidion entertained by the common
people, that Swedes never can be beaten by Dates,
give us reason to hope the best in that quarter. One
detachment is commanded by Major-General Baron.
VEGESACK, a' man of ,the most undaunted courage,
of which he gave repeated proofs during the late
war-with Russla.

The nephew of the Plaintiff proved the orders given
by the Defendant for the purchases of' 'the • stock,
and several stuck-brokers were called 'to 'prove she
nature oft be transanaions. Considerable ceoluslon,
however, ensned. as to whether the bargains were
purchases outright, or only • bargains for time ; and
as the 'ono is legal and the other illegal, it was agreed
to leave the case to reference on that point. If legal;
then the Plaintiff ti.) have a vcrdio c if not, then to
be nonsuited.

THE Timvrac.—The Two Gentlemen of Verona
was -represented again last night at Covent-garden
Theatre,' and we must again testify our pleasure at
the revival of a play which may. tend to restore she
taste of the public for the sterling merits of the Bri-
tish draMa, to rescue us from any importations from
the.gloomy philosophy and mischievous sentiment of
the German School, as well as from the wild buffoon-
ery of the present race of writers in this Country.
The performance last night was throughout highly
respectable. KamaLa was uniformly entitled to
high approbation for the feeling, spirit, and energy
which he displayed in Valentine. With the liberality
that always marks a superior mind, he attended to
the hint respeding his manner of receiving the Dare's
reproaches, and only exhibited 'an air olgicame,
dejeftion, and entreaty. • POPE' again acquitted hini.seif
ably in Proteus. Miss Smrrn, Miss NORTON,'MUN-
DEN,.. LastoN, and BLANCHARDJ all contributed
.powerfully t'o the general interest and effea of the
piece. It was observable that the audience were of
a better description than usually attend modern
trash, and were much more judicious in the allot-
ment of applause.
• •A Dublin Paper saps—" A fow nights since the
'rafters supporting the gallery of"the Little Tlutatre,
in Stafford-street, gave way during the performance,
and, the entire carnet() the ground... The scene was
distressingly
,whirnsiCal ; such' a confusion of legs,
faces, 'capS, hats, sticks, bonnets, &c. 'vas perhaps
never before seen ; we have not heard that any seri f
ous accident was the consequence."
• FARQUHAit, the justly admired comic Nivr,iter, used
to say, that his estate' lay within the cii-eurnfrpnee
of his hat.

There has hardly ever appeared so rapid a declen-
SIM of char titer as what the world has seen jn 'the
condua of the present EOl/PZlWit' of Rus.Sta. When
he brat asiumed the chilies of his , high station,
mankind thought they .beheld in him" one of the
main props of Civilized life, destined to rescue the op-
pressed and insulted States of Europe from the grasp
of a Tyrant whose ambition. has no hounds. Now
we see him sunk into the mean submissive instro—
relent of that Tyrant, sharing with him in. the spoils
of his Frignd, and Ally the KING of PIItiSSIA, and
submitting to the basest arts of .treacberrand cor-
ruption, in order to accomplish the ruin of the KING
Of SWUL/lIN, 'who has rshewn such proofs of
va-
lour, dignity, perseverance, honour, and fortitude,
pi would have been an example for Monarchs, even in
the b6t of times. From the KtNcs ctt SWEDEN every
thing heroic, patriotic, and disinterested may be ex-
peeted; but unfortunately nothing but the reverse can
now be supposect.ta mark the career of the Monarch
who is hi, near relation, and, for his own sake, ought
to be hisfirmesi friend, hot who is content to appear
as his most bitter enemy, and ti e despicable tool of
•a man who would be glad to ettett the total ruin of
both. How are the miyity

In Carlscrona the most vigorous means are taken

dom.
On the Island of -Aland,. lying between Finland
and Sweden, but nearer the shore of Finland, several
tires have. been seen, arising from the Russians burn-
ing their 'Magazines, &c. on leaving- the Island.
From the Northern part of Firrland, too, the Rus-
sians are retiring towards the Southern parts of the
Grand Duchy ; and it is not improbable that -nor
troops may be able to defend these Northern Pro-
vinces against a new invtisiOn.
The Russian Envoy Count Von TARRACH is to
leave Stockholm in a few days. Hu goes to bads-
. crona ; from which place he will embark on board a
Swedish Ship of War on his passage to. Germany.
The winter has been very hard till now-it is
but a few days since the ice has begun to dimliiish
considerably. '
