It is stated in some of the late accounts received
from the North, that, during the continuance of the
late frost, the King of Denmark received ore from
BUONAPARTE to attempt the Invasion of Sweden,
by marching across the Sound ; and it is added, that
sin army.of 24,000 Danes, and 16,cm Polish auxi-
liaries, ,were assembled for that purpose ; but, in
6nsequence of the sudden thaw, the Expedition
was abandoned. We believe that some preparations
were made in Zealand for an Expedition across the
Sound, but certainly nothing like a forCe of 40,000
men was colleted.

We are this day enabled to lay before our Readers
an immense mass of foreign intelligence, which we
have extra ted from Drench Papers to the 25th tilt.
which reached, town last night,, and Ilamburgh
Journals, to the 28th uh. which we received this
morning.:. The length of our, extraas prevents us
from commenting at any length upon them.
There seems to be now very little doubt that hos-
tilities are on the point. of commencing between
France and Austria. The French troopS. in Ger-
many are all in motion, and reinforcements' are
airching from' the North of Italy to join them.
.Austria, on the other hand, is making the utmost
exertions to meet the contlo. It is said, and it
would give us the most sincere' satisfaction to find it
continued, that the Emperor of Russia has mani-
fisted the•most friendly disposition towards the £m-
peror of Austria, and that it is probable that the
friendly tel.,tions between Russia And France are
likely
,to oe broken off.
Thegreates4 exertions are making to it out a fermi-
deble naval t rce iu Flushing and Antwerp, and it is
stated that a Fleet of i s sail will be ready •to sail
Gum these ports in the Spring.' This Fleet is to be.
joined by a Russian Squadron, and some formidable
naval,,caup,de-main attempted against this century.
, The trench Papers are not very impatient. The
114oniteur contains some very angry striaures upon
the Thanks.. voted by the British Parliament to the
Officers wh ) served in Portugal.
