" Most Venerable PLATON,I have received
your letter, and with the same the image of the holy
Sergins. The first I have received with pleasure,
as coming from a Shepherd of the. Church, who is'
so highly respected by me ; and the latter With
veneration. The sanctified image of the holy Pp
tector of the Russian Armies I have commanded
to be given to the armed population of Moscow,
which are training for the defence of ,their native
country ;—may he tbtain it through his interces-
sions before the throne of God ! and may he; by
his prayers, lengthen the term of your years,
which are ornamented with honour and renown

" Recommending myself to your prayers, I re-
main with affection, •

CP ALEXANDER."

/STOCKHOLM, Ann. 31.—His Royal Highness
the Crown Prince having on the 26th instant con-
tinued his voyage with a favourable wind, towards
evening discovered the outer rocks at a distance,
but as the wind began to increase, and it being
impossible to enter the narrow Channel. In the
dark, the frigate was obliged to, keep cruising
the whole night off the Channel in rather gtormy
Weather. On the mprning
_of. the 27th passed Uto
Beacon, and continued her course with a favour-
able wind to Beckholm, off Abo, where, at half-
past two o'clock in the afternoon, the frigate came
to anchor ; after which his Royal Highness con-
tinued his passage up the. river, partly in the
Amadis yacia, and partly in a Russian barge, up
to the city.

On the 'frigate's arrival at the first Fjord, the
Comraandant of the Marine at Abo, Count Von
HEYDEN, came on board to receive his Royal
highness. A Russian sloop of war saluted, and
manned` her yards. All the vessels in the river
flagged. GeLerals Foci' and DEmEpoFy. came off
to compliment his Royal Highness ,on behalf of
the Emperor.

ceived at the bridge by the Governor Gen. Baron
Van STEINIIUL, with the garrison, clergy, and ma-
gistracy. The Lieut. Gen. Ktrosow, Adjt.-Gen.
to his Majesty the Emperor, and Colonel CAZER-
NIEKOFF were likewise presen,t to meet his Royal
Highness.

Scarce had his Royal Highness reached the en-
trance of the rooms prepared for him ,in the
residence of the Governor of the province, in
the yard of which a guard of honour, both ca-
valry and infantry, was drawn up, before his Ma-
jesty the Russian Emperor suiprised his Royal
Highness with a visit. After a long private con-
ferrence with the Crown Prince, his. Imperial Ma-

Highness's residence at Abo pleasant. The city
Was illuminated on the evening of the'27th.

the 30th, or at latest on the morning of the 31st,
so that his Royal Highness's arrival at the capital
may be expected in a few days:

We have .cOntinticd our extracts from the Hali-
fax' Papers that arrived yesterday ; but, from the
great press of temporary matter, we have no Tooth
to make any comments upon them.

A report was circulated yesterday, that.a ves-
sel, called tike General Washington, had arrived at
Liverpool, with an account that the President had
called au extraordinary Meeting of the Congress,
and that
,a resolution had been passed, revoking..
the DeelaratiOn of War. The whole "of ihe report
is a complete fabrication, no such vessel having
arrived at Liverpool,
