HAMBURGH MAIL.

STOCKHOLM, MAY 11.-it is reported that negotia-
tions have been commenced with Count Lowenhjelm,
the King's ambassador at Vienna, who has come home
on leave of absence to induce him to take the post of
Minister of Foreign Affairs. It is said that Count
Bjornjerna, the Swedish ambassador at the Court of
London, may be shortly expected here. It seems that
at length after the lapse of a year the Estates will meet
this week in a pleno plenorum to receive the Royal an-
swer to the memorial of the Estates respecting various
changes in the laws. There is reason to fear that the
Government will refuse its sanction to the most impor-
tant resolutions in this respect ; for instance, the exten-
sion of the right of representation in the Estate of the
peasants.
NEW STRELITZ, MAY 12.—The preparations for the
marriage of Princess Caroline to the Crown Prince of
Denmark gives great animation to our city. All the
public buildings are being repaired. A considerable ad-
dition will be made to the Palace, and likewise to the re-
sidence of the Minister. The town hall is entirely pulled
down, and will be rebuilt before the marriage, in a
new state.

lIANOVER, MAY 16.—We hear that the Government
will be able to support, by a resolution of the . German
Diet, the large extraordinary grants which it will re-
quire from the next assembling of the Estates, which
will tend greatly to shorten the discussion on those grants.
His Majesty the King, it is said, will go this summer
to Ems ; and, if we may give credit to a Rhenish
Gazette, will pay a visit to Prince Metternich at
Johannisburg.
FROM THE ELBE, MAY 9.—lt has lately been ob-
served by the public journals that the Russian newspapers
are not permitted to communicate anything respecting
the proceedings of the Russian Provincial Assemblies.
On the authority of private letters from Warsaw, we can
add that the columns of the Prussian State Gazette,
which report the proceedings of the Assemblies, are
painted over with black before the journals are delivered
in Poland (and doubtless in Russia too). This is a com-
mon proceeding in Russia with productions of the foreign
press.—Haniburgh Papers, May 18.
