alty of the Sovereign, whose intention itis thus at-
tempted to calumniate, and the nature of thefrelatiens
which subsist between Denmark and Sweden, suffici-
ently prove the falsity of that insidious assertion.
, But we shall feel great satisfaction to beaudiorited
by his Swedish Majesty hhtuelf, to answer by a'fbr-
mal denial an insinuation more injurious to him, than
it is to us. This, Sir, is the only motive. which in-
chiced me to demand of you a frank and positive ex-
planation on this subject. , .
.• I take leave to request you will send it me hi, the
bearer of this letter, Mr. de-Holsten, Lieutenant of
the Royal Navy.
I feel happy m having an opportunity of calling
me to your.

, surance of my high consideration.

Lieutenant Holsten, the letter which your excellency.
has addiessed to me, dated the 17th October.
As the duties of my place do not allow into to de—,
viate from the regular mode of official. communica-
tion between the two Courts, your excellency wills
permit me to restrict myself entirely to acknowledgee
the receipt of your letter, and to express to you t.

happiness I feel in having the• opportilluty of reniiv.t
ing to you the assurance of, the high consideraticii
with which I have the honour to be,. &c.

Baron Taube, Charge d'Affaires of his Swedish Majesty.. •
Ki 1, November 5, 1807.!
The annexed copy will inform Baron Taube of the
object of a communication, which the, undersigned,
Minister of State, thought it right to address to
ron Wetterstedt, First Secretary of the Cabinet of his
Swedish Majesty. The latter having judged a mode
of communication inadmissible, which, from the ab-
sence of the Swedish Embassy, and the interruption
of direct correspondence with Stockholm, appeared
to the undersigned the only way, and; at the same
time, the speediest and most authentic mode of com-
munication. It only remains to request Baron Taube
will have the goodness to express to his Court t
wish contained in the Note addressed to the aforesaid
Baron. It is of material importance for the Danish
Government to be enabled to refute, in an authentic
manner, an invidious charge, clearly destined to
compromise a Sovereign, whose loyalty is above all
suspicion, to make him share in the odium, which at-
taches to a conduct equally atrocious and perfidious,
l•t-ctanding between Sweden

and to produce a
and Denmark.
The undersigned requests Baron Taube to accept
the assurance of his high consideration.

Keil. November 24, 1807.
The undersigned has not failed to bring to the.
knowledge of the King, his master, the contents of
the Note which his excellency Baron Bernstorff
dressed to him, the sth of Novemberlast, and of the
copy which accompanied the same.
It is by order of his Court that the undersigned
hastens to declare to the Danish Minister, that all ex.-
planation with regard to the note above.mentioned
becomes superfluous, his Majesty being of opinion that
he ought solely to be judged by his actions, which he
shall always know how to juctiiy. - •
The undersigned having the honour to present this
answer to Count Bernstorff, Director-of the •Depart-
ment of Foreign Affairs, begs leave at the same time
to repeat the assurance of his high consideration.

Note addressd by Count Bernstorff, Minister of State, to Baron
Taube.

Kiel, December 4, 1807
The undersigned, Director of the Department of
Foreign Affairs, has had the honour to receive the
note, which Baron Taube had the goodness to ad•
dress to him on the 24th November, in order to de-
clare that the Court of Stockholm deems it superfluous
to give the demanded explanation to the disposition
which the English Minister has thought himself autho-
rised to send his Swedish Majesty with regard to Den-
mark. The Danish Government thought to render a
' service to the Court of Sweden, by offering an oppor-
tunity to refute a charge which it felt inclined to con-
sider as calumnious, and which, so kcmg as it remains
undenied, connot but compromise him against whotn
it is preferred. The said Government is the more
surprised at the refusal of the explanation solicited, as
this refusal is but too liable to be considered as'a tacit
acknowledgment of the intentions which were an-
nounced to him in an official manner by the intimate
ally of Sweden.
And these pretended intentions being already
hostile against Denmark, she was the more of opinion
that she owed it to herself to demand from the Swe•
dish Government a• denial- thereof, without waiting
that actions should furnish the necessary information
on the subject.
The reasons which occasioned the above demand
existing still in all its force, the undersigned is autho-
rized to expect here, and •requests Baron Taube will
have the goodness to support it at his Court.
He has the honour to repeat, on this occasion, the
! assurance of his high consideration.

Kiel, December 21, reoi.
The undersigned has brought the Note
to the ~noW-
ledge of the King his Master, which Count Bernsp4ff
had the goodness to addreis to hips the 4th of Decem-
ber, touching the explanation required by the Coup
of Copenhagen, with regard to a pretended
ation of intentions entertained by Sweden:. to occupy
' the Island of Zealand with Swedish troops.

• .'J...

The King avoided once to explain himself on this
subject ; but, as the Danish Government required an
answer, the undersigned.is ordered to declare in an
official mannerohat, had his Majesty judged it neces-
sary to occupy Zealand with his troops,
,loindy with
those of his ally, he should have done it ; and the
Kink wishes that-he may never find himself in the
case to regret that he acted otherwise.
The undersigned has the honour to renew to Count
Bernstorff the assurance of his high consideration.

The 10th ult. the battery of the Three Crowns
stopped a vessel under Russian colours, and which
had been furnished with false papers, attesting that
'she came from a ne t al port (the real papers being
hid in a false ham, made of tin, and placed in a locker
iii the Captain's cabin), a Danish sailor; 'who was on
board against his will, discovered the deception to
the Officer sent on board, and told him that the ship
came from London. Her cargo, consisting of ker-
seymeres, pieces of handkerchiefs, &c.. is valued at
.100,000 rix-,dollars.
• There are again near Gottenburgh four English
Mips, which design to interrupt the navigation be-

expect the return of four ships richly laden, estimated
at the value of 2,155,600 rix-dollars, Danish cur-
rency. The Danes manifest the greatest attachment
to their King and Country. The individuals emulate
each other • in sending considerable patriotic gifts.—
