SWEDEN.

Just as the last Courier came away froth Stockholm,
v.'hiclt was the day after the Mail set out, a tomiriu-
nication was received by the telegraph across the
Gulf, that the fortress of Seeaborg had been attacked
by the kussiani;.but that they were driven back 'with
great slaughter. This was known at Gottenburgh at
the sailing of the last packet. We have seen 'lt pri
vate letter that mentions the fact,--ThattrAtot dune.
circumstantially.
As long as this fornic..ss remains in the hands or the
Swedes, Finland is not lost. It is here the King
Meant to land his army as soon as the ice is gohe.
The garrison of Sveaborg consists of 7000 men, un-
der the command oit the old and experienced General
CRONSTEAT. The fortress is provisioned for four
months, owing to the foresight of Baron STEDINGH,
the Swedish Ambassador, at St. Petersbuth, who
found means to acquaint the Commandant of the ap-
proaching dander. This brave General has assured
the King, that he shall defend it, if even attacked by
the whole Ruisian army.

To shew the zeal of the Swedes in the honourable
conflict in which they are engaged, we need but men.
tion two faits :—The sailors having been ordered to
attend at the offices in the respective districts, where
they are registered, the wish of the King was com-
municated to them by old naval officers, when, With=
out askiOg what their pay would be, they volunteered
all to a man. The navy was thus compleated in a
fortni►t.

The levy of all young men from eighteen to twenty-
five years, constituted no less than 280000 met; since
many whe were above twenty-five under-rated their
age, and others insisted on their right to serve their
country. This number being far more than is wanted,
or the country could well support, the King has been
Aliged to publish a Proclamation, which we have
perused, stating how many., and no more, each Go--
vernancy shall furnish ; and also those who are on
no account to be enrolled, stich is Students at the
Universities, Burghers, Journeymen Printers, and
Mechanics.

The* Voluntens are now training in all tiarts of
the country; and such is the public spirit, that many
attend the drill who are not suffered to enlist.

CARLSCRONA, APRIL 7.
" A frigate lies ready here to take the Imperial
Ambassador and other distinguished Foreigners over
to Palau, where some say Baron STEDINGII will ar-
rive, to take his passage for Sweden : in the mean time
I M. ALos.nrs will be detained in Stockholm until the
Swedish Ambassador is safely landed here. Yesterday
a Gentleman arrived from Baron STEDINGH, via Po-
land., after a journey of six weeks, from St. Peters-
burgh. He brings no written dispatches. The dis-
tresses in the countries he had passed throng; are be-
yond description. The French are universally de-
,tested—but none dare to speak. in Yetersburgh the
ferment is at its height—a distinguished female heads
the English party. The Gentleman, who is -a Haw-
