GOTTENBL'RGH, APRIL 5.

A letter has been received here to-day from Gene-
ral Armfeldt, desiring that the greatest respect and
attention might be paid to the British subjects in the
town. A similar order has been received by the
Commandant, desiring every protection might be af-
forded to the English ships in the river, as it was the
wish of the existing Government to continue in friend-
ship with England.
APRIL 7.—General Armfeldt arrived here this af-
ternoon to take his new command he was received
by the troops (3000 in number) with repeated hazzas.
The Stockholm Part arrived at noon this day. By
a private letter we are informed, that M. D'Alopeus,
the Russian Envoy to Stockholm, to settle the terms
of the armistice, had only stopt 48 hours, and that
he was instructed to listen to no terms of peace,unless
the Ports of Sweden were shut against England,
APRIL 1 o.—The Messenger Parsons arrived here, in
a gun-brig, from England, on the Bth instant, late in
the evening,and proceeded to Stockholm early the fol-
lowing morning. This day arrived five mails, also a
Swedish Courier with dispatches from England; and
theMessen_ger Mares,for whom much anxiety was felt,
arrived at the same time. An Officer was sent this
morning from General Armfeldt to Sir S. Hood,
with assurances that it was the intention of the exist-
ing Government to continue its friendship with Eng-
ing, and to request he would permit the vessels which
bad lately come from England to proceed to Gotten-
burgh. The result of this interview has not trans-
pired. The Admiral has detained the convoy lately
arrived from England, and it is believed it is his in-
tention to order them back without unloading their
cargoes.

PRIVATE LETTERS—STOCKHOLM, MARCH 29.
A more timely Revolution could not have taken
place than the one we have witnessed in this country
The Russians were prepared to make their attack at
three points, viz. Aland, Umea, and Torneo, all at
once. At Torneo they drove back the Swedes ;
Umea they took possession of; and the fate of Aland
you have already heard.

The terms which the Russians will impose on this
country, must, of course, be the more severe, which
we shall probably soon learn. In the meanwhile, the
armistice is extended to the divisions at Umea and
Torneo. Two more couriers set off this day to Paris.
APRIL 2.—The ci-devant Russian Minister to this
Court (M. Alopeus), arrived here the night before
last. He is to leave Stockholm again in two days to
rejoin his Master, who is said to be still at Abo.—
The object of his mission appears to have been rs rrly
to arrange the terms of the armistice. We have to-
day official intelligence that the Russians who had
taken possession of Umea have returned across the
Auarken to Vasa. They have also retired from
land, leaving only a garrison on the island ; but
with all these pacific overtures from Russia to Swe-
den, not a symptom has been shewn of returning har-
mony between Russia and England. On the con-
trary, Romanzoff is returned to St. Petersburgh, and
placed in full possession of all his former power, and.,
pursues his old system of hostility to Great Britain.
M. Alopeus declined seeing or meeting the English
Minister here ; which if there had been the least wish
to commence any friendly negociation between the
two countries, would have afforded an admirable op-I
portunity. _ _ _

APRIL 4.—M. Alopeus leaves Stockholm to-night,
on his return to join the Emperor at Abo or St. Pe.
tersburgh. There is not the most distant prospect oft
an accommodation between Russia and England.
