ANSWER OP THE DANISH AMBASSADOR.

The underfigned, Envoy Extraordinary from
his DANISH MAJESTY, will tranfmit this day with
regret to his Court the official communication he
had the honour to receive yefterday from Lord
GRENVILLE, upon the fubje6l of the embargo laid
upon the Danifh veflels in the Britifh ports.
While he waits until the orders of the KING his
mailer, relative to this oftenfive meafure, arrive,
he cannot avoid proteffing againft the validity of
the motives alledged in the faid note, and againft
the jullice of the confequences, which the Britifh
Government has conceived it could accredit again(]
the Court of Copenhagen.
A difference which arofe between the Courts of
Peterfburgh and London during the Negotiation,
defined folely to the proteetion of a perfect neutra-
lity in the North, has no re!ation whatever with
that ; and as his Imperial Majefty of all the Ruf-
fias has caufed to be publiflied a formal declaration
on the fubjea of the motives of the meafures adopt-
ed on his part, Denmark finds in it a complete re-
futation of the argument advanced by the Britifh
Mnifter.

With refped to the principles of the Northern
Powers refpeding the facred rights of neutrality,
they have not been abandoned. Ridlia, in her bel-
ligerent quality, has only fufpended the applica-
tion, and Denmark and Sweden have, by their con-
vention of the 27th March, 1794 (officially com-
municated to all the Belligerent Powers), declared
in the face of all Europe, that their fyftem of pro-
tedion in favour of innocent commerce was invari-
able.
Hence it follows that his DANISH Mart sr v only
now renews ties which have not ccafed to exill.—
The underfigned thinks himfelf, in consequence,
atithorifed to prote ft, formally, againft proceedings
of fo hoftile a nature, which the King, his mailer,
could not but have confidered as an open and pre-
meditated provocation, had not the communica-
tion been accompanied with the atTurance that his
BRITANNIC MAJESTY fill defircs to maintain good
harmony with Denmark ; a defire which his'
DANISH MAJESTY has conftantly profeffed, and of
which he has given the moil unequivocal proofs.
The underfigned, who for a number of years
has felicitated lumfelf upon being the interpreter of
the unalterable fentiments of tilt King his matter,
is deeply hurt that falfe imprellions have juft me-
naced the
_good underilanding between the two
Crowns. He willies that he could Rill be the in-
ftrument of an explanation calculated to do away
Injurious doubts, and to prevent incalculable con-
fequences to the interelts of the reciprocal Powers.
It is with thefe fentiments, and with thole of
perfeet confideration, that he has the honour to
renew to his Excellency Lord GRENVILLL the
homage of his refped. (Signed)

PARIS, FEBRUARY 6.

His Majefly the EMPEROR of Res StA is fending

He is accompanied by the Count-010r of State,
NORIROw, Counfellor OUBRIL MAGNIIRI, Coun-
fellor of the Court, and the two Aides-de-camp of

Mar guard, has fet out for the frontiers to receive
Count KaeirsctiEw, in order that he may accom-
pany him to Paris: guards of honour have been
polled in all thofe places through which the Am-
baffador is about to pafs.—Oftial journal.
Count de KALITSCHEW, whom the EMPEROR of
Russia fends as Ambaffador to Paris, is of a fa-
mily highly diftinguifhed in Ruflia, and connceted
with the mot} illufirious families of that cotin-
try. The title of Count has been conferred on
him only fince the acceiliun of PAUL 1. about two
I years ago. He is now 45 years of age. After
having vilitee all Italy, he came to Paris at the
!time when Prince Gaerrirm was Ambaffador
from Raja, and refidcd there attached to the
Embatry. On his return to Petcrlburgli, he was
appointed a Gentleman of the Bed-chamber about
178 o; and after that period he devoted himfelf
to the diplomatic line. In the year 1784 he was
made Minifler Plenipotentiary at the Hague, and
was prefent there during the Revolution of 1787.
He quitted the Hague in order to difcharge the
fame fonaions at the Court of Berlin, and remain-
ed in that city till the death of the EMPRLs. When
Count RASOLIMOWSKI ceafed to be Ambaffador at
Vienna, the Estrraot appointed Count KALIT-
SCHEN to fucceed him ; and after his departure
from that Court, he had orders to remain in the
interior of Germany, that he might be near the
theatre of bufinefs. On his return to Ruflia, the
EMPEROR as a mark of his confidence coniirred on
him the office of Vice-Chancellor in the room of
Count PANIN.

morning by a Telegraphic Difpatch, that he was
certain the Englifh-had not obfcrved the depar-
ture of the French fleet, commanded by Admiral
GANTHEALNE.

A letter from Ratifbon, dated February 3, rays
" Some difficulties it is Paid had arifen on the part
of the court of Berlin, in regard to certain clinks
in the Convention for an Armed Neutrality en-
tered into by the Northern Powers, but, in eonfe-
quence of reprcfentations made by the Court of
Peterfburgh, it appears, that Praia will accede
•to it entirely."
