suspend the building of the new Palace for the Rus.

was sent at the same time to the headquarters of
General Benningsen. It is hoped, however, that the

STOCKHOLM, SEOVEMBER
Under the reign of Gustavus Adolphus it is
well known that the Press lay under great restraint
in Sweden; the Constitution of 1809, indeed, gaye,
the liberty of the Press, and it seemed really niif
literature, which had been long in a profound lethakgy,
was going to awake to new life. But the Ordonnance
of the 16th July, 1812, again limited this freedom so
much, that scarcely any thing was left. of it, and
since then, the constraint of the Press, though under

altered forms, has increased from year to year—
thence the Swedish literature has again fallen into a
lamentable state, and the plan which was formed
some years ago to hold a general Book Fair for the
three Scandinavian kingdoms, every year, at Gotten-
burgh, though it received the approbation of the
Gurernrnent, will hardly be accomplished for a long
time to come, because only one of these kingdoms,
namely, Denmark, could furnish sufficient materials
towards such a fair.

PRUSSIA. SEPTEMBER 10.
The circumstances relative to the printing of the
Memoir of Colonel Von Massenbach, are (according
to the Aremiggse kiiong, No. 23 ) as tollows:
" M. V. Massenbach, as is well known, has pub-
lished three parts of his Memoirs ; when the fourth
vat was already in the press. he wrote so the King,l
in a fit of repentance, and offered, on the publisher's
being indemnified, to take to himself the whole edi-
tion, as far as it was complete, and to suppress it.
This was dose, because it could be done without much
trouble. Now that M. V. Massenbach flattered him-
self that be had obtained great political consequence
in the States of Wurtembcrg, be thought be could
awe our Government by his literary reputation; and
offered the fourth pan, which had been already put.
chased at his own application. together with four
other parts, for the sum of 11,000 Louis-d'ors. He
affirmed that a Lqndon bookseller bad offered him
this sum for the manuscript.
is If M. Von Massenbach persuades himself that
the Prussian State owes him particular acknowledg-
ments for services performed, we can only conjecture
that the waters of the Ucker, on the bankseif which
he was unable, in October, 1816, to distinguish be-
tween right and left, must have had the effect of the
waters of Lethe. We do not think ourselves at liberty
to say mote. The accusation against M. Von Mat.
,eubacb was, as we know already, conwhenced when
his :norm offer to sell, as 4ir MSS. for 11,009)ouis
tors, was received by tbe Government. He may
print Memoirs, Galleries of Prussian Characters, His-
tories of his own Times. &c. at his pleasure. Accor-
ding to the opinion and the wish of our nation, the
scribblers of such Memoirs, Galleries, firebrands, Ike.
should have been more severely chastised ; we, bow-
eller, are of the opinion of the Government, that they
are to be despised* but if, contrary to his oath, he
publishes plans, documents, and accounts, which were
entrusted to him as official secrets, be will not escape
the law against traitors to their country."
