We this day received German Papers, brought by
the Gottenburgh Mail. The news they Cciiitelts-'
wiJi bo found somewhat interesting. The Kill at
SWIMEN is much indisposed, and the Caowx Palr4cs.,
(Thtitsadotte) is to proceed to Sweden, if it shall
be found that his MAJESTY'S health does riot AC.)
prove in a degree to enable hiM to bear theiveight.
of the duties of his high officel—it is rnmou,ietli..
that a Treaty of Amity, offensive and defensivevis,
concluded between Avarua. and FRAWeEi the ohs
ject of which is a combined attack upon Russia.
This may be premature, but it is what will tap-.
pen in the future ordinary course of events. Mean.
time it seems' that war has actually, comnituseed
betwe-n Persia and Russia. And aii.this time, the
Emperor Asmar:ma is carrying on hiCimpolltle
war against Turkey, wearing out his moire:if Of
men and money, when he has neither to:lpare, and.
. .
when a powerful and relentless enemy is preparing
for his destruction'. Bow fortunate is NAMILEOIC
iti the policy of his enemies! His own does not do
half walla for hiM, although guided by one dike
most subtle and powerful. of Conquerors that ever
existed.-.-We refer our 'Readers, for. thelnether
