of Adiiiiral Saumarez seems to relate to the
plot so fertunitely detected, and at the heed

rity. Happily this project of a few ambitious, in.
dividuals completely failed; and the Diet, *h
osittitig, rejected the idea of such a plan .salt its.
ilignation. The melancholy event, 'which has
just deprived Sweden of a Prince, eminent for ta.
lent and courage, will. doubtless render it necessary
to convoke, in a constitutional manner, an extras'
ordinary Diet, but can have no influence whets°.
ever upon the external policy of the kingdom;

Swedes can only be divided betwceo Princes who

Iburgh. The English .have, at all times, been ilarm.
led at the union of all the strength of gcandinavia
in one political system. They are aware that
the shutting of the Baltic, an active war 'in tipp
' North Sea, and perpetual alarm, with rtward
to the coasts of Scotland and Ireland, would be
the inevitable consequences of such a system. For
these reasons it was that in 1743 the Ittigllsh AM.
inn-eider prevented the Diet; already influeuced by
the voice of the people, from' electing the Prince
Reiyal of Denmark as successor to the Crown. But
the triumph of
.the intrigues of that ambassador
was entirely owing to the support of a Conti.
rental Power, which, at prisent, is at war with
England. It may easily be conceived, that all
the Swedish patriots arc, at this time of day,
conviticed of the fatal effects which the English
intrigue of 1743 has hail upon the tranquillity
and glory of Sweden. At present there prevails
throughout the whole of the north only one, nati.
