NV9@ssss:SS&N No relative to the affairs
s'SSgSsEA- n of Denmark. IL is
GsxeES certain, that none OF
his Majeify's Gervants, even thofe who APP
proach neareR his perfon and enjoy his con.
fidence, know any thing about the young
Queen, or the proceedings going on aeaintt
her: However, it is generally faid, by them
who are mott capable Of gueiIing, that the
will never come to England nay, they even
make il doubt, whether the whole affair
will ever be publiihed to the world.
The following are the names of the ihips
now fitting out to fail to the Baltic, and Of
which Lesd Howe is TO have the command,
viz. the Marlborough go guns, Albion "a,
Centaur "a, Egmont "a, Refolution -,
Torbay "a, Triumph "a, Aiia74, Somer'
fet ~, and Worcefter "a guns, each, Frig-
ates, viz. Glory, Thames and Southampton.
Fireihip, SuombalO. Bombs, Carcass and
Racehorfe.
The armament preparing againff Den

court at St. James, inGR, that no fentencc
lhall be pafed on her Danilh Majefy,
the evidence agsinR her being only pre-
inmptive and very inconcluiiye. The arsi-
Giles iaid TO be proved have been actually
lcnt TO LONDON, and have been fubmitTed
to opinions of the fiif lawyers, who, though
coniulted leperately, have all declared that
the evidence brought is 70 Ear from bringing
legal conviction, that it icarce amounts TO a
bare prefumption of guilt and they affirm
thar they not only do net give cTeditto any
of the facts as lawyers, but even find them
lelyes obliged to difbelieve them as men.
This coincidence of opinion has RATED
iuch fcruples in the Royal breaf, that il is
reiolyed not to permit the violence of the
Danilh factions 10 throw an unjuf difgrace,
by the fentence of guilt, ucon daughter of
Great-Britain. This reiontion being taking,
orders were Immediately ihued to prepare a
fquadron and a courier was, in the mean
Time, dispatched to Sir Robert Keith to in
litf upon fuipeniion of The fentence, to &c.
mand the pe:fon of the Queen, together
with her fortune, and feldement fuitable
TO her dignity and family. The Danes be-
ing in no condition to cope with this coun-
try, it is fuPpoied, l:.at the demands will be
complied with, without any coefcive mea-
fures.
The giving regiment to Sir Robert
Murray Keith, contrary TO all the military
rules, hath excited a general difcontent in
the army who are all injured but thofe
gentlemen who are nesref TO pretenGons
- the regiments, are mott exsfperated.
The number Of paragraphs, containing
fate news relating to the affairs If Den
mark, all in1ell Of PapiRs, who would excite
the mob againft the free proteflant Dane, and
the Houfe Of Brunlwick, gives general ap-
prehenhons, that the Pspifts intend to en-
bark US in war with our Pfoteaant neigh
bours, that the taxes which muf enfne may
turn the preIent fcarcitY into an zbfolute ia
| mine.
I All hopes Of treaty of peace between
the .RuliAns and Porte have vsniIhcd, for
the pretent; and, therefore, war in the
EAT of Europe is apprehended. Tie courts
of ST. Peterlbargh and Vienna, long hottie
TO one another, are now reconciled, from
their common svef6on TO the ceiIion of
Pollh PruiIia to the Honf- Of Brandenburgh.
