A letter from Hamburger, September csth,
fays--The fpirited note which the King of SSe-
den ordered TO be delivered to the French
Charge dAftires at Stockholm in anfvcring
Bonapartc's libel on the King of Sweden in the
Moniteur, has excited fuch rage, that in the
prcfe,ce of ievera German Princes at Mentz,
he declared in the ,nof violent terms" That
the Swedilh Monarch fhould not in twelve
months, remain a member of the German EN-
pire that the Province of Swedifh Pomerania,
which gives him vote at Ratifbon, fhoud in
ihort time change It's Sovereign and, if the
King of Prui;a would not make arrangements,

prefence ofali the German Princes, ard of the
members of the Diplomatic Corps. In the G.

perial city of FRANKFORT, fent Courier to
his Court, no doubt, with thefe particulars.
1t is reported upon our Exchange that the
French troops encamped near Luuenburgh, in
Hanover, are to be increafed to $4,000 men,
and that the greater part of them are, before
the winter fets in, TO occupy Swedifh Pomera-
mia, under the command of General Leopold
Berthier. In the mean time the King of Sweden
has ordered Stralfund, the only ftrong place in
the German territorv, to I've put in fate TO fuf-
tain fege. The old Notifications are repairing.
and new ones are added and it is faid, that
an encampment of $4,000 Swedifh troops will
be formed between Creipfwald and Stralfund.
AS it is necenary for the French, before they can
arrive on the territory Of the King of Sweden, to
violate that OF Mecllenburg and PrufIia, it is
fupPofed that the former Dutchy will he alto
occupied by theu.--Uuder fuch an expectation,
the Duke and his family have removed their
NOT valuable effects to Stettin, in Pruilia. A
rumour is at the fame time current, that the En-
peror ofRuilia has offered to fepd $4,000 men az
"a fuccour to his Swedifh Majefty, but that the
King of Pruffia has remonftrated againft the de-
barcation of Ruiiian troops upon the German
Territory.

Several anecdotes related of his Journey in
Germany. AT Drefden, he had feveral conference,
with M. D'Antraigues. Whatever may be the inn
morality and venaiity of the Count D'Antragues e.
very body knows that he does not want wit.-The
things the King of Sweden converted about were 70
extravagant, that the Count could not help fyng
Rullian, friend of his -" There is young
Prince who commits an anachronifn Of IA years
He ipeaks to-day of the affairs of Europe and Of
France as people would have poken of them in 1902"

with the Count DAntraigues."
AT Ratfbon he alto had conference. with Father |,
Norm. This monk is one of the fubatern creatures
OF Drake and Spencer Smith even Drake only faw
him by proxy. The royal traveller granted him two
fecret interviews: and the monk an apoGa.e prief
the agent Of corruption and intrigues, whom his
prince drove from Ratibon, had the honor of con-
verfing with the king Of Sweden upon the plots
which might fill be laid by the fucceors of Drake
