We underitaud that the King Of Sweden has
tent notification to the French General that
the armiftce will terminate at the Stipulated pc
rod. Ten days was the time firf fixed, but it
was afterwards extended to month. The COM
nand of the Pruf1ians who are to cooperate
with the Swedes has been given to General Blu
cher. He has publilheda fpirited proclamation
to his troops, and tells them that they are about
to commence their operations againlt the enc
mics OF their country. This Pruf1ian and Swe-
DIN force is to be strengthened by the German
Legion from this country and the aggregate
amount of the whole will be little lefs than So.

The rumour of Baron Hardenberg and Count
NovozlZow having arrived at the French head
quarters is unfounded. But we are Gill ncn-
cd to think that negotiation is going on thro'
the mediation of the court of Vienna. The
Aultrian General Vincent has returned to the
French head quarters.-.Attempts, however,
are laid to have been recently made by RufIia
10 draw Auitria into an alliance with her-but
the latter replied that fhe would not depart
from her fyRem of neutrality.
lhere is report lin circulation, that Den
mark has protefted againt the employment Of
britlih Heet in the Baltic and declared lhe ihall
conilder the appearance of Brtifl line of battle

q not believe the rumour. The Danilh Go.
sernment hardly wifhes to fee the Britifh feet
before Copenhagen fecond time.
The diipatches to the Governor of Malta
are itated to have required the immediate de-
parture from Malta of all the vietuallers and
itore Hips which might be lying there, as the
garrlion at Alexandria were in ltate little ihort
OF aoloiute famine. The Albanians had not
advanced upon Alexandria at the date of thefe
oiiPatchcs, but they had neglected no meafures
which could difrefs the Bri.iih troops.
The paiiage of the Mile was wholly inter-
ccepted, and nothing could reach Alexandria
from any part of the country. The dihrefs of
the Birth was consequently very great; but
general FRAZER had received the mott poftive
orders from Mefiina not to abandon his petition
as long as he could poGibly retain it.
The fecond action was more fevere than has
been imagined. Our lois in killed alone exceeds
feven hundred.
The repairs for the houfes which have been
damaged IN the courfe of the fege, amount to
9 millions at leaf. The houfes defroyed in
the fuburbs by order of General KaIkreuth, are
eitimated at nine millions at leaR.-This city,
in houfes alone, has therefore fuffered lofts to
the amount of 81 millions.
No frefh meat was continued during the fege.
The pound of meat fince the termination of the
ilege, provlions not being arrived, COTS from

MUNICH, June 2.
The Germanic ftates, who are allied to France,
are foley occupied at this moment in fupport-
ing, with all their energy, the watt deligns of
