LONDON. Oct. Is

The object Of Mr.. Merry's mission. which
we now unde' stand to be Sweden, is, as report
further states, to sound the inclinations of
that court as to the future occupancy of Yea
land; whether his Swedish Majesty may be
disposed so defend, or assist in defending it
ag9inst the French, during the ensuing win
ter.
We Yesterday noticed the arrival Of the
Electra brig, with dispatches from Admiral
Lord Collngwood She left Malta on the
18Th and Gibraltar on the 28th ult. and we
understand brings intelligence Of the failure
OF or Arthur Paget's mission TO Constantine
PIE. It Is also reported, that the Electra
brings an account that Bonaparte has inf1uen-
ccd the Emperor of Morocco to agree to with
hold all sorts Of supplies from the garrison at
Gibraltar.
October is.
Mr.. Rose Jun. is not to supercede the Hon.
Mr.. Erskine in his embassy to America. but is
invested with special commission. There
is no doubt but he is the bearer Of n proposi.
ton that is expected to conciliate the States.
and probably there is already an understand
ing OF the subject. 1t is said, that a proposal
has been made to America, which, without
givinguP the principle for which we are at
issue, is az the same time materially to assist
our own colonies. It is said TO be proposed
to the Americans, that as we mean 20 put all
the Preach md Spanish colonies under n more
riSarcas blockade, they can no Longer, be al
loved 70 carry the produce Of Cuba, Cautla-
lodpe, &c. TO Europe; but in rcconpence they

lure, ceaied their obforvations on the con-
troverfey between the United States and G..
Britain, on the fubje6 of the Chefapeske
aifair.-TbeY waited the arrival Of expected dif.
patches to our miniGers. There were fome.
however, who confdeTed war as very probable :
and that preparations ought to BE- made to wage
u'--On the iubJett OF the treaty points, it was
conterded, in the Mn1eriaI papers, that c..
Britain would readily concede the point, thar
National Hips Giould I've exempted from all

iearch merchant ihips might be acceded but
the general right Of belligerent to fearch neu-
trial merchant fhips for deferiers, as well as con-
traband goods, was one which they never
would furrender And that if the American
Miuifters were inaru6ed TO leave England, un-
ets this right was reinquiihed, they nun leave
England.--OD this head all parties appeared to
be united. The celebrated Mr.. Sheridan,
