noon at Dover, with Russian Messenger ON
board.-He came from Bouiogl,e in French
schooner, and his name is De Sass. He left
Russia the latter end of February. At seven
O'CLOCK last night he set off for London, in
post -chaise and four, and arrived in town
this morning. The Rag of Truce returned
to boulogne as soon as she landed him. 1t is
another joint. overture from France and Rus
STA; but had that been the case, he would
have been dispatched frem Paris and not
from Petersburgh.- Others assert that he is
come with dispatches for the Russian Admi-
raj.
Mr.. Whitbread asked question in the
Honse OF Commons last night, relative to the
Revolution in Sweden. Mr.. Canning replied
that ne was not yet prepared to give the
hon. Member any accurate information.
There is no doubt, however, that such a re-
volution has taken place. Immediately af-
ter the Duke of Sudermania deposed the
king, his Majesty was conveyed to the Roya,
Palace OF Drottninghom, situated in a small
island at the distance Of about seven miles
from Stockholm, where he still remains con-
fned.-The chief object of the revolution be-
ing said TO be the, restoration of peace, cou-
riers were Immediately sent to the courts of
London, Paris. st. Petersburgh, and Copen-
hagen. with view to accelerate the event.
AS the authors of the Revolution arc ready
to cede Finland to Russia, peace it is sup
posed may easily be concluded. But let US
not adopt that opinion too hastily. The EN-
peror Alexander may see i'm this summary
proceeding against his brother in-law, some
thing TO alarm him. He may know or sis-
pect 1T to be the work of France, and she
holds 1t up as kind of warning or menace to
him it he should throw off her influence
He may therefore determine to adopt vigo
rous measure and to restore his brother-in-
law to his throne by force of arms.
AS to peace with this country, we always
caused 1T to be understood, that we never had
any objection to Sweden purchasing her safe
ty by making treaty with France.-Of
course, however. we could not refrain from
treating her as an enemy, it France would
RI he tral to,u, flc l,,,t
we should have recourse to hostilities with
great reluctance.
mat peace may easily be made by the au
thors of the revolution with France, we can
readily believe. The disposition of their
Sovereign will be their immediate PASSPORT
to the grace and fovor of Bonaparte.
The French, as appears by the Paris Pa
pers to the goth, did not make their formal
entry into Sarragossa till the 5th inst. though
its surrender is said to have taken place
on the 21st of last month. The account of
Palafox's death is contradicted. Lug may
he DO preserved to his country to which he
is so bright an ornament.
1t is announced in the latest lcttsfs from
Cadiz which are ofthe 10th inst that tran
guilty has been restored in that CITY; and
that the several persons confined in the Capu-
chin Convent, OH the charge of treason, are
to be brought to a speedy trial. Upon this
subject an interesting proclamation has been
publishedby the Supreme Jmta to the people
OF CadiZ. Ii asserts the innocence of the nar-
quis de Sillel; and in order to prove it more
fully, states that the commissioners who are
to examine his conduct are not to be chosen
out of their own body, but out of persons in
different to his person, and partial ONLY to
the cause OF their country. His papers are
said to have discovered no symptoms of trea-
son, having been subjected to the inspection of
Cen Jones, the person in whom more than
others the people place the greatest conf
dence. Atthe commencement of the distur-
Dances, Gen. Mackenzie was invited to land
his troops, in order to aid the popular cause
an interference which he very probably de
clined.
Admiral Purvis is said, at the date of the
above letters, to have been employed in as
sisting to fit out the ships of war in Cadiz, *
the defence of the town were
daily continued.
ETtract Of letter from an officer in The
squadron Oft Rochcfort, dated March 10,
1909.
1--WE are this day mooring our ships in
halt moon line of battle, within four miles
OF the enemy's ships, and our frigates half
way IN advance, so that it is impossible for
the Frebchmen toget out without bringing
us to action. They have one three tecked
slip and ten two deckers. We have the
same. but am afraid they will: not engage
US, and that it will be a long blockade. tits
