Of General Sarazin's visit to Eng land was

raeement to the disafected party. lie

Some advices from the Baltic reached US
Yesterday. Nothing decisive is mentioned
yespecting the rival candidates Tor the sue
cession to the throne Of Sweden, the ne
red;,ary duke OF OIdenburg, and the king
Of Denmark. 1t is understood at Stock
holm and elsewhere, French intrigue IS
extremely active to procure the appointment
of the latter, but the detestation in which
the Swedes hold The Danes, will, no doubt,
render the nomination of Danish sove-
reign task very difficult TO accomplish:
Exchange Of Prisoners. The following
paragraph on this subject appeared In the
Moniteur Of the 2lst, in the form OF notes
upon TWO articles extracted from the Lon
don Journals:
I" The assertion that France proposed to
comprehend in the exthange the Russians
taken in Poland, and the Swedes taken in
the last war, is calumnious and absurd. Ii
the English adopt, as the basis OF the ex-
change, that of including all prisoners who
were comprised in the two beil'gerent mass
IS, that is to say, the SPaniarts and Portu-
guese, there will no longer be any obstacle
to the exchange of prisoners, and 10000
men will return to their country. Observe,
that of these 10000 men, France will send
home upwards of 70 GOO English, Spaniards
and Portuguese. The object Of this article
is to induce belief, that the delay which
prolones the suf}ernps of SO many families
ought to be attributed to France, and to
cast the whole odium upon her whereas,
on the contrary, Mr.. Mackensle has been
for month without an answer TO his de-
spatches, and without instructions. II the
nc gociation lags, it is the fault OF Eng
land"
General Sarrazin was on duty when Ma
poleon and his new empress were at Bou-
logne. Alter viewing The FORTH a;ions, and
every thing interesting in the town, they
went TO the heights 10 take peep at the
ocean. The Austrian princess had ,eles-
cope in her hand, and observing vessel
cruizing at some distance, she inquired
what it was, and was informed that it was
an English vessel. Perceiving FIVE others
in the harbor, she asked what they were,
and was told that they belonged to the rm-
peror. She then asked why the five vessels
did not 90 and take that belonging to the
enemy? At this moment Bonaparte, who |
had shewn restless impotence, could re-
strain his feelings no longer, but snatching
the glass out Of her hand, exclaimed in the
French language, with great impe.uosi,y-
" because the wind is not fair -
R1or.-On Saturday light very serious
.iot took place at Liverpool. A man be.
longing to an American vessel in the harbor
having been impressed, on the ground of
his being an Englishman under an Ameri
can protection, body Of American sea-
men, taking the opportunity afforded by
the people about the docks being absent at
dinner, proceeded to the RENDEZVOUS house,
and being refused admittance by the only !
one of the gang then in the place, they broke
open the door, and dragged him on board
an American vessel in the dock they pro-
ceeded TO tarring and fea,hering, and &C.
cordingly stripped him naked, and rolled
him on the deck of the vessel, on which
quantity of tar had been previously poured.
