AFFAIRS OF SWEDEN.

Letter from Gustavus The fourth, erk'ng Of
Sueden.
We have had the honor OF receiving the
following communication from his majesty
the late king of Sweden. and we submit it
to the public according to his request. 1t
is written in English, and exactly in the
form we now present it. The private, and
family, circumstances TO which it relates,
we think it becoming in US to leave with
out comment. 1t is we'll known that the
son of Gustavus Nv. has refused to make
formal abdicatioa of all his future claims to
the hereditary throne of his family. From
what specific motives he has acted, we
know not but we think an important
light is thrown upon them in the following
document from the pen OF The king: We
refer particularly, TO the third condition
imposed upon the deceased queen of Swe-
den, when confding to her care the edu-
cation of her children.
We shall only further observe, that his
majesty has relinquished his former title OF
count Gottorp, and now styles himself, CO.
lionel Gustatsson, which signature is annex
ed to the following statement.
THE LETTER.
/" Many journals having inserted articles
concerning prince Gustavus, son OF Gusta-
vus Ado!phus the ~. (Gustafsson) former
king of Sweden, it is necessary to explain
what has been said respecting this young
prince, and the public ought no longer to
be ignorant of all the unlawful and unlusti-
fsbIe transactions of the last three years.
6" 1t is time to make known that secret
intrigues were employed TO separate the
prince from his father, to whom ne owes
not only tine attachment and respect that
nature inspires US with for our parents, who
had made oveI to him great part OF the
considerable property devolyed on him
from his mother of blessed memory, the
defunct queen OF Sweden, and the remaiR-

pysENrERY COMPLAINTS.

As the season of the year has returned in
which Dianbess and dysentery complaints
are more prevalent than at some other sea-
sons of the year, permit me, Sir, to state,
for the benefit Of my fellow citizens, thai
BY upwards of twenty-seven years expert
ence have found, that whenever my bow
els were effected by any of these disorders,
RICE has been sovereign remedy, and
ALWAYS relieved me in a few hours and i
has always been attended with the same
good effect when complaints Of that nature
have attacked any of my children or faml-
". Ihave frequently recommended 1t TO
others who have been benefited thereby.
A, this season of the year, would recom-
mend it to be given to chilAen as meal
al least two or three times week--let
your rice be sufficiently cooked, either with
milk or otherwise so that il is made paIata-
b.e-if some prefer it in mutton soup, they
will find il beneficial, or in any other way.

THE London Traveller, of June 10,
contains the following remarks on an
article from the National Intelligencer.
" The National IntelHgencer, it is
well known, conveys the general views
of policy which are entertained by the
cabinet at Washington. In this light,
its artic lie on the Havana deserves serious
attention. 1t is written in a tone of cool
ness and moderation, disclaiming any
wish for transmarine possessions, and
even deprecating the necessity OF acquir-
ing possession of the island of Cuba
Still it cannot escape observation, that
this very line of argument tacitly admits
there may be such necessity; and then
the question strongly presses upon us,
what would the American writer call a
necessity? He probably thought there
was a necessity in 1900 for the purchase
, of Louisiana, and in 1919 for the pur-
chase of Florida. Others may hereafter
think that there is necessity for the
conquest of Canada, and for the subju-
cation of the Indian territory as far as
the Pacific Ocean, and when the CONT
mental acquisitions of the United States
are thus rounded off, it may, in their
