Other accounts fla e. that the Danes have jd fail
of the line ready forfja, and that they have COUClL'i
ed a Ireaty otFenlive and defeafive with Bonaparte;
the principal ftipuiation of which is, that they ihall
employ, on their part, ail the means in their power
to prevent the admiffin of any Brit till veflel into
the Baltick.
It is by no means unlikely, that the Court of Den-
