Sir: I have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your number 260.
In view of the Eastern war, this government has republished the law for the protection of Swedish neutrality.
The Riksdag has, without a division, made an extra appropriation of two millions of crowns to enable the government to maintain neutrality. Besides this, there is the standing appropriation of one and one-half million crowns, called the “little credit,” which the King can use for the protection of the country in case of emergency.
I am, &c.,
C. C. ANDREWS.
