Petersburg, from the apprehension of a bombardment. The inhabitants of Helsingfors, although protected by the Sweaborg fortresses, retired inland in considerable numbers, and many withdrew to St. Petersburg. The library of the university and the archives of the senate were packed up, and placed in the casemates of the fortress. The people at Hel- singfors, and all through Finland, began to suffer from the high price of provisions, so that the government interfered, and fixed a maximum. At the s...ame time a ukase, dated from St. Petersburg, directed that before the 29th of May, a naval force for the defence of the coast should be organised, and all seamen report themselves at their several ports. A number of Russian prizes fell into the hands of the fleet in every part of its progress hitherto, and the press of Berlin made piteous lamen- tations over the loss to commerce and the injury to innocent traders in this way inflicted. In order to blockade the Gulf of Finland the more closely, vessels were stationed both in the Gulf of Finland and the Gulf of Bothnia.
