Description[My son Robert quitted Amsterdam in January to see some of the northern parts of Europe; he went to Copenhagen, Stockholm, visiting all the principal Mines in Sweden, and from Gothenburg returned to Copenhagen after making a tour to Norway as far as Christiana. he has now left Lubeck on his way to Berlin and Dresden and is to be back at Mr. Gualia’s, Amsterdam, on June 1st and is to arrive in London before August. The town talk is of war, Press Warrants are in force and Stocks have fallen very much: my opinion is that nothing very alarming will happen.]
