Prague, (the capital of Bohemia) October. 6.  A company of
comedians, who call themselves Palatines having play'd the
tragedy of the late Baron de Gortz, who was beheaded at
Stockholm, and caused the King and Queen of Sweden to appear
upon the stage, the Swedish Resident made complaint of it,
upon which all the actors were immediately put under an
arrest; but 'tis said the Palatine Minister has declared
they are not of his country. (St. James's Evening Post,
Octob. 15.)
