Colonel WARDLE,—" 1 am now aware of what Mrs. Clarke means by the expression relating to ne gociation. The letters sent by Donovan to her were for the purpose of having them signed by some Ge neral Officer or Member of Parliament. One of these she has stated to you to have been signed by Ge neral Clayering. The other three or four I got from her with the intention of having them signed by a Member of Parliament. I believe I may have stated to her that my friends were in the opposition, and therefore not likely to have much influence with the Commander in Chief." Colonel WARDLE examined by the CHANCELLOR of the EXCEiKQU - ER. Q: Are all the letters the Honourable Member ob tained from Mrs. Clarke on the table ? A. Ido not know ; if there are any relating to the subject of this inquiry that are not, I have no objection to produce them. _ _ _ Q. Has the witness to lay on the table the letters he got by violence from Mrs. Clarke ? A. I have no objection :o lay on the table all letters relating to Officers so recommended. _ [Lord FoucsToNz having have suggested something to ti:e witness,] . . - Sir G. HILL rose to order. He said it was very Irregular in any person to whisper to, or communi cate in any way with a witness under interrogation.- Mr. WINDHAM maintained that a suggestion might be given to a Member so situated, as to what was pr.-per for him to do, but not to direct or enable Lim to shape his answer. _ _ _ Lord FOLKESTONE stated that he conceived the examination of the witness had closed, and that what he had taken the liberty of suggesting to him, related in no way whatever to the subject of his examination. Under these circumstances he conceived he had a right to communicate with him. Mr. WHITBREAD contended that it was conso- nant to parliamentary usage to do so. The CHANCELLOR. of the • EXCHEQUER observed, there would be no great use in discussing this principle theoretically, when there was no fact before the House. He would assert, however, that the only difference-between a Member under examination and a common witness was, that the former was ex amined in his place, and the latter at the Bar. Nov supposing a witness at the Bar under embarrassment, what would be thought of it if a person should be found to prompt him ? If it were wrong in this in• stance, it would not be more right in a MeMber of that Hors:. The difference of situation should make 'no differenCe as to the application of the principle. Mr. WINDHAM contended that the arguments of the Honoutable Gentleman did not at all a pply in tin, instance. The Honoutable witness had a question put to hint as a prosecutor, and not as a . witness. Mr. CANNING said, if the question was not put to him as• a witness, the case was clear. Mr. WHITBREAD would still maintain, that a M em b er; under examination, had a right to commu. those about him. Mr. C. JOHNSTONE suggested, that as th ere was w - question before the liouse, the discussion should terminate, and the Committee proceed in the business belore it. After few word,: from Mr. BATHURST and. Mr. Worm r--%7), the eNatnination was renewed by Mr. amtaarczu, Q.. Are there any.-letters relating to the object - of i ',Nulty -received by the Honourable Member f rom NI, 5, Clarke, which he has any objection to lay the table (Colonel Wardle.) I know of none 7.' such. 'here wish to ' no reason in possessiest4 Q. (By Mr. receive the le in her letter have made no memorandum of the transaction. Mr. GREENWOOD was next called in, and examined by Colonel WARDLE. Q. I wish the witness should be asked if Mr.Frome is in his office ? 'A. No.—Q. Did he not succeed to the situation of one of his clerks who has lately left him ? A. No.—Q. Did he not come to town to sup ply the place of that clerk ? A. No, he came to town to settle an old account, relating to the Military Col lege.—Q.- When did he settle that account ?A. He is settling it now.—Q. Where does he transact that business ? A. Very near my office, in Charing-crop. Q. (By General LorTus.) Is witness agent to the 22d Dragoons ? A. No.—Q. Does he recollect any aifference between the Commander in Chief and him, relating to the Paymastership of that regiment ? A. Certainly Clot.--Q. Is it in the power of any agent to recommend a Paymaster ? A. The recommendation comes front the Colonel of the regiment; the Secretary at War takes care that the sureties are sufficient ; and the appointment is submitted by the Commander in Chief to his Majesty.—Q. Then the Commander in Chief has othing to do with it, but to lay it before t his Majest ?A. I never knew le had.—Q. Do you know a person-of the name of Elderton ? A. Yes.— Q. Had you any difference with the Duke of York respecting his appointment to a Paymastership ? A. Never.—Q. Did the Duke of York ever apply to you respecting Elderton ? A. He told me that a person Of that name would call on me ; that I might make inquiry respecting his character and sureties. Q. (By Colonel WARDLE.) Did the witness ever write to Mrs. Clarke ? A. I believe 1 did.—Q. What was the purport of his letter ? A: It was in answer to a note from her respecting a Captain Thompson of the cavalry, a brother, I understand, of her's. Q. Did he state in that note, he was sorry .she got acquainted with Finnerty ?A. No.—Q. Did he ever send any message to that effect by a person of the name of Taylor ? A. No.—Q. How long was Mr. Frome in his office before he left him ? A. I cannot say. I dismissed him when I discovered he was traf ficking in commissions. Q. (By Lord FOLKESTONE.) By whom was the note to Mrs. Clarke sent ? A. By Taylor.—Q. Is the witness acquainted with Mrs. Sinclair, or Suthet. land ? A. Yes.—Q. How many years ago did he first become acquainted with her ? A. It is six or seven years ago since I first saw her.—Q. How long is it since he saw her last ? A. I have not sten her these two years.—Q. On what occasion did he last see her ? A. On a mere visit of civility. I had no par ticular object.—Q. What led to his acquaintance with Mrs. Sinclair ? A. My first acquaintance with her was through a friend.---Q. Was it in consequence of her intimacy with the Duke of York ? A. That may have been one cause of my acquaintance with her. I am aware that the Duke of York was .acquainted with her. lam not aware that he was intimate with her.—Q. What was the general character of that lady ? The . CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER objected to this mode of examination, and the witness was ordered to withdraw. A conversation of considerable length.' took place, whether Mr. Greenwood should be further examined on this point. The CHANCELLOR of the ExcuxQuEst, Mr. BERES FORD, and others, contended that he ought not to be examined as to the general character of a Lady who was not before the - House, and whose credit ought not to be impeached when it was not in question on the present subject. . It was on the other band in sisted on by Lord FOLLESTONE, Mr. C. WYNNE, Mr. WIFDRAIA, and others, that as it appeared her recom mendation had-been attended to by the Duke of York, it was proper and necessary the witness should dis close what he knew to be her general character ; and it was at length decided, after Lord FOLKESTONE had =to withdraw his last question, that the witness l e l again be called in. Mr. GREENWOOD re-admitted, and examined by Lord FOLKESTONE. Q. Do you know of any connection having ever subsisted between the Duke of York and Mrs. Sin clair or Sutherland ? A. I have heard there was.— Q. Do you know any fact which enables you of your own knowledge to say such a connection did subsist ? A. I have heard Mrs. Sinclair herself say so.—Q. Did you ever hear her say she was with child by the Duke of York ? A. Yes, I have.—Q. Did you ever know of a house at Hamburgh being taken for Mrs. Sin clair to lie in at ? A. No.—Q. Do you know of any measures taken for that purpose ? A. No.—Q. Can you of your knowledge say if Mrs. Sinclair ever got a troop or company for a friend of her's, .of the Duke of York ? A. Certainly not.—Q. Can you speak po sitively that you never corresponded with her on the subject ? A. I can positively say I never did.—Q. Do you recollect ever writing to Mrs. Sinclair on any mi litary matter ? A. I recollect she wrote to me on the subject of getting a company for a son of General Davison's, which I did not apply for ; and also to obtain leave of absence for him, which I did apply for, and in which, I think, I was successful.—Q. Was Mrs. Sinclair, to your knowledge, given to un derstand that Officer was promoted on her application ? A. No. Q. (By Mr. C. Ao/6is.) You have said before that you had sent an answer to Mrs. Clarke by Mr. Taylor. Was it Mr. Taylor the shoemaker ? A. Yes.7-Q- How came you to do so ? She sent him to me. Q. (By Sir Jowl SEiniaAT.) Was the name of Mr. Elderton ever sent to you as a proper person for a Paymaster ? A. Yes *; he was recommended to me for that appointment.— . -Q.. Was he ever appointed a Paymaster ? A. Upon a vacancy offering in Sir Ro bert Abercrombie's regiment, I recommended him to Sir Robert as a proper person to fill that office. Q. (By Sir T. WILLIAMS.) no you know of an y large sum of rnoner'having been paid by the Duke of York to Mrs. Clarke, during her residence in Glou cester-place ? A. No large sums ever went through my hands to Mrs. Clarke ; nor any sum at all. Q. (By Mr. C. ADAMS.) YOU said you had a Cor respondence. with Mr. Taylor : *hen did it take Soma A. A few days ago. Q. (By "Mr. MACDONALD.) When you rectom...,' zueudeti Mr. Eldvrton to Sir Robert Abercrombie; c• ~ 4. .t .:P' • • • cumstances which created in my mind objections, and I wrote to Sir Robert Abercrombe to inform him of them.—Q. What led to these objections ? A. Sbme accounts I had received Irons. Bristol, that he bad done some acts which witsnot-- very honourable.— Q. What was the consequence of these discoveries ? —A. I wrote an account of them to Sir Robert Aber combie, and his appointment was in consequence de layed for some time, but I understood that after wards Mr. Eldertoen or some of his friends wrote to Sir Robert Aberctunbie on the subject, and the ap pointment was made out in consequence of the re commendation of Sir R. Abercrombie. Q. (By Mr. ABERCROMBIE.) After the objections were made, did any conversation take place on the subject between the Duke of York and you ?. A. No. Q How did you know of any subsequent application to Sir Robert Abercombie ? A. I think I have letters from Mr. Abercrombie to that effect, The witness was told he might withdraw.

He said he had got into some scrape about a lady.—Q. Did he men tion her name? A. No. He was going to do it, but I stopt him, as I usually did on such occasions, not wishing to hear from officers more than the nature of their business actually required. Q. (By Mr. CREEVEY.) Is it within your know ledge, that if a complaint was made against an Offi cer, of his having behaved ill to a Lady, be , would be called to an accotint for it ? A. That would depend on the terms in which the complaint was made. The letter in question stated, that the Genmal of the District knew all the circumstances.---Q. Has it come to your know ledge, that on an anonymous letter are signation has been stopt ? A. I cannot say as to a re signation ; but all anonymous letters are invariably attended_ . to j and art inquiry was made in the proper course. . The witness was told he might withdraw. General NORTON stated briefly that he had known a similar case, in which all the circumstances took place as in that then alluded to. The next witness was General RQCHrOBT. Q. (By the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER.) Do you recollect the name of Samuel Carter, who lived with Capt. Sutton ?A. Yes.—Q. Was he understood to be Capt. Sutton's natural son ? A.

The papers in his possession originally be longed to a bankrupt of the name of Kennett. As soon as be heard Mr. Dui was in the lobby, he went out to him, and the result of the conversation was, that Mr. Doff was willing. to deliver the papers to Lord Folkestone ta-rnorrow. morning. That inten tion he had stated to the Chancellor of the Exchequer, who had no objection to it. He had therefore now only to say, that he would communicate to the House his opinion upon those papers when the House next e tnet. The House then resumed, and the Chairman re ported progress.

Exchequer Bills ifs. to 13s. pre. • Yesterday we received letters by the Jamaica Mail, which ar rived on Tuesday. The vessel by which the Mail arrived, brings very large remittances in Bullion to our Merchants here, besides orders for goods to a very great extent. Our limits only permh us to state, that the misunderstandings between the House of Assembly of Jamaica and the Military, with the Governor at their head, still subsist. We have already noticed tke arrival of the Algeciras, from Cadiz. We are sorry to state, that the private letters received by this conveyance, tend very much to extinguish our hopes of any further successes, or even exertions in support of the Patrio tic Cause. The principal inhabitants, or rather the Members of the Su preme Junta, are said to be divided among themselves, and the party of MORLA, the , avowed partisan of King Joscru, is said to have gained an ascendancy. A number of arrests took place on thi 2d instar.t, and appre hensions were hourly entertained of popnlit commoti.)ns. The Governor of Cadiz., VIRUEZ, has arlived in the Algezi rae, with CEVALLIOS, besides a number of distinguished person ages. The cause of their leaving Cadiz cannot lopg be concealed. The French and Spanish squadrons were •moving, into the outer harbour, and hopes were entertained. that they would be got off in the event of a change of the popular sentiment, in fa vour of the french. The San Jusre, a Spanish man of war, had arrived * Cadiz from Vera Cruz, with 9,200,000 dollars on board, fot die use of the Patriots. • By'the William, Captain Hot-max, a vessel arrived at Yoiver r pool, In twelve days from Lisbon, we learn that tire*, sail or tr.tipernt Witb troops pa board, under convoy of is:frigate, had loft the Tagus the Cacilz;tbit day before the William sailed.

This measure has diffused the most universal sa. tisfaction throughout the Garrison, and is a stron g proof of the liberal and enlightened policy of the Spanish Government towards us, as they seem anxious to remove every means by which the place could be annoyed in future, in case any reverse of fortune should take place in Spain, which might enable the enemy to penetrate to this neighbourhood. The utmost enthusiasm still prevails along t h. whole of the provinces on the toast of the Me(' terninean, where every man capable of working (.7 fighting is daily employed in the common cause ; an d it furnished with arms, of which they are still much is want, it would hardly be possible to subdue them."

The walls of the centre house are much da maged, and all the windows in the three tenements were com pletely demolished.
