and Mr. Powell had taken down what he bad to I fay. Cbeift2ther Riebartlfin knows Bell. He had gone 14) rte Flurgers, and tact Wallace coming out of Burgefs's houfe in Curzon-firect. He went with one dallant and Wallace to a houfe in Half Moon [freer, ' when Wallace told him that when the Petition was pollponed their cervices would be of no force, and thole who chofe might go out of the way. The wittier' had no reafon to keep cut of the way. He Paid he had communicated to Mr. Powell what he did in trying to fee Burofc, and in meeting Wallace. He had attended Powell feveral times, and had re ceived ten fhillings for two days lofs of time in en deavouring to fee Burgefe. It was in January this happened. He had feen Powell during the eledion. It was one John Balaam that took Lim to look f Burgefs; .and the object was to lee whether Burgefs would offer them any money to keep out of the way. They did not fee Burgefs. He had loco Mr. Powell a day or two after, and Powell had given him ten (billings for his lofs of time the two days he went ' with Balaam to Curzon-flreet. He had gone from Ca rey-fireet, where Mr. l'aull's Committee fat. Mr. Powell, he Paid, had not advifed him to go to Burgers, but he did not know whether Mr. Powell did not underfland that Balaam took him to look for Burgefs rot the purpofe of trying whether he would give them money. He had teen ore Percy at the Committee in Carey-ffreet, who knew he had been at Burgers's, and who after he had gone the firtt day, encouraged him to go back to fee what Burgers would fay. Being afkcd whether it was his object to get money from Burgers ? he raid, " No ;" but a former anfwer being read to him, in which he Paid the contrary, he ad mitted the objed was money. He had gone not to ark, but to fee if Burgefs would offer any money. He raid he h ad lo ft a day in going to fee if Burgefs and Wallace would not pay him. Being examined by Mr. Sheridan, he denied that he had lately been locked up with a parcel of pickpockets, in the black hole, C. Char ; but he had nut vet)? lately been at Matlborough-[greet office. Balaam mentioned his having gone to Burgers with Richardfon, to fee what Burgefs would fay ; they went to try if Burgefs would offer them terms to go out of town. They had advifed with Mr. Panll's Solicitor, Mr. Powell, about going to fee Burgers. Powell only Paid, they might go to fee what Burgas would fay. After having gone to Cur zon-tlreet, in quell of Burgefs, he went back and told Powell. He does not remember whom he law at Carey-fireet, betides. He told Mr. Powell when he returned from Curzon (freer. Powell had told him not to intuit Burgefs, but only fee what he would lay . He elf„ Rated, that on the zoth January he had feen Wallace with Sperring and others, at the Ship, Charles-fl eet, Weliminffer. There not being any more witneffes to be examin ed, the Learned Counfel were informed that on Thurfday next they might proceed with their font ming up, being mindful, however, that as they had been diretled to do in their opening, they fhould con fine themfelves to Inch matters only as went to fop. port the allegations in the petition. 141r.WHITBREAD obferved, that in a cafe where a with was expreffed to punifh others for impeding or preven , ing the regular mule of jullice by tamper ing with Witnetres, he had never heard of a fet of Waneffes who more jultly merited the cenfure of the tribunal before which they gave their tefiimony than thole who had then been examined at the Bar of the Houk, particularly the Witnefs Richardfon. Sir JOHN ANSTRUTHER thought that Mr.W. vros ton limited in his idea of cent - tire ;he (Sir J.) was of opinion that Balaam was the principal man ; it was he that employed Richardfon; and it was ne eelfary for the end of jultice that fame means thould he taken to fccure the witneffes, as is anal in a Court of Criminal Judicature, to anfwer for their fcanda lous prevarication. Mr. PERCEVAL reminded the Hnn. Members, that there were two modes of proceeding open to the Houfe ; if the Houfe thought fit to punifh indi vidual witneffes, they would have to proceed imme diately ; if they (horrid think it conlittent with the ends of public jultice to adept another mode, that of charging all the parties, both Witnelfes and Peti tioner, with a confpiracy, fame further time would then be need - dry, in cutler to prepare for fuch a flep. After a converfation of fome length, however, it was ordered only that the Witneires fitould appear again at the Bar of the Houfe on 'l'hurfday. Mr SHERIDAN intimated that, if he (tmid think it neceffary to go into any evidence on his cafe, it would amount to a recrimination againit thole who brought the pretent charge before the Houfe.

I 4 and the Duke d: Ricatutu, lhould retire from Wallachia and Moldavia, within fAnteers days from the time in which they fhould receive notice by a Ruffian and Turki Courier. It wart in vain th .M.

The Ambaffador prudently embarked the fame day. In the mean time Mr. AIgUTHIIOT excited himfcif to reconcile there unpleafant differ ences, and with fuch ci,mplete eff.:Ci, drat M. Ira LIN SKY was about to return and refutne his Nations as Ambaffador. The Dry of ALGIERS had availed himfelf of this inefficient rupture to commence holtilitiesagainli the Ruffians ; but it is Rated that this difference has like wife been reconciled ; and that, by a viciffitude not uncommon in Barbary politics, he had at the fame moment proclaimed peace with Ruflia, and war with France. So much is certain, that the Mediterranean is covered with the privateers of the Barbary Powers, and t!iat they have been fueecc.ful in their depreda tic.ns upon the coatling trade of France and her Italian Allic,. The folloning letter from St. Pete:lburgh, from a perfon of the highell refpeetability, though not of a late date, will be found intereaing "ST. PETERSBURG H, JAN. 1.0. 4 4 We are in high fpifits. The Army is daily re ceiving reinforcements, is in perfed order, and evinces a good deal of confidence. Platow, Herman of the Coffacks, is at hand with 50,000 men, betides the Tartar: and Calmucks expefted from Orenburgh. Moldavia, with Yalli, and all its fortreffes, is in our poffeffron. We have obtained a fortrefs on the Da nube, and a bay in the channel of Conaantinople for the fecurity of onr tranfpotts and (hips of the line, fo that the army in Moldavia is in the belt condition imaginable to aft againli the French.

Every Commander thrives to outdo the rett in forming his corps. The Nobles vie with each other in military equipments ; while thole who have not the fame means, make all the fact ifices in their power. In a word, our firefides will thcrtly be defended by a molt formidable army. B )th ()Ricers and foldi:rs burn with an ardent defile to diltinguifh themfelves. The fruits of patriotifm are now confpi:uoully vilible. The merchants of Mokoisv offered 6,000,000 rubles to the Emperor, which were, however, refufed. Count Orloff gave 2,000,000 roubles, and 2000 Pea fants of his own to the fervice. Something fimilar happens every day. A German artificer, an inha bitant of-St. Petercourgh, where he has made his fortune, prefented to his Majelly 40,000 mufkets which I,e had in his warehoule. A private Gentle man fold all he was worth, to the amount of to,ooo roubles, gave the whole to the State, and enrolled' himielf in the militia.

BANKS OF THE ELBE, FEB. 16. According to the Weft intelligence, the theatre of war in Poland appears to be entirely changed, and the French and Ruffian armies have taken op politions altogether new ; the latter has made a quarter wheel, and the greater part of its force is at prefent in EMI Pruffia ; the French rimy has followed this move ment, and its left wing fince the bloody affair of Mohringen, has drawn nearer to the centre, whole pinion appears to be near Willenburg. The prin cipal force of the Ruffians is concentrated between the lake Spirting and the Narew ; it extends its tight towards Paffenheim, and the front of this wing is to the S:uth. All accounts agree in laying, that a de ciflve battle would loon take place in that neighbour hood. We learn by private letters, that the garrifon of Dantzic had made a fortie againfl the confederate Poles, driven them back, and made feveral prifnners. It is added, that thole of the prifoners who were born , in Pruffla have been (hot at Dantzic. According to thefe lan accounts, all was tranquil at Koaingfburg, where the (teen had alto returned.

FEBRUARY 4. The Porte makes great preparations for carrying on the war againa Ruflia with energy, but as peace with Czerni George is not yet made, and conic quently it has to fear new hoflilities on that fide, while on the other, the Englifh fleet in the canal of Conflantinople prefents obfiruilions to the paffage of the Afiatic troops to Europe; the Porte is obliged to affcmble All the forces which it basin its turrpcan pofrctlions; and the Pachas of there provinces do all in their power to place on foot a firong army.
