The following Note, relative to the sadden de priers of the English Ambassador, has been sle- Evered to all the Foreign Ministers here a— Though there has been no coolness in site palatine between the Sublime Perm and Eng land ; and though the former. in answer to some ex mierelieerf demands made by the English Amebas mks, a few days since. contented itself with &elm * that it was at was with Russia, and at peace with England ; yet, while ehe Ports flattered itself that the said Ambassador, after stue consideration, would desist from demands so very incompatible with the dignity of nations, and independeat powers, that Ambassador renrwed those demised% in a Note which he gave in. and to which he required a writ ten answer; and then, without signifying his intended departure, or the cause of it being known, embarked suddenly on board an English frigate lying in the harbour, with his attendants. mei some of Ole Ear merchants here, and, cutting his made, sited at midnight; his departure occasioned a gso.cal sur prise. " In a Nete which he left behind his, and which was delivered to the Porte after he was gone, he assigns as the principal cause of complus*, the re. fusel of a pass to a courier wham he wished to send. But as he received no positive denial, this could not be the cause of his dsperturs ; and it is well known , 9 every one, that nothing has taken place with re• to him, or any other Englishman. which could the least endanger their safety. " Though the interruption of the mission which the said Ambassador has occasioned by his unex. React! departure, without having received an an. sixes., requires explanation ; the Sublime Porte will not depart from the principles of integrity by which it is animated ; but as it cannot believe thut the English Court can aa in a manner contrary to the rules of justice, has delivered to the care cf M. Hubsch, the Danish Charged%lfairer, and the Pro curator of the said Ambassador. all the moveables and eff,:fls which belong to the latter ; and will take proper measures for the preteftion and security of the English who remain hi the Ottoman Erriptre ; and diet the ships belonging to them may receive rm " 3 /InT• orders have been issued to the OJica s o Government. that they shall remain die same state in which they nnw a►e. The Sublime Porte, to prove its adhetersce to that moderation and justice which has always been the rule of its condutl, and which it is determined to obser►e on this occasion, has caused the present Of ficial Note to be delivered to all the Foreign Minis ters, that they may transmit the same to their re spreitive Courts.

TJIZ BRITISH PRESS. LONDON, SATURDAY, Shaven. Tie retest chang• of Ministry is a salivS to which we si all find it our duty frequent)! to advert. A crestion has not arisen for many years of s,uch vital interest and importance, elm that viewed in relation to the event. or the circumstances by which it was brought about. In the Debate in the Houie of Lords, on Thurs- day night, Lnrd Easisitsr said, " he cGnsider eti the 'tibial (IS the Cathot Quisti.tn, as cam- pistely irrelevant, as any other whatever, to the late change u% His htitiesret Cottncils,although it hap• peeled to be the SabiZa which led to that c mjitne. r . tiff." WC OCIICIPC, with G LAN] icSICIAC. !hilt there was a deepclaid pho k that the cemhostibles were inepared. and that the Cathoic Question was manlike m tteh that decidgd the in ae:u of ex- plosion. Far be it from OA to, ittainqAte. that His 4,levril vms aware of this iotrigue. just, honoorable, and conscientious mind, is above the reach of all suspicion, and the candid and the honest are not the first to suspect others.— The effleoation given by Lord GmeiivlLLC and Irsioonntlioricc must convince every m in a th • verity stf their enflame, and lead the world, to be iiMMl that the cause lay something deeper than the Cs olio Q itstion. The publication in the News papers of the garbled extrod from the Minutes of she Privy Conocil, so ,i1.11.1y reprobated is the de bate on "l'hunday night, thews the charafter of the Agents in this business. We have been taught to consider the Kiwi's Cabinet a sa cred depository of the great secrets of state. Here is a cast which chews limn it may be violated and profaned. The necessary inference is frightful to co.ntemplate. If a, newsman cm rifle the contents, can we be sure that they are safe from tits enemy ? l'his clue, if followed with diligence, pay con3uel the inquirer through all the windings of *labyrinth. That the men who have succeeded to Ewer could aot chrose a better device to further • irk plans, we readily admit. To anticipate the argument of your adversary, is a course of which Ow most able disputant does not hesitate to avail himself; and for a man to charge another with the very offence which he is himself meditating, has often proved a convenient cover. Accordingly, we find those who were lying in wait to surprise, to entrap the conscience of the Kist:, were the first to charge that offence upon the late Ministers. In the prose cution cf this plan, all the revolutionary materials, which ingenuity and experience could suggest, have been set in motion. While the plot was hatching, the prints, devoted to the parry,vried out—" Popery I Popery I Nothing but P.spery ," the dead walls Were covered with bills, inscribed with . 4 Popery;' the flag ways were chalked with " Popery ;" it was even publicly given out, and believed by the popu lace, that Viscount HOWICII, in reading the Bill to His Majesty, designedly passed over the pa per containing the objeflionable nutter; but the delusion attempted to be spread by these machi nations, having been dissipated by the lurni notts and forcible explanations of Lord GRett v tee e, and Viscount Howler., the retainers of the new Men have changed theis ground, and some of their Newspapers, yesterday, charged, in almost diteß terms, these two N iblemen, with an attempt to u.urp the Sovereign Power, and called upon thre people" to rise," and vindicate their loyalty. That old political engine, that stale trick of in triguers, a Popish Plot, is now abandoned ; and we are presented with a double try Ems to blow up the KING and the Parliament. The objets to which this sort of language is addressed, thew the •aickedness of the heart and mind that conceived it Every argument in favour of the present Ministry is ad iressed to the lowest classes of society. They a ttempt to inflame the passions of the multitude, to a hose their igutivrinze, ei to establ 'hi th. new Minis try up-in the renovation of and very seCution 11te late Wenn:le:Le Deakin skewed. ;n a tolerable extent. what Can he drne by artful de magogue' anesog tbs tostkiende ; but the falsehood and misseptesentatinsit, practised on that 44,x.ftion, are trivial and puerile, compared with the diabulical attifsees which have been made use of to blacken and vilify those great, honourable, and distinguished men, who lately constitut-d His Maaastv's Cabinet. We have received New-York Papers to the 15. h hst, from which we have made some mitre/its.— The plans of Colonel Bu ait still continue the sub js.& of public anxiety and general conversation. Two of his accimplices are to be tried for high treason ; but why is he. the principal, suffered to be at large? The Americans begin to cusped that he is en instrument of r reach intrigue; and we *ball not be surprised if Caeir speculatioos shall orove well founded. The American Papers 41so contain some particulars of tl:e recent revolutio4 in St. Dewing o. Two Danish Mails arrived yesterday, with let• ten and pape.s from Himburgh and Alton*, to the 22.1 iut. A private letter from the latter plate, gives a very littering act:wont of the progress of the Russlanormies, and of the diseorofiatre of the French. The issuer are no! allowed to enjoy that repose with which &ISA P A era prO.Ellit4 to indulge them, but are daily h.l•assed by the enemy. The th zml.argh Corre3p,,ndentess, of the 21 st March-, contains an Official Letter of the Ottoman Porte, dated 4th Feb. to the Diplomatic Corps, announc ing the sudden departure of the Dneitsh Minister from ConstantiaoplN the determination of the Porte, notwithstanding, to protest the English and their property, and its friendly disposition towards England. Two Oottenburgh MAiis arrived in town, yester d4y. By private letters from that city, of the date of the 14th of March. we are informed, that the Swedish Government has detained there a part of the 500,0001. sent nut by this country for Russia, which part u to pay subsidies due trom the latter to Sweden : dime subsidies, it is said, amount to 37.1,003 ris dollars; and to answer this sunk 64 casks of Spanish dollars, containing 5000 eAch,iiare been stopped, and lodged io the - at ottenburgh . Another lett:r from that city, dated the 16th March, says.—'. An English Messenger has arrsed here to-day, in eight days, from St. Patersbiugh. with dispatches from thence, and from Constantino- ple. It is reportad, that, aWsoagls appositeness are, , at present, very warlike between the Turks and Russians, yet great hopes ara er,..tatainad of a speedy accommodation." . Some think that the three sail of the line, and a frigate. full of troops, which escaped a tew nights sin:: out of the outer road of Brest, are gone to the East Indies. abets are of opinion, that thel are gone to relieve the two ships blockaded in the Chesapeak. Oar blockading force consists only of two ships of the line and a frigate. Lord Han-nes:di' v's eloquence appears to have acquired a boisterous tone, since he became Warden of the Cinque Ports. His aSion also seems to him been learned upon the coast. During his speech in the flouse of Lords, nn Thursday night, he kept thumping the table, like a ship beating upon the Goodwin Saads. The Duke of Cusese•r. awn sat next to Lord Haws es sue y, during the debate, in the House of Lords, on Thursday night. The key. Dr. &timer. who died a few days since, was sixty years Chancellor of Norwich ; he was in his 91st year, and with him died the only oral tradition of the expuf.ion from Merton College, Oxford, of Six Fellows, by JAMES 11. in 1684, which was the cause of the revolution ; he was or dained by Dr. Hotion, Bishop of Worcester, one of the said six Fellows ; the Bishop died at the age of ninety two.
