Had Mr. STIAGIS Bouama atte Jed :he Corn. mittee during the progress of the inquiry, he not only would leave abstained from making the de claration now imputed to him, bat he would have been enabled to state, and dou'atless would have stated, when called upon by the Freeholders of Hampshire, that the Retolutios upon which the Report was founded, namely, that it Was expedient that an immediate and special communication should he made to the House, of the flagrant abuse and mi•application of the public monies discovered in the Pay Office, together with such remedies as, in the opinion of the Committee, might prevent the occurrence of similar abuses, was unanimously adopted by :he Cornm'ttee, ten days before the dis solution, and prior to any knowledge or suspicion of that event taking place; that the Chairman had in consequence been insttu Red immediately to pre. pare a Report upon that subjelft, and had aanally arranged the material; fur that purpose ; when, b" the rumour et a dissolution, he was induced to quit London; and that the Report which Mr. Gnu, who, in the absence of Mr. Balm's, bad been called to the Chair, was intended to present, was framed out of those ntaterials,and agreed upon, without a dissentient voice, by the Committee, which suet at its utual hour for that purpose, was regularly summoned, and numerou►ly attended. Had these fags been known t i the Freeholders of Hampshire, they would have had au opportunity of judging, whether the Report of the Committee of Finance, or the Dissolution, by which alone that Report conld have been suppressed. was 14 horrid sap" for the occasion ? and whether the country have mess reason to applaud the seal and diligence with which persons appointed by the House of Commons to inquire into public abuses, have exe cuted the trust reposed in them, or the care and contrivance with which the Knight authority, and the intervention of the Kisses Officers, have been employed, dexterously to defeat the °Nee, and withheld the result of the inquiry from the Public MIDOLFSEX ELLCTIoN.

LONDON, FRIDAY, Mat 15. WAR WITH TURKET. Hostilities have formally commenced between this Country and Turkey. Orden were yesterday dispatched by Government to the Commissioners el the Customs, to be forwarded to all the outpons, for laying an embargo upon all ships and vessels be- longing to the GdAND Stemma ; and also from the Admiralty, to the Commanders of King's ships and privateers, to detain and bring in all vessels, pro perty, Scc. belongirg to the subjeets of the Otto. M A N POILTE. Mr. Sroaar ? late Charge d'Affaires at the Court of St.Peter.burgh, arrived in tovro eaN'etluebday night. Mr. STUA ar Landed at Yermonth, our letter Nom which place, received yesterday, states, that his dispatches contain an account of an engagement be tween the Russians and French, in which the latter were defeated. with immense lose. Had Mr. STU A RS'S dispatches contained suds grateful intelli gence. Government would,no doallt,bare aaseuseed it to the public yesterday. _ Lord Cocita•Na sot only complains of the abuses of the Navy, but of the public Press. It is not enough for him to charge Lord Sr. %rimester with tyranny and oppressive. The condusloes of the news papers must also suffer his reproach. He complains that some of them do not give his speeches so much at length as Mr. Ss sato AM'S ; ;nil from thence he infers, that the Editor is paid to attend to Mr. 8 ea ammo, and neglea him. This propensity to censure is not a very amiable trait in his Lordship's charaaer. The reporting of speeches in the newspapers is a matter of taste and judgment, and surely an Editor may. without a crime, prefer Mr. SIIIRIDAN'I to Lord Coco Alsa'S.—The Editor owes no duty but to the public, foe whom be ought to selea the best fare within his reach. Neither Lord Coco aal4 s. nor any other individual, has a right to insist that his speech shall be dilated, to the exclusion of better or more important matter. Phe 7.00 has bmught horns some MR:erg of Lord CoLL7nowono, who hare obtained leave of absence, on account of their health. From one of these Gentlemen, we have received the following particulars, as to the present state of the hostile Meets in C.idis and CArthagena. The Combined Fleet in Cadis consists of 13 sail of the line, of which rise are French, and eight are Spanish. There are. moreover, three or four ships of the line in ordi nary, two upon the stocks, and several sloops and frigates are refitting. In Carthagena, there are three sail of the li ne , three frigates, and two sloops, all ready for sea. Besides the above squadrons in Caair. and Car thagena t there are three two.deckers, two frigates, and three sail of the line, in the har bour of Toulon I. and three frigates, two sloops. and many gun-boats, in that of Venice. At Naples. there arc two sloops and a frigate.—The vessels in the Italian Ports are bat badly manned, but the 1• ranch endeavour to terry:dy this defsa. by pressing the clews of every Teasel which they chance to meet. - S. - - _ J -.._ , .. . ,~... ;•:;'; ' 46' HER M.4JESTT'S DRIVING-ROOM. The Drawing-room announced to be held yester day, by Her MAJISTY, at St. James's l'AlaCe, ex cited more public attention than any that has been held for a nurnoer of years past, owing to a general rumour that the Princess of WA LIS would be pre sent, after an absence froM Court for alrout two years. The unfavourableness of the weather did not prevent the public at larg... as w.fl as those in hig'i life, who attend Court, from gratifying their cu riosity. The different avenues leading to the Palace were crowded with spedators, particularly near the private entrance, for the Royal Family, what is go nerally called the Garden-Gate, in the Park. Her Kum., came from her Palace to St. James's, accompanied by the Pas/seem,. About half-past twelve o'clock, they retired to Miss PLANTA% apartments, and partook of some refreshment. They after wa.ds retired to their pri vate apartments, 'and dressed tor the Drawing Room. At two o'clock, they proceeded with their usual attendants and forms to the Grand Council Chamber, to hold the Drawing Room, which com menced accordingly. The Duke of Cv )(Da AAA * ,wbo was in attendance, in his Court-dress, in a private apartment, near the garden-gate, gave diretlions to be informed as woo as the Princes of WAL es's carriage was approach ing, which was accordingly done, and His Royal Highness was at the door when the Princess's car riage stopped; as soon as it halted, the populace gave three cheers, at which she appeared much at tided; Her Royal Highness appeared in Fold health, and was in mourning for her Royal Father. Her dress was black sarmet, with draperies of black cape, richly embroidered with werysisere. with an elegant pearl festoon on each side, with gold foil and pearl trimming intermixed; head-dress, pearl, and a superb plume of Ostrich feathers. The Marchioness of TOWNSIILND attended Her Royal Highness. The Duke of Cum; AAAAA D conduaed her through the Palace, to the Grand Council Chamber, where Her Mssrsry was holding the Drawing. Room, and presented her to the Qatar! ; after conversing for a few miuutes, Her Royal High ness passed on to the Princesses, the Princess So,'uia of GLOUCBSTIII, the Dukes of CA Oil eaIIIGIC and GLOUCESTIR ; and ; after some congratulations, Her Royal Highness received the compliments of the principal part of the Nobility and Gentry preyent.
