We have authority to state, that Mr: PAuLL; con ceiiing himself entitled to an apology Or'satiiiiitaion from Sir - FIt . A•NCIS BuntoETT, in consequence of the transa&ions already stated in the Public Papers to . , have passed at . the dinner o n F r id a y, a t th 2 Crdwu ' and Anchor, called at Sir FRANCIS'S house, at Wini= - bledon; about one o'clock on Saturday , morning, ac companied by Mr. —, his' friend. Mr. ----.:. acquainted Sir FRANcis of the nature of the-visit, and . several messages passed, by means of Mr. —, be tween Sir FRANCIS and Mr. 'PAULL—(Mr..PAULT. remaining in his carriairey; but Sir FRANcrs, feel ing that Mr. PitYLL had claim to an apology frbiii" him for any part Of 'his condu&, informed Mr. ---, that ii was his determination not to '. make, any : these different communications lasted till about four o'clock. It was, then agreed that t h ey s h ou l d meet at Kingston, as soot as Sir FRANCIS could procure the attendance of his friend, Mr. ----, from. town. Mr. --,-- found them at Kingston about nine o'clock the. same morning, when the parties- agreed to proceed to Coombe Wood,' near that town. Here ieach.still persevered in their former determination. Owing to circumstances (not necessary ,to be now stated), Sir FRANCIS BURDETT was unprovided with pistols: It was immediately • agreed; that both should use Mr. P,AuLL'g. Upon, a signal given by one of the seconds,, they both fired together, but without effe6t. Upon Mr. PAULL being then asked by Mr. -- if he was. now satisfied ? He declared he must have an apology, or - proceed. Mr. declared an apology from. Sir FRANCIS was quite out Of the question. The signal was made as .befbre, when they again fired together. Mr. PAULL then fell ; being shot in the upper part of the leg:- , as did Sir F. in a, few seconds afterwards, being shot in the upper part of the thigh. They were' imme diately conveyed to town in the same carriage, under the care of Mr. LANDFORD, a Medical Gentleman, who had been fetched by Mr; ---- to the spot from Wimbledon. - The following singular circumstance, relative to a Bill depending in,Parliament, appearS in the. Limerick Chronicle, published: by iNlessrs3. WATSO . N and MA.II6NY, of that City, on Wednesday, 29th !writ, 1807 • . ".The Bill now before Parliament, for local regu lations of St. Miehael's•Parish,in this City, Contains no : provision whatsoever for contributing to the ex ..pence or support of any of our Public Institutions; `vii.

He re - turned to .the Eleaots With -those principles which had heretofore gained their, support and . interest. He stilt 'C'dntirtueci a frieid to the wholesome Pre rogative of.'-the CroWn, and a su.pporter of the Aristocracy to, that extent which would riot exclude ,the democratießranch of the Constitution from pos• sessing its .due . weight. .Re was surprised when he heard of the - vexatious opposition which was to be made : at , this Eleetiorr by a Gentleman, (Mr. QAtt'EitT) to whorn he had no personal dislike; but be was confident that the Ele6tors would c arry - him through the contest with flying eolourS: He • had been always a friend to the refotrri of abuses, and 'a persevering supporter of economy', With re sped to the change of Administration, he had only to obs;rve, that his principles led him to sup pottt hose I:;Ancles of the Constitution which cer tain conc c ,:::ictl.,. aiightliave endan!Yered. He did not wish to intioduce . the Catholic Question at an Eleaion ; it was .a subject of great delicacy, and should not be discussed on •such an occasion ; he should refrain therefore fiom making any further comments. He had, thus . briefly avowed his public principles, and -should, with. certainty of success, commit hiniself to the determination of the Eledors. The Hon. Gentlernali then • withdrew amidst ap plauses and hisses. . , • - • Sir TuomAs TURTON (proposed by Mr. DONcAN, aud'seconded by Mr. PaEsToo., nest addressed the Eletlors, and reminded them that they had returned him by a greater majority than any former Member could boast•ol, He.trusteol that his condtift in Par liament-justified the',high opinion .which his Con stituents evinced that they had entertained of him. He was sorry that circumstances ,made it necessary for them to exercise their elective franchise so soon for their own sakes ; ; but as to himself, he felt the highest satisfsEtion in recurring to them for their opinion respeaing the mode in which he had dis charged the serious trust confided to him. He ap pealed,tOthern,,as an honest, independent man, un influenced by any consideration ; but. he had not supported the lite Ministers, ntg should he vote with the present, unless he approved of their mea sures: While he maintained these principles, he was sure of meriting,and receiving the free suffrages of the independent Eice!;tors of Southwark. Mr: CALyEaT, haying been preposed by Mr. FAVELL, and seconded by Mr. SOLOMON DAVIS, came forward and stated, that his pretensions to the 'votes and. support of the Electors of Southwark in in general,.arose from his having been solicited by hundreds among them to offer himself as a Candi date. This being a favour of too great importance to be rejected, he did therefore yield to their wishes, and now solicited the :suffrages of those who regard ed the. rights and privileges of the people. The pre sent time was pregnant_ with great events the Em pire stood in need of honest and independent men. Prerogative and corruption, peculation and oppres sion, were menacing the very existence of the coun try. The only security for our salvation was a fair and honest representation of the people. He felt it his duty to come forward at the call of his Fellow Citizens, in order to contribute, as their organ, to the salvation of the State, should he have the honour of :being chosen ; but, if he should b e even disap pointed ;a the hope of being their, Representative, he Would have the consolation ofrefieding that he. gave the Eledors an opportunity of marking their opinion of the late change of Administration by sup porting him, who was the determined enemy of the present Ministers. He had the highest resped for the Prerogative of the King, when constitutionally exer cised; he esteemed the Aristrocecy ; but these were only parts he loVed the whole. Though he had not commenced his canvass More than eight and forty hours, yet .he was led to entertain most san guine hopes of .success.—The Htgh Bailiff having .them put the Candidates in nomination, declared the show of hands to he decidedly in favour of Sir T. TUATON and Mr. CA v tirr . In consequence ,of w hi c h the friends of Mr. Too ANTON" demanded a poll, which was granted.

Yesterday morning a' considerable number of per sons assembled at the Crown and Anchor; in the Strand, ,io_order to proceed to the nominatiOn'of prOper c'enlidates for the representation of the City of Westminster. The Company was miscellaneous, and though there; were probably many persons who are really intitled to vote for that City,- there ,were an abundande of others who were not; and certainly no inhabitant of consequence sufficient' to take the lead on so important an occasion as the choice of •Representatives for the second City in the British Empire. A great confusion prevailed, arising from the wishes of some of the company to nominate Sir FHANCIS B Yaw. UDETT and Mr. Et. xonjointly, and the, endeavours of others to support each Candidate situ ly. Mahy persons spoke upon the occasion, but nothing was said worthy of recording ; nor was any thing done deserving of notice, except that this di vided bo.ty came to two different decisions, as they have announced in their respeetive,advertise: ments, one of which declares that Mr. PAULL has forfeited all pretensions to the honour of being co upled with the Baronet ; and the other proposes to have them put conjointly in nomination as fit to p 6: - fit(' l Frbiit the FRENCH , . . ..., • 41 1 -- . . . • i • Viarrh.; Aram 1i3.,---On the I. 4th the remair:::. of the Empress were interred with tbc Usual cere mony. ~ On the. same day the Emperor returned to Buda, *here several of the ,Archdukes have also ar riVed.',- The Diet was °petted i n th a t c i t y on t h e gth, the day before . the Ainperir left it. . . S'EALSUND, APRIL 21.—We have concluded an Armistice with the Prettch for an. unlimited ti: , Either party areaf liberty- to declare the Armistice at an end, by giving ten days,notice of the re-com mencement of hostilities.• . • UDINA, APRIL 10.—YesterOay morning, at four o'clock, the Viceroy of Italy arrived upon the Ve netian territory, accompanied, by the Minister cf by Count WArTENsr.Ears, first Aid-de-Camp to the King of Bavaria, and several Otticrs of the Household. We exped every day to see his Highness within.our Walls, for the purpose of re viewing the corps Under General BARAGUAY LtEtts, which is encamped in the neigll'oourhood. After the •reviewing of these, and the rest of the corps destined far Dalmatia, th e w h o l e A r.nv, i t is said, will break up, in order to pass through the Austrian territory in sthall columns to Dalmatia. SEMLIN, MARCH 24.—The Austrian troops upon the frontiers of Turkey are about to concentrate themselves, and by the end Of April to forM three small camps, viz, one in Transylvania, another in the Bannat, and the third in Croatia. Ain the 12th of March about 180 armed Servians passed the river Save, and entered the Austrian ter ritory, after having tbrced the line of denvrcatiu:2, where they fbund nothing more than a feble ad vanced guard. A numerous detachment of A. strians, however, very sooty advanced against tile Servians, when their Commandant declared he h a d do hostile intention, and delivered a letter from the Governor of Belgrade to the Austrian Otlicer., ing ordered to return from whence he came, he immediately obeyed. The last letters from Bel. grade exhibit a dreadful pieture of the cruelties exer cisedin that city by the Servians. It appears to be their design to massacre all the Musselmen remain ing in Servia, . We are essured they have carried their! audacity so far as to assassinate the Mohisil, or Turkish Plenipotentiary, who hnd arrived at Bel (Trade from Setnendria. The Jews have also come the objeCts and vii ims of Servian feroci ty : they seize them wherever they can find them, and many of thetn have been killed already.-- (Moniteur.) LEYD.EN, MAY 1.-- 7 —The 110 . 7jal Hague Courant states, that the Commander of the Swedish army solicited an armistice, which was granted on terms . of the most advantagious kind for the army of France and her Allies. HAGUE, APRIL 3U.---Yesterday his Majesty re turned from his tour to the Helder. He inspe6ted the Fleet in the Texel, and issued an order of the day, announcing the promotion of a number of Officers. (1% PRIVATE LETTER.) LOWER ELBE, APRIL 29..-4 t is the opinion of intelligent, persons that BONAPARTE is on the re treat, and the friends of the good cause are by DV means gratified at this : they think that nothine is wore desirable than that pride and miscalcula tion may induce • him to risque every thing, and keep a position from which a retreat would .be still more miraculous than the usual miracles of our age,' more especially in case Atistria takes the field, which is the general expectation ; and, as it stems too, the apprehension of the French themselves.— But it is rather feared that BONAPARTE will retreat towards the coast of the Baltic, where he will have a watchful eye on the English troops (for surely the wolf will come at Lit): Here, it is said, he can take a strong position, and keep open a coin municetion with Holland and the Netherlands, himself remaining at Mecklenbergh, near enough to the fortresses on the Oder to relieve the strong gar risons he may station there. Whatever velidity there may be in'these reasonings, one thing is cere tain, that Germany is at all events a safer and a more comfortable-station than Poland, whither 'he would never surely have gone, had he not exped ed the co-operation of the 'Poles, in which he has been totally disappOinted. This may be seem_ without 'a lynx's eye, even in his own bulletins.— Besides, his presence..is necessary- in order to secure the fidelity, of his-new Allies. He 'can rely on the friendship of ,none, except, perhaps, Bavaret ; Apd even here it is thp le . of Austria, not the love - of, France, which operates. In the meanwhile, in every part of Germany the French are detested, and the people are ripe for insurrection. 'We read of bands of robbers in Prussian Pornthnia, Silesia, &c. but that this is a false appellation needs no suggestion from me. The worthy Mayor of a Pomeranian town, who leas 'shot lately (you have already had the account in the papers), on pretenceof refusing to art against a banditti, was infamously murdered, not legally sentenced. Even the F renc h t h emse l ves, when they first required a sort of oath of allegiance from the Civil. Magistrates, declared it tneaet only that they who took it should not take part in any a& against the French, not that they' should in other ceSpeas violate the allegiance they had sworn to their former Sovereign. They were to be made neutral; not partisans : and indeed this is the neces sary policy in the Modern system of warfare. Io the present instance, e regular military forceeetered the place; and e aeting ender a Prussian commission. the Magistrate was called upon to take part against the robbers. They -are no robbers,' he replied, • but the soldiers of the King, my master ; I am the Civil Magistrate, and dare not interfere.' For this he was shot. Howeeer, it would be childish to ex claim against the injustice and barbarity of such proceedings. In the critical state in which the French find themselves, it is only by violence, rapine, and murder, that they can hope to terrify and quell the public spirit. • - THE THEATRE.—As Mr. KEMBLE IS still too much itidisposed to resume his theatrical tundionsi the part of Pro.cperio in The Tempest was last night performed by CooKE. It is not in Ills proper line of acting, but he acquitted hin:sell respe&abiy. Un willing to incur the vulgar clarnpqr that assailed the old and corre& pronunciation of the dissyllabie aches, he prudently omitted the line which contains it. There.was no Court of Aldermen held to-day • the Lord Mayor, after inspeding the re tur ns of 2 the Mealweighers, ordered the price of Bread to rertiait,
