judge whether there was sufficient criminality to in duce them to order the witnesses into custody, or _ to dirc.at that they should attend on the day to which .the business would be adjourned.—lie saw no mid dle course. Lord. HOWICK inclined to the more moderate side, and would move, that the further proceedings be adjourned to Thursday next, and that the wit nesses be ordered to attend on that day. Mr. Su EIZ IDA N wished the Petitioners should have every. facility to make out their Petition, but he wished to know whether Counsel had closed their evidence. Mr. VAzisiTTALT understood that Counsel had already made a declaration to that effeEt. Mr. PERCIVAL observed, that if it was the inten- tion of the House to have recourse to severity, it vas proper a full hearing should be given to the Pe titioner. Some conversation then arose respeCting the printing,of the evidence, when it was determined 'that it should not, at least, until the evidence on the other side ryas also before the House. The Business was then postponed till Thursday, after which the House adjourned at Six o'clock this morning. THE GOTTENBURGH MAILS. (From the Telegraph.)

PASSENREIM, FEB. 3.—The Emperor set out on the 30th of January, at five in the morning; he breakfasted at Pultu,k, slept at Pratnitz, and pro ceeded the next morning to Willenburgh, where he staid the 3 I§t January and Ist of February. His Majesty set out from Willenburgh on the morning of the 2d; slept at Passenheim, from whence he again !et otii•on the 3d in the morning, for Altenstein . Flis Majiesty is very well : the cold is only at ts!vo , cieg - rees, and the roads are excellent. WAIiS. - AAV, J. 22. The Austrian Minister, VINCENT, is still here; his Majesty treats him with the greatest distialion, he grants him frequent audiences, which. last upwards of an hour, and al most every day .he has conferences .with • the Prince ofBENEVENTO. The Grand Duke of BERG seldom appears in public; it is, thought that the climate, conic: ,y - to his health, is the cause, that he recovers so -lowly from the illness which he has had, and whici was occasioned by the fatigues of the last ca., pa du Il'ord.) BANKs THE ELBE, FEB. 16.—According to the intelligence, the theatre Of war hi Po:- land appears to be 'entirely changed, and the French RuSaian Armies have taken up positions altoge ther new; the latter has made a quarter wheel, and the greater part of its forces are at present in East the French Army has followed, this move ment, and its left wita, since the bloody affair,of Mohringen, has drawn nearer to the centre, whose position appears to be near Willenburgh. The principal force of the Russians is. concentrated betWeeir the Lake Spirding and the Narew; it ex tendS its right towards Passenheim, and the front of this wing is to the south. . All accounts agree in saying, that a decisive battle will soon take place in , that neighbourhood. Vie learn by private letters, that' the garrison of Danizic had made/a sortie against. the Confederated Poles ; driven them back, and made several prison ers ; it is added, - that those of 'the prisciners who . were born in : Prussia have been shot at. D2ntzic. According to these last accounts, all was tranquil at Konigsburgh, where the Queen had also returned. (HAMBURGH CORRESPONDENTEi4, FEB. 17.) CONSTANTIN,OPLE, DEC. 25. -The following detailed account of the entrance of the Russian troops into-Moldavia . , has been received hete : " After GfAleral MICHELSON had passed the T,Zauube, he issued a VroclamatiJn, stating in, sub stance--' That notwithstanding the essential services which the Russian Court had rendered to the Otto man Porte ; and notwithstanding-the Treaty of Alli ance, by which the two Po\yens had engaged to live in amity, the Porte had, for some time past given occasion of complaint to the Court of Russia ; by infringing on the rights ,of the Barataires, and other Russian subjeas trading to the Levant ; by preventing the free passage of Ships to Corfu ; by permitting the vexatious condua of its Governors in Albania towards the Inhabitants and Government of the Republic of the Seven Islands ; and also, because that several Members of the Ottoman Mi nistry have shewn a decided partiality for a foreign Power : for all these reasons the Emperor ALEX ANDER has been under the necessity of ordering his troops to advance, &c.' " After the publication of this, Gen. MICHEL SON gave notice to the Commandant of Choczim, that prudence would not permit him to leave such a fortress behind him, he hoped, therefore, that Jae would make no difficulty in surrendering it. " The fortress was immediately surrendered with out striking a blow. The General likewise took the fortress of Bender, after an inconsiderable resistance, and proceeded toJassy, where Prince Moußoust had not yet arrived, and there arrested the French Re sident, M. REINHARD, and his family, and sent them into Russia. Accounts have since been re ceived that he has taken possession of Forsen, but that be has taken Gallaez and Brailow is not con firmed. " On the other hand, the Ayan of Rudschuck, IBRAHIM MUSTAFA, has advanced through Walla chia to 'met Gen. MICHELSON, and at Bucharest has arrested M. Kirtmo, the Russian Consul, as also the Greek Bishop, and three of the principal Boyars. JAN. 22.—The Prince of HESSE PHI* LIPSTITAL is making preparations to effect a landing in Calabria, with a Corps of Sicilian Troops, and in conjundion with 12,000 English. MILAN, JAN. 28.—1 t is said that all the troops which are in. Piedmont have received orders to join the army assembling at Udina ; this army is, it is said, destined to march throUgh Dalmatia and Bosnia, for the purpose of joining the Turks; and driving the Russians from Moldavia and Wallachia. Null EMBER G, FEB. 7.—They write from the Fron- tiers of Italy, that in Dalmatia the possibility of an attack from the Russians, on the land side, begins to be believed. The army intended for this enter prise is . still in Wallachia, and probably will be obliged not only to traverse Servia, but to cut its way through Bosnia, where the inhabitants are chief ly Mahommedans, and entirely devoted to the Porte. *DRESDEN, FE2. s.—The Contingent of 6000 men, which Saxony was to furnish in virtue of the Treaty of Posen, arrived here this morning, and will set out to-morrow for Posen, where it is to be by the 18th instant : these troops are organized in the same way as those of Bavaria, and have but little baggage. A report is in circulation that the whole Saxon Army will be put in motion, at least it seems certain, that the Contingent of this Kingdom will be increased to 12,000 men. VIENNA, FEB. 4.—The Porte makes great pre,- parations for carrying on the War with energy, bin as Peace with CZERNI GEORGE is not yet Made, and consequently it has to fear new hbstilities on that side, while on the other, the English Fleet in the Canal of Constantinople presents obstruMions to the passage of the, Asiatic troops into Europe, the Porte is obliged to assemble all the forces which it has in its European possessions ; the Paellas of these Provinces do all in their power to place on foot a strong army. . Our Court appears deter Mined to maintain its neutrality, notwithstanding the army is organized in a manner so as to be able to take the field on the first signal. Several Officers who have come hither from the,neighboUring cantonments, to pass the carnival, 'have left , orders with their corps to send couriers to them, if the regiment receives orders . to march ; the Austrian army at present consists of 8 Regiments of Cuirassiers, 6 Regiments df Dragoons, 6 of Horse, 12 of Hussars, and 3 of lililans the In fantry consists of 63 Regiments of the Line, is frontier Regiments, 1 of•Chasseurs, 4 of Artillery, &a. &c. _ _ VIENNA, FEB. 4.- 7 -The Court Gazette of this clay contains the following Article, under the head Tur key : On the 22,1 December the Declaration of War by the Sublime Porte against Russia took place : the gates of Constantinople were in consequence shut for some days. Since the surrender of Belgrade nothing'of portance has passed between the Turks and the Servian Insurgents.. The report of a formal Treaty of Peace having been concluded between the Porte and the Chiefs of the Servians is entirely unfounded. The Russian advanced guards have already approach.: ed Widdin, to which Paswan Oglou has retired. Up to the 7th of - January no action had taken place be tween the Turks and the Russians, neither on the Moldau, nor in Wallachia only a fpw stra,3Bling L 0 .111 D ON, TUESDIY, MARCH 3, 1807. Tins morning two Mails from Gattenburgh ar rived; and at the same time Government received Dispatches from. the Marquis of DOUGLAS, at St. Petershurgh. It is stated in the Berlin Telegraph, that the Advanced Guard of the Allied Army was completely defeated on the 4th of February, and the French Commandant at Posen issued a Proclamation also announcing the defeat of the Allies. It is not i❑ our power positively to contradict these statements. Government have not, we believe, received any ac- counts from the seat of war by these Mails, and from the date of the Marquis of DOUGLAS'S Dis- patches at St. Petersburgh, he could not, have been apprized of the event alluded to, supposing that it aftually took place. It is, however, proper to ob serve, that the Berlin Telegraph is completely a French Paper, and that no particulars whatever are given of the thiou, not - even where it was fought. It will also be recollected that the French clairrh'd a vktory at Muhl - Rigel], where it is Oerfealy well known that they were completely defeated. We are therefore justified in doubting the* truth of this account, until it is confirmeil by more authentic statements. The contents of the Mails will be found in our preceding Columns. THE Pispataes brought by the Cornwallis Packet are, we unclerkand, of a more favourable nature than was expe6ted with regard to the final deter. 7 rnination of the Turkish Government. It is stated, that upon the advance of the Russian Army into Wallachia, the Porte applied to M. ITALINSKI, the Russian Ambassador, desiring that he would order General MircimsoN to evacuate that Province.— M. IrAmtssict replied, that he had no power over General MyrtuELsorr,' who certainly would not Qbey any orders but those of his Sovereign. The an swer was not considered as satisfaelory; and M. IfiLiNsKt was ordered to leave Constantinople in three days. This :order the Russian Minister obeyed with great promptitude. In the mean time, the British Minister, Mr. ARBUTHNOT, urged every meansiti his, power to terminate this unfortunate difference, and there was reason to hope that his ef forts Would be successful. The Algerines, who were for a short time at war with Russia, have now declared war against France, and made peace with the former Power. , THIS morning the Gentlemen who wished to cone. traa for the Loan waited upon Lord GRENVILLE. It was settled, as we stated on Friday, that for every 1001. the Contra&ors were to receive 701. Reduced and 701. Consols, and that the Bidding was to be in the 5 per cents. The Bidders were as follow : 1342NE2 - - 12 • GuLDSMID .- 11 3 0 BARING - - - II 2 0 RosAturs - - - 17 6 Mr. BARNES'S bidding being the lowest, of course he had the Loan. The Interest to be paid by the Public will amount to 41. 14s. 7d. per cent, It is hardly necessary to observe, that this fißi"gaill is highly advantageoirs to the Public, and affords a most decisive proof of the flourishing state of the Vinances*of the Country. yesterday the House of Commons proceeded to ,n%e into consideration the Petition from Mr:Pnut r.-_spe.6ting the conclua of Mr. SHERIDAN on th Westminster Elec.:lion. It would be impr pe; fo' us to mike any comment upol the Poc ding's (which we have detailed at length), ai they are • of yet terminated, but we may be pertt)ittel to observe, that they are such as must give satisfaction to she Friends of Mr. SKERIDAN. A Message from His MAJESTY was last night delivered in both Houses of Parliament, importing that a Treaty of Peace had been concluded between. His MAJESTY and the KING of PRUSSIA, and that Lord HUTCHINSON in consequence had advanced the sum of 80,0001. to the Prussian Government. HARWICH, MARCH 2.--The . Beal/foy Packet, Nottars, arrived last night from Gottenburgh, with two Mails ; and this morning the Lady Frances, FLY N, and'the Diana, MA CDONOUG if, arrived from. the same place, each with a Mail. Dispatches of importance from St. Petersburgh came over in one of these Packets. Mr. PIERREPONT, from Stockholm, was expeded to embark in a Frigate waiting for him. The Packets with the Westward Mails of the 24th and 27th are detained by a strong North-east wind. Remain the Bonetta Sloop of War ; Acute, Ag. gressor, Escort, and Centirzel Gun-brigs. DOVER, MARCH 2.-A French Row-boat Priva:. tecr captured a Brig, between nine and. ten o'clock last night, so close •in Dover Roads that the voices on board both Vessels were distinaly heard by some Fishermen on theßeach : some wusquet shots passed, some of which came on shore. The Vessels were not half a mile from the land, and the Privateer car ried off her prize. • PORTSMOUTH, MARCH 2.—Sailed the Dispatch Gun-vessel, with a convoy for the Westward; also ' the Spartan Brig, with the Mary Transport, for Sicily, with baggage.

Mr. C. KE MELE gave a very animated and expressive representation of Aboan, and Miss SMITH was very interesting in the char:la - ter of Imoinda.—Mother Goose afforded the audience .an ample compensation for all their sympathetic sorrows during the Tragedy, and k ept them in a roar Of merriment for the remainder of the night. Yesterday, Mr. Sadler's' Yard, in Goswell-street, was attended by a very large concourse of persons of distinEtion and agriculturists, assembled to 'Oew the very fine cattle, sheep, and pip, and the imple.s ments, cloth, leather, and'Otber ustfuLproduaioris which were there exhibited.

GOTTENBURGH, Feb. 20.—This . evening a Cou rier has arrived in ten days from St. Petersburgh, bringing Dispatches from Constantinople, from Vi enna, from the Prussian head-quarters, as well as from St. Petersburg') ; he states that the French had received some more checks from the Russians ; and that the Prussian Army had been reinforced by 60,600 Recruits. Accounts received from Malmo yesterday, men tion that BONAPARTE, in one of the late a&ions, has been wounded in the foot, and that BERNADdTTE has also been wounded. GOTTENBURGH, FEB. 23.—The German Papers, received to-day, speak of a vi&ory gained by the French, on the 4th inst. at Altenstein, over the Russians ; but private Letters by the Post at Colberg, state the affair exactly in a contrary way, and say that the Russians had the best of it. A Courier has arrived to-day from Malmo, who brings an account that there has been some sharp fighting between the French and Swedes, near Stral sund, and that the former were driven back to their intrenchments. Gen. D'ARNFELDT commanded the troops who made the sortie ; I cannot get the parti culars to-night. AteAILS. Aare v ED-2 Cotttmburgli, z Dublin, t Waterford. Dot --r Lisbon, t Dublin, z Waterford.
