I The Counsel informed their Lorilships, that the person, a man of the name of 'Frith, who was to ha e been brought fOrward for the purpose of swear. frig certain further circumstances relative to the adultery of Mrs, Cre.weovere it not for his severe in lion, had been.recently inquired after, in COMO quenkte of which, it appeared he was since dead, This fat - tithe Counsel oilier ved he could immediately prove by positive evidence at the Bar, did their Lord_ ships entertain the least doubt of the faft. No doubt seeming to exist as to the point - on the part of the House, a young woman who lived at present and for some time past with Mrs, Crewe, as cook, was then breught forward,—This Witness stated several circumstances to have taken place while Mrs. Crewe and Sir Harry Englefield resided in the danie house at'. Southampton, which appeared to duce a , strong suspicion of. the Adultery of the Parties—such as that on one morning rather early, she observed Mrs. Crewe to leave her own apart ment, ,yery loosely dressed, and go into the tied. chagiber of Sir riarry Englefield, where she remain. eel' for, some time she overheard them talking, being bear the door, and from what she could conjeaure, Sir Harry must have becn in bed. The Witness also slated that on more than one occasion, indeed frequently, she heard Sir Harry . go into . Mrs. bed-chatoher in tho course. of the night, and On two or three oceasionk, she observed him come out of,it early in the motniug. in the course of her examination, she added, that she often told this to her fellow.. , crvants, who, it appeared, reci procally: communHtted their observations on the subjett; that she had never seen Mr. Crewe, nor bad,Leth applied to, townie forward till that day, when -the application came from Mr. Crewe's . . Sohettor, On being asked Nrticularly to which of .the sere ',ants she, told it, she said, particularly to Mr 4, Hawkins, her Lady's own woman, and to Sarah fulteney, the housemaid, who had always nimie MR. Crewe's bed, • Their, Lordships thinking it proper to hear tfiese Witnesses who. had been already at the Bar, e>c,ltnined .. as . .to certain points, they wire ofdered to bc sent for, and , in order to give them time for their arrival, the. il.nhc, on the Motion of Lord Titua Low, adjourned farther consideration of tic bu,siness for:ao hour.

JIOUSE OF COIIMONS, Ti10r.3441C, JUNE 2S. Absenice utv the . .

Ws are %enabled to confirm the statement h our Paper •of yesterday, 'of the.safety of La Loire Fri. gate. His Majestfs Ship Hydra, which has ar. rived at Portsmouth, left her blockading Havre on Wednesday last. • • All the 'Ships at Plymouth, that were ready for sda, sailed on Wednesday to join the Channel Fleet, in consequence of orders received by express from the Admiralty. We this morning- received Pa,is Papers to the 4th inst. Their contents are uninteresting. We still continue to 11,:ar reports of Peace between France and Portugal;: for which we can discover no authority, but that of some Courier, or some Journalist in' the South:West part, of France. The Moniteur contains no Political Refle6tions on the state of EfighT4 and France—an article which its practice has lately taught us, to expert. Of Egypt we find no mention, except in the .7orttwa/ des Defenscurs, a Paper which is deter. mined ,on routing our Forces in Egypt. That Journal contains the following article :-. 7 " Barre. /ona, June 6. All the ships which arrive here, confirm the account of the complete Defeat of the English in Egypt." • The French Funds have undergone,no variation. We could yesterday bestow but a slight degree of attention on the third Political Paper in i the Mon:.. tear, and we confined ourselves to pointing out the double objet which it appeared to us to- have in view., The Public, will no. doubt have read with interest the whole of this' perforManee, It must have, in the first place, occurred to observation, that in enumerating the Islands and the Possessions acquired by us, and in endeavouring to establish that it was not the superiority of our Arms which bad given them to us, the French Writer was desirous of insinuating, that the Republic and its Allies had a tight to expea the restitution of these conquests, It will, no doubt, be also obvious, that in aireeting to repeat that the loises experi enced by France and Holland, had been the con. sequences of the misfortunes arising from Revolor. /jogs, the objet proposed was to wean the minds of men froM aspiring to any new Revolotion, or any change whatever bordering upon Revolution. Of these two obje4s, which the Writer in the Mani/env proposed to himself in the first part of his work, the former afeas the interests of the Country under the Government of the Chief Consul, the latter his• own personal interests. On this head 4 we have little to say, and, shall content ourselves with remarking, that the lesson which he seeks to teach the Republicans, and which the Revolution has taught much more severely than he can do, may be serviceable, not only to the French, but to every other people. As to wlatt relates to the point of view in which the Monitor wistes to represent the different Con. quests which we have made, we cannot adopt it, and it would be easy to show wherein it is erro. !mous , It the Writer had confined himself to oh. serving, that as England bad nothiltg more to take pm:mien of, (for, as has been justly remarked, Epp is doabtless considered in Ii rance as already in our possession) it was therefore to be expeeted that it should make sacrifices on the Alter of Peace, we should without hesitation have assented to the proposition.. Without any knowledge, as' may well be supposed, in what mariner Negotiations are now carried on; we have no doubt that our Ministers awe disposed to make those concessions which will not affeet our vital interests, nor endangee our sect'. riy hereafter. The ultimate advantage of a Sue. cessful War, is to be able to settle Peace on the solid basis of moderation, which cannot, in such circumstances pass for weakness, and tc) disarni;the jealousy of those Enemies whose resistance has been surmounted. Our Ministers have given too many pledges of their political wisdom to allow us to sup. pose them unconvinced of these truths, so well esta. blished in the history of all times and all Countries. They will be sufficiently patriotic to think more of the future Interest of their Country than' of their momentary glory ; they will be more desirous of making a laid than a brilliant Peace, and the great work will rather be distinguished by the temperate sagacity, than by the imperious dictates of.the Con. queror. WE yesterday paid an indirea compliment to.tbe Morning Post, by supposing it impossible that any other Paper than the Morning Chronicle• would Yen; tare to expose itself to the abhorrence of the Public, by going to the extravagant lengths, which the lat. ter went in its leading paragraph . or Tuesday. We now beg leave to ,reverie the compliment,, to apO. logize and 'express oar sincere contrition - to the Edi tor of the Morning Chronicle fiw the injustice we have dine him, and to assure him, that neither he, nor the Editor of any other Paper, will attempt to exceed, perhaps even to rival, the disloyalty, false. hood, folly, malignity, and impudence of the Morning Post of Wednesday—certainly not to ex. ceed, until Newgate has positive a ttraaions. We are not afraid of hazarding the assertion, that to this extraordinary Publication, in the Annals of Sedition or jacobinism, there will scarcely be found a parallel. Of the latter, it is peculiarly the es sence to treat Sovereigns with disrespea ; but the shameless irreverence 'with which the expressions, opinions, feelings, and biasses of our most beloved Monarch, are here reported, or rather invented, must have startled nen the Corresponding Society itself, as it must have shocked and disgusted every individual of every other Society into which such a Paper as the Morning Post finds access.—Paltrpc the Laws of the land may yet re.ich it. The obje&s of this splenetic. Jacobin, whoever he may be, that gave birth to this monstroui pro. duaion, seem to be precisely the same with those . of his Coadjutor in. the Aforving Ch).amicle r the additional attempt to sow the seeds of dissen. 'd . • tion and jealousy betivee n two considerable in wt.. duals, and the suPporters of either, both in and out of Parliament. Thii bve positiyely pronounCe will prove abortiVe-:—But there is one very reMarkable and striking difrerenee between the means employed: by these rivals as' well as confederates in mischief, to attain those objeas, namely, that while the one peremptorily asserts that Mr. ADD I NGTON was brought forward into power by Mr. PITT for the sole:purpose of making a Peace with Fr a nce, t hi s i s as peremprorily denied by the other, who tells as, that Mr. Ptrr's disrespeaful,,, overbearing, and imperious manner towards his Sovereign was the cause of his dismissal. But what are the motives in common with these two odious Scribblers ? And what are the circum stances which, under the same impulse, have thus, 'at the same instant, brought their malignity into ac. tion ? Certainly the hope, of late more generally entertained (which may possibly run too high), that the Negotiation for Peace was likely to have a fa vourable termination ; and _ not less certainly the alarm created by the late considerable del - cc:lion from the Opposition Benches, so creditable to the individuals that have so withdrawn. The same mode, it 'was agreed, should be employed to pre vent the conclusion of the one, and to stop the pro. . gress of the, other, viz. by endeavouring to create an impression of the incapacity of His Majesty's present Ministers, and to infer from thence their probable instability. On the latter of these points we shall only oh. serve, that we think too highly of the present House of Commons, to suppose fora, moment that so shallow and contemptible an artifice can deter any one individual in it from sitting according to his conscience and judgment on every occasion.— The Minister neither asks nor expeas more.—As to the return of Peace, we have eves been of opi nion,' and have repeated!y avowed it, that those who, throughout the War, have been the most cla. morous for it, have been the last who wished for its attainment, and would be the first to throw every obstacle that the diabolical spirit of jacobinism self could suggest in its way, whenever the road to its accomplishment might appear more practicable. Let the Reader but cast his eyes on the particular paragraph upon which we are commencing, and de. cide whether the love of Peace, or one generous feeling for the interests of his Country, have ever yet found its way into the breast of that man whose callous heart and perverted understanding could sug. gest and execute such a composition. to the distinguished Individual who is the objcel of att.tek it these 4:l l ;,Scallt 1141vals we aro quite sure that the same, magnanimity Which disposed and decided hitn to make a sacri fice of all that could contribute to sublunatyhap piness, in obedience to the, commands of his So vereign and the imperious call of duty to his Country, will ill t rnish him with an -impenetrable Egis against whatever shafts Malice,.Raneour, or PisaPpointment may thin proper to aim: at him. ' These he well knows he . must have to encounter, exattlY in proportion to the services he may render, and to the confidence with, which he may inspire' • the better part of the Community. If he be really the insufficient Orator in the House of Commons, Which these Newspaper Hirelings would wish to represent, how happens it that no attempt has there been made to embarrass, to brone.bcat, or to silence him, but that it was reserved for a Newspaper t 9 point out his insufficiency in that particular talent, which constitutes however but a small and second ary part of the necessary qualifications of a States. moo.? Perhaps the Gentlemen in Opposition, may '1 have-discovered, that vain would lee any attempt to shake WI firmness or to disturb his tempa these, while they 'preclude all . possibility (simian interruption to his petsdnal comfort, can - not* fail to prove powerful and. usefuliuxiliaries to those ties, those manners, that judgment, and that asii- • .dusty, the united efforts of which are now emploY ed in rescuing the Country nom the complicate', dilEculties in which he found it involved, and tybk 4 have been brought on by persons of the same tk• seription as those whose language we hare now been reprobating.
