to the rnqjori.v to be the most expedient way to
prepare the remedy, which was accordingly done,
and submitted to the Committee; contrary to
his sentiments they agreed to state the remedy
without the facts.
Mr. Alderman COMBE said, t'tat there never
was a Report more attentively consi feted, or mote
unanimously agreed to in the tulles,. meeting the
Committee ever had, and the Report was waiting

fully felt tt!e tomploneot paid to li'm

also felt the yank- of rhe complime.it paid to htni lry
the Right lion. tie Chancellor of the Exchequer,
in omitting his name upon the present Committee.
It was easy to see ti e reasons for mak.ng three

ft was reported, last evenine, that a Dutch Paper,
of the 46,h, had been received in town, and that it
does not notice the defeat of the Russians, on the
14th, at Friedland. The account, hovever, of that
de'ra:, does not re,t sobly upon the authority of Tie
Nolte Estrwerdseary Gerrent, of the 23th ; it is
mentioned in Tie Hemirr:i Cerrespeseketes, and
•►as also repotted at Dover, on Monday, to which
place it is 'opposed to have been brought by some
smugglers from Calais. That these accounts, which
may be considere.' ail French, have greatly mg-
iAerated th-• oss of the Russians, we hope and be-

inconsistent. With rev. a to the capture of Memel,

a On the Sth, a trilling skirmish took place there,
is which the French had no °Nett but to mike a few
prisoners, in orskr to learn something of the strength
and position of the enemy. We then learnt d that
the Ilissiians had concentrated a respeelabl . force
about Cintstadt.

" On the 9th. the Emperor forced the Pasiarge

as far back u the plain of Glueiz, or Q•iela, while
