The following Note, relative to the sadden de-
priers of the English Ambassador, has been sle-
Evered to all the Foreign Ministers here a—

Though there has been no coolness in site
palatine between the Sublime Perm and Eng-
land ; and though the former. in answer to some ex-
mierelieerf demands made by the English Amebas-
mks, a few days since. contented itself with &elm-
* that it was at was with Russia, and at peace
with England ; yet, while ehe Ports flattered itself
that the said Ambassador, after stue consideration,
would desist from demands so very incompatible
with the dignity of nations, and independeat powers,
that Ambassador renrwed those demised% in a Note
which he gave in. and to which he required a writ-
ten answer; and then, without signifying his intended
departure, or the cause of it being known, embarked
suddenly on board an English frigate lying in the
harbour, with his attendants. mei some of Ole Ear
merchants here, and, cutting his made, sited at
midnight; his departure occasioned a gso.cal sur-
prise.
" In a Nete which he left behind his, and which
was delivered to the Porte after he was gone, he
assigns as the principal cause of complus*, the re.
fusel of a pass to a courier wham he wished to send.
But as he received no positive denial, this could not
be the cause of his dsperturs ; and it is well known
,9 every one, that nothing has taken place with re•
to him, or any other Englishman. which could
the least endanger their safety.
" Though the interruption of the mission which
the said Ambassador has occasioned by his unex.
React! departure, without having received an an.
sixes., requires explanation ; the Sublime Porte will
not depart from the principles of integrity by which
it is animated ; but as it cannot believe thut the
English Court can aa in a manner contrary to the
rules of justice, has delivered to the care cf M.
Hubsch, the Danish Charged%lfairer, and the Pro-
curator of the said Ambassador. all the moveables
and eff,:fls which belong to the latter ; and will
take proper measures for the preteftion and security
of the English who remain hi the Ottoman Erriptre ;
and diet the ships belonging to them may receive rm
"3/InT• orders have been issued to the OJica s o


Government. that they shall remain die same
state in which they nnw a►e.
The Sublime Porte, to prove its adhetersce to that
moderation and justice which has always been the
rule of its condutl, and which it is determined to
obser►e on this occasion, has caused the present Of-
ficial Note to be delivered to all the Foreign Minis-
ters, that they may transmit the same to their re-
spreitive Courts.

Tie retest chang• of Ministry is a salivS to

to advert. A crestion has not arisen for many
years of s,uch vital interest and importance, elm

circumstances by which it was brought about.

honoorable, and conscientious mind, is above

The effleoation given by Lord GmeiivlLLC and
Irsioonntlioricc must convince every m in a th •

verity stf their enflame, and lead the world, to be-
iiMMl that the cause lay something deeper than the

bate on "l'hunday night, thews the charafter

of the Agents in this business. We have been
taught to consider the Kiwi's Cabinet a sa-
cred depository of the great secrets of state.
Here is a cast which chews limn it may be

Ow most able disputant does not hesitate to avail
himself; and for a man to charge another with the
very offence which he is himself meditating, has often
proved a convenient cover. Accordingly, we find
those who were lying in wait to surprise, to entrap
the conscience of the Kist:, were the first to charge
that offence upon the late Ministers. In the prose-
cution cf this plan, all the revolutionary materials,
which ingenuity and experience could suggest, have
been set in motion. While the plot was hatching, the
prints, devoted to the parry,vried out—" Popery I

the flag ways were chalked with " Popery ;" it was
even publicly given out, and believed by the popu-
lace, that Viscount HOWICII, in reading the Bill to
His Majesty, designedly passed over the pa-
per containing the objeflionable nutter; but the
delusion attempted to be spread by these machi-
nations, having been dissipated by the lurni-
notts and forcible explanations of Lord GRett

of the new Men have changed theis ground, and
some of their Newspapers, yesterday, charged, in
almost diteß terms, these two N iblemen, with an

We have received New-York Papers to the 15. h

The plans of Colonel Bu ait still continue the sub-
js.& of public anxiety and general conversation.
Two of his accimplices are to be tried for high
treason ; but why is he. the principal, suffered to
be at large? The Americans begin to cusped that
he is en instrument of r reach intrigue; and we *ball
not be surprised if Caeir speculatioos shall orove

some particulars of tl:e recent revolutio4 in St.

Two Danish Mails arrived yesterday, with let•
ten and pape.s from Himburgh and Alton*, to the
22.1 iut. A private letter from the latter plate,

gives a very littering act:wont of the progress of
the Russlanormies, and of the diseorofiatre of the
French. The issuer are no! allowed to enjoy that
repose with which &ISA P A era prO.Ellit4 to indulge

The th zml.argh Corre3p,,ndentess, of the 21 st March-,
contains an Official Letter of the Ottoman Porte,
dated 4th Feb. to the Diplomatic Corps, announc-
ing the sudden departure of the Dneitsh Minister
from ConstantiaoplN the determination of the
Porte, notwithstanding, to protest the English and
their property, and its friendly disposition towards

England.

Two Oottenburgh MAiis arrived in town, yester-
d4y. By private letters from that city, of the
date of the 14th of March. we are informed, that
the Swedish Government has detained there a
part of the 500,0001. sent nut by this country for
Russia, which part u to pay subsidies due trom the
latter to Sweden : dime subsidies, it is said, amount

to 37.1,003 ris dollars; and to answer this sunk 64
