- GENTLEMEN. ' •
THA.TEVER of public or of .private inconve,-.
V v nience may arise from so sudden a Dissolution of
Parliament, .it gives to. me personally no regret, because
it brings (though temporarily) into praclice a principle
long settled in my mind, that the Appeal' of the Reprel.
sentatives to their Constituents should be, more frequent
than by. , they are. In the last three Parliaments
.you have been, .pleased honour, me. with your Loa&
deuce ; :during 'that time it has been my fortuatiJo,have
been sometimes the opposer and sometimes the •supporter
of Ministers ; hut' in neither ease have 1 ever felt any dread of
their power, or benefit from their tavour ; the Public Interest
has been,the only nintive that eves aauated my conduct, and.
a continuance of your. Confidence 'the only ReCompence. 1
. .
looked to.- • I 'throw myself again upOn your consideratieh,
and in soliciting most earnestly as 1 do the fav,iir of your
Votes to return rac.as one of your Representatives in the next
-Parliament, I repeat to. yOu my'assurances hf an una!terable'
attichnient to the Constitution of 031- Country, and I promise
you a continuance of that Independence, which; I trust, has
hitherto man-nested itself in my public conduct.
%Vitii great respect, I have the Honour to be,
tient ienien,- • -
Your much obliged and faithful humble Servant,

LONDON,

FRIDAY, MAY 1, 1807.

A Goftenburet Mail arrived just as this Paptr
was on the, point of being put to Press, but it
contains no intellitence of importance. No adion
has taken place between the hostile Armies.

WE have this day extra6lecl the whole of the Cor-
respondence between- Admiral DUCKWORTH and the
Porte, which appeared in the Foreign Papers. We
are sorry to say that these Letters tend very strongly
to confirm the opinion which we have entertained,
opposition to some of
,our Contemporaries, viz.
That Admiral DUCKWORTH had failed his 'at-
tetnpt to conclude an Arrangernent with the
Turkish Government. We shall forbear_any further
observations upon this important subje6t, until the
fats are before us in an- Official shape.

•No intelligence whatever reached, Town this
morning froin the Continent, but the rualours of
Negotiations still continue. There cm be little
doubt that ,BONai'ARTE will persevere in his at.-:
6• , .
tempts to induce the Emperor of Rossia to en-
ter into a Negotiation ; and 'we are not, .we con-
fess,-without apprehensions that he may succeed.-::.:
His It4erial Majesty has not, curing the whole of
the Con test,received any assistance from this Cquntry,
except a few arms, and those sent at a very late Period.
ITherewere, besides; otber.causes, to which we have
alluded on former occasion 4 which created'a consi-
derable degree of coolnes bet Ween the Courts
of St. Petersburgh,and London. The present Mi-
nisters have adopted a Sys'terd tQta:ly differ.ent.frorn,
that of their Predecessors. , The Marquis of
DOUGLAS has been recalled from St. Petersburgh,
and every preparation - is making 'to enable. this
Country to a ffot* her Allies effe&ual .assistance. We
sincerely hope that the artifices of BONAPARTZ may
not have prevailed before the intelligence of this
favourable change in the disposition 0f the Govern.,
ment of thiS Country could reach St. Petersbuigh.

Yesterday rnorning Hts MAJESTY, PRINCESSES
SOPHIA, AUGUSTA, and Amci..lA,. and the DoKE of
SUSSEX, attended. by Lady GeoaotAttA 13ULKE
LEY, Generals 'GASCOYNF,, FiTzac-Y, and Colonel

HER MAJESTY, PRINCESSES ELIZABETH, and
MARY, with her usual attendantS, took an airing in
Her Majesty's baronche and

and returned at two o'clock.
His MAJESTY came to town ,this day.

13y the Leeward Island .Mail we are 'informed- of
the capture of the Asia, from London to Surinam; la-
den with Government Stores, by A French Privateer,
after a smart a6tion, in which a.Captain of the"Arrity
was killed, and Lieutenant-Colonel Sir J. Wool,
wounded, on our side. The Prize was carried by
the Enemy into Guadaloupe. The neglea. of the
late Administration, in respe& to Convoys; is severe-
ly reprobated in all parts Of our West India PO&'se;. "
