to be mcrinced, in orderla prevent disgracefromfalling
on mere who, in the first place devised a plan replete
with rashness and folly, and carried into operation
at a time when we were not at war with the Power
against whose possessions it was dire&ed, and at a
time too when the same men were a&trally nego-
tiating with the very Power in - question for the re-
moval of all grounds of national difference. But
this pitiful attempt to degrade Officers whose merits
are too well established to be tarnished by such
, means, must recoil upon the authors. The names
Of DUCKWORTH, FRAZER, and STEWART, are still
as bright as ever,' and the people of this country,
while they view with indignation the despicable
endeavours to degrade, have only to regret that
the professional talents and enterprising spirits of
such gallant Officers were not employed by men,
of correspondent ability, who might have furnished
them with plans calculated to increase their own
honor and give additional strength and glory to their
country. But the writers in the service of Opposi-
tion are not contented with accusing the Officers
concerned in the affair of the Dardanelles and the
Egyptian Expedition of having shewn a miserable
want of judgment in the execution of the plans en-
trusted to them, but of having exceeded their orders,
and brought disgrace upon our arms by their own
temerity and folly. It is therefore proper that the
whole of these transa&ions 'should be investigated
by Parliament, and every document produced that
can throw a light upon the subjea. The character
of British Officers ought to be exempted from such
wanton attacks wheresoever they may originate,
for if such men are not properly protetied, we must
not expeel to see them expose themselves to immi-
nent hazard in the service of their country ; and the
consequence may be not only a loss of national
glory, but our independence as a people.
