TUESDAY, JUNE 2, 1807.

TnE next accounts from the Continent will pro-
bably bring us some decisive intelligence respe&ing
the fate of Dantzic, with respect to which we con-
fess we
.begin to entertain considerable appre-
hensi6n. The attempts which have been made
by the British Squadron to throw 'in 'relief.,to
Dantzic from the, sea, ' haye not, we fear, been
successful. From the progress which the Besiegers
had made at the date of the laSt accounts, it was.
'evident that General KALKREUTH would soon' be
conipelled to surrender, unless the place was relieved:
The intelligence which we received yesterday leads
us to believe that the Allies have risqued a general
7.-!elion for the purpose of raising the Siege of that
important Fortress. BONAPARTE continues to draw
reinforcements from all quarters to increase his army.
4 considerable number of Spanish cavalry have ar-
ri.t ed at Bo':lrdeaux, on their way to Poland.

THE form of the Constitution which has been
drought forth at Hayti, under the sanaion of CHR IS-
TOR E, the new. Proteihr 'Of that Country, seems
to beverywell in theory: but so -many similar systems
were brought forward in France; all of which looked
very Well upon paper, but ended in nothing but mis-
chief and. misery, that the Haytian—cOnstitUtion is
not likely to be more solid and substantial, The
truth is, that Political Constitutions of any value are
not the creation of the colle6tive wisdom Of any one
.vexiod, but must be the work of •time, long' elspe-
•rience, and those alterations and improvements which
can only result from pra,Stice and refleaion, Such
• has, been the progress of the British Constitution,
Which has rendered it the admiration •of the world
Ow mini ages, and which, we trust, is founded
upon such durable principles as maY bid defiance td
the arts of Fladtion, and the effortS of wicked inno-

vatian.

THE Public' had reasdn to believe, from an inti-
niation in an''Opposition Print, that some of the per-
Sons who funned
.the 'Committee for anaging•the
Eledion of Sir FRANCIS BURDETT, had, determined'
to come forward in ()icier to disclaitn the opinions
and sentiments which his Advertisement contained,
and .to reprobate, in the most emphatic 'Manner,
that daring attack upon our Monarchical Establish-
cut.

We are sorry to find that they are so tardy
u?on a point which
,deeply aireas their own charac-
ters; fur, if they continue silent, it • must be con-
cluded that Sir FRANCIS AURDETT expressed the
general sentiments of his virty. It is particula'rly
incumbent on. the Gentleman who '`appeared Upon
the Hustings, as the Reptesentative of SirFRA crS
BPRDETT, to avow his sentiments I-eapeOing the
infamous Advertisement ; for though the public
Dever beard of him but upon that occasion, •and
never May hear of him again, he must be so-
Ticitods to leave Ei good .charaaer behind him—
We appealed to Mr. 'SIigRIDAN before upon this
subje.6.l; and we are much surprized at his si-..
]eyce, 'because the memory of his friend I,lr. Fox,
as 'well as his own, political
;reputation, 'is deep-
ly affdeled.. Mr. SHERIDAN grinned,. that Mr. FOX,
• ,
it alive, would have voted for Sit' FRANCIS BORDETT
, •
and we twin call, upon..him to say, whether he
thinks that' Mr. Fox 'would have done so., if he had
Suppos'ed Sir FR.Ascis "cipable of ...uttering such an
.I..‘xdvei'fiseinenC? If the Committee, and Mr. SifERI-
:
PAN still remain silent, they must be content to have
the public impute 'to' them triose opinions which
every friend to the British ConstitutienA and to an
ex9.:llent Monarch, Who Made that Constitti-

able and independent conduit in Parliament, to limit the
