When Mi. Sti EitIDAN was recently nOritibateci a •
ft Candidate for the-County of WexfOrd, the .propo:.
sal was treated as a stroke of jocularity, and,.accord-
ing id the account of the Dublitt Alin:4 it was
received with " the loudest Writ's of laughter that
ever were heard at a Court of Hustings." ~.The•;•

The inflammation of Mr. PavLL's leg was Yetteri-
day so great, that his friends entertained the most
Serious aprehensions for his life. Straw was strewed
before his door for the first time since his' illness;
Such is the rancour of party, that even the merit
of Mr: WILPERFORCI, respe6ting the Abolition of
the Slave Trade, a measure which the Opposition
Prints so triumphantly applaud; cannot exempt hitri
from daily abuse in those Prints. As for Mr. I.,,isL
eku.st, he must never expea to be forgiven by
the Writers alluded tb; because he was the warm
and unalterable friend of Mr. PITT.
Mr. CANNiNGI9 great fault, in the opinion of the
Opposition Writers, seems to be his talents for
poetry; but they have reason to pride themselves on
their superiority to that Gentleman in one poetical
quality, as they excel him very much upon the
ground 'of fiction.

So much bas been said lately of Negotiations, and
the teports which have been circulated are so contra=
di&ory, that it is difficult to know what to believe.
It is, however, generally believed that the Nego-
tiations are not so far advanced as was believed.—
They say, that the Emperor NAVOLEON, always
anxious ,to employ all the means in his power to
prevent the qffusion of blood, had ptoPosed Peace
to the EMPEROR : 'of RUSSIA and the KING Cf.
PIIUSSJA, on very moderate terms ; that. theytwo
Sovereigns replied,' that they Were ready to treat,
but that their connexions with Great Britain' and
Sweden did not permit them to a& without the
participation of those Courts. It is said that
France did not oppose this proposition, declaring that
she wished for a General Peace. The principle of
Compensations was then proposed as the basis.of
Peace, and some general Articles were even discussed;
all these propositions have, been communicated to
tlie Courts of London and Stockholm, but their an-
swers have not yet been received. The letters from
Poland say, that these Communications have been
made through the medium of Aids-de,Camp, but
that no diplomatic Conferences have yet taken place.
Baron ST. VINCENT, who represents the Sovereign
whose mediation has been accepted, had been made
acquainted with what has passed; but it is feared
that the intrigues of the English Minister will frus-
trate the efforts of the 'friends of humanity. _ _

Nine, MAY. English Frigate, which has
been cruiting off this Port for some days, made an
attempt last night to cut out a Genoese Macre.
=About eleven o'clock at night four Boats; from the
Frigate, each with 25 men, attacked the PUlaere.
—They were received as we
_are accustomed to
receive the English in every part of the Empire.
The Polacre was so well defended, that; .after an
adkin of two hours, one of the Boats\was sunk, and
the 3 others were forced to retreat towards the Fri-
- gate. One of the men who was on board the Boat
which sunk, 'was saved by the Crew of the Polacre.
