of Alderman Hankey, having seen the Questions addressed
to him in the Public Pipers, answer to the first, That Al-
derman Hankey did not divide in favour of Lord Howiek's
Bill ;Or the admitsion of Roman,Catholics into power. The
Alderman, with the majority of the Corporation, wished for
the fullest information on a Question of su great magnitude,
previous to she decision of the Court, and therefore voted for
the postpoliernent of Mr. Deputy Birch's Motion on Thurs-
day the sth of March. -
The second Question is so general, and Of such an unde-
fined nature that the Committee are of opinion that 'it does
not admit of a precise answer; but Alderman Haukey is not
a Member, nor was Ile ever at any of the Meetings of the

counts which, had previously,re.athed us, of the De-
feat of the Swedes, and of the Armistice which was

Armistice, which gives the French possession of the
Islands of ITsedern and Wollin, and thereby the com-

No accounts 'have reached Government from Po-
land. There was 'an idle rumour yesterday that
BOSTAPARTE had been killed in battle : it however
obtained no credit.

Several foreigners ilAve, we find, been -recently
taken into custody on suspicion of being concerned
in, plans inimical to our Government, and some of
them have very properly been already sent out of the
Kingdom. Among those who are retained is said
to be'the Secretary of a 'foreign Military Chantaer.
who lately returned frdm abroad. He may have
been deceived by those in bis'confidence, but we.
cannot believe that he is implioated in
.any,transac.
tions injurious to Great Britain and its Allies.

The Gazette of la:it night contains the Official
Details of the Proceedings of the. British Fleet under
the Command of Admiral DUCKWORTH, from tile
time it passed 'the Dardanelles until it returned to
Tenedoi. These Dispatches, we are. s:44y to say,
do not alter the opinion which we.had previously
formed upon this subjea, We think, that th)ite

Ad.ninistration ihewed a great want of judgment
and f)resight in sending Admiral DUCKWORTH
up.on an Expedition of such immense importance
without any land forces. It is true, that troops
could not have been employed with any chance of
success, agairth so very populous a City as Con:-

stantinople, at least not such a number as Admiral
DocxwoßTH could have taken with hiM;' but they
might have been of the most essential service in
taking possession, of the Forts which command the
Passage of the Dardanelles, and destroying them.
Admiral DUCKWORTH takes great pains to shew, that
he could not bring his Fleet to ad a;_:,,ainst Constan-
tinople until the Turks had been able to place it in a
most formidable state of defence; :Wehave not the
slightest, doubt that the difficulties he;hacl,to contend
against were insuperable. 'We never' fora 'moment
ques-tioned the professjonal skill or the courage Oc
the gallant Admiral ; 'but if the Letters atHbuted td
him in the lifoniteut be correft, we think he
ed great want of 'skill as a Negotiator. If a strong
current and a dead calm prevented him from bring=
ing his Fleet near 'Constantinople, the Turks must
have been as perfeOly aware of those circumstances
as be was, and, therefore his threats could not intimi
date, but certainly must tend to irritate them. We are

sorry to, find that, our loss 'in killed and wounded is
much more considerable than we at first were led to
apprehend ; but much as we lament the loss of any

of our brave Seqmen, we are, we confess, more con-
cerned for the loss of reputation whiCh we hard
sustained upon this occasion.

The Emperor of AusparA has returned to the Diet
at Buda, after his late'short but melancholy visit to
Vienna. We should suppose that something more
important than the routine business of the States of
Hungary will be transacted at that meeting_ 4
The Mercury, DAVISON, from Memel, arrived in
Leith Roads on Friday evening. She sailed from

his Lordship's seasoning is by no means equal to
the other merits of his compOsitian, and our respect
for his charaaer induces uS, to wish that he had not

Justify, and in which ve believe a great majority of
the people entertain` sentiments wholly in opposition
