same:

Upon this further assurance, I hare continued canvass
with the most flattering hope of success.
My pretensions to the high distinction:which I am thus so-
liciting, are not founded upon any connexion with either of
those • great interests which have hitherto contested the
tounty ; with individuals attached to both of them, I have
always*endeavoured to live upon the belt terms, but with
neither have I ant connexion whatever, nor am f now assnrcd
of the Support- of either of them: my Only pretensions are
those of a Country Gentlemen, who has always done his best
to'fulfifthe duties'of that situation:

Standing' then upon perfectly independent grounds, I do
not mean to ask your Suffrag-es upon any but indeptndent
principles. And, although ,I shall 4. all tunes, both in
public and in pr,ivatc, be glad tQ,give any explanatiOn Of my
past political life,: or of my present opinions I cannot give, to
any man a pledge, to support or to oppose auy paiticalar
measures.

With respect to that line of polities which I have hitherto
pursued, meaning most clearly to avow the strong bias of my
mind, towards those adopted by the late Mr. Pitt, I must
claim a right to act, as occasions may arise, from the sugges-
tions of my own judgment. I now, theref9re, place myself
in your hands, and rennin,
Gentlemen,
Your very humble servant,

PRTDAY, OCTOBER 9, 1812.

Further dispatches were received last night from
Lord CATHCART, dated Petersbnrgh, the 18th ult.
the substance of which, as made known from the
Foreign Office, we insert this day. They relate
to the battle of
.Borodino, the result of 'which, it is
again stated, was a victory on the part of the Rus-
sians, but do not advert to , any subsequent
operations. The contradictory nature of the in-
rtelligence in the 'l9Ol Bulletin,. stating the ra
advance °of the French to Moscow, in seven
days after the above battle, excited yesterday con-
siderable surprise, and it was very confidently ag7
setedthat'the Bulletin was a fabrication. We have
not, however, been able to discover
,any circum-
stances tending to prove that the. Bulletin is not
genuine,
.nor 'Can-we venture to deny its authen-
ticity..

•
'Without any means, therefore, of reconciling

, .
the two accounts, we mutt be content try wait
for farther intelligence. We shall only repeat,
that if .the Bulletin be genuine, it is. evident
that in enteringMoseqw BtiroNAPARTE has obtained
no real. advantage', arid that; 'from the clestructi9n
of the city,. he ,:was j 4st ~much-at a
,loss••for
•
• quarters for army, to shelter them from the
at
effects, of a Ilustzian winter, as before that event.
• Several letters were in town-. yuterday- from
-Petersburgh-,:dated the 16th ult. which make no
mention of the entrance of the French- into
Moseakv.

We insert day some further extracts from
.
the Boston Papers -to the 9th nit received. yester-
day, It will be seen that the result of the Coun-
cil at Washington was the,is!..nifig,of additional
instructions to th^ armed vessels„-of the United
:States not tO: interrupt vessels biikniidfig-td Ame-
..
-rican citizens -.sailing from 13 itish ports •to the
United States laden with British merchandize,
Conscittienee-of " the alleged repeal of the
British• Orders in Council." From this exprcs-
.
-sion it,maybe inferred, that the American Govern-
ruent had not at that time received any official
notification of the repeal; and M.A.nisoN and his
party would, of course, in their inveterate hos-
linty to Great Britain, endeavoulitOakeadvantage
of every circumstance to protein the-war: Still,
however; Wc'tbink,they cannot long continue this
-line of Conduct in opposition to the sense of- the
,:people, which is very. day more and more Mani-
festing itself in declared repugnance. to the 'ilea-
,
sures of the Government.

. .
The capture of General Hum, and his briny bad
excited a great _sensation, and tended to render
the wa:: still 'more unpopular. - • • •. -
