THE SU N.

SOLEtt QUIS DICERS FALSUM AUDEAT ?

LONDON, JULY 29, ISoz.

,Part journals of the 26th inst. reached us this
morning. The Ll6niteur of that date contains an
article which we are at a loss to reconcile to the
condua of the French Government, 'in haying sent
an Agent to this Country to negotiate a Commercial
Treaty. The article we allude be found under
the Paris !lead. Upon this subjeet we are unwilling
to speculate, except upon the most certain fou2dation,
but ,ve cannot help surmising, that some difficulty may
have arisen in the progress of the Treaty, to induce us
to abandon -which, the French Government probably
throw out the hint that ho Commercial Arrange-
ment will take place. To the discretion, however,
and to the firmness of our Government, we trust
for the conciliation that may preserve Peace, and at
the same time for • the dignity and spirit -that will
ensure the maintenance of every just right.
The French Troops have at length received orders
to evacuate Helvetia. •

Yesterday the PRINCE of WALES left London for
Brighton, where he will remain during the Races,
likewise during those of Lewes.
Mr. PITT went to Walmer Castle on Friday
last.

The same sense of justice, which some time since
(when the decease of Colonel BARRE was daily ex_
petted) was said to haVe induced Mr. _Alio moToN
to mention Mr. PITT as his Successor, will doubt_
less be exerted now the event of the Colonel's death
has taken place. It should be recolleftel that Mr.
PITT, when in office, forbore to take this place
himself, or give it to another ; but with..the view
of saving to the Public a pension of 30001. per
ann. held by the late possessor of it, he gaVe it to
him. No Minister has ever shewn a brighter ex-
ample than Mr. in that steady perseverance
s.vitlewlich he withstood every opportunity of con_
cenzrating any lucrative situation in himself.
On Sunday Marquis of SAL !sari enter_
tallied the Judges, Chief Baron MACDONALD, and

party were, besides the -Marquis and Marchioness,
and the Judges,. the Earl and Countess of, CLAREN-
DON, Lord and Lady MELBOURNE, Mr. LAMB,
and the Officers of the Hertfordshire Militia. They
dined in the Marble.. Hall. in which KING. JAMES
formerly dined, and the Band of the Hertfordshire
I\llilitia played in an adjoining room.
Yesterday a Court of Direslors was held at the
East-India House, which adjourned at fi‘;e
till next 'Wednesday. The Rev. RICHARD JEF-
iERYS and the Rev.. HENRY SHEPHERD,' are ap_
pointed by the Hon. the Court,of Dire tors of the
East Indi-a Company, Chaplains at the Presidency of
Fort William, in Bengal.
Yesterday Capt. Wm. ADDERLEY, of the ship
Deevaynel, attended at- the 'lndia House, and took
his final leave of the Court of Direaors previously
to his receiving his dispatches for the Government
of Bengal. This is the last ship of this season. -

The interview between the EMPEROR of RUSSIA
and the KING of PRUSSIA, at .Memel, is IQ he fol..
,lowed, according to the German Payers, by another

PRUSSIAN MA J EsTY and. BONAPARTE, at I)ll3.fel-

✓IIDDLESEX ELECTION.

The mongrel Jacobin-Whig Coalition which now
shamelessly tramples upon Public Principle, suc-
ceeded' yesterday in giving their. newly adopted
Child and Champion a large majority on the .Poll
of the day. The Friends of the Constitution may,
howeve:, yet triumph by means of great and im-
mediate exertions :- by exertions which arc now
peremptorily caged for, if they have any regard
for The blessings they have enjoyed under that Con-
stitution,, or any wish to make a stand against the
inroads of Jacobinism. We trust that the Friends
of the Constitution will not be less aftive than the
Emissaries-of Jacobin Whiggism, and that the only
remaining day of the Poll will witness the com-
plete triumph of the former.

At the close of the Poll yesterday the numbers
were,

For GEORGE BYNG, Esq. 3553
WILLIAM MAINWAVING, Esq. zSo
Sir FRANCIS BURDETT, Bart. 2791

On the 27th of July, T SAT, a set of Persotis en.
tered into a trading comps 1, having for its object
to build a Mill and Ovens, in order to grind Flour
and make tread at a cheap rate. The Subscriptions
to this undertaking were Two Guineas for each Share,
payable by Instalments of One Shilling a week.
—A year from the making of this Contract expired
on Tuesday last, and since that time upwards of
300 Persons have been ;)und to Swear that they
have, by this strange Subscription, acquired a Free-
hold Property, (though the Mill is not yet ereCted)
" of the clear yearly value of 4.09. over and above
" all dedudions, rents, and charges, payable out
" of, of in resped of the same, arid that they
" have been in the adual possession or receipt of
" the rents anar profits thereof for their own use
" Twelve Calendar; Months !l!"

'Tis indeed useless to make any animadversion on
the minor circumstances attending such unprecedent-
ed and illegal transaaions; it sufficiently explains
-the motives .of those who have so long kept the
County. of Middlesex in a state of anxiety and dis-
order by a protraaed Poll.
It is said, that the Merchants interested in the
Turkish Trade, have made inquiries of Govern-
ment to ascertain whether that branch of our Com-
merce would be injured by the troubles which at
present prevail in every quarter of the Ottoman
Empire. A Deputation from the Members of, the
Turkey Company waited on Lord I-lAwicEsßußY,
by appointment, on'Tuesday,- to obtain information
on this subject, and to request the accommodation
of one or two ships of war in case the progress it
by the Insurgents shoUld render it expedient for
the Company to remove any part of the English
Property -from that quartet. We are happy to
learn, that the answer returned by Lord HAWKES-
BURY, was perfeftly satisfaaory. His Lordship
assured them, that there existed no ground of ap-
prehension with regard to the safety of British pro_
petty in the Turkish Dominions ; but that as Go_
vernment-had generally kept up a small Naval Force
in'the.Levant, he would make the necessary appli—
cation to the Admiralty for the appointment of two
Frigates tothat•Statio'n, which would remain there
for the protcaion of the trade.

His Lordship also. informed the Deputation that
His Majesty's, Ministers had no reason to suppose
that. attempts, wonid be made from any quarter to
violate the integrity of the Turkish Empire. With
regard to the concession which the Porte is reported
to have made to, France, of the free navigation of
the Black Sea, his Lordship observed, that Govern-
ment had no knowledge of any agreement to that
circa having taken place ; but if the Turkish Go-
vernment should think it proper to make an arrange_
meat of this nature with the French Republic, the
Deputation might . rest assured that no /privilege
would be granted to. the French Trader, which
would not be equally-enjoyed by the Subjeas of
HIS BRITANNIC MAJESTY.

The depression of the Funds has been imputed, in
a great degree, to the Cash employed during the
Election. This may certainly be considered as one
of the causes. But many Foreigners have recently
sold out to a considerable extent, and the Fund'
Holders are all senitive Plants whenever any thing
extraordinary occurs. The usual artifices .to in,
crease the depression have, no doubt,. been put in
praaiee ; and a renewed friendship between FRANCE
and TURKEY, is now the great Bugbear that ap_
pears to govern the politics of the Stock Exchange.
Such is the estimation in which Mr. MAINWAR-
INGas gencral ehdrader as a mnn
is held, that many have polled for him on that
ground only, who differ with him in political
opinion.
The County of Middlesex have reason to thank,
its new Candidate for the introduCtion of more
turbulence and profligacy; in the coarse of a it'ec,
weeks, than most probably had ever disgraced it
before, and of which the taint will long affea the
morals and the manners of the lower orders of its
inhabitants.

The Burdettitts fixed upon a very proper place for
their meeting when they selefted MO,ORqATE, as it
is contiguous to that part of Bedlam which is
assigned to " dangerous and incurable Lunatics."
It is ,curious that very opposite.circumstances
should sometimes produce the same effea. Thus
Sir GEoltor: CORNEWALL, who succeeded in his
Elelion, is said to hive shed tears, and MT.
WILBERFORCE Bt RP, who was ousted at Coventry,
did the same, and certainly with better reason.
The Abbe DE LILLE has lately taken unto him-
self a wife. As he is very far advanced in life, 'he
perhaps only intended to adopt the plan of Mo 1.1 E,
and try the merit of his Literary Works by the
test of female judgment and sensibility. But the
Abbe, though unfortunately blind, has shewn mote
taste than MoLintE, in chusing for his critical
Arbitress a.y.;ung woman.
