by a late traveller, Dr. How ELL, in the following
wo-ds : " This Route I should recommend, pro-
videl the traveller can bear fatigue, will content
hlavelf with such baggage only as is essentially re-
quisite, and submit, for a short time, to the Turkish
customs and manner of living. This, I must confess,
would not be agreeable to an unpraaised person : and,
I should imagine, would not he- uttempted- with_
out-very powerful inducements. The advantages of
this route are numerous ; the traveller, at a small
expence, is provided with provisions, and suffers
41c4 delay in waiting till a caravan can be formed, or
escorts colleded : if he travels unincumbered with
any other baggage besides his mere necessaries, he
avoids being detained on the road by custom-house
officers, Arid offers no temptation to robbers,
,who,
in this country, are seldom guilty of violence for a
small booty."
The face of the country from Constantinople to
Bussora is greatly diversified, and presents the cu-
rious traveller with a variety -of productions, cus-
toms, climates, and romantic prospeds, which, by
engaging the mind, beguile the length of the jour-
ney ; it also abounds in the necessaries of life, ant
in that essential article water, the want of which has
been sometimes so -Tainfully experienced by the
zaravans of the Desert.

. Sir W. W. WYNNE requested leave of absence
from the Middlesex Committee, in consequence of
a letter he had received, stating the necessity of his
;attendance as an evidence at a Court Martial, to be
held at Chelsea, on one of the Officers of the Den-
bighshire-Militia.
The Letter being read by the Clerk of the jlouse,
2nd the Hon. Bironet having taken the Oath usual
occasions, that his application was not fri.
volous or unnecessary, the question was put from the
Chair, when

Mr, EAcwr,: Li—expressed a wish to be informed,
whether it were possible to adjourn the Middlesex
Committee during the short absence of the Hon.
Baronet, as, if nor, he would think it his duty to
oppose the Motion, from a consideration of the im-
portance of the affairs now under the discussion of
that Committee.

Lord MARSHANI (the Chairman of the Commit_
tee) stated, for the satisfaction of the Hon. Gentle-
man, that be had it in contemplation to move fur leave
to adjourn the Committee for the period during
which die Hon. Baronet's absence might be neces-
sary.

The question was then agreed to, and Sir WAr_
KIN WILLIAMi WYNNE accordingly obtained leave
of absence from the said Committee, for Monday
and Tuesday. next.
Lord MARsiiAm then moved, that the
.Commit-
tee appointed to try the merits of the Middlesex
Eleetion, have leave on Saturday next, to adjourn
till Wednesday, which was agreed to.
Mr. Secretary YORKS brought up a Message from
His NIAJIVITY, stating, that HIS MAJESTY hay-.
ing taken into consideration the circumstances that
attended the death of Lord KILWARDEN, the Chief
Justice..of-Ireland, and the meritorious charaiffer of
that Nobleman,. requested the House would take
into their consideration the best means of enabling
His MAJESTY to give an annuity of 12001. to the
Viscountess KILWARDEN, widow of the said Lord
KILWARDEN, during her life, with the power of
&ntinuing the same for such a time, and in such a
way, as would be most conducive to the interests of
his Emily.

His MAJESTY'S Message was ordered to be taken
into consideration on Monday next.
On the ,Motion of Mr. Lo'Nc, a warrant was is-
sued for a new Writ for the eledion of a Member to
serve for the University of Cambridge, in the room
of Mr. Pi rr, who had accepted of thi: offices of
First Lord of the Treasury, and Chance:lor of the
Exchequer.
The SFS AK E R informed the House, that as there
was a Ballot standing for to.morrow (f9r Liskeard,
we believe), he would take the Chair precisely at
half past three o'cluck, and begin to count the House
at four.

Mr. Rose, in pursuance of a notice he had former-
ly given, moved, that there be laid before the House,
the Evidence that had been taken before the Ilches-
ter Commit tee, in the course of their scrutiny.
On the Ouestion being put, a short conversation
took place between Sir Wm. YOUNG, Mr. Rose,
and Sir WAT 4 N VVILLIAMS WyNrie, in which it
appeared, that Mr. Rose had brought forward his
Motion, not from any disrespeEt to that Committee,
hit merely that the House might be satisfied as to
the nature of the evidence, as he understood reports
had been .circulated, that the case of Ilchester was
nut altogether unlike that of Aylesbury.
The Motion was negatived without a division.
Having disposed of the other Orders of the Day,
the House adjourned till to-morrow.
