Though it may be very true that the Frenc't
Tyrant is in want of Sailors, and thetel le holds
out rewards to the Soldiery to acquire naval skill,
yet, as it 16 not likely that the•Frencli Government
wproclaim irs wants through the medium ut
Pludllic Journals, which spread all over the world,
we should receive with great caution all nottfica.
tions of that kind, as it cantint be doubted that
every artifice to deceive us and throw us off our
guard, will be put in praCtice. We trust, how.
ever, in the vigilance of our Government, which
fully understands the charafter of the wily C,•r,i.
can, and will be perpetually) on the watch to secure.
us against his open hostility and his insidious craft.

We mentioned lately the discovery of a stone
coffin, containing the skeleton of a man, at the
Frigaie,Whini, near Leith. The Gentlemen con.
cerited have since thin continued their.researches
with great assiduity, and have been so fortunate as
to find three ancient urns, two large, and one so
small as to be contained in one of the others; they
are of very rude v..oikmanship, and scarcely at all
ornamented. They were found with tba mouth
down, and were filled with burnt bones. Another
has been found, much smaller than the
tOriner, but lying exactly in the same direftion ; the
bones in it seemed to be very completely burnt, no
pieces longer than two inchea remained. Nothing

Sir FRANCIS BURDETT then came forward On the
Hosting'', and spoke as follows :
4' Gt Nnat.sEsr.-,ln taking leave of you this day,
I can speak with more coi,fidence of final succesa
than I did yesterday, aod I do it on account that,
from my Opponent having only such a small maj oily
as seven, and the general langu. ir.of the Pull, it ap.
Fears evident that the forces of our Adversarief are
very nearly exhausted indeed. Aivither circum-
stance is, that if you make a general comparison of
the advantages of the Poll this week, you will find
• that we stand on very iiilvantageou ground. Mr
Voters, I have often observed, are late in coming UPI
and this I deplore on their own account, as the/
must be. put to a great deal of incotivenience in
coining up a second tidy ; arid also on my ovi 0 oc*,
count, as •the cause in which we are engiged tnilr'
by that means, have a less favourable appearance.
But I hope that they will not now delay any longer.'
Many have told me that they would c.ome down at
a pinch ; I must now declare rim the uliich is Nine,
1 do not say so tram the maj,iti y °four Adverskft
' which is trifling, bur becaus.l, Irvin the spirit cif Ini,
gati .n and trisiotous objection which our o,,ponents
manifest, it my voters delay tiil the last, they'll's,'
be brought !mld to the Sheilifs' box, and their
votes not determined till the time of polling is overt
in which case they will lose all the advantage 01.
their franchise for this time. For this reason lam
...
anxious that they would put up with sline incon4
venience, and make trifitng sacrifices, alld VIII
to secure that vittory early which will he WI"
at last. Another motive which I would stigge,it;
in order to stimulate yougo exertion, is,. the iligm:Y
and independence of the County, w Bich !NMI!.
that we bhuulti uniformly carry that spirit all
with us which appeared•at the commencement, an°
which will appear at the conclusion. It is not for,
a Caoilidate of this sort to secure the County 01.
Middlesex, and therefore I have .no &obi that the
contest will terminate to oitt satisfaction, and the.
E3tmer the more honourable. Ntl C4rd:date WSJ
ever any where Iresetit,ql on the same gr: un is as he
..
ja ; and I trust the Cculity of Middlesex will not be ..:1
the first. to set a bad example. And now I must
repeat that SAM nught to keep in mind that m lip:
