unjust, illiberal, and indeed, ridiculous itnpu•

that of the Letter No. 5, no copy was kept by
Mr. GIFFORD : it was written by hiin Whilst the

have acted with great delicacy towards Mr. CAN.-
NINO throughout the whole affair, and they have
cautiously avoided saying any thing to increase
the strong sensation which his first Note excited,
led which the injudicious publication by his friend
of the whole Correspondence has not tended to
allay.—The Courier, however, of the 2(1 instant
puts it beyond doubt, that the public ition of these
Letters was sanctioned by Mr. CANNING it says,
" We are happy Mr. CANNING HAS PERSIITTED,
" his Correspondence to be published, because it
" prevents the possibility of
,any inference being
" drawn from his previous .Letter, that that .Gen.
