trates have done theirs; bin the publishers of the
above Notice have, inadvertently,, we would hope,
done us injustice in the manner in which they have
drawn up their statement.

Were the inquiries of the Magistrates closed in
time to enable them to quiet the public mind by send-
ing the result to the Evening Papers ? They did not
send them any such notice. The public will draw
the proper inference.

The letter from Malta which we yesterday laid
before our Readers came by the Lady Wellirgtor,
packet, which is now performing quarantine. V'e
have since seen a letter brought by the same packet.
dated the 22d June (the day on which the packet
sailed), which is four days later than that we gave in
our last. This letter, we are happy to state, mentions
that within the two or three preceding days the
Plague had very much abated, and that it was expected

It notices a similar fact respecting the sarneimalady

different attacks upon that part of the Allied Army.

CLINTON'S Divisions, about 15,000 men. The siege
of St. Sebastian oras raised for one day. The Portu.

guese regiment lost 200 diell in, the trenches.
The loss of the 200 Portuguese, mentioned in the
first pan of the above Letters, is thusiccounted for.
—During the first operations of Soutt, Gent.ral
GRAHAM had not only, as the last letter states, discon-
tinned the siege of St. Sebastian, but had embarked
the battering artillery ; as the train could, not have
been removed had the advance of the enemy rendered
it necessary completely to raise the siege. In the
mean time 200 men were left in the trenches, who
were cut off by a sortie of the garrison. On the
29th GeneralGßAiuma weindentand, recommenced
