bad been justiSed4s setting out with tl,e assumption
that it was a criminal inquiry in which they were en-,
gaged. Brit if the object, with which•the Commission
was instituted, was a fair and impartial investigation,
in order that the House might • see front the result if
there were any grounds of criminality or not, thin-the
Commission was not liable to the imputations east
upon it by the Hon. and Learned Gentleman. It was,
int/a4,,iinpossible that the Commission could be justly
liable nanstysuth imputation, what it contained a single
individual under whose eye all the proceedings must
raft, and who had boa sltiposition to screen any one to
idiom a charge misfit appear properly to apply. But
it was evident that Whatever might be the constitution
of the Commission, or with whatever intention it Might
have beesrforniechafter the speech of the Honourable
and ILearfiid Gentleman, to agree' to the motion of
the Honourable Baronet would be at once to abolish
the mode of inquiry which had been commenced,
and' to condemn. the 'Commissioners for the man-
ner in which they had conducted that inquiry.—
If that (notion were acceded to by the House, it would
be impossible, .that to the seventy days on which the
Commission had already sat, a seventy-first could be
added, from which the public would derive the slightest
advantage. . And what was to compenrite- the House
for. thus suddenly pu-ting an end to an inquiry so far
advanced, and throwing a stigma on an assembly of
- honourable men stigma which no one could say
any individual member of the Commission deserved
singly, and which it was nut likely they would deserve
in their incorporated shape? In order to avoid further
delay, it was propo.ei to nullify all the proceedings
that had hitherto taken place, and to stultify the indi-
viduals who had concurred in those proceedings I
It was proposed to the House to start *fresh ; and so to start at
the cootio•lon of a Session, when there would not be even time
for the printing of the evidence which, the Honourable and Learned
Gentlemhn was so anxious should be produced. And this, tee,
when the alternative was a pledge on the pan of the Commission
to lay the report and evidence before the public by the commence-
ment of the nett Session of Parliament. He (Mr. Canning) bad
no
difficulty in adding, that if that pledge was not redeemed, be
should not feel himself capable, as an honest man, of resisting the
institution of soma other course of inquiry into the subject. But he
'nun say, that he trusted implicitly to the assurance of the Com-
misioners, that the report acid the evidence would be prepared by
the commencement of neat Session ; that was, as soon as, if the
evidence were on the table at that moment, any proceeding mold
he instituted upon it. What be protested against was, rashly do
stroying the labours of the Commission as far as it had goes, and
rendering its future labours useless. As to the precise COMM it
the Commission and the progress it had made, be was uninformed
with respect to the one, and incapable of judging of tbst other. It
was with a view to inforstati.on that be wished to have the evi.
donee, not in a disjointed state but classified, and accompanied
with he inferences and recommendation of the
lie not pledge himself to admit the justice of all the inferences
of. the Commission, or to concur in all its teconossodations.—
Ile, ignorant and unlearned as he was in all that related to the
Chen of Chance: y (which ignorance and want of kandog, bow.
ever, he shared with the great majority of those whoa the Ho-
noorabk and Learned Gentleman wished to persuade to take the
Minty out of the bands of the present Commission), he looked
Co the-Report of the Commission as the means of enlightming
himself on the subject; persuaded as be was that the Commission
wit composed of men incapable of wilfully misleading the House.
Above all, when honourable men had undertaken an arduous task,
be would not consent, without just cause, to render their labours
finless; our would.he be a patty to consign them to undeserved
int ony--(lear, bear). The House then

The fifth campaign of the Turks against the Greeks
may now almost be said to be terminated, at least if
the accounts in the Germanand French papers, as well
. as private letters, are to be relied on, and they are so
confirmatory of each other, as to leave little room for
doubt. 'Never, perhaps; were the preparations more
formidable, ind the dissensions of the Greek Chiefs
seemed an auxiliary to the success of the Mussulmans;
they appear, however, to have done less o.is campaign
emit in any preceding year. It will be seen by the ex-
tracts ftOm the Allgemeine Zcitung, which we received
this forenoon, that the army of net/SCUM rACIIA,
sistihg of twenty or thirty thousand men, has been en-
tirely routed and dispersed. A 'harassing march and
frequent Skirmishes thinned its tanks, and when it
,reached Anatolico, the Greeks attacked the Turks with
ttloat impetuosity which patriotism, united to courage,
cunld alone inspire, the result was the defeat of the
-qui prisoners.

Trieste,of theg4th ult. his hopes of assistance haveYeal
destroyed by the Greek Admiral blraulas, whose name
already stands conspicuous among his countrymen.
This celebrated Greek, with a fleet of forty vessels of
war. had the good fortune, on the 30th of April, to
meet, in the waters of Candia, that of the Pacha of
Egypt, consisting of ninety vessels, including trans-
ports. An action was the consequence, and its result
was not for a moment doubtful. The Barbarians suf-
fered a signal defeat. Three of their corvettes were
burned, one corvette was sunk, two brigs of war were
captured, sixteen transports experienced the same fate,
and the remainder of this fleet being dispersed, was
pursued its all directions by its conquerors:
The same letter contains information equelly import-
ant to Western Greece, for it communicates the de-
:traction of another detachment of the Ottoman fleet.
The Greek Admiral, SACTURIS, who had been entrusted
with the important duty of watching the motions of the
Turkish fleet )index the immediate command of his
Highness the Capstan Pacha, having received infor-
ellatiOn that a Turkish squadron of 70 transports. loaded
*with provisions for the relief of the castles of Lepanto.
and of the fortress of Patras, had been seen in the
neighbourhood of Metelin, directed his attention to that
quarter, and was fortunate enough to (all in with them..
The weather being stormy, the Ottomins made no
resiyance ; the whole convoy was captured, and sent
to Nkpilli di Romania. The following are extracts from
the German Papers received ili;s forenoon :

Letters from Prevcsa, dated sath April, contain the following
particulars relative to the advance of the Seraskier Redsekid Pacha
against Missolonghi, and the defeat which he sustained at Anatolie°,
on which occasion 6,000 Turks were killed' or taken-prisoners.
The Seraskier had set mat from Arta with 20,000. or, according to
some accounts, with no less than 30,000 men, and had already
preached Anatolie°. Meantime, daily actions took place with the
Greeks, who were retreating, and who had laid waste everything
ea
their way. In these actions, the Turks bad the disadvantage ; and
according to all the accounts, they were already exhausted eand
destitute of previsions and ammunitina when they arrived in the en-
virons of Anatelico. On the 17th of April, the Greeks attacked,
with the greatest impeinosity, Redschid Puha, who was in /Want of
