GLNTLLMett,
WHEN 1 fiat announced to you my intention of
becoming a Candidate for the County of York, I was not
aware of the reafon which had induced your worthy Reprefenta-

as much as he does the recent events which have caufed him to
take this unfortunate ftep, and regret them Rill more as having
deprived the Country of the fervices of filch a man, I do not think
that the increafing difficulties that arife in the difcharge of Parlia-
mentary Duties ought to deter any other equally incorrupt and
Independent man from offering you his fervices. In that ekaradter I
rarnettly requeft the favour of your fupport on the day of nomi-

FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE.

FROM THE FRENCH AND DUTCH PAPERS.

PARIS, APRIL s 6.
We are fill without any farther information from
the Grand Army in Poland, and great uncertainty
prevails as to the firth events of the war, which has
commenced in Turkey. The accounts of the force,
and the operatitnis cf the Ruffian armies, are very
lcxle and contradictory. They began by advancing
into Wallachia and Moldavia, but their progrefs has
been arrefted, either by their weaknefs or their fears.
It cannot be doubted, but that the fy Item of the Ruf-
fians was to terrify the Divan,-and to intimidate the
Turks by an unexpefted attack. Such was alto the
objed of Admiral Duckworth. From the inaftivity
of General Michelfon, it is evident that he is not in a '
condition to etecute the threats which he held out
on his invafion of the Turkilh provinces. It will
now be in vain for the Englifh fleet to attempt to
domineer over the Divan. Even the aftifiance of
the Servians will afford but a feeble increafe of
means to Ruffia. There was only wanting a little
more firma; on the part of the Porte to bare re-
prelfed them. Their much extolled, but unorganifed
military force could not have !mg maintained itfelf '
spina a regular army, and troops accuftomed to
the fatigues of war. Now,.however, the vigorous
retolutions of the Porte afford reafoa to believe, that
the equivocal Hate of feveral Turkith provinces,
which a foreign protedion extended over the Otto.
man territory has created, will foon be terminated.
The Five per Ccats are at 73, and the Bank Stock
at 1115.
