" Viee-Admiral Sir J. T. Duckworth cannot fuf-
fieiently exprefs his anonifbment refpedling the con-
dud purfued by the Sublime Porte, in perfilling to j
detain the Midihipman and tailors belonging to the
frigate, under a flag of truce, after the repeated ap-
plications tithe Vice• Admiral to the Ottoman Go-
vernment for their releafe, and at the very moment!
that the Sublime Porte declared in its Proj?t, that
peace Ilia citified between the two countries.
44 The Vice Admiral is fo much the more particu-
larly firuck by this very extraordinary proceeding,
becaufe it forms Co marked a contrail to the con-
chal purfued by the Britifh fquadron in palling the
Dardanelles ; where, notwithilanding the aggrellion
was fo Wainly on the part of the fubjeits of his Im-
perial Highnefs the Sultan, not one of them was
treated otherwife than with the g. eaten kindnefs,and I
whO was not inflantly fet at liberty.
" The Vice Admiral relies on the juflice of the
Sublime Porte, and is perfuaded that thefe five fob-
jai's of his Sovereign will be fent back without the
leaft delay.
" The Sublime Porte mull be aware, that in de-
taining perfons as prifoners who were under a flag',
of truce, it will expofe itfelf to the molt fcvere cen-
lure of the whole world, by fo But
a violation of the
floms of civilized Powers. But the Vice Admiral
has not the leaft doubt, that in confequence of this
explanation, the five men alluded to will be inflantly
liberated. The Vice Admiral has the honour, &c.
