Who made choice of the said John Murray of Murraythwaite,
Vice 1 .teutenant, to be Przses of the Meeting.
The Convener stated, that having received a letter, dated the
22d ult. of the following tenor, he considered it to be his duty to
call the present meeting :—" sir, at the present momentous
crisis, when the privileges of the House of Commons have been
attacked in so open a manner, and attempts made to discredit
them in the eyes of the people, we conceive it to be not only
our duty, but the duty of every man who wishes well to
his Country and its valuable Constitution, to stand forth and
declare his disavowal and abhJrrence of the principles inculcated
by some factious individuals, equally enemies to the Country and
the Constitution ; and, in order to testify in the most public
manner these our sentiments, which we hope are those of the
Country at large, we request that you will call a Meeting of the
Freeholders, Justices of the Peace, and Commissioners of Supply
at Dumfries, on the I•2th day of June next, in order to take these
matters, of the highest national importance, into their considera-
tine, and to adopt such Resolutions as they may deem expedient.
We have the honour to be, Sir, your most obedient servants,

Which Letter having been read to the Meeting, they unani-
mlusly approved of their being called together on the present
occasion.
It was moved by the Convener, that the meeting for the pre-
sent sliculd adjourn to a future day, and the motion having been
seaontled, vote was taken upon the question—proceed or ad-
journ ? when it was carried by a majority of forty-seven to ten
votes, that the meeting should proceed.
The Przses moved certain Resolutions, which were read and
seconded, after which Mr. Patrick Miller moved, that these Re-
solutions be rejected, and, his motion being also seconded, it was
agreed to call the vote upon the question, adopt or reject? and
the roll having been called over, and the votes taken down, it
was carried by a majority of forty five to seven, that the Reso-
lutions be adopted; and of which the tenour follows:
'the meeting having a just sense of the present state of this
Kingdom, when compared with the calamitous situation of almost I
every other nation in Europe, now groaning under the Iron Scep-

that the hless.ngs we enjoy, and the pre-eminence in which we
are placed above other nations, is solely to be ascribed to a Con-

having received from this General the most positive
'assurances of his zeal, of his attention to his duty,
and of his wish to promote the good of his Majesty's
service. There was no person who was more inde-
fatigable in his duty, who entered more minutely
into the details of his command ; and by the mea-
sures he adopted impressed an opinion that every'
thing he did was for the good of the service. The
very eve of his flight he communicated to me the re-
sult of an examination into the accounts of the troops
under command. Assuredly, Sir, after these speak-
ing proofs, it was impossible to direct the slightest
suspicion against the conduct of that General Officer.

Copy of a Letter to General Harty, Chief of the
Staff at the Camp at Boulogne, from M. Renaud,
commanding the Second Brigade cf. the Fourth Di-
vision, dated Etaples, June 10, 1810, ten at night :
46 General, I have the honour to communicate to
you two reports I have received respecting General
Sarrazin's going on board an English brig this day.
One of the patroles, which I am ia the daily practice
of sending to watch the coast-duty, and the batteries
of the brigade under my command, brought belbre me
the owner and crew of the fishing-boat St. Laurent,
employed by General Sarrazin. In answer to several
questions put by me to them, they have made the fol-
lowing declaration ;
44 General Sarrazin embarked at ten o'clock this
morning, in a boat belonging to Curlier, that waited
for him at the little \Varren, and stated that he wished
to go to Etaples. Whim abreast the Dannes battery,
he went on board another boat, the St. Laurent, be-
longing to Gamier. He then ordered the person who
steered- to stand out a little for the purpose of fishing,
as he went to Etapiec. When the boat was at some
distance from the torts, an enemy's brig was per-
ceived in the offing. General Sarrazin ordered them
to put him on board her, which the fishermen refused,
alledging that they were prohibited from carrying any
one to the enemy. The General then displayed a
dagger and a pair of pistols, and compelled the fisher-
men to steer for the brig, stating that lie had the or.
ders of the Commander in Chief- to proceed to Eng.
land, with a flag of truce. The crew, seeing the
General's black servant also armed, were obliged to
obey, and went to the English vessel, where General
Sarrazin delivered to them, in his own hand, the or-
der brought to me by the person who steered the boat,
which returned immediately. I keep the original,
which I know to be the writing of General Sarrazin.
As all the reports and information that have reached
me on this subject only excite my astonishment, par-
ticularly from the knowledge I have obtained, that
General Sarrazin made use of threats to proceed as a
flag of truce ; I have the honour to iofot m you, that
I immediately cl,ange,.i the parole and countersign
for this night, at all my posts along shore, to the right
and lett of La Caudle.
In expectation of orders from you, General, I
sl:11 redouble my vigilance along the coastahis might

" The crew of the fishing-boat which put General
Sarrazin on hoard the English brig, are in pri,on,

General went on board as ith .the consent of the Com-
mander in Chief. - (Signed) lILNAUD."
Copy of the Report of the Captain of the '7th Com-
pany of Coast Artillery, stationed near Etaples :
" General Sarrazin embarked this morning at the
Little Warren, with the fisherman Camier, to fish.
Being at some distance from the Coast he perceived
an English brig. lie compelled the crew to put him
on board this brig, saying, that lie was proceeding

JUNE 17,L—The entertainment given on Thursday
last to their Majesties, by the Princess Borghese, at
the Castle of .Nenilly, met with the unanimous appro.
bation of all who had the honour of being present,
and seemed to give particular pleasure to the august
Sovereigns for whom it was intended.
A letter from Leghorn of the 3d instant, states,
that at half-past three o'clock in the morning, the little
powder magazine in the Tower of the Old Fortress
was struck with lightning, and blew up.
Between April 21 and 15th ultimo, 214 vessels ar-
rived at Trieste, from the different ports in the Adria-
tic, which shews how little importance is attached to
the English squadron cruizing in that quarter. Three
of these vessels were Turkish, from Polrasso ; two
Neapolitan, from Apulia ; 15 French, from Albania
and Dalmatia ; and the rest from Italy and Illyriurn,
laden with all sorts of merchandize. •
JUNE 18.-a--The Emperor presided on the 16th at a

Three English prisoners, who escaped from Aux-

/ JUNE 19.—The Swiss Diet met at Bern on the 4th
instant. The Landamman opened it with a speech
in which he touched on the principal matters which
are to come under their deliberation, and gave them
an account of the different negotiations that had taken
place with foreign powers since the last Diet. The
Emperor Napoleon had, he observed, for the first
time, assumed, in the treaty of Vienna, the title of.
Mediator of Switzerland. In reply to the letter ad-
dressed to him by the Landamman upon that occa-
sion, the Emperor answered, " I feel a pleasure in
protecting the peace of the Swiss Cantons, as I am
happy to reckon their soldiers in my armies. My
good-will towards them will always increase with the
services I shall receive from them." The Landam-'
man recommended to their earliest attention the means
of recruiting the regiments in the service of France.—
He expatiated on the advantages which his country,
and the Continent at large, would derive from the
marriage of the Emperor Napoleon. A number of
the deputies dwelt with satisfaction on the same topic.
" What prosperity," said Aloys Reding, ought we
not to expect from the union of our Mediator with a
Princess descended from the Counts of Hapsburg,
• whose attachment to Switzerland, in former times,
established the basis of its prosperity ?"
An article from Amsterdam, under the date of the
