PITT had enabled- ris to carry on the war by
his Soap SYs7rE3l—if he bad said by his flimsy,

bombastic hswingoes are calculated to ruin our
once-envied country. They make an immediate
appeal to the self-interest of the aristocratic herd who
unhappily hold the fate of England in their hands.
What in nature bears so powerful a sway over the
sordid mind as self-interest? It is this bias which
draws after it the paracidal support of the prostituted
Prints, whose Editors•or Proprietors consent to be.

STATESMAN UFFICE, TWO O'CLOCK.
There are numerous accounts blown of an un-
pleasant complexion from the Peninsula; some of
them are even of a more disastrous nature than we

are inclined to give credence to: We stated on Satur-
day, that Government bad received dispatches from
thence,which were anxiously looked for in the Gazette
of that evening ; but Ministers, it seems, have not
thought fit to give publicity to any portion of their
contents; and hence it is-very justly inferred, that
they are of a disastrous nature. •
