The Sublime Porte has tranfmitted to the

on the departure of the Engliib minifter:
"Although the faithful relations which have
incelfantly cxilted between the Sublime Porte
and the court of England, could not have given
rife TO any coolneis between them and though
the Sublime Porte, juftIy offended at the orange
proportions which the Eoglfh miniifer made a
few days ago in conference it has contented
itfclf in replying that {" it was actually at war
with Ruliia and at peace with England !" at
the moment when we could flatter ourfelves
that after the mott mature reflections the En-
gliih envoy would delft from pretenlions 70
derogatory to the dignity of nations and the
honour of powers; that envoy has, or the con.
trary, renewed them in a note TO which are de-
manded written anfwer; and afterwards
without announcing bis departure, and with
out auy known cauie, he embarked fuddenly
with bis flute and fome of the merchants of his
nation in an Engliih frigate which was in port,
and which, cutting her cables, failed at mid :.
night. 1t was only in note be left, to he Civ
en- after lis departure to the Sublime Porte,
that he declares as the principal caufe of his
dhconent, the refuf1l of paiipott for court
err which he wiihed to fend to the Dardanelles.
As he had rot received on that location mega
tive anfwer, this fuppofed refuial could not
have been the motive for his departure and it
is well known that neither he nor any other
Eng!ifh fubjett have had caufe to complain of
any act by which their fafety could be endan-
gered.

LONDON, April 8,
We have heard it from, 70 many quarters, that it i.
mpoiiible for doubt the fact, that MIR Canning
was negotiating to form part of Lord Granville
government, and that it was on the point of being
carried into effect, after the Catholic Bill was
brot forward. In that cafe, he would have been a
supporter of that meafure (as indeed be always was
and now in oppolition WHEREAS he now fits on the
Treafury Bench, and mum be confaereda all enemy
to the claim of the Catholics.
We have good reaion to believe, that declarati-
on has been made to the new mnifters, from the
h'ghet quarter, that afoiu,ion of parliament us-
der no circumstances, fhall take place!
1t generally reported that our new miniiiers have
already projected Tome military movements, which
it hoped will at harafs the enemy and give iuc-
sour and uPPort to our allies. The trsnfpor board
has in coniequence intimated the ufua
for providing tranfports, that it will foon be at iber
~ to treat tor unlimited number for three months
fervce, and that the contract will not be limited to
-bottomed ihiPs. 1t certainly the opinion OF
many ditnguiihed military men, that while the en-
envy was kept 70 fully occupied by the vigorous move
nIents of the Ruilians in Poland, and 70 much
preHed by our brave ally to be obliged to march
TO the grand army every folder that could be remo
we'd from France this country might have taken the
opportunity to deRroy all the works at BouIogne and

which would have produced incalculabe bench, in
dePreiiing the arrogant views of the common enev
and railing the confidence, aud exciting the ENERGIES
OF other powers to affert their Independence. we
hope that whatever the project may be- minlter will
keep it a profound fecret till the blow be truck
