 ami no part of tlie statement should contain any matter but what could be fully 

 proved ill a court of law, to which we render ourselves liable to be brought, when 

 vindicating any particular interest, or exposing piracy. Mr. Inglis staled in his 

 letter, that his assertions could be supported by written documents, which, upon 

 investigation, turned out not to be the ease. We therefore cannot allow any further 

 correspondence on the subject of" Tide Gauges," unless it is the wish of eitlier
