London, Aug 4. A correspondent informs us that the easiest
method by which the Ministry could get rid of Mr. Wilkes,
would be by appointing him Ambassador to Constantinople or
Paris. In the first case it is possible he would soon give
up the ghost in the midst of the excesses of the Seraglio;
and in the other he would certainly fall a prey to the
resentment of a French dancing master, who has sworn that he
will give Mr. Wilkes a coup d'epee, for robbing him of his
mistress.
