thought that the ‘secret of this new Crusade
will long continue a m)’Sl€l’_V:ll1 the eyes ofthe
people of all countries? No, no, my Lords;
Spainhas ‘conquered freedom_f_or herself;
Spain is no longer overrun by privileged indi-

'viduals ; she affords a spectacle intolerable to
pride; it cannot be tolerated ; and what is to
be the event? In Spain what was ineffectual-
ly attempted in France, is to be attempted,
viz. a counter revolution.

‘ Prudence forbids my» entering into more

ample developements of the dangers of war
with Spain; your intelligence and reflection
will supply the deficiency. But I havebaid
enoughto shew that it was my duty to appear
in this Tribune. It belonged to me, who am
old-—who respect Franks-—who am devotedto
the King and his Family—-to me who have
taken so prominent ‘a part in the events ofthe
double restoration—-who by my efforts, and, I
venture to ‘say it, by my successes, have placed_
all my glory and my ‘responsibility in the re-
newal of the union between France and the
House of Bourbon .; to prevent as far as in me
lay the work ofwisdoni andjustice froiii being
compromised by‘ rash and absurd passions.

‘ The King is deceived, my Lords; it is our
duty to undeceive him. He is told that his
people wish for war ; his people desire. peace.
He is told that the honor of his Crown is coni-
proinised by his not revenging the insults of-
feredlto Ferdinand. His-ancestor Louis XIV
did not revenge insults far more flagrant; and
yet in a question of dignity.Louis XIV is not-
to be despised; The happiness of France is
the glory of Louis‘ XVIII..and he_is worthy of
enjoying it. He is told that Spain, a prey to
anarchy, is dangerous to France. Let facts
answer for themselves. Is it true that anar-
chical doctrines have made. an alarming pro-
gress in France _? On the contrary, has_not
power made rapid conquests among us since
the revolution ofSpain.. _

‘ Let us not be afraid, my Lords, to present
the truth'to our King : liencver rejects it.

‘ My Lords, I will say only one word more,
and it is to ask you whether no one had any.
doubt, with respect to the secret wishes of Fer-
dinand VII. I permit myselfa personal opin-
ion on this point; I ground it on past events
but too well knownto me. Assuredly the king
of Spain was never more completely deprived

tivity at Valencay ; and I appeal to some of
my.Noble Colleagues to recall to their recol-
lection that atthat painful period neither their
honorable names nor their touching devoted-
ness could inspire that monarch with suffi-
cient confidence to remove from his mind the
impression, that the attempt wliichthey were

ing but an act of temerity of which he would
be the victim; and my personal relations with
King Ferdinand have authorized me to be-
lieve,that these refusals arose from a noble con-
fidence in the fidelity of his subjects, to whose
courage and attachment lie-wislied to owe his
liberation. This last observation, notwith-
standing the difference ofthe times, affords
you many opportunities for comparison.’

Erlrdcl of (L lelter from an ./Inierican gentle-
man in -Lisbon, dated Feb. 9.1;

‘The Cortes, after an able discussion of2

days, have declared, by almost an unanimous

er, with the intention of interfering in tlie.in"-
teriial political concerns of that nation, would
be considered as an attack on Portugal, and-
that measures would be taken accordingly; '

‘There has been no demonstration, by the
French army, for actual invasion, and doubts
are now entertained, whether the general un-
popularity in France, ofsuch an invasion, and
the apparent determination of Spain and.Por-
tugal to make an obstinate resistance, will not
induce the French government to pause.

‘In the discussion in the Cortes, several of
the members quoted the sentiments "expressed
by our President in his message to Congress,
relative to theimpropriety of any nation’s un-
dertaking to regulate the internal affairs of a-
nother nation.’ _

Extract from another letter. _

‘There have been several interesting de-
bates in the Cortes here in Lisbon, on this most
extraordinary invasion of Spain. . They have
taken preparatory‘ steps for assisting in the
general defence ofthe Peninsula. The army
is now recruiting, so as to be placed on the
footing oft814, viz: 40,000 men and upwards.
There is a proposition now under dlS_Cl1SSlOl),.
which will probably be carried, to raise 9.0 or
25 additional battalions oflight troops, and to

Latest from Spain..—The brig Caravan, ar.
at N.’York on the 12th inst. from Cadiz, with
papers from that place to the 6th March, and
from Madrid to the‘£’.0tli Feb. They furnish
no news ofimportance. The people were in
daily expectation of the commencement of
hostilities with France. Ferdinand was con-
fined to his "bed by indisposition,and the queen
was affected with convulsions. '

Mi-zxico.--Capt. Boyhr,‘ of the schr. Fly,
from Vera Cruz, has furnished the editors of
the Mere. Adv. with the following interesting
intelligence, which is to;the 21st ult.

On the 26th Jan. negociations commenced
on the part ofthe_Imperial~ army then beseig-
ing Vera Cruz, with Gen. St. Anna, the Re-
publican Chief. Many propositions were made
by Gen. Ecliavarra, the commander of the be-
seiging army, all of which were rejected,_unt_il
the 1st Feb. when the stipulations of St. Anna
were complied with, and the seige raised. In
the afternoon of thatday, Gen. Echavarra en-
tered the city, amidst the liuzzas of the peo-
ple. He was iiiet by Gen. St. Anna at the
and receivedwitli open arms,
and was t_hence escorted to the Palace. On
the following day he departed for Jalapa. On
his arrival there, a correspondence commen-
ced between him and the minister of war,
which resulted in nothing ‘of importance. On
the 17th, the great Republican Chief, Guad-
aloupe Victoria entered Vera Cruz_wi'th eve-
i-y manifestation of joy. In anticipation of
this event, the crown of Iturbide had been
burnt in the public square and the Tree of'Lib-

passeil on his way to the Palace. On ai°riv'ing
at the Palace he with St. Anna, presented
themselves at the balconies with wreaths of
laurels on their brows, which the people in-
sisted upon their wearing. A fewdays after
this‘, the‘ Marquis de'Vibanco, tiomiiiaiider of
the“Imperial troops at Puebla, decl‘ared,for
Victoria, St. Anna, and Liberty !

The Emperor, immediately on his hearing

of t-his, dispatched to_Puebla tlvo Commission-
ers, Gen. Negrete, and Herrere, Secretary of
State, to treat in some manner for the preser-
vation of himself and his Crown. On their
arrival, Gen. -Negrete immediately euibraced
the popular cause, and Herrere returned with-
out any particular audience with the Repub-
lican Chiefs. The Emperor then proposed
to establish the Congress and to proceed a-
greeably to its decrees. This was ‘refused, and
a demand was made"‘of his Crown, with a
promise of protection to his person, until a
Congress should convene, who alone should
direct in what manner he. should be disposed
of. The Emperor on receiving this, left the
city of Mexico, (after.armiiig all the Indian
population with swords, knives and muskets,)-
for Tiicabayou, one league distant. He also
formed an alliance with the Grand Cado, an
Indian Chief of the interior, who has engag-
ed to furnish him with ten thousand warriors,
upon condition that he shall be Emperor of
one half of Mexico, and Iturbide ofthe other.
This Chiefliad left Mexico for the purpose of
fulfilling the terms of the co-partnership.

On the 21st of March, a despatcli was re-
ceived at -Vera Cruz, dated at Puebla on the
14th, stating that the army-was to‘move from
that place on the following day to surround
Iturbide, who, it was said, was about to de-
part from Tucabayou for Valadola, supposed
for the purpose of forming a juiictiou with his
Indian colleague. - * ‘ _

' Gen. St. Amia sailed from the Island of
Sacrifice (one league from Vera Criiz,)on the
21st of March-, with a squadron of one brig
and four schooners, having on board 300 to
400 troops, for Tampico. The supposed ob-
ject of this expedition was to intercept the
shipment of a large sum of money, belonging
to lturbide, said to be on board a Spanish pack-
et which was to sail next day for Havana.

‘ The Squadron ‘lately purchased in the U.
States by Iturbide, is entirely hauled up, with
the exception of one gunboat and one schoo-
net, and the officers and men, with the ex-
ception ofa very few, discharged.

FROM CAMPEACIIY.‘--By the Samuel,Sher-
man, in 24 days from Cainpeacliy, we have
received the lastintelligence from that place.
In the province ofYucutan, aConventioii was
held, attended by the military and all the dis-
affected of Vera Cruz,- which declared in fa-
vor of the Congress. A complete revolution
had taken place at Campeachy-the imperial
governor had been turned out of office and
imprisoned, and a new one elected » by the
people. All the prisoners, who were confin-
ed by order of. the Emperor Iturbide, were
liberated, and nothing was heard or seen, but
rejoicing and illuniinations. The Emperor’s
person was considered very unsafe, and the
general cry was, ‘ down with the traitor, long
may the Congress exist.’ Disaffection every
where reigned, which was heightened by the
prohibition of the sale of tobacco in that part
of the Penin5ula.—Ballimore flinerican.

FROM PORT AU ritiNci:—Importa.nt.

A letter has been received at Baltimore from
an American gentleman in Port au Prince, iii-
closiiig the following Proclamation. The
writer says ‘there appears to be a difference
ofopiiiion here whether it relates to American
vessels touching at other Islands before arriv-
ing at this or not ; but certain it is, that after
the first of Miay-all vessels coming from other
ltslands that belong. to the Island, will be con-
fiscated, and the vessels belonging to the Re-
public are prohibited goiiig-to any of the isl-
andslvor to America. -

' R.E1’UBL!C OI-‘'I‘IAY'I‘I. ‘

Since the foundation of the Republic, the
rights of nations have always been scrupu-
lously -observed’; this government, always
guided by the love of peace and by the honor
which inspires ajust cause, has never conceiv-
ed any thing that could, with justice, create a
suspicion that it has been her intention to dis-
turb any ofthe neighboring Islands.

Nevertheless, it is in the greater part of
these Islands, where are concentrated the pro-
moters of the horrid. traffic in human flesh,
that the Republic has always had its most eni-
bittered slanderers. Their inliabitants, tor-
mented by the horrors of an 'zipbr-aiding con-
science, imagine that they *'« eliold Hayti al-
ways ready to annihilate hem, whilst the
Haytieiis, fully confiding in the Siipreme Be-
ing and leaving to him the attributes of ven-
gcance,despise the calumniesofeneniies whom
divine punishment willsoonerorlaterovertake.

Thus, laws opposed to reason and the true
interests ofthose Islands are in full force to
prohibit all communication with this Repub-
lic, whilst by means of smuggling, they find
clandestinely a market to dispose oftlieir pro-
duce. - Have we not before our eyes our gen-
erous conduct towards them, when in tiuie of
scarcity, they came to us for grain, 8:0. ? Do
we not see every day arriving in our ports
mérchandize from those Islands ? Why then,
in view of all this, do they not cease to vilify
the name of Haytien, and insult our national
character by their disgraceful acts ?

To so many outrages there must be an end.

We declare to all whom it concerns, that to
retaliate against the enemies and slanderers of
the Republic, all relations and communica-
tions by merchant vessels or belonging to in-
dividuals, between Haytivand the different Isl-
ands ofthe Archipelago to the windward and
leeward, are ‘rigorously prohibited from the

,first of May next. »

Consequently, all merchant vesselsthatsliall
enter the ports of the Republic, after the first
day of May next, coming from the aforesaid
Islands or colonies, shall be seized and con-
fiscated with every thing that shall be found
on board, one halffor the benefit of the state,
and the other half for that of theinformer.

For these reasons it is expressly forbidden
by the present proclamation, to national ves-
sels to communicate with any island or colo-
ny ofthe New World, under penalty of seiz-
ure and confiscation on their return, and also
under penalty of one year’s imprisonment to
the captain of the vessel seized, and 3 months
to each of the crew ; and whereas, from infor-
mation received, the national flag has been
outraged upon the high seas, it is also prohib-
ited underthe same penalty as above, to go
into any foreign port whatever, until this gov-

erty planted under it, under which Victoria

More Pirmn'es.—A passenger in the brig
Bee, from Cuba, informs that on the 1st of
March, at Cape Cruz, the. famous piratical
schr. La Cuta, captured the English schr.
John, from Kingston, Jam. bound to Principe;
took out her cargo, beat and robbed the crew,-
and threatened to niurder them, but when
night come o_ii the crew all made their escape
in the boat. Two days previous the same pi-
rates captured an American vessel, laden with
gin in cases, apples, flour, and herring boxes ;
took out the cargo and burnt the vessel. Our
informant could notplearn the fate ofthe crew
March 7th, the
same pirate captured the English brig Prompt,
from Kingston, (Jam.) for Manzinella, (Cuba,);
and after taking out part oflier cargo, consist-
ing of wine, lard, dry-goods, &Lc.,' robbing the
crew and beating them, threatening them with
instant death if they attempted to leave the
vessel. The captain of the Prompt beinga
Freemason, and the captain of the Pirate also
being‘ a Freemason, released the Prompt and
crew, stating that was the cause thatinduced
him to spare their lives. The Prompt ar. at
Manzfinella previous to the sailing of the Bee.

 

The brig , _, Perkins, of Keiinebunk,
from Port au Prince for Campeachy, arrived
at the Balize on the 31st, in distress, having
been boarded in the Bay of Campeachy by a
piratical schooner of about 40 tons, manned
by about 80 or 40 uien. On boarding the brig
they demanded-the money, and on the captains
denying that they had any, they stabbed him
in several places and cut off his arm- Some
ofthe crew then told _the pirates where 9.00
doubloons were conce_aled—-Upon which they
cutoff Capt. P’s other arm-—cut, off his thigh
-—put oakum,(dipped in oil) in his mouth and
some under him, then set it on fire, which soon
put an end to his sufferings. They. also thrust
a sabre through the thigh of the mate; and
robbed the brig oflier cables, ancliors, sails,
rigging, quadrants, &.c. most ofthe provisions
and water, and every thing they could lay
their hands on.———Jl;Ier_c. fldv. .

Capture ofa Pira_te.—The schr. ‘Scott, at
Charleston, was boarded on the 92d ult,off
Cape Corientes, Cuba, by the British cutter
Grecian, Lt. John Cowley, having a crew of
50 men._ Lieut. Cowley, stated that they coni-
pletely destroyed the famous pirrtical schr.
La Cara, on the. 20th ult. off the Isle ol'Pines,.
The La Cata en-
gaged the Grecian under piratical .colors, viz.
red at the fore,with :1 black ensign and a white
pendent, which slie__hoi_s'te.d on firing her first
gun. She carried 8 guns, and had on board
100 men, 30 of whom were supposed to have
been killed ; 8 were taken prisoners ; the rest
made their escape on shore, where horses were

cian had two men slightly wounded, received
several shot in the hull and "spars, and was
soinewliat injured in her rigging ; she had in
company an armed felucca andlfz small aruied
boats, and was bound to Jamaica with her 3
prisoners. Considerable quantities of goods
were found on board the pirate; part ofwhich
were saved,aiu.l part destroyed by the Grecian.

./Vicliolas Gorgol, the boatswain of the Span- .

ish schr. Ninfa Catalina, sent in by the U. S.
brig Spark, who was detained in confinenicnt
in this place, upon a charge of piracy, was last
week taken to Richmond, upon a liabeas cor-
pus, and carried before Chief Justice Mar-
shall. The nature ofthe evidence not being,
in the opinion ofthe Chief Justice, such as to
justify his commitment, the prisoner was dis-
charged. It will be recollected that the rest
ofthe crew ofthe Niiifa Catalina, were dis-
charged by Judge Parlier.—./Voifollc Herald.

The U. S. frigat'e”Coiigress Capt. Biddle
ar. at Norfolk on the 9th inst. after a cruize
of 5 mo. in the VV. I. seas, not having during
the voyage,fallen in with any piratical vessels.

A letter from Matanzas of the l9tli ult.
states that the Pirates had then a large force
atthe windward, and had established a Battery.
The English schr. bound to Nassau, recently
captured, had been added to the piratical fleet.

The brig Traveller, Phelps, commanded
and manned wholly by colored persons has ar-
rived at New Bedford frem a whaling voyage
to the »West Indies and VVestern-"Islands.-
On the 4th ult. an altercation took place‘ on
bo_ard'between Moses Sipple and Francis Ford
when the former threw the latter overboard,
and he was drowned. Sipple was confined in
irons, brought to New Bedford, and coniinit-
ted for trial. '

It is stated by Capt. Sands, at Providence,
that an expedition left Lisbon on the 15th of

Feb. with 1800'to 2000 troops, for Brazil, un- '

der convoy of a frigate and corvette.

.4 sting-ula7° cliscovery.—-Last week a manu-
script volume, ofbetween 3 and 4 hundred pa-
ges, was ‘discovered b_v Col. Edwards, of this
town, under one of his buildings. The book
is in a tolerable staté of preservation, and is
one of the finest specimens of penmanship
that we have ever seen. It has travelled the
round ofthe literary circle ofthis place for the
last four or five days, and it still remains a
mystery: the characters in which it is written
are unknown ; they are neither Hebrew,Greek,
nor Saxon, and the only parts of it hitherto
intelligible, are a few Latin quotations. It is
now deposited in this office, and those who are
curious in .these.matters, are invited to exam-
ine it. . — ’

doubtedly recelved ..more.vo‘tes-'th‘a"ri Mr. Per-

Judge Swift-may preventia choice, and throw
the election upon the legislature. Mr. Day
will probably be re-elected tothe office of Sec-
retary, in opposition to Mr. Seymour. _

, Imprisonment for D,ebt.—Three hundred
and thirty three unfortunate persons were con-
finedin the Essex county jail, in New-Jersey,

during the year ending on the 1st inst. for the

crime of being unable to pay their debts. Of
this number, 141 were kept in close confine-
ment. The aggregate" amount of the debts was
$35,400. “Tho can doubt but this is aland
.offrecdom—a land where misfortune is piti-
ed, and misery relieved ! What honor is re-
flected upon’ our country by facts like the one
herementioned! 'Will other nations any lon-
ger withliold from us that praise which we so
justy deserve for our benevolent institutions,
and for conduct so consistent with the princi-
ples which we profess to reverence! '

. C'om. Porlcr’_s Squadron.—Theschr. Plough-
boy, ar. at Charleston 4th instfiin 5 days from
Matanzas, where she left the U. S. schr. Pea-
cock, Com. Porter, with a part of his Squad-
ron. Tlie_death of Lieut. Cooke, (stated in
our last Lieut. Cox,) commander ofthetschr.
Fox, one of the squadron, who was treacher-
ously killed, ashort time since, by a shot from
the Fort, at the entran_ce of St._Jolin’s harbor,
is confirmed. Lt. C. had been ordered by the
Coin. to enter that port, to ascertain the cause
which delayed the return of a vessel he had
previously dispatchedto th.a_t place ; when the
schr. arrived iuider the guns oftlie.fort, an 18
pounder was deliberately aimed at her, the
shot from. which struck Lt. C. as he stood up-
on the quarter deck,_ broke one o_f his arms,
and passed through his body. The schr. how-
ever, proceeded up to the town, where the re-
mains ofLt. Cocke were interred.

Jlfore Jl!am'acs._—-A duel was fought on the
5th inst. near Philadelphia, between Gen.

Cadwallader of Philadelphia, and Professor .

Pattison of Baltimore, in which. the former
was wounded. ' The Spectator gives an ac-
cout of the affair as follows: ‘At the first fire
.tlie General received his antagonist’s ball in
the wrist, which went out near the elbow-——
the wound very_ severe. It was soon found
he was not able to give _furtlier satisfaction,
and the general was satisfied. The cause of
thi affair is said to be tliis—a few days since
Dr. P. was in Pliiladelpli'ia,wlicn the General
spoke of him in pretty harsh terms, and ques-
tioiied _his ch-aracter as a gentleman—-a chal-
lenge was the consequence—a meeting ensu-
ed, and you have the result. Both parties
behaved with the utmost coolness and deco-
corum on the ground. The General isa near
relative of Dr. Chapman, between whom and
the Professor there has been along controver-
sy, in the way of their vocation. Pattison
some time ago challenged Chapman, but he
declined the meeting. Mr. J. Meredith ap-
peared as Pattison’s second—Capt. Dallas, of
the navy, for the General.’

One of the papers states that the parties
stood 2.7 feet apart; the General’s pistol was
not discharged, as hewas in the act of taking
deliberate aim, when the pistol of the Doctor
was discharged. He now lies dangerously ill
at Newport, Del. (near the place of meeting.)
and it is feared a lock-jaw will take place, as
his arm is much swoln, and the ball not ex-
tracted. It is said that after the event, the
Doctor thanked his God that his antagonist
was wounded l! I
