JJJgtfjtttlJte l ‘I -g>JLLi AUGUST a, out. 25. — iii —i ™r We have deceived Tennessee papers as late as the Bth October. They make no mention of the reported duel between fienemls Jackson and Adair. A gentle man- alftq diri- ed in this phice a few days sineft Troth Nashville—-he places no con fidence in tie rlinuir. From these cir cumstances we we induced to believe that the account published in our last, is entirely unfounded—and that JACtC HOJV* still lives, to add fresh laurels to, the chaplet of his jjeaowft, whenever ne cessity requires it. Several arrivals from Europe, in short passages, furnish us with intelligence both polilicidly andeOtnracrckiH y impor tant—which will fie found ib detail in the proper department of our paper.

The mltiistcfial prints have receded one step, and acknowledge that negotiation# are pending between gome of the confed(M uted thonarrhs and Ferdinand, in relation to lift revolted colonies. Feathers tell which way the wind blows. Reciprocal Civilities have passed between the Empress of Russia and Queen of Spain—ln which the former has conferred upon the latter the order of Bt. Catharine. The presentation of a petticoat to Ferdinand would have Korn strongly marked the sincerity of th« donor, arid have better characterised the gilt to the doneq.' '1 he Emperor Alexander has been ex tolled as a magnanimous Prince. The time is approaching- we think, which will test his claim (it* not alread y forfeit ed) to that title. Let Spain hold out a sufficient inducement, and it will be quickly seen that territorial and commer cial aggrandizement, when brought in competition with political rectitude, is not often impleaded in the court of con science by legitimate aovereigni if.

Meigs. We learn from a source entitled to credit, that the Seminole Indians have refused to comply with the demand of gen. Gaines, requiring the surrender of the murderers of our citizens on the St. Mary’s river Jast spring—and that they justify the conduct of their people on the score of retaliation, alledgidg that the whites were the first aggressors. A rup ture, with them ib consequently unavoi dable, and the drafts from this stafe should immediately prepare for a short campaign, as their services will probably he wanted. Mil. Journal Front the National Intelligencer. • O _ Among other incentives to a war with ?pain, urged in the public prints, a case is stated in the Weekly Register, as likely to * urge, to action’: which is, that Certain persons claiming to be American jutizens been captured under a Southern American patriot flag, and are JJOw 10 dungeon at Havana. We have had,- without doubt, many cases of justi fication of a war with Spain, but this is not <n»e of them. The United States cannot finder take to protect those of their citi fiens who voluntarily expatriate them saijes, and embark their fortunes in war nder a foreign flag. That the raman c Maeauley fell a victim to the chival which led him tp the plains of WVtn America to combat the Spanish . a ceß ’ would be about as. just a cause of iff.*?.*!** finrbidh is; referred to. The ‘ted States would not, it will be readi f- ly admitted, demand the emancipation of these prisoners if taken ip actual wai between us ana Spain 2 they have, it ap pears to us, even less right to demand it when taken in arms against a nation with whom their country is at peace. We are truly sorry for the fate of these un- Iprtunatc men: but we apprehend that no principles isinorc clearly established, thail that those who engage in a war, in which their nation has no concern, do it entirely at their own risk. Theirs is the honour uud the profit of success: theirs must also be .the peril and suffering of reverse. , A misapprehension something similar wc have noticed in another paper, res pecting the defeat and slaughter of Ma jors iVcry and Gordon, (American citi zens) and forty other jwmvumis, in the in terior of Mexico. It is spoken of as an attack by a Spanish force on an Amer ican fui •ce. This is entirely an error. 1 These persons composed a detachment of the urrny under (he command of Mina, which invaded Mexico. Overpowered by u superior number of Spanish troops, they abated the fate of that system of war, prevailing too generally in South Amenta, which refuses quarter to all ranks, olid often to all ages-ami sexes. Wf i*(; sorry to.see a question so im portant us that, (lie. consideration of which is only nqw about seriously (0 commence, con fused by arguments like those referred to, which have no bearing on it, and serve to mislead rather than to enlighten. Th» quest ion of the pari (he United States ought to take in (he 1 South American contest, is qne of deep importance, as every question of War bresehted to oar consideration must be. It might to be well considered before re solved, and not decided under the influ ence of violent, prejudice or passion.

Yesterday, after the Philadelphia steam-boat left the wharf for Trenton, Mr. Cox, wife, child and niece, and se veral gentlemen, put oft'ip a wherry, in order to overtake Iter.

Mrs. Cox, and a gentleman, whose name is not known, were drowned—Every exer tion was made to rescue Mrs. (’. but be fore a boat couid reach her from the shore, she sunk to rise no more. It is with pleasure we mention the name of Mr. Killim, master of the steam-boat Twins, who on his passage across the river pro videntially passed by, at the moment the boat sunk, and with a promptness that reflects great credit on him, threw him self into the river, and was seen to rise hearing in his arm an infant, only 10 months old, daughter of tlie unfortunate Mri, Cux.
